What sets Surfside Realty apart?

A majority of our properties have keyless entry with express check in/check out. This means you do not have to come to our office or have contact with anyone outside of your vacation party upon arrival or departure.

We have partnered with our cleaning companies and homeowners to ensure the safety of our arriving guests by implementing an enhanced cleaning standard. Effective immediately, in addition to following our normal protocols, all cleaning teams will have heightened attention on the cleaning and disinfecting of the most frequently touched areas in every property to include: keyless entry pads, door knobs, light switches, remote controls, HVAC control panels, all hard surfaces, and bathroom surfaces such a toilet handles/seats, sink faucets and shower/tub knobs.

We recommend purchasing Travel Insurance to protect your vacation expense in the event that you or a member of your party become too ill to travel or if traveling is against doctor's orders. If you have already purchased a Travel Insurance Policy with Surfside Realty and have questions, please contact Red Sky Insurance. Go to www.redskyinsurance.com or call 866-549-5283 for answers to questions regarding your policy or to file a claim.

What if I have booked an upcoming vacation?
