As Good As It Gets: Luxury Retreat w/ Game Room, Steps from Beach!

As Good As It Gets
1744 S Waccamaw Dr., Murrells Inlet, SC
Beach access across the street!

Tucked between the ocean and inlet, this elevated coastal retreat blends laid-back luxury with modern comfort—featuring a Tesla charger, in-home gym, game room with a custom “Shelby” pool table, multiple TVs, and cozy gathering spaces. With a backyard oasis, elevator access, and a spacious second-floor living area with a gourmet kitchen and seating for 24, it’s designed for unforgettable group getaways and effortless entertaining.

PRIVATE POOL
Pool heat is available for $550 + tax (April 1-May 31, September 1-October 31), only if temperatures are above 60°F even at night

PRIVATE SPA
This is an open-air spa, not an enclosed hot tub. Complimentary spa heat is provided year round however, because it is open-air, the desired water temperature may not always be achievable when outdoor temperatures—day and night—are below 60°F. Spa heat is most effective during mild or warmer weather conditions.

Memorial week 40th yr

We enjoyed our stay and wanted to rent for next yr , that was a terrible experience … we were quoted a price and i asked for the contract … they changed the price sighting the owners ( who own the property management Bask Away) had increased the price because of market analysis … thankful we found a beach front five star house that will accommodate our large family group in 2026

Great location

The beach house is in an excellent location. It is very close to the beach with the access point being almost directly across the street. The house had a great setup and my whole family felt comfortable during our stay. Most of us felt the beds were very comfortable. One person in our party of 10 thought they were too soft. The outdoor amenities were some of the best I’ve seen. We loved the pool, hot tub, outdoor television, outdoor shower, putting green and basketball hoop. I thought there was some room for improvement when it came to cleanliness. The floors especially seemed like they could have been cleaner. Unfortunately I felt like I spent a lot of time at the beginning of the week reaching out about a variety of issues we were having with the rental. When we arrived the hot water was not working in half the bedrooms, both keurigs weren’t working and the peloton that was advertised didn’t have the cords to allow it to work. They did fix the hot water on Sunday but it sounded like it was a temporary fix that would need a permanent solution. The keurigs were eventually replaced. The issue with the peloton was never rectified. Several of us noticed bugs in the house and at least 3 palmetto bugs were found inside. Not the end of the world but I’ve been staying in Myrtle beach for several years and this was the first time I’ve seen a palmetto bug inside. Overall we had a nice time and give this house high marks for the location and outdoor amenities.

Truly is as good as it gets

Beautiful home. Great location. Wonderful amenities. Had a great family vacation with 10 adults and 8 children. We’re a sports family and besides the beach and pool, we had great fun with 3 generations playing pickleball, ping pong, and mini golf.

It really is….

As good as it gets is an accurate name for this property! Indoor and outdoor amenities were well planned, and just a few hundred yards from the beach. Location is quiet but close enough to the pier for kids to escape. Highly recommend! Tim
