Looks a little worn from the outside but we were delighted to find the almost fully equipped suite (no microwave) is immaculately clean and very comfortable. Each room faces the sea and has a small balcony. Very well situated for downtown Victoria and coastal walks, it is on a main road and can be a little noisy with traffic during... More

We found the motel to be very clean and well maintained. We LOVED the view, and location. We went for an early morning walk out the Ogden Point breakwater (just across the street). Although noisy during the day and early evening, it is nice and quiet later in the night. Good service, and a most pleasant stay.

Stayed again recently in the 3 bedroom cottage back from the main motel building. For a travelling family, the space was handy and the amenities good. Great location as well. Free wireless internet was patchy so far from the motel though.

Stayed here my last night in Victoria, wish it had been longer. The views simply cannot be beat. The staff were very friendly and helpful - although my room wasn't ready they let me leave my baggage in their office from early morning onward. I think the womans name was Ingrid, very kind people. Wifi service was perfect, bed was... More

This was the second time I stayed at the Surf. Both visits were great and The staff was friendly and helpful. This trip I took my son and his family and they loved the motel and the view of the ocean. Staying here is a little trip back in time for me, I just love the pink bathrooms! If you... More

We stayed 2 nights at this small, retro-style, oceanfront motel last week. We loved almost everything about the place. Perfect location, balconies with ocean views in every room, very clean and great housekeeping staff. I'd love to give the Surf 4 (maybe 5) stars, but won't due to the gruff and unprofessional night staff. The hotel advertised wifi. I planned... More

My daughter and I stayed at the Surf Motel for two nights and were very impressed with the service from the staff and the cleanliness of the rooms. The rooms were comfortable and very clean. All of the rooms in this motel face the ocean which is right across the road from the motel and you have beautiful views of... More

The Surf is almost perfect. It is a simple, economy hotel with a vintage feel, but is always spotlessly clean, and the staff have always been great to us. The management has changed over the years we've been going (though not the family ownership) so I feel a previous bad review about cancellation policy is probably down to a past... More

We stayed at one of the cottages rented by the surf motel. It was charming, clean, quiet and in a great location close to the water.
