It's been years since I've stayed in a motel (exterior doors) so I was a little hesitant, but I couldn't have been happier! The staff is so friendly, housekeeping was awesome, and the rooms were very cute. Even my picky teens loved the place :) the beach is across the street and in the morning, there are plenty of beach... More

Silver Surf is definately not a hotel, but a nice motel. The rooms are all tiled and clean. We had a small microwave and toaster and other kitchen utensils to use. Great location and private beach with chairs and umbrellas at no extra cost. Staff were very welcoming and made sure we liked our room by calling the room abt... More

Sits just across the road from the beach. Pleasant staff (no overnight desk service). The rooms are not large but adequate. A nice pool. They provide beach towels. Chairs are available on the beach for no charge. A beautiful place to watch the sunset. About a mile from Bridge Street with its shops and restaurants and the free trolley (which... More

Our room was very nice. It had all kitchen amenities except a stove. The floors were tiled and made the room feel cooler. It was a very clean room too. We were very pleased. My only complaint is that they advertised that they provide beach chairs. When we went down to the beach they were all out of chairs. We... More

We stayed here spring break 2013 during an unusually cold week in Florida. The front desk staff was very friendly and accomodating. We had a great time despite the disappointing weather. Great value and just steps to the beach. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Clean excellent staff.

What is true: It is across the street from the beach. It has a pool. That's it. The website is VERY misleading. I knew something was wrong when the front desk person DEMANDED full payment for the entire stay when we arrived. Not a credit card to hold but FULL PAYMENT. Warning bells were ringing in my head. What "resort"... More

A few steps from the beach this homey hotel is the perfect choice while staying at Anna Maria Island. The beds were very confortable, AC on the room and nice shower. The pool is also OK. A few blocks down the hotel there is a scuba shop where equipament can be rented and a big ship wreck just meters away... More

We were referred to this resort by a local. It appeared very simple as far as curb appeal but it was very friendly, very clean and even though it was a smaller room it had everything we could possibly need! Very well thought out! It had a wonderful private pool and a private beach! Prices were awesome and it was... More

We were coming to the Bradenton area during Spring Break for a wedding and began looking for a place to stay on the beach 9 months ahead of time. Many places were already booked and those that weren't would only rent to us for Sat to Sat which wasn't going to work for us. We needed Mon to Mon. The... More

Just came home from Anna Maria Island. My husband , 2 daughters and myself stayed here for the first time. After not being able to find a place with vacancy 6 weeks prior, Silver Surf was recommended by a competitor. This suprised me and also spoke volumes. Thier reputation must be good if they are being recommended! Originally I had... More
