We stayed here for a week. This was a comfortable and nice vacation. They have private beach acces across the street, the apartment was clean and had everithing that you need away from home. The front desk hours is limited, but they work with your needs. The neightboorhood was very nice and quiet. We really enjoyed our vacation.

Staff at reception are awesome and a credit to the resort. I can see why so many people have said this in their reviews. The units however need maintenance and renovating. Our windows and blinds were cracked and broken. The oven and hob did not work. Hot water was difficult to get in shower as we were in 4th floor. We would stay again.

Do not recommend
Good location. Close to the beach - that would be the only positive thing . Place needs to be updated and scrubbed , kitchen cabinets were sticky, appliances were dirty, both bathrooms also need a deep clenaning, pretzels under the sofa bed in the living room. Wouldn't not stay there again.

This place was great! Awesome space for the money and our family of 6. With a full kitchen, laundry and two bathrooms we were very comfortable and didn't feel "on top of each other" and were able to save money by not eating out. The pool is fabulous with lots of space and very clean and well maintained. We were in it every morning and the beach was just a short walk away in the afternoon. Staff was awesome and allowed us a later check out to accommodate our flight. We will definitely be back!

Great Service, Clean Units, Poor Internet
The front desk personnel are excellent and very responsive to guests' needs. They extended our checkout by 2 hours which we greatly appreciated. Likewise, the units are spacious and adequately equipped and the swimming pool is fantastic! The #1 problem is the strength of the internet signal. We were on the 4th floor and the internet strength was so weak that I had to connect to the internet via my I-phone.
Huge swimming pool; great for laps

Relaxing.
It was my daughter's birthday weekend. We reserved it for the few days and it was relaxing spacious. I didn't have any big issues... The front desk staff was nice and understanding. The only issues were no sponge for washing the dishes so I used a towel and the panel in the master bedroom fell off but other than that it was great get away for my daughter's 9th birthday :D

We loved having a tennis court and the outside balcony overlooking the canal. Spacious layout with a very comfortable bed. Amazing shower pressure, and walkable location with great beach access. Dianora at the desk was most helpful and pleasant. We stayed in two different rooms as we left for a few days to visit friends in Stuart. The rooms were both updated and comfortable. Great value as well. The only negative is the WiFi, it’s not good at all.

Liked: Room comfort
Not to overblow this, as it is an under a $100 a night place on the beach. The room was comfortable. The pool was okay. It was okay for a family of 6 to stay at. The front desk staff, was insulting, or attempting humor; I couldn't tell which. The desk/office hours were varied at best. Lunch seemed to happen whenever it happened. Open around 10ish, close at 7ish. Late check in was a nightmare as you have to call another property to get access to a lockbox. And apparently, they were really busy at 11pm. Overall, the property was nice, but just somewhat lacking in maintenance. Not one thing you could lay your finger on, it just seemed unkept.

Hotel Stay
Our check in was delayed until after 5 pm. When we went into the room a cockroach ran across the kitchen floor. We were not given any instructions on how to access the pool or the beach. We tried to use our key card to access the pool to later find out we could only go into the pool through the other facilities front desk. Our stay lacked communication and we were disappointed with the cleanliness of the place.

Overall nice place to stay. Convenient access to the beach, across the street. Sofa bed seemed dated and had stains, which made us uncomfortable.

Just needed a place near the rest of the family staying in a nearby house for the week. This location fit the bill perfectly and was both comfortable and convenient. However, we were using it basically as a lodging and not for any of the amenities.

As soon as I opened the door , I was greeted by some roaches. The inside of the hotel room is run down a little. There’s crack on the wall and the floor. There were roaches crawling on the kitchen. The area where the hotel is located is very nice. It’s walking distance to the beach. It’s good for the price but i wish I didn’t have to deal with the roaches.

We have stayed numerous times at Surfsider and each time we are not disappointed by our visit. The rooms have always been clean and comfortable and have everything we need for our trip. We enjoy the view from our windows of the intercoastal waterway and the short walk to the beach.

Basically a furnished apartment by the beach.
Really liked SurfSider and was surprised by it. Fantastic price for a very nice furnished little apartment with everything provided... fresh dish towels even. I was on the 5th floor and had a great view of Ocean Blvd and could see the water a little too; on the balcony in the rear, I could see all the way out to Lauderdale. All the lights lit up at night are very beautiful. The elevator was broken (they called me in May and told me about it so I knew). I walked up the five flights every day and it was a good work out. To be fair, the elevator goes up but not down too well and it was slow so I just walked. No big deal. The value for the place more than made up for it.

Great Resort at an Affordable Price
The office staff was very helpful in accommodating my late arrival. The staff provided excellent service and we're very nice and professional. My room was clean and in great condition. Everything I needed was provided for. It was an excellent stay for me and my family. I highly recommend this resort for anyone looking for an extended stay in Pompano Beach, FL.
