The condo was very comfortable; the beds were great.
While the place was a little small for our family of 6, we enjoyed our one night stay - the property was clean and nicely decorated and the host was polite and responsive.
The host was fantastic, the access to the beach is right across the street so it was very easy for us to take our 4 small kids back and forth to the beach. The fact that there is a laundry room at the complex is a game changer. But the condo itself was great. Plenty of room for me, my wife, and 4 kids.
we were in town for a family birthday. The location was great and description spot on. Hopefully weather will be better next time! Thank you for you little piece of heaven.
This property was perfect for my daughter and myself. It was very clean, and mostly importantly we felt very safe. The décor is adorable, perfect for the beach. The beds are extremely comfortable. Jessica was easy to contact and very sweet. We had a wonderful time and would stay here again.
Quick, last minute beach trip. Jessica was great to work with and was very quick to respond. She even let us know the unit was available for an extra night. The building is older, but the condo was super clean and had everything we needed. Very convenient location to the beach and pier area of Garden City. You can see a sliver of the ocean from the porch and the marsh from the back. Enjoyed our short stay!
Jessica is easy to communicate with. She responds very quick to any questions. There are beach chairs to use , towels for the pool and beach. Coffee, these little fig bars I loved. Water bottles and a bag of ice. Linens for the futon were easy to find. Cool balcony. The location is amazing. It’s such a cute place. Jessica has thought of everything you need to make your vacation amazing.
Property was well maintained. The balcony was nice, you can see a little slither of the ocean from it! The location is really close to a public beach access point. I would say the only warning would be that if you have difficulty with stairs, to be aware there’s no elevator and it’s on the third floor. Wasn’t a huge problem for us, but it could be for others. The host was responsive and kind!
The Good, the Bad , and the Ugly! First , let me say that Jessica, the Host , was quick to respond to our questions. If the Happy Place would have been on the 1st floor , The review would have been much higher. The keyless entry system would not work properly and the host gave us her code. The digital thermostat was hard for us to understand even though we have one at home. The host said we should have called but I would not call at 1:30am so I did the best I could. The couch / futon sofa bed in the living room was not in good shape and should have been replaced weeks ago.It was a sad replacement for a living room sofa. The good news, the kitchen was clean and well supplied with everything one needs to cook at home. Coffee was supplied ( nice touch ) and both bedrooms we clean and well appointed. The pitch of the stairs were the main issue for us as Seniors and were borderline dangerous for those out of shape or with othopedic or pulmonary issues.A mention of the stairs was listed in the description but not strong enough of a warning. We left the next day ( a 15 hour stay ) after driving 7 hours each way for our 3 night stay in Myrtle Beach. The bottom line , If the Host had even offered to refund a small part of the agreed payment as she fully understood our issues , he rating as a 10 host would be valid in our eyes. But, I guess business is business so with this as all 1st time stays at any temporary rental , Caveat Emptor.
We were looking for a decently priced place to stay for the weekend. Found the perfect place in Garden City. It was in walking distance to the beach, pier,and shops. Everything was accurately described online. We had no issues at all getting in touch with the very friendly host. She even allowed us early entry since it was empty that day. Would definitely stay again.
Location is great and the condo was adorable. Had a lot of little extras to make everything more comfortable. Was great communicating with the owner. Would recommend to anyone looking for close access and homey feeling.
There were 5 of us staying here and we had a great time! The place was spacious enough for all of us. There were also extra things we needed around the house too. The patio area was nice to sit out on and the beach was a very quick walk away! Overall a great time and great experience!
Think we may have been the first or second guests since a very nice and tasteful remodel. Clean and quiet. Jessica always responded quickly and was very knowledgable about the area. Highly recommend!
Very beautiful, clean and charming beach property. Host was the best I’ve ever dealt with and immediately answered all questions and concerns. Checking in was also most seamless process I’ve experienced. All hosts should be like this!
