I’ve been staying at the Surfer since I was little and this was the first time as an fault I stayed. The two men working the desk were amazing! If you’re looking for a beach front hotel with everything walking distance this is the place to stay! Also if you like going out at night definitely recommend theirs lots of clubs and places open. Found out my grandma has been taking my mom here when she was little to! The restaurant attatched is yummy and the views during the day are serene looking out at the ocean. See you soon Surfer!
