We are a small girls group of 5. We arrived at 3 and we're allowed our room right away. Loved that. Gated community, loved that. Staff amazing,loved that. The view of the water,loved that. Internet down for 1 day,understandable. Staff came to help next day,loved that. Carts at door for groceries,loved that. In overall we loved our stay. With that being said our room was dirty to the point of gross. There was a very large dark stain on the carpet coming from under the couch. When we opened the couch to make the bed the bed liner had brown stuff smeared all over it. There was crackers under on the floor. Some throw pillows also had brown smears. We had to call for a new bed liner. There wasn't one on hand so had to use a king size. I do feel if the carpet was better maintained and a better overall check of the room we would not have felt so harsh about the room.

Kimberli,
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that many aspects of your stay, from the early check-in to the beautiful view and helpful staff, met your expectations. However, we’re truly sorry about the cleanliness issues you encountered in the condo. This is certainly not the standard we strive for, and we’ll be addressing this with our team to ensure it doesn’t happen again. Your comments are invaluable in helping us improve, and we hope you’ll consider staying with us again so we can provide you with a flawless experience.

Our Condo was on the seventh floor and we had a fantastic view. The condo was very, very clean and met all our needs since you basically just use it to sleep and spend the day outside.. we did feel that it was in desperate need of updating both the furniture and different areas of the condo that needed touchup paint or new wallpaper in the bathrooms. The grout in the showers needed to be grouted. The icemaker did not work. There was no ironing board. All in all the unit was cool and comfortable, and we would stay at this facility again in the future however, we would request not to get this particular unit. There was A noticeable lack of decor, which would have definitely added to the aesthetic of the condo we appreciated the front desk personnel, who were very helpful. Enjoyed the free beach service, and the ability to rent movies.

Holiday Surf has wonderful facilities. The unit itself was disappointing. Had to go buy a cable to try to get TV in master to work; still didn't (could only get one channel). Also no batteries in some of the remotes, no cable, very high pressure in the showers, broken ironing board.

The room was very nice and my stay was relaxing. An excellent view of the beach. The balcony had 4 chairs and a table - it might be a tad crowded if you had 4 adults on there at one time. I would have liked a chaise lounge for relaxing/napping but I'm sure space was an issue.

Overall Comment
Expect just the basics in these units. Our units had not coffee or basic needs covered. Beds were not very comfortable and linens were clean but not nice. Pillows were thin and not comfortable. Unit is old with broken drawers. Clean but expect no extras.
If you like to cook you will not like the provided kitchen basics. Stove burns uneven. Peeler, knives and cookware worn and frustrating to work with.
Property facilities were kept up nicely. Staff was nice. Gym was big enough but needs some equipment updates and missing pieces to the cross cable system. Gym opens late.
Liked location of facilities that were far enough away from the crowds but close drive for grocery and other basics you need.

Unit 701 was very clean when we arrived and offers a wonderful view of the beach. The king bed was firm but comfortable. The unit offers decent amenities and furniture but needs some updating, especially the tan carpet which has some wear/stains. The lobby, pool, tennis courts and outside areas are all well maintained and very clean. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and recommend Holiday Surf & Racquet.

Overall Comment
We love Holiday Surf & Racquet Club. This was our 3rd time staying and I think we found our favorite room. 701 was spacious and clean. The view was amazing.
My only recommendation would be to have the owners install a pull down sprayer in the shower to help with bathing children, especially getting sand out of their hair.
Also it would have been nice if the front desk would have informed us that on the 4th you dont have to go anywhere except your balcony to see plenty of fireworks.
The location of the condo is perfect. There are so many close option to eat and shop. We recommend Mello Mushroom, Jim and Nick's, and Fudpuckers. Riding the go carts at The Track is a must as well.
Can't wait to schedule our next trip!!!

The location was ideal, close to restaurants & grocery stores and Condo #701 was right on the beach , a bit of a walk but worth the view. A few complaints about the condo itself, the twin beds in the second bedroom need to be replaced, they were awful. I would suggest replacing the hot water heater, there were 3 of us, by the third person there was no hot water. The property needs to have more luggage racks, there only 4 and the amount of people checking in, we had to wait 30 minutes. Other than that, it was awesome !!

Hi Deborah.
Your comments were taken to heart even though it took a bit of time to get back to you. The owner has replaced the bedding in the guest room with luxury foam mattresses. Also we have purchased additional luggage carts to keep up with the demand. We look forward to your next visit. Thank you for making HSRC part of your vacation.

We absolutely love coming to the beach in the fall when kids are on fall break. Not as hot on mother either with heart condition. I wish there was an easier way to get the trash down due to the shape of the building, but not taking away form any of the stars.
