EASY CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT:
It's easy to stay with us and secure too! Access the home electronically at 4pm on the date of your arrival with your unique lock code that we specifically give only to you via text and email. Your code is live from 4pm on your arrival date until 11am on the date of your departure.

The Neighborhood:
🏝️ We (The 979 Crew) love our sleepy Surfside Beach community with plenty of sand and surf to enjoy! No touristy chain restaurants, shops or hotels. Just chillin' beach bar and grills, food (and beverage) trucks (like Surfin Rita Daiquiris To-Go), burger joints (like Pier 30 and Sharkies on the Beach) and tasty fresh seafood options (like Seahorse Bar & Grill and Beachfront Deck Bar & Grill) line the water. Surfside is your simple relaxing sandy beach, water sporting, surfing, fishing and crabbing vacation destination.

Other Things to Note:
HOSTED BY THE 979 CREW ADVANTAGE:
The 979 Crew is comprised of island locals who are passionate about making sure the home you chose is nothing short of clean, comfortable, and ready for your group's fun! Every home is fully and professionally cleaned after each guest stay. In addition, all of our homes feature luxury hotel-quality/high thread count on all sheets, bedding, and bath towels which are replaced upon every turnover including the duvet covers and shams (we've heard not every company does this, and we think that's just gross). We take clean seriously! When you rent a 979 home, you'll also receive the 'comforts of home' guest welcome starter supply of shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, tp and paper towels, dishwasher and clothes washer pods. We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

🐾 PUP-FRIENDLY:
Bring Fido(s)! We welcome your furry friends (aka family members). Up to 2 well-behaved dogs are allowed at this home, subject to approval and a non-refundable pet fee of $100 per dog per stay.

WIFI/TV SERVICE:
Our properties include WIFI/Internet and TV service for your streaming services. Due to our location (Island living is a whole other way of life), service may be unpredictable or spotty, and repair times can be delayed. While we will do everything we can to ensure these items are in good working order before your arrival, please note, these services may not be as consistent as they are in your area. So grab your favorite people, ditch the electronics, and spend the day at our beautiful beaches!

Great location. Clean & has essentials (might pack a few baking sheets, blender, etc. if you plan on spending a lot of time in the kitchen). Enjoyed our stay & would visit again. 👍🏻

It was easy access to beach but beach isn’t visible from house, upstairs king bed is not a bed and there is not a drainage system for the downstairs shower so mosquitoes were horrifically bad.
Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2020

very cute home, the beds were super comfy, but the foam mattress toppers were a little hot to sleep on. Also the sheets on the upstairs king kept coming off because they were too small. More patio chairs would be nice & kitchen knives for cutting. Other than those minor things, it was great. we would definitely stay again. Oh & the neighbors were very nice!

Home was a good distance from beach, easily walkable. Had trouble sleeping in upstairs full-size bed because of its squeakiness. We found a couple of miscellaneous items from previous renters. Some issues with the cleanliness of the dishes/silverware. I recommend shower curtains be updated as they were starting to rust.

The house was very cute. There did need to be more outside furniture. There were Three decks and a total of two chairs. The house sleeps 8 but seating inside was sparse. There were only four of us and we spent minimal time inside so it wasn’t a problem. We were a three minute walk to the beach. It was super cute and we enjoyed our stay there. We did have a problem getting the upper deck doors open but we received a response from the management within minutes.

We were cautious about coming due to hurricane Beryl having just hit the area. Management told us all was well with the property and told us to come on. We felt we should have been updated more from the company on the condition of the area of Surfside so we could have been more prepared. We had to do a lot of research on our own to know what we were coming into. The house was in good shape and pretty clean. Our only complaint was that we didn’t know there was a boil water in effect and this was never communicated with us. Overall the experience was great and we had a good time.

Perfect setup for back and forth to the beach with young ones. Easy morning and eve’s and napping during the heat of the day.

Our group comes for the annual Go Topless event in Surfside each year. This home was plenty large for our group of 5 (2 couples and a single). The beds were comfy and plenty of space in each of the bedrooms to spread out our long weekend suitcases. This home is convenient to local restaurants and sits on a quiet street. It is the first time we have rented with 979, but it will not be our last!!

Overall, the place is very nice, and location is very good. (15-minute walk to the beach which is also available by car. Street was very peaceful.) Well supplied except the pots and pans are sub-standard. If you plan to cook, may prefer to bring your own pans. Third bedroom is small but would work well for family arrangement. A few nice restaurants within a few miles. Not busy or crowded like Galveston--more peaceful. Management very helpful. Thanks.

We loved everything. I do wish that we had a table with chairs because it was hard for 8 of to sit all together. We only had 4 stools. All in all everything was nice!

Getting the rental was an involved process thatade me feel safe about the quality of the renters they allow. The check in process was seamless and worked perfectly. They area was great. On the downside, it appeared that the place had not been rented in quite awhile. The A/C vents all had large amounts of dust to the pint to where it was also stuck to the ceiling. The A/C filter is in plain view and was way past due for a change. The toilets had not been flushed in quite a while, and the water in them was stagnant and left residue growing in them. There were also several baby German cockroaches especially in the dishwasher, in the kitchen, and the living room area. I sent an email to the property manager, but have not heard back that they will be addressing any of these issues.

Our experience was horrible. The neighbors who live around the rental beach house were very unwelcoming and RUDE. Just like the manager steve who we rented from. Very rude. Told us this property wasn’t meant to be a rental and the neighbors don’t like that. So the neighbors were very hateful to myself & my family on our stay. The manager did nothing but make it horrible. Called our cell phones and treated us as we were kids. We even checked out a day early because the disrespect was so bad. I will NEVER rent from 979 rentals ever again. The property was beautiful and exactly what we were looking for, just not worth it to have to deal with Karen’s our whole trip.

10/10

Everything was so nice. The beds were so comfortable and it was nice to come back to the house and rest in great bedding after hours at the beach in the sun!!!

We had a great stay! The property was clean and felt new. We drove to the beach but you could walk if you don’t have a lot to haul. My only minor complaint was that there was no patio furniture. The pictures showed some chairs on the deck at least but there was none. Wasn’t a big deal but would have been nice for dining alfresco.
