The Marlin at Gulf Stream invites you to relax with an Ocean Breeze.

Welcome to your Oasis. The master bedroom with its comfy King size bed has a hint of a beach theme. You will also enjoy our Sailors room that offers a Queen size bed. What is unique about both rooms, they access a private patio. This is where you can soak up the sun or relax with a good book or a refreshing beverage. The third is the Island room with its double bed bunk beds, this is just perfect and very cozy. Our living room, offers a double reclining couch to sit and watch a good movie on our 60 inch flat screen television. So take a short walk to the beach and when you return you can take a nap or relax in the outdoor pool. You now will be ready for the night life of your choice !
The Marlin is centrally located in the Grand Strand for golf and all what Myrtle Beach has to offer, North and South. The Myrtle Beach Amateur is just around the corner, so be first and enjoy the pleasures of being close to the beach. Enjoy the beautiful sunrise and sunsets with soft white sands. There also many fine restaurants to choose from and close by for your dinning pleasure. We have prepared a book with all the information you will need to make your stay a memorable one. You may also decide to take advantage of our outdoor cooking area !! We Welcome you to join us.

We were traveling and made a last-minute plan to stay in Myrtle Beach. Reached out to Raymond and Barbara and they were more than accommodating for our overnight stay. The place was clean, perfectly appointed, comfortable, and easily accessed. We’re super appreciative of such a great find and even greater hosts.

Shelby family vacation, my husband and I, our 2 adult children and our 2 grandchildren.

This place was very nice. It worked out perfect for our family.We walked to the beach at least twice a day. Had most of everything we needed. So sorry for the inconvenience of setting off the fire detector just about every time we used the oven. Thank you!

The property was beautiful. The layout was set up in a great way to keep a watchful eye on the kids. Thanks to everything the owners left us we were able to keep the place clean as well as leaving it close to as clean as we found it.

Amazing beach house in excellent location!

Our family of 7 (ages 8-adult) stayed 5 days at the Marlin for our first vacation to Myrtle Beach, and the experience was nothing short of fantastic! The home was beautiful, clean, and cozy. Ray and Barb had everything covered to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The location was within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and multiple mini golf courses. The pool was great to have during the extremely hot days when we did not want to venture to the beach, and it was a short 10 minute drive to many other attractions (Broadway at the Beach, the boardwalk, and the Hollywood Wax Museum to name a few). The Marlin is an affordable gem of a home, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
