Great Place !
Blue Crab was the perfect getaway. I was looking for a place close to Myrtle Beach and close to the ocean. The house was one street from the beach and at an access. Surfside is a nice beach, Myrtle Beach and Murrells Inlet were a close drive. The house was clean and well stocked. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. The owner was very communicative and polite . I am going to be staying there again and would highly recommended this rental.

First Stay at Surfside Beach
The size was perfect for our 2 families. Although we weren't oceanfront, the house is very convenient with a quick walk across the street to the beach. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed two decks and the shared pool was right down the back steps. There were a few items that needed to be fixed or improved.

Spacious, clean, excellent location
We loved our stay at the Blue Crab! It was clean and had a great layout for our three-generation family group. There was enough space for everyone, and the beach was so close. We could walk to restaurants, the pier, and ice cream shops. The pool was clean and was never crowded. There was plenty of parking. The hosts responded quickly when we had questions. The beach amenities (chairs, toys) were helpful as well. We will definitely keep this house on our list for future stays!

Don't believe everything you read!
The reviews made it seem much better than what it is. It was disappointing. For the price, including the extra charges, I expected more. Windows leak when it rained, kitchen has no extras. Whole place needs some TLC.

The house was beautiful, spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It was so convenient! We were able to walk to the playground, the farmer’s market, and to shops, bars, and restaurants. The whole family from age 7 to age 67 had a wonderful time!
