Once Upon a Tide - Beachfront Condo
Windswept Villas - Relax with your coffee or a drink on the balcony of this remodeled 3rd floor Condo with beautiful views of the ocean! Even better, wake up in the King size bed as you look out the 8ft. expansive glass doors as the morning sun rises up to meet the horizon. Whatever you choose, you’ll love the feeling of being at here at Once Upon a Tide! This building is directly beachfront with private access to the beach or our saltwater pool. Calm, relaxing atmosphere as you enjoy everything Surfside Beach has to offer. This unit has a fully equipped kitchen (both a regular & Keurig coffee maker), full bath, lots of storage and in-unit washer & dryer! Cable TV and high-speed internet to reach out to the outside world if you need to.... OR just sit back, watch the waves & dolphins and let time slowly relax both your mind and body. The sofa reclines on each end as you sit back at night and watch cable TV. Shelving on each side of the bed with outlets equipped to charge your devices while you sleep. Bluetooth speaker/light/night light/fans allows you to listen to you favorite tunes while showering or soaking in the tub. Beach chairs included with rental. Once you’re here, you’ll never want to leave! Unfortunately there is NOT an elevator and the unit is on the 3rd floor. However the view is worth every step!!!!
Walking distance to Piers, restaurants and beach shopping or just a short drive away from Murrells Inlet, dubbed the Seafood Capital of South Carolina; where you’ll find a wide variety of seafoods, steaks, pizza and even burgers, as you dine while looking out over the Inlet and Marsh as the sun goes down. You can even stroll down the Marsh Walk and listen to a variety of bands/music.
Just bring a few necessities, the one you love, and enjoy your best vacation ever at Once Upon a Tide! Sorry, no pets allowed. Additionally, plug-ins are being for those who are sensitive or may have allergies to scented products.
Linen package included. Windswept Villas is a small condo building boasting only 12 units. Unfortunately, there is NOT an elevator. Additionally, due to HOA Bylaws, each unit has one(1) parking space per unit and guests cannot invite others to park on the property, use the pool or use the beach access.”

First, communication for this trip was excellent, and that is the foundation of a good stay. The ocean view from the condo can't be beat (I am thankful to have found such a place), and the additional security placed on the ocean gate by the pool was a good addition to the many attractions of this building.
Had such a wonderful time and would stay here again!!! Great location and place was amazing!! Huge thank you to Teresa for being such a wonderful host!
The view was amazing. We spent a great deal of time on the balcony, day and night time views. Awesome. The room was very clean and just the right size for my wife and I. All communication with the host was very concise, clear, and timely. We had no complaints and will be staying at this unit in the future. We highly recommend it.
My husband & I spent two weeks at Teresa's beach condo, it was perfect! Condo is so very clean and the most supplied rental we have ever stayed in (she has thought of so much). The beach views from the deck were amazing! Such a peaceful & relaxing stay!!
We loved this condo. It was the cleanest unit that we've ever rented. The unit matched the description perfectly. Views from the living area and the balcony were spectacular, particularly if you like to see the sunrise. Check-in was simple, and communicating with the host was even easier. She is a great host. We would definitely stay in this condo again.
The condo was well stocked and thoughtfully detailed. We loved the view of the beach from the deck, and waking up in the morning looking at the ocean. It was a wonderful stay.
Spent my Birthday weekend and this beautiful condo! Our Host was very helpful and friendly! The view was amazing from the balcony and the beach is only a few feet away. Plenty of great places to eat and we would love to come back soon!
Cute, clean space;). Location was wonderful. Amenities were great… pool and ocean! Great view. Only down fall is a LOT of stairs to climb each day if on 3rd floor like we were.
Very nice, clean condo with everything you will need for a perfect stay. Easy walk to the pier that had multiple restaurants near it but also just a short drive to Murrells Inlet Marsh Walk. The best part was the incredible ocean view off of the balcony. Teresa was a great host and we hope to be back again soon!
We had a wonderful visit over a 4 day weekend. The home was very clean, up to date and comfortable to rest in. The view was spectacular to wake up looking at the ocean at sunrise from the bed !
I enjoyed the area so much, i ended up purchasing a home in the Surfside Beach area. Great ocean views, Great beaches for walks, Great restaurants and meeting of new friends every step of the way.
I highly recommend the area and this amazing beachfront condo.
We were very impressed with the property, and the area. The view of the ocean from our balcony was fantastic and Teresa was a great host, checking in on a timely manner.
A very cute up to date condo with fantastic views. Also a very clean and spotless unit. A great place for a couple to get away. Teresa is a great host, very friendly and will answer all your questions. A great place to stay, will be staying there again.
This is a fantastic condo with a fabulous view. The host is exceptional and communicated everything we needed to know. A must stay if you’re in the area.
Holiday Visit to Surfside Beach. A change from our usual summer visit. We had a great time. Relaxed and enjoyable. Enjoyed the Christmas show at Carolina Opry and the Night of A Thousand Candles at Brookgreen Gardens.
Wife and I came down to pickup our daughter at Coastal Carolina. The unit was wonderful as was the beach and beach view. Unit was as listed and we’ll be coming back!!
