Hotel Details

Location

One block from the beach and Ocean City Boardwalk, with easy walking access to dozens of restaurants and shops.
The Surf Club is situated just a short walk from the beach and the heart of the boardwalk, placing you within easy reach of Ocean City's main attractions. Atlantic City International Airport is 22 km away, and nearby landmarks such as Imax Theatre At The Tropicana and Boardwalk Hall are each 16 km from the property. Restaurants including Curly Fries (0.5 km), Steve's Grilled Cheese & Quesadilla Company (0.5 km), Augie's Omelette & Waffle (0.5 km), and Hula Grill (0.5 km) are all within a comfortable stroll. For getting around without a car, the location is ideal for walking to the beach, dining, and shopping. The neighbourhood is quiet at night, making for a restful stay close to the action.

Accommodation

Modern, recently renovated suites with parquet floors, air conditioning, and private terraces in a clean, comfortable setting.
Each air-conditioned suite has one bedroom, a private bathroom with a shower and hairdryer, parquet floors, heating, and a flat-screen TV with streaming services. The suites feature either one king bed or two beds, plus a sofa and sofa bed, making them suitable for couples or small families. Rooms are freshly renovated with modern decor, clean and comfortable. The bathroom is a standout feature - spacious, with excellent water pressure and a rainfall shower head. Some suites face the street, so light sleepers may prefer a quieter rear-facing room if noise is a concern. The rooms are compact but well-appointed, ideal for a short beach getaway.

Dining

No on-site restaurant or breakfast service, but the surrounding area is packed with dining options within a short walk.
The Surf Club does not offer its own restaurant, bar, or breakfast, so all meals are taken at nearby establishments. The immediate neighbourhood provides an exceptional variety of dining within 0.5 km, including Curly Fries, Steve's Grilled Cheese & Quesadilla Company, Augie's Omelette & Waffle for breakfast, Sundaes by the OCean Frozen Desserts for sweet treats, and several other casual eateries. Holiday next door is noted for very good coffee. This setup suits travelers who prefer exploring local food scenes rather than being tied to a hotel dining schedule. For guests wanting to prepare their own food, the room includes a larger-than-expected refrigerator.

Wellness and Leisure

Access to two seasonal heated outdoor pools at a sister property, plus a lounge terrace and sun deck.
The Surf Club provides access to two seasonal, heated outdoor pools (both open daily 09:00-20:00) located at a sister motel just next door. Use of the pools is free for guests. The property itself has a private outdoor lounge area with chairs, tables, and a sun deck, ideal for relaxing after a day at the beach. The beach is a five-minute walk away, and bike rentals are available nearby. The lounge area is well-kept and provides a quiet alternative to the busier beachfront.
