SurfaceGuis (and also BillboardGuis) do not know the player that activated them unless the Gui itself is located within a specific Players' PlayerGui.

To start, move your SurfaceGui in its entirety to the StarterGui. Make this script a LocalScript.

Assuming 'Part' is in the Workspace, and this LocalScript is a direct descendant of the SurfaceGui:

script.Parent.Adornee = workspace.Part

function onClicked()
    if game.Players.LocalPlayer then
        game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(8473728) -- The player to Teleport is assumed when called from a LocalScript.
    end
end

script.Parent.Frame.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:connect(onClicked)
