Sandy Feet Retreat is conveniently located close to many of the area's best attractions. The home is only a few blocks from the neighborhood park/playground. The Surfside Pier is 3/4 mile from the home and offers pier fishing, ice cream, and an oceanfront restaurant. There are several other excellent restaurants in this area; River City Grill (Excellent Burgers), Pizza Hyena, Chimichanga Lama (Great Mexican), Gracious Pig (Yummy BBQ), and Neil and Pams (Fun Karaoke and Great Breakfast). Garden City Beach is directly South of Surfside Beach and ends on a peninsula at the mouth of Murrells Inlet. Other attractions include Marlin Quay Marina, Gulf Stream Café, Garden City Pier, Original Sam’s Corner, and Sara J’s Seafood Restaurant.
Just a few minutes South of Surfside Beach is Murrells Inlet, a seaside community that is considered to be the 'Seafood Capital of South Carolina". Once primarily a fishing village, the town is best known for the Murrells Inlet Marshwalk, a half-mile boardwalk overlooking a pristine salt marsh, and many award-winning seafood and barbecue restaurants along Highway 17 business. Brookgreen Gardens is also located in Murrells Inlet and features several themed gardens with American figurative sculptures, trails through several nature reserve ecosystems, and the Lowcountry Zoo. They display a beautiful Christmas event, “Night of a Thousand Candles”, that has spectacular lights and is simply a must-see.
If you’re looking for places to shop, Inlet Square Mall, the Market Commons, Coastal Grand, Myrtle Beach Mall, Broadway at the Beach, Barefoot Landing, two Tanger Shopping Outlets, and many more shopping facilities are all within an easy drive from Surfside Beach. Looking for some entertainment, take in a show at Medieval Times, Pirates Voyage, The Carolina Opry, and Legends in Concert. The Ripley's Aquarium, Wonder Works, Alligator Adventure, Hard Rock Cafe, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, and The Pavilion Nostalgia Park are other fun options.
Whatever your heart desires, whatever your need, the South Strand offers a little something on everyone’s to-do list. We have a variety of wonderful restaurants, fantastic retail stores, creative miniature golf, exceptional charter fishing, exciting water sports…and of course, nothing but relaxation.

Had a great time.

We had a great time staying in surfside. This house was exactly what we needed. It was a short walk to the beach. We ubered to the Marshwalk for $11 and walked to Neal & Pam’s in 10 minutes. The house was very clean and had everything we needed including beach chairs. Would stay here again.

Nice home with great location

House was clean and well stocked. Comfy beds. Perfect location. Very close to the beach...376 steps from the front door to the water at low tide...my husband tracked it! Close to great restaurants as well. We were able to take the golf cart almost everywhere we went...such fun! Hosts were fantastic with communication. Definitely recommend and would stay there again.

Nice for the location and price

Pros: Location (~1 block from beach and <1mile from surfside drive) Beautifully decorated Reasonably priced Clean Cons: Outdated kitchen and bathrooms and low quality appliances There are no supplies - no pantry items, laundry supplies, or beach items Sheets and towels were not included (which I found weird) The towel rack fell off the wall and the kitchen fluorescent cover was cracked and falling off (owner was very apologetic and apparently fixed this right after we left)

Surfside Memories

We came for a Jeep event. Never having been to Surfside, we really didn’t know what we were in for. To say we were pleasantly surprised is an understatement. Location to the beach was an easy short walk, which we did often. There are plenty of places to eat within walking distance (if walking is your thing, if not there is a golf cart onsite for rent which would give you more options). The house was comfortable, giving us everything we needed. Only downside was we didn’t want to leave. Would definitely rent again if in the area.

Great vacation!

This is our second time renting this property and we have loved it both times! Plenty of space for our family of six plus our dog, very short walk to the beach, and a very well stocked kitchen for nights cooking in. The location is quiet as the house is set a little back from the road, which is great for the kids! There’s also a fenced playground just down the road. Communication with the host was always fast and easy, and check in/out was clear and easy. Will definitely stay again!

Perfect Spot

Had a really nice stay. House is well supplied, comfortable & great location (1/2 block to beach access). Set back from the road so even if there is traffic it doesn't really affect the house. Owners were very responsive to questions and helpful with our needs.
