We had an absolutely wonderful time, and were able to relax and unwind for a week in Maria’s beautiful home. The location is perfect. Everything was thought of and provided. The pool is gorgeous, clean, and private. We have zero complaints, and loved every minute of our vacation. We will return!

The property is immaculate. Very comfortable home that is close to shops, beach and river. Maria was a wonderful host too.

Beautiful house! Fantastic location - quiet neighborhood, steps from the beach, pool with lovely backyard & close location to downtown. Plenty of towels, beach toys, etc. LOVED this place and plan to come back!!!

The property needs updating and the listing needs revising to reflect changes in property. Overall, nice, but if owner would spend a little more time and money could be awesome. The location for beach and town is really perfect. Just heat the dang pool and add a little to the rent, anything less is being cheap and places the burden on the renter. Again on the cheap side, water heater is turned almost off, water throughout house is luke warm, wish the pool as we well. Kitchen not adequately stocked with appropriate cookware and utensils. While there are many extras for beach use etc in garage, most are worn out, nothing organized, happy hunting in the stacks... Personal favorite was master suite bed. Pretty sure this was picked up off the street someplace. Bed frame so bent it would not support the entire far side of the bed. Mattress lumpy, as in uphill from right to left one body roll, then plateau for one body roll, then the down hill journey as you roll over lumps towards the left. I mean really. This was mentioned in prior reviews over the last couple of years, so obviously no one cares. Also, that "outside" bath, went from ooh I love an outside shower, to fear of falling in on you and a very rusted out shower head in 10 seconds, thus leaving the shortage of full baths at this property a larger issue. Oh yea, one of the two showers inside the house is barely safe, is not safe for anyone over 60, requires about a foot drop/step down into the tub for use. Our fear was some of the guest would potentially not be able to get out of the shower as a result of mobility issues, so 6 people used one shower for 4 days. Certainly added to that thought of value for this property....not Overall not sure property is to code with enough smoke detectors. Last but not least. The enjoyment of laying in the master bed, trying to relax and not roll off the bed, while watching the room flair with the rising sun (as in not a curtain in the house), listening to the soothing sounds of most likely squirrels chewing and grinding insulation and sheet rock in the wall behind your head. Just cannot get these types of experiences any other place than VRBO. :)

This was our second of many more stays at Surf Lane. We unfortunately picked the week that Hurricane Ian devastated Florida for our family vacation. I cannot express enough how amazing Maria was through our entire stay! She checked on us, did everything she could to keep us safe, to include sending a team of people in to prepare us for the storm. Without any request on my part, Maria graciously offered to refund a portion of our rental fees because we were hunkered down and could not enjoy the beach or the pool. I give the Surf Lane home 5 stars, and give Maria 10 stars for her kindness, grace and responsiveness. I cannot wait for our 2023 family vacation at Surf Lane.

The property was wonderful as described and Maria was more than accommodating of our schedule needs.

the rental home was perfect, well maintained, and stocked with every thing we needed.Very close to ocean for morning and evening walks or swim.Thank you to the owners and staff that made our visit enjoyable.

This property did not disappoint. Exactly like the pictures, beautiful, comfortable, great patio and very close to the beach. We will definitely visit this property again! Maria was wonderful to work with and our visit and vacation was amazing!

We stayed in Vero for the first two weeks of 2022 to visit family and escape the cold Chicago winter. Surf Lane is a quiet street with only 6 houses on each side. Maria's place is not ocean front but the walk to the beach is no more than 3 minutes through the HOA's easement. This is the only way I can enjoy a beach day...when the house is so close it feels like you could stay there all day. The house is loaded everything you need to enjoy the beach: a beach cart to carry beach chairs, toys, cooler, umbrella, etc. We had unseasonably warm weather so the pool was refreshing and we enjoyed the fire table on the covered patio in the evening with a glass of wine or 3. Maria was very responsive and was able to help us get the pool heater going in no time. Pro tip: using the solar cover really helps contain the heat but don't expect the pool to be much over 80 degrees if the air temperatures are under 80. We only have one small issue and that's the quality of the bed in the master bedroom. The other rooms seemed to have newer mattresses but the master was a back killer. Overall Maria's place is a charming rental. Unlike many vacation homes we've rented, this one felt warm, well decorated and was exactly the escape we were looking for. Something about the vibe in this house tricks you into thinking you're on the Mediterranean coast! We'd stay here again for sure.

This was a PERFECT getaway for our family. So beautifully furnished and the location so great to the beach. Our Labrador truly loved the short walk to the beach! BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!!!

Stayed here for three nights over New Year’s Eve. It was an absolute paradise. The house is even more beautiful than In pictures. Loved the private one minute walk to the beach. Loved the hammock and the pool area. Everything was so lovely. We plan on coming back.

The house is in a great location steps from the beach and it was so nice to have a pool! Maria was a wonderful host.

Great house and location. Very short walk to beach is fantastic.

You could hear the ocean waves from the lovely back patio. The pool was a spectacular addition. The owner was very responsive to our communications. Would definitely stay there again

We had a lovely week at this home. It’s access to a beautiful quiet beach with all the needed beach accessories made our week! The home was perfect for our family vacation with toddlers and extended family. We all agreed we would come back again!

Home is beautiful- steps from beach via path. Pool is great- everything you need for a family get away. Pool toys, beach toys and a great cabana and umbrella for a beach afternoon. Definitely would stay here again. Maria is such a great host. Immediate communication when there is a question or concern. Had the best time!

This property is beautiful and is tucked away in a quite neighborhood right next to the beach. Maria was fantastic, and this property exceeded all of our expectations.

Good property, but some things need to be repaired. Kitchen equipment needs review as some of the pans are in bad condition. Boogie boards and pool floats seem to need replacing. Also, kitchen equipment in cabinets should be better organized for next guests. Everything in cabinets was very unorganized making it difficult to find things or replace appropriately.

This is our second time staying at Surf Lane and it was excellent. It’s a wonderful property for families, with everything you could need for a beach trip. Maria is a wonderful host and ensures you’re comfortable during your stay, with prompt communication. The house is in such a great location, just a short walk to the beach. The pool is fantastic, the hammock is a great reading spot, where you can hear the waves crashing. The paddle board and kayak were fun to use. I hope we can return soon!

My husband and I celebrated our 34th anniversary at this wonderful house! We can not say enough great things about this awesome house and location. Maria was a wonderful communicator and host and it was great to get to meet you as well in person! The house is just like the pictures! Very well landscaped, beautiful pool and just 100 yds. to a beautiful beach! The house was very clean and had everything you needed to cook inside or grill out, even had kayaks bikes, etc. to use. Very well decorated as well! The close proximity to a nice little grocery store was very handy as well. We would love to come back and spend more time and enjoy all the house has to offer! You will be missing out if you do not give this home a try. We did not want to leave!

The first thing my husband said on walking in the door was “I could live here”. Lots of construction improvements going on with other houses on the same street but it didn’t bother us.

My family stayed at this house for a week and had a wonderful time. The house looks just like the photos. It’s so comfortable, stocked with everything you could possibly want! The beach is a short path away, the pool is great and there is even a table with fire pit! Location is great and close to town. We all loved this house and hope to return again.

The most relaxing vacation I have had in some time. Perfect is the best way to sum it all up. The location, the home, amenities, entertainment and pet friendly as well. Can't ask for much better than that. Last but not least, Maria was great in communicating and with anything we needed. Would love to stay again in the future.
