Why Rent in Surfside?
Surfside occupies a two-block-wide strip of barrier island between Miami Beach’s northern end and Bal Harbour. It has a genuine small-town feel — a town hall, a community park, and a quiet pace that contrasts sharply with its neighbors. The beachfront is largely residential with low-rise condo buildings and single-family homes.
What to Expect
Rental stock is predominantly low-rise condo buildings and single-family homes. Ocean Terrace development has brought new investment to the oceanfront. Prices are competitive relative to Bal Harbour while providing similar beach access and proximity to Bal Harbour Shops.
Best For
Those who value walkable beach access in a quiet, family-scale community with a genuine neighborhood feel — without South Beach prices or noise.
