Very pet-friendly property with good location
Property was located in Oceanside Village, a gated community that has great amenities. Property is pretty close to the beach—a short golf cart ride. And the golf cart is included with the rental, a nice plus. The house is pretty spacious, though the living room is on the small side. Nice screened-in porch and fenced backyard, which my dogs loved! Fenced-in back and side yards are a major plus of the property for pet owners. Kitchen was nicely appointed, and the house had lots of nice amenities overall—beach towels, beach chairs, a beach cooler, etc. The host was very easy to communicate with and was very solicitous. Two of the three beds weren’t very comfortable. Overall, a nice property and a good experience.

Great experience
We had a wonderful stay at Flip Flop Zone. We had a hiccup in the beginning but was taken care of rather quickly. The place was beautiful and clean. We enjoyed the front porch very much. Our two dogs loved the dog park and getting lots of walks and rides on the golf cart (which was a great add on). We enjoyed that very much. We would definitely stay again!

Super cute place with access to oceanfront parking and fenced yard for dogs!!!
We had a great time staying at Flip Flop Zone. It’s was super cute and a great place for our family and fur babies! The fenced yard and access to oceanfront parking for the neighborhood were icing on the cake! The host is great and was very quick to respond to my questions and updates. Highly recommend!

Outstanding Communication!
I have to start by giving Tammy Alves a huge shout out! We had to contact her a few times for unexpected matters and she always answered our texts immediately or called me. The property is lovely, my Granddaughter really loved the Golf Cart. I loved the private beach parking for the community and the short walk to the beach. Only problem was I have a small poodle and she could get out of the fence. We will definitely book this property again. Tammy - Spartanburg, SC

Best vacation ever.
The property was perfect. Very clean and all of our needs were anticipated and taken care of. Having the golf cart was a great perk and allowing us to bring our 2 dogs made the trip our best vacation ever. Can’t wait to come back and stay again.

Great place
It was exactly as listed. Perfect place for me and my parents. Getting to bring our little pups was such a treat. Loved the community, the golf cart and private beach. We had a hiccup when we arrived but it was quickly taken care of by the owners. Good communication. was clean. The yard could use some TLC but it was nice to have a fenced in area for the pups. I would definitely come back.

Flip Flop Zone
Excellent location for Bike Week events down south. The check in process is fairly easy. Trucks and trailers get parked in a lot with security. This is a neighborhood of mostly trailers with built on decks and additions etc. The master shower is small (I'm a retired Submariner so I got flashbacks).

Great Family Beach House
Our stay was wonderful. It was the perfect house for myself, husband, two kids, and two dogs. The yard was a perfect size. We absolutely loved the screen in porch. The shower in the master bath was extremely small, which I believe is noted, but obviously still usable. The house is 2 bed & 2 bath, but feels like it offers so much more space with the open concept. We absolutely love the neighborhood, being gated, pools, and private beach access. Definitely would want to stay here again!

About the host

Host profile image
Thank you for looking at our property. I manage and own this home and am local to Myrtle Beach. I moved to SC in the summer of 2020 from Massachusetts and love the south!

Why they chose this property

This property was purchased in 2021. Both my sister, Tammy, and I own the property with our husbands. We use it for family vacations and holidays and also have a second property located 2 doors away (VRBO Prop ID: 2495208). With a large family of 10, we needed 2 houses to accommodate our time together.

What makes this property unique

The home is very cozy/ bright and comfortable and we are excited to share it with you. The screened porch is perfect for morning coffee and late afternoon cocktails. If you have a large group, you can inquiry about both properties. The VRBO # for the Falcon house is #2495208. Please feel free to message with any questions.
