The Surf Villa Hotel has been a landmark in Ocean City since the 1920s. The hotel is conveniently located near the boardwalk and within walking distance to the amusement parks, shops, restaurants, marinas, and most of Ocean City's great attractions. One of our best features however, is that we are only 300 feet from one of the most magnificent beaches on the East Coast.

We invite you to enjoy the lovely ocean view from the rocking chairs on our front porch. Each morning we also invite you to join us in our family style lobby for coffee, tea, and conversation. We encourage a family atmosphere and welcome families, groups, and other organizations.
 
Each of our 25 rooms and our available apartment is unique in design, has a color TV with forty channels, and air conditioning. Our staff is available 24 hours to assist you and give you personalized attention.
 
You will surely enjoy staying at the Surf Villa. It is a clean and comfortable hotel which all visitors say has a personal touch.

My husband (insert side eye here) booked this hotel for a weekend. I would not call myself high maintenance by a long shot. But this is definitely you are getting what you pay for. Rooms are very small, dated. Had to hook tv up to my hotspot for it to work. We had to DoorDash a fan because the room was so hot (definitely needs updated ac units). Bathroom is a whole other story on its own. My husband is 6’4 and barely fit in the shower/bathroom. The water pressure and temp is some of the worst I have seen. To me this is a place great for younger kids, that want a trip without the high cost. If being comfortable is a priority to you, I would pay a little more and go somewhere else.
I personally would not come back.

Me and my girl stayed in the third floor of this establishment. I really enjoyed it, front desk was nice and made the place feel like a home. Always helped me when I had problems. Only two things I could complain about are not being able to check out an hour late and the size of the bathroom but other than that everything was perfect and we had an amazing experience.

The location was the biggest positive—it was within walking distance of the beach and boardwalk, which made it very convenient.

Unfortunately, there were several issues during our stay. The bathroom was extremely small, and the shower had almost no water pressure. We were also disappointed to find out that parking cost extra, as this wasn’t made clear upfront.

Another concern was that we left for breakfast and returned to find our room door open after housekeeping had been in the room. Since the hotel uses keypad locks, this was very concerning from a security standpoint. We also weren’t informed until checkout that we were expected to return the towels and other room items ourselves, even though they were already provided in the room.

While the location is excellent, the lack of communication, security concern, and overall room experience left us disappointed. I hope these issues are addressed for future guests.
