“Best place to relax in Cocoa Beach”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2012

This is the only place I would consider staying when in Cocoa Beach. Woderful and quiet atmosphere with a great staff and beach. If you are looking to get away from the crowds while in central Florida this is the place to go. Beautiful pool and wooden sun deck overlook the beach with hammocks in between the palm trees. Doesn't get any better than that.

Room Tip: Families might consider the effiency suites closest to the beach with bedroom and full kitchen.

“Exactly what I wanted”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 21, 2011

Found it by accident. Stopped in to see if it was pet-friendly and it is. I loved my stay here. I was working in Orlando, had my dog with me and had 2 days to kill. This was just what I wanted for a beach weekend: Oceanfront - and what a beach! Quiet. Beautiful. Not in a congested neighborhood, but close enough to things you need - like a convent store a block away for the necessities, since I had a kitchen. All one story units. Maybe a dozen rooms? Easy. Walk out your door and you are on a grassy lawn, steps from the great meandering deck with plenty of tables, hammocks and chairs, which sits just elevated over the beach. SIMPLE. Gorgeous views. Absolutely everything in good repair. Wifi was a bit slow at times. Oh well - stare out the picture window to the beach.

Clean. Clean. My room/apartment had a full kitchen - equipped! SO happy to find a coffee maker and filters. I could cook here easily. Comfy beds. Lots of pillows.

What it's not: huge, trendy, luxurious, glamorous, current, beach-chic valet parking, doorman, etc. No elevator! YAY!

What It is: Old Florida. Clean. Comfortable. Simple. pet friendly, quiet, Right ON a fabulous beach, relaxing. It even has it's own little pool. The owners are nice. It is all just fine with me

I don't want to leave. I will be back.

Room Tip: 2 oceanfront rooms with views of the ocean, but all the rest are right next to it.

“Wonderful Vacation Stay on Cocoa Beach”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 7, 2011

If you're looking for a small, very nice place to get away to that has an awesome beach, this is the place. Greg the owner is great and alway walking the property of catching some waves. His father started the place and now it's Greg's. One of the staff, Mamie has worked there for 40 years and loves her job... and it really shows.

The grounds are kept neat and clean along with the rooms. One of the best things about this place is that you are only steps from Cocoa Beach. Great surfing and if you don't surf there's always a few out there catching the waves... very intertaining! Botom line.... We'll be back next year. Great value and friendly service that has been lost in time is what you get at Surf Studio Beach Resort.

See You Next Year!

“The best place to stay in Cocoa Beach!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 24, 2011

Surf Studio is a laid back, relaxing place to stay. My family spent 5 days here and loved every minute of it. The rooms were clean and the establishment was beautiful. There is a deck overlooking the beach with hammocks and an outdoor barbecue. We had hotdogs and s'mores! The staff is friendly and genuinely concerned about your comfort and happiness while you are there. We will defintiely be back.

Room Tip: We stayed in a one bedroom efficiency.

“The perfect friendly resort for low-keyed relaxation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2011

Surf Studio isn't for everyone: only those desiring a more laid back, chilled out, no frills stay at a wonderfully friendly, clean, pet-friendly and gorgeous location. Surf Studio offers a nice variety of rooms from a regular motel guest room to efficiency apartments. We stayed in a room with a queen bed, a small kitchenette with micro, fridge, stovetop and sink. It was perfect. The beach is a stroll away, with a fantastic deck which includes a huge barbeque pit, lots of lounging chairs, and an unparalleled view of the Atlantic Ocean. The rates are very reasonable, and the host, Greg, is happy to make your stay an enjoyable one. We came at the same time last year and met the same people again this year, showing that this place has MANY return visitors. We were only able to stay three days this year, but next year it'll be a week. It is our little piece of paradise when we stay. The heated pool is clean, the surfers are always out (boards are rented at the front office) and the ocean never fails to fascinate. This place is a gem.
