VRBO doesn't let me do half stars...I wanted to give a 4.5 out of 5 rating.
It is on the highest floor of the beach cove resort- really could not imagine a better view from the balcony. Beach views from the balcony are absolutely stunning.
Also the condo is in an awesome location. Southern part of north myrtle beach so within a five minute drive to barefoot landing and grocery stores, a twenty minute drive to downtown myrtle beach and twenty minutes to the cherry grove beach area. Really loved the location. Also on the right side of the beach there is only one other condo before the high rises stop making for just a short walk on the beach to find a quieter spot. The condo is on windy hill beach- it is really wide and great for long walks on the beach! The beach has a lot of shells in the middle section and is clean. We loved it!
The unit itself is very modern and up to date. Cute beach themed decor, decently stocked kitchen and bathroom. Modern appliances- smart tvs that are larger than those shown.
Julie was very responsive. There was never a time that I texted or called her that I didn't receive either an immediate response or one within five minutes. I had never stayed at a condo before so asked lots of questions before and she answered all of my many emails which was very appreciated.
Small things we loved: keyless entry, comfortable beds, extra blanket, pots/pans in the kitchen for cooking some of our meals for the trip, well stocked bathroom, "blinds" that allowed for ocean views and sounds at night, comfortable AC.
Suggestions for Julie to improve upon her already wonderful condo: higher chairs on the balcony, shower head with more pressure, need for an additional full length mirror in the condo, and beach chairs would be nice. Also we typically go barefoot but the floor was a little dirty to do that (most of the condo with the exception of the floor was clean).
Negatives that have nothing to do with Julie: the beach cove resort itself outside of the condo unit wasn't as clean as we would like. Pool areas were nice but the lobby area wasn't the best. They were doing construction and were loud outside the condo one morning. None of this was Julie's fault and would not stop me from renting here again.
Overall pleased and would rent this exact unit again. Loved the beach and had a blast!! Thanks for sharing Julie. I'm done with hotels and had a great vacation.
