Bright end unit, Ocean Views, 1st floor, Pool, large beach, Direct access !!!

10/10 Excellent
"Such a great place to stay. Bright and inviting, cozy - just perfect for a getaway. The building is not beach front, but there is a lovely view of ocean from the front porch. Great place for morning coffee. The back deck space is also a great coffee spot, protected from the rain and more private than a lot of the other balconies that face the pool area. My visit was a mix of sun and storm and this place was perfect - a quick walk to the sunny beach and a cozy place to cook a meal in and snuggle up with a book while it rained. Super easy check in and check out, quick and friendly responses from the hosts. Will definitely book here again!"

"The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast buffet was better than Hampton Inn, Myrtle Beach, comfortable pillows. And on a rainy day, they offered menu items for purchase so you didn’t have to go out in the torrential downpour. The tiki bar was very nice."

"Perfect spot for a couple. Nice quiet end of the beach. Loved the view - in fact we got a to-go steamer pot from Cape Fear Boil Company rather than eat out so we could appreciate the view. Check in was a breeze. Had everything we needed. We were only there for three days so we didn’t really cook except for the steamer pot. We appreciated that they weren’t stingy with paper towels, toilet paper and such. We weren’t there for the pool so can’t comment on that - not quite sure where it was. Enjoyed our stay a lot."
