LOCATION:
I've been to the Myrtle Beach area a handful of times, so I can say that this area was less "hectic and congested with traffic" than further south. There were a couple of restaurants within walking distance located in other resort complexes. The nearest Walmart was 3 miles away. The beach is just a walk out the door.
AMENITIES:
You have the beach right there, there is also a small pool area with chairs. There is an elevator, and each floor has a trash chute at the end of the hallway. There is ample parking. You must display your parking pass, and owner was able to give us two since we had two vehicles. Free Wifi, easy to connect and good signal. Washer and dryer in unit, and a full kitchen of course. You must bring your own HE laundry soap and dryer sheets though.
CONDO:
Condo was clean, but showing a little age, but certainly, that didn't make much difference to me. The master bedroom has a large window overlooking beach in the far corner, and it's own entrance to the patio area. Patio had two comfy chairs, ottomans and a small table. I would urge the host to add another small table, or add a larger table in place of the small one. Large spaces for luggage and belongings. Both bedrooms had TV's as did the living room but I didn't use that. There are two bathrooms. I did note that the shower in the master bathroom never could get warm - not even after a 10 minute shower. Presumably the other shower did because the other guests did not complain to me. They were working on water during my stay and water got shut off at one point for all residents. Not sure if that was the reason. I didn't mind a cool shower too much, but this might need to be looked into for future guests if not a fluke. Most people like a hot shower.
ATMOSPHERE:
Generally didn't hear a lot of noise from the other residents, there were nightly fireworks being set off by other people nearby. They didn't last more than 20 minutes and it didn't go too late, but was super loud even with doors closed. The pool area wasn't busy at all in the mornings up til about 10 am, or in the evenings after 4pm. During peak times around the noon hour, pool was full. Noise level depended on the rowdiness of the group there and if they were drinking, so it varied.
OVERALL: I liked the location and that was the best part of this. The washer and dryer in the unit was a huge perk to me as well. I felt it was a large enough space for the 4 of us
