Everything was perfect for what we needed, breakfast was a little lacking on choice, but, there wasn’t much counter space, and for what we paid, it wasn’t bad, bacon or sausage patty with a form of egg on a bagel will always win :-)

I highly recommend Surf and Sand Hotel for many reasons. The location of it couldn't be any better. A brief walk to the beach, gas station and restaurant. The ouside and inside was very nice and clean. The staff was great. Breakfast was great. They have a panvaje maker instead of waffle like alot of hotels.The have a pool but its near the dumpster so we kept getting wiffs of the smell. Other than than it was a great stay.
