This was our 2nd time staying in this specific condo. It was our 3rd time at this property. Jeff(the host) is very hospitable. He always quickly answers any questions. We love this location! It’s a quick drive to everything! The ocean view for morning coffee is unbeatable! The easy access to the beach is a huge bonus! We go at peak season and there is still plenty of room on the beach for everyone. It’s never too crowded. The condo is clean, updated, and nicely decorated. Our plan is to return to this same spot next year for our family vacation. We love Garden City so much!

Our stay at the Beach House

Our stay at this property was excellent from start to finish. The condo was clean, spacious , and tastefully decorated. The beds were comfortable, and everything we needed was avaliable. The host was friendly and prompt to respond when I had a question. We are former residents of Garden City and now vacation there annually. This is my favorite place that we have stayed on our trips. I would definitely book it again.

Clean, Quiet, Great Stay

Clean condo. Quiet complex, which was surprising considering we stayed Memorial Day weekend and the complex looked busy. Easy check-in/out. For any parents interested, the closet in bedroom #2 is just big enough to fit a travel sized pack n play (Guava Lotus) with the doors open. This provided a nice little separation for our baby from toddler. Excellent find. Great stay. Would book again.

Very nice place to stay

Sadly the weather was not good but this is great place to stay. 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, nice size washer and dryer, nice kitchen and decent view of the ocean. It's a great location, easy half mile walk to the Garden City pier, short drive to Surfside or Murrells Inlet. Bring your own linens which I actually prefer. Would stay again for sure.

Great place to stay

Enjoyed a week long stay at Jill’s Beach Retreat. Great location and access to the beach was terrific. The decking to the beach and around the pool was wonderful. The pool was larger than other places in the area and well maintained. Condo was well stocked with dishes, appliances and cookware. The owner was extremely easy to reach and was very responsive.

Beautiful ocean view home with Everything!

This was our 4th year staying at the Beach House. It is an incredibly beautiful and clean property and our condo could not have been better. Everything we needed was there from the entertainment, kitchen bedrooms. There is a wonderful ocean view and we were literally a minutes walk to the ocean. The pool area is spacious and clean with a huge tanning deck that is also wonderful for watching the ocean or fireworks as we did on the 4th of July. Jeff is very involved with this condo and answered all of our questiins, gave us great tips for our trip and even though we had no problems at all, i know he was only a text or email away. The Beach House is our favorite location in Garden City and you can't ask for a better host than we had. Thank yiu again so much for sharing your beautiful condo with our family. It was a great trip and we already can't wait till next year.

PERFECT LOCATION!

This is our 2nd year staying on this property, 1st year in this specific condo. We absolutely love the location of this property. It has close and direct access to the beach. The pool is a nice bonus to cool off in. We love the quick drive to Murrells Inlet to get great food! Jeff is a wonderful host. He was always available to answers questions prior to and after check in. The condo is great! Very clean and updated, large washer and dryer, comfy beds, smart TV’s. I had requested linens from Palmetto linen rentals a week before we got there. They were waiting by the door when we arrived. Super simple process. We highly recommend this rental and plan to return in the future.

Perfect little getaway

This was by far the best little getaway. We chose this location as a “schools out” celebratory trip for our kids. From the super easy self check-in the the great accommodations in the room, it was a breeze! The balcony looks right over the ocean and it truly just steps away from the beach! Perfect for sunrise/sunset walks!! It’s less than half of a mile from an awesome arcade and ice cream shop! The owner was INCREDIBLY accommodating with some very last minute requests (at our own fault), and the condo was very clean and had all modern appliances! Definitely recommend and definitely plan to return!
