Check out Surfside Oasis & Surfside Oasis Too! Love Love Love this place! These houses are new to…read morethe market & they are wonderful! The pool is awesome & you are literally just steps from the beach. Had a great time with the family! We had both houses & there was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchens in both houses are furnished, have granite countertops & plenty of room. We ate most of our meals out on the deck overlooking the beach. The houses are surrounded by Palm Trees. There are BBQ grills, adirondack chairs, loungers & games for the kids. The big house even has an arcade video game that takes no quarters. New TV's, Direct TV, WiFi & nice furniture. Not your typical Beach House. It is even totally fenced in so we could corral the grandchildren. There was room for all of us to park inside the fenced in area & the guys even parked their boat underneath the house & we could lock the gates for added security. Both houses have outdoor private showers & foot washing stations & outdoor refrigerators so you don't have to go inside to get a beverage. It was great sitting at the swim up table under the umbrella & watching the kids swim. At first glance it seems pricey but when you average out the price it is very affordable. I can't say enough about this place. This is our FAVORITE new vacation spot! We can't wait to go back! :)

Our family needed a getaway from our home in Seattle, Washington when good friends pointed us to…read more"Holy Mackerel."As someone who is more a mountain person than a beach person, I didn't know what we should expect, but as we arrived, we were instantly excited to spend a few days at the house! The house itself was welcoming and comfortable from the moment we walked in and the view of the water was a constant treat. We didn't understand how much the close proximity to the beach would shape our time at the house. Since it was so easy to get to the beach and into the water, we relaxed in the surf much more than we expected to. The key words there are "relaxed...more than we expected"! Our first night, as we settled in and noticed the unexpected amenities, we remarked to ourselves, "They thought of everything!" Our older daughter- who is an avid reader- loved the little touches like the reading lights connected to the bunk beds. Frankly, we are not used to being so well taken care of! Our family got to create some easy and meaningful memories during our time at the house. From dinner and games around the family-sized table to quiet moments of reading and reflection on the Adirondack-type chairs on the porches, there are many moments that we will look back on as special times in our lives together as a family. In the background of each of those moments was the thoughtfulness of the hosts who put the house together in such a way that we simply just enjoyed ourselves! We would definitely love to stay at Holy Mackerel again and we highly recommend the house for anyone who wants to enjoy simple comforts and drink deeply of the culture of the Gulf coast.

Beach Bunny - Thanksgiving 2013 - 1 week stay, family of 4, from Austin, TX…read more We've stayed here before, and knew essentially what to expect: CLOSEST house to the water! So, it's not the fanciest of accommodations: it's a no-frills beach house in Surfside (which is not a "luxury" area). If you know Surfside, then you know the area. If you are expecting luxury, pick a different beach. Beach Bunny: yeehaw, some nice improvements since our last stay! The kitchen is SO much nicer after renovations - it's usable! Great fridge, oven, & microwave. Coffee pot: annoying break in the pour spout made for dribbled messes. Other than that, kitchen is totally in working order, and well-equipped with the essentials. They have added a kitchen table, which is nice BC we brought our kids this trip (previously, there was only a bar). Living room: yea to the nice futon-couches! If you've seen pics of wicker furniture, be happy that they've been replaced! Nice coffee & end tables. TV in good working order with Satellite. Bedrooms: where you sleep & keep your clothes. Absolutely nothing fancy, but the beds are comfortable & the dressers/wardrobes were plenty for our week's stay. I call it a bonus that there's a TV with Satellite in the master bedroom. Bathroom: all in working order (although a big "#2" might need some help! LOL! Plunger provided, but wasn't needed). Nice amount of space for toiletries. Cleanliness: I, saw 1 roach (not a"billion," as I read). Have no complaints. I didn't inspect deeply: this is Surfside! I washed what I thought should be washed, trusted what I thought could be trusted. Didn't take notice to any cobwebs, or notice anything gross (per other reviews). Porch/deck: AWESOME! I really miss the porch swing! Be sure to bring chairs: the built-in bench faces the house, not the water. Nice picnic table! Be aware of the entry rug: it WILL be wet (seaspray), but nice to wipe off feet! (Tip: bring a wash-tub & keep a towel handy to lessen the sand coming into the house!) The portion that wraps around was a welcome respite from the biting cold wind! Our bag of linens was there as promised: I chuckle that it's all just left together in the bag (sheets, pillow cases, towels, etc), but no matter! Our challenge: it was frigid the first 2 days of our stay. I had verified there was heat (via window units), however, none of them worked (to provide heat). Thankfully, there were 2 space heaters, but needed a 3rd for each of the living areas. Since we arrived late, we were given extra blankets (to make it thru the 1st night), and a nice custodian arrived the next day with another space heater. (also used the oven to heat up the place "ghetto-style" for 1st night - thanks for the tip! Odd to me, but functional!) Water: do NOT drink, threatened illness/death! Ok, it's brown & foul-smelling; wash clothes at your own risk (it's a nice thought to provide washer & dryer, and they are nice units!). The water: not the fault of the Beach Bunny, & we were well aware of this before we arrived (but signing the part about "possible death" for drinking the water is daunting)! Kinda funny: my biggest disappointment = no one informed us we couldn't park on the beach! Last time here, we parked right next to the steps leading up to the house. Apparently, the beach was washed away - 50% gone from our last stay, and no driving on the beach this time. That means: you park "far away" and must hoof-it over the boardwalk to the house...makes for an exhausting unloading & loading! But, this is Mother Nature, not Beach Bunny/Beach House Associates. Kinda cool to have to trek over the boardwalk to your house, vs. trekking over the boardwalk to get to the beach! Though some may not find this desirable (but as a mom, I did!): this house is"kid-central!" The location is PERFECT for kids to gather, as the main boardwalk leads from a houses farther back, so there are quite a few passers-by next to the house. I'm all about welcoming kids to play, so the Beach Bunny became "the place" for gathering (this was all my encouragement, BTW!). If privacy is important: just don't invite anyone up! (last stay here was our anniversary, so no kids, & we had no problems!). What else? This is by far the BEST beach house on Surfside to be in! From the proximity of the beach, to the cozy but simpleton accommodations, if you want to be close to the water: this place rocks! Hope ya'll have a great stay at the Beach Bunny, we sure did!!!

But some long term renters had stayed on so Denise with BRS emailed us and gave us the option of three other properties and it was so hard to chose because they were all great. We settled on "Octopus's Garden" right on the beach. It was a large house with decks on both side and screened in porch in the middle. We rang in the new year in style! Denise always takes care of us and we ALWAYS have good service and response times from her and her staff. We have been renting from her for years and she is our go to every time for Surf Side Beach. Most folks only write reviews when things go bad. But we have never had a bad time in a house we booked with Denise.

I would recommend to not book through this company weather it is through their website or Air B&B or VRBO.

This is the second year we've rented a house in Surfside Beach. Everything is always clean and well cared for. When we've needed assistance, 979 was quick to help.

Rental nightmare! We rented 101 Salt Grass Ave, Surfside Beach, TX 77541 from June 29, 2024- July…read more6, 2024. 979 Properties is the management company, as the owner lives out of state. Upon arrival the outside of the property was disheveled and looked like we were walking upon an occupied residence. There were toys, trash, unused cans of sprays scattered about the yard and property. There was also a pickax literally laying on the patio like someone left it there, along with leftover piping and a shovel, etc. Once we entered the home we were smacked in the face with an intense animal urine smell. It is stuck in the carpet and it is terrible. It was very hard to sleep with it the first night. The next day I went to Walmart and spent $100 on candles to cover the smell and make it bearable. But also, there are areas of the carpet that are lifting and not tacked down. The exposed tacks are a hazard and unsafe to walk on, not to mention they are rusty. It is incredibly unsafe for adults but also for little ones who crawl like my 9 month old grandbaby who joined us on our vacation. Upon arrival the night of June 29th, we could not find the multitude of bunkbeds for the kids that are shown in the listing. There was also one more room missing that had an adult bed and a bathroom with a shower and a half bath that we could not find. We went under the house and through the storage area to find a dead bolted door beyond the storage area. We hunted for the key only to find this is where the three bunk beds, extra adult bed and bathroom and half bath were located. This hidden area is where the majority of the children's beds are located, with three bunkbeds, meaning six of the childrens beds are in this concealed area. There is no way to access this area from inside the home. It is secluded and can be easily accessed by an uninvited party without knowledge of the parties inside the actual home. Down in this area the second bedroom room was damaged and unsafe. There was a 4 foot by 5 foot cut out hole in the ceiling. Hanging from this area were 240 volt electrical wires, a sewage pipe that was leaking next to the bed below, some exposed insulation and honestly an unsafe environment that was exposing anyone who might sleep below to rodents or bugs that might be in the ceiling. There was mold along the wood. I did not pay $5700.00 to spend a week in these conditions. I was devastated and honestly humiliated. We brought two friends with us, but were also expecting family to join us as well. We were handicapped and limited on finding an alternate home that would accommodate our party of 13 safely. In this area we also arrived to a toilet that had an unattached toilet seat. I literally felt like we walked into the animal house. This is a blatant oversight that should not happen when a property management company and cleaning crew are preparing a home for a one week stay. We heard from multiple beach residents that this was a known party house. Makes more sense that we were met with such a feral environment. I was very suspicious that the home was not thoroughly cleaned. I decided to wash the bed sheets. In one of the beds I found a pair of purple socks in the foot area inside the sheets. My children also complained about sand in the beds. Dryer full of rust and ruined four of my Ann Taylor garments. The lacking water pressure prevented us from being able to take showers at times or even wash dishes. When I text the phone number to let them know the pressure was lacking significantly again they responded and said the entire island was having issues with water pressure. Interestingly enough, our friends on the next street that were a stone's throw away, had great water pressure their entire stay. It's really hard to wash dishes for 13 people with a small stream of water. Although location next to the beach was nice and we loved hearing the waves so close, it was honestly the most terrible vacation I've ever had and it is the most I've ever spent renting a house on Surfside Beach in the handful of years we've been going.
