Unit 311
by Noblesville IN
★★★☆☆ 3 of 5
Overall Comment
HSRC has many other units I would recommend choosing. Unit 311 was dusty, dirty, and downright grimy. The description says unit is updated with luxurious bedding and new mattress. I can promise you the bed is horribly uncomfortable and the luxurious bedding consists of the cheapest a plain white sheets and a stiff and dirty duvet cover. Kitchen not well stocked and again just overall dirty.

The overall experience was wonderful, the condo was clean and accessible. We did have a problem with the living room TV which we tried for 3 days to get fixed from the down stairs people, but it was never resolved. Other than that it was wonderful, I look forward to planning our next trip.

Our Happy Place

Overall Comment
We were in unit 311 for 2 months in early 2021. We were a little nervous about it being above the pool, but it wasn't an issue. The furniture was very comfortable, loved the higher furniture on the balcony so we didn't have to look through the railing and the kitchen had everything you could ask for. Our only issue was that there was too much stuff in the kitchen and no place to store food, so I had to rearrange some things. Holiday Surf is always clean, friendly staff and residents. We are going back again next year for 2 months.

Overall Okay- but expected better cleanliness
by Spring Tx
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
Overall Comment
While the stay was nice and needed. My in laws raves about the club from their past experience however it was disappointing that when we entered unit as i was prepping for where my family and children would sleep we opened trundle and it had no sheet and the mattress was so full of pee stains. Blankets in the closet were not freshly washed and also the mildew amount in the bathrooms was quite unnerving. Again the unit set up was nice and club was fine but was disappointed with cleanliness of our room and wouldn’t choose this unit again if we come back.

Love this place and have been here several times over the years. My only complaint with my most recent stay was having to fill out the rental agreement again once I arrived even though I had filled it out and emailed it earlier. Other than that it couldn't be much better in my opinion.

The weather and water was wonderful. However, Our unit had problems. Microwave did not work. A counter unit was supplied. Thank you! A little short on dinner plates too. Only 9. We gather for family meals. Only one elevator for entire stay. At one time the only elevator suck on 5th floor. We have been guests there for 28 years - only missing a few years. I miss the regular folks at the front desk. We really wanted to rent ground floor units - But they are only available on a weekly basis. SO - we love the place and will be back next year. Already reserved our TWO units on the 3rd floor. This is really a wonderful Family place.

Overall Comment
We had a very pleasant stay at Holiday Surf and Racquet Club. The only exception is that when we got there we discovered that we were not allowed access to the washer & dryer in the unit. This is the reason that we rented this particular unit since most do not have W&D in them. Apparently the owners are not always good about notifying the staff if there is a change to the condo. Other than this everything was very nice. The staff is very friendly, especially night manager Natosha. We liked the fact that there is a security gate and 24 hour assistance available and security. The condo was very clean and decorated so cute. It's only a short walk to the beach and umbrellas and chairs are provided at no additional fee unlike most places. They have a very nice pool. The only thing that would have made it better would have been to also have a hot tub.
