Perfect for a little family getaway

We’ve stayed in this condo several times now. The location can’t be beat as far as you can park the car and walk anywhere you need to go. Several places to eat, shop and enjoy! Having the shower down by the pool area is super convenient as well!

Beatiful view

This place was clean and had beautiful views. I was surprised that there was no elevator to the 4th floor. The Couch wasn't worth sitting on and the bed was very old.

I loved it there!

It was right next to the pier. I could listen to the band from the balcony without having to go over there.

Sept beach trip

Room was dated but acceptably clean. Balcony overlooking the beach was the best part . 4 flights of stairs was challenging but that was explained in the listing. There is not enough parking for the amount of rooms and there is no backup plan. I had to double park one night and come down the next morning and repark after a spot came open. I inquired about lack of parking and was told they would get back to me. The pier music and keroke was loud but we were not bothered by it. It always shutdown promptly at 11pm each night and it was relatively quite after that. If you don't like loud music with a mixture of bad keroke then I would not suggest this place

Oceanfront, short walk to the beach, next to Garden City pier & walking distance to shops, etc

The condo was nice overall. It met our needs for a short stay. I contacted management about our unit not having a parking pass and someone brought it over a couple hours after check-in. The condo unit was clean but the pool area could use some attention. The location is a positive & negative. We expected music from the pier until 11pm each night, it was not an issue. However, it remained loud & noisy, some nights until 1:30am. It was the crowd from the pier & the parking lot beside the condo complex. The noise started again between 5:30-6am each morning when an employee from the pier would throw glass beer bottles in the dumpster, 1 by 1. At one point we checked to make sure all windows were closed all the way because of the noise. With the noise factor, I wouldn’t recommend the property to anyone seeking a quiet stay or those with small children who wake easily. Another issue, which we didn’t really incur until the last night was parking. There’s not enough for the complex. There are 21 units total and 14 parking spots. Finally, the keyless door entry is a great feature, but the 10 digit code was a nuisance. It’s totally understood that property management/ owners cannot control the noise factor, but I feel like renters should be aware.

Scorcher in Garden City

The place has a great location, but we had an awful stay. The air was out the day we arrived. We contacted them that evening and again the next morning, due to our room being 85 degrees and climbing. We were able to contact the nationwide property group who was very easy to reach, but had to follow up multiple time because they were having trouble reaching the local property manager. They finally reached out and said no one could come by till Monday (the day we checked out). We requested a new room or some fans to help cool the room down, especially since we were traveling with young kids. I even talked to a locals and they even said their are 24 hour emergency service available for just this situation. We were told that the local agency would contact us about a solution, but it took us numerous calls and a whole day for them to finally deliver 2 small box fans to our room around 6:00 pm. Even with the fans though our room never got below 84. When we checked out the room was day at 87. I requested for the local property manager to call me, which I was told would reach out to me today, but still haven’t heard anything.

Lovely ocean view!

We loved staying right on the balcony looking at the ocean and watching my grandson fishing on the pier and not having to worry about a thing in the world! We will be back!

Garden City Getaway

Spectacular view of the ocean and pier. Had some issues with our stay and despite several attempts to contact Vacasa, we could not get the issues resolved. There was supposed to be a parking pass in our room when we arrived but there was none, emailed Vacasa twice and spoke with someone on the phone who said they would call us back (but they never did) so, we risked our car being towed during our trip. When we arrived the bed in the master bedroom was not made, so I had to make it. Otherwise the unit appeared clean. The music did not bother my family but if you don’t like loud music (from the pier) playing until 11pm you probably need to stay somewhere else. You will get your exercise on the stairs up to your room since there is no elevator and this unit is on the top floor. The unit was small for our family of four and the television’s in the unit were tiny. I liked that the unit had keyless entry. Cooking supplies was minimal but enough for my families needs. Beautiful beach that I will return to but not sure I would stay here again.

Good other than parking issue..

Been to Murrells Inlet several times so what I expected and that's a good thing. Only issue we had was parking, twice I had to park illegally on the street and around the corner as there were several unauthorized cars parked in the apartments lot.

No elevator only outside to stairs to 4th floor.

The dangerous prevented us from staying in the room. It was to steep to climb and especially carry luggage up the flights. The Vacasa folks did not care.

Too many stairs

Nice view and very clean. Eight flights of stairs was too many for 65 year olds. That should have been included in the description. This makes me hesitant to book with you again. You're comunication skills are lacking.
