A Wave from it All - Five Bedroom, Four Bath Beach House

  • A Wave from it All is a five-bedroom, four-bath home located one mile south of Surfside Beach Pier and 0.1 miles from beach access (short walk to the beach). This home features an open floor plan connecting the living and dining rooms with the kitchen. The kitchen features granite counters, custom cabinets, tiled flooring and stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and microwave. Other amenities include washer, dryer, central heat and air conditioning, and ceiling fans. Seven TVs (flat-screen in bedrooms, cable), DVD players, high speed Internet, and Wi-Fi are also provided. Sleeping accommodations include two king, three queen and one twin-sized bed, plus a queen-sized sofa bed. Outdoor amenities include three covered porches (two front, one back), a private 20-by-12-foot swimming pool with furnished pool area, grill, and ample parking (some covered). No smoking. No pets. Maximum occupancy: 13

    The images and tours are provided to show the property's layout. Items, including furniture, décor, accessories, and bedding, may not be an exact representation. Additionally, Garden City Realty does not ensure these items are available as shown. This property may have video, audio or similar exterior surveillance equipment.

    Conveniently located close to some of the best area attractions, Garden City Beach is directly south of Surfside Beach and ends on a peninsula at the mouth of Murrells Inlet. One of the most renowned attractions in Garden City Beach is the Pier at Garden City. Other points of interest include Marlin Quay Marina and restaurants Sara J's Seafood Restaurant, Gulfstream Café, and Original Sam's Corner.

    Just south of Garden City Beach is Murrells Inlet, a seaside community considered the "Seafood Capital of South Carolina" and home to some of the nation's best golf courses. Once primarily a fishing village, the town is best known for the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, a half-mile-long boardwalk overlooking a pristine salt marsh, and the many award-winning restaurants along Highway 17 Business in the central business district.

    Brookgreen Gardens, a sculpture garden and wildlife preserve built on four former rice plantations, is located slightly south of the MarshWalk. It features several themed gardens with American figurative sculptures, trails through several nature reserve ecosystems, and the Lowcountry Zoo.

    If you're looking for places to shop, The Market Common, Broadway at the Beach, Barefoot Landing, two Tanger shopping outlets, Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and Promenade, and many more shopping facilities are all within an easy drive from Garden City Beach.

    Looking for entertainment and attractions? Take in a show at Pirates Voyage, Medieval Times, Alabama Theater, The Carolina Opry, or Legends in Concert. Then visit SkyWheel Myrtle Beach, Ripley's Aquarium, WonderWorks, Ripley's Believe It Or Not Odditorium, Hollywood Wax Museum Entertainment Center, and The Pavilion Nostalgia Park.

    Other points of interest close by include the waterfront community of Georgetown, the third oldest city in South Carolina and the second largest seaport in South Carolina, and historic Conway, with its downtown Riverwalk area nestled on the banks of the Waccamaw River. Both towns include fine dining, shopping, and historic sites.

    Take a day trip to Charleston to experience shopping, a harbor cruise, a city carriage tour, or a plantation tour. Charleston is only 87 miles from Garden City Beach - approximately two hours. It's a picturesque and exquisitely preserved southern city with antebellum architecture, cobblestone streets, and historical landmarks.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time! Loved the home! I don't know who you have cleaning but keep them the house was very clean. The only complaint I have is you need to provide a few more towels and a bad storm blew through 3 days before we left. I called to have the pool guy come out and clean up debris and get the leaves out of the pool. He came by to check out the light in the pool but never cleaned out the pool. We did the best we could with the net. Overall we had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

The bedrooms and bathrooms were all a good size with lots of space and comfortable beds. Swimming pool was a great bonus, the temperature was perfect and again very clean. The house is a great location and only a short walk to the beach. Grandparents loved sitting on the front balcony where it was shaded and then watching the kids swim from the rear balcony. Wonderful house, thankful we got to enjoy our week at A Wave from it All.

Great house but poor property manager

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed here for several years and have seen many much needed upgrades. There were more this year and we were very pleased with the house, amenities and location. We were extremely displeased with the cleanliness and Garden City Realty. Our email with check-in instructions said check-in would be delayed (5-7 pm) and we'd get a text when ready but listed our land line#. I immediately called and asked the rep to change to mobile#. Guess what no text at 7 pm and when we called we were told house had been ready for couple hours and a message had been left at our land line#. Noone ever made the requested update. Most disappointingly the house was FILTHY with sticky dirt spots all over the kitchen floor and the kitchen counters were covered in sand and crumbs. Delayed check-in for cleaning protocols should result in a reasonably clean house.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was very nice, but problems with rental agency having house ready for check-in on time. Told we could check in at four pm, but house wasn’t available till 5:30. Having driven 4 hours with four small children, and then being told we would have to wait and couldn’t tell me how long was not what I wanted to hear. Not planning to book through Garden City Reality again.
