Great location with lots of amenities
We enjoyed staying here and appreciate that it was pet friendly! Great quiet golf cart friendly neighborhood close to the beach. Three pools including one indoor pool. House was well equipped and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Bring your own beach towels, and a sharp cooking knife. We also needed non-stick frying pans (which we bought at Old Time Pottery) which we will bring home.

Ultimate Family Getaway Steps from the Beach!
Our recent stay at this Surfside Beach rental was a dream come true for our family. The close proximity to the beach meant endless fun in the sun with our little ones. The provided linens made packing a breeze, and the family-friendly pool was a hit with everyone. What truly made this rental stand out was its thoughtfulness towards families. The kid-friendly setup ensured our peace of mind, and having a golf cart at our disposal was a delightful bonus that our children loved. A highlight for us was the fact that our furry family member could join in on the fun. Watching our dog play on the beach brought extra smiles to our faces. In short, this rental is a fantastic choice for families seeking a memorable beach vacation. It's tailored perfectly for a relaxing and enjoyable experience for all ages. We're already planning our next visit!

We had a great time. There was enough room for our four adults and two children. It was great having a washer and dryer to use. Our grandsons really liked riding in the golf cart. It made it convenient to get to the beach.

Perfect!
We absolutely loved everything about this property! Very clean, homey, and comfortable. Our favorite spot was the screened in porch. We appreciated the location and not as much 'traffic' as we've seen in the past, although we have never had an issue with the busier places. The owners are very accommodating and made sure our stay was exactly what we were looking for. You will not regret staying here!

Sleeping with fleas
Our place had fleas they were all over us in the morning, the owners were very responsible and reimbursed us right away. But VRBO has been terrible. We were on the phone for two hours before we got a hotel room for one night, then you guys actually sent us an email with the same flea infested house as a recommendation to stay. We called two more times only to be put on hold for another hour with no help. We had to book our own hotel for three days and we are still waiting on a reimbursement. We went home early because our vacation was ruined.

Excellent Vacation
The owners are exceptional, great communication. The house was very clean and smelled very clean when we arrived. Kitchen was stocked with cookware and there were some cleaning supplies. Having the golf cart was icing on the cake . We are already planning to rent this house for next year.

Memorial Day Weekend
Dead bugs plus some live ones. I guess the cleaning fee didn’t cover the last times cleaning. A nice property that has been rented very hard. The great technology VRBO uses left me out standing in the rain. Everybody had their money and I was left to deal with a surly administrative office and security staff. We enjoyed the 1970’s golf cart that was governed to 10pmh? We would’ve taken more trash out but there were no bags and the trash can outside was loaded to the brim. My final VRBO as it was not a good value. Good luck.

This is our 3rd or 4th time staying at this location and it’s my favorite. Everything is always very clean and ready for us when we arrive and Theresa is very accessible if I have any questions. We absolutely love the patio area. Morning or evening it’s always the perfect place to relax.

Delightful place
We only stayed 2 nights but we were VERY impressed with the cleanliness, decor, comfy beds and furniture and thoughtful items in this house. Upon check in we reached out homeowners and they were quick and pleased to help. There were items like chargers, speaker, passes, coupons and local info available for all renters. It’s the little things that make you feel welcome and they nailed it.

About the host

Hosted by Reggie Portello

Host profile image
During the COVID-19 pandemic, we decided to take an exciting leap and purchased the Blue Seahorse, sight unseen, in a neighborhood we’ve known for over 20 years. While we’re not retired yet, we've stepped away from the grind of working crazy hours to impress others. We wanted a regular getaway to relax and recharge, and we’re planning to make the Blue Seahorse our retirement home in the next decade or so.

Why they chose this property

We had been casually searching for the past 5 to 7 years, and everything just came together the summer of 2020. With life feeling so chaotic, we knew it was the right time! There were three or four properties in our final selection, so I sent my two nephews from New Jersey to South Carolina to choose from the top three. The Blue Seahorse stood out as the best mix of price, space, location, and upgrades. We have big plans for this property and look forward to getting input from our guests on what should be prioritized.

What makes this property unique

Here’s what we've completed so far: added a new patio with both living and dining areas, redecorated the dining room, living room, porch, and two bedrooms. The primary bedroom, called the Nautical Nest, sleeps two (or more if you're feeling adventurous), while the second bedroom, known as the Garden, accommodates 2-4 guests. You can enjoy meals in the Sunflower Dining Room and unwind in the Lighthouse Lanai. We've also upgraded to a new propane BBQ for outdoor cooking!
