Just a short walk to get to the beach, IGA and some amazing restaurants. Highly recommend this cute little condo for your next trip! ##### Morgan T.

Oct 3, 2024 #### Fall shorehaven The amenities are up to date and that is refreshing ##### Wesley J. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert E A. Sep 15, 2024 #### A perfect getaway We couldn't be more pleased with our stay. I stayed in many rentals and this one is the best layout I've found yet. Each bedroom has its own door to the deck and each has its own bathroom. It is an easy walk to the beach. The location is quiet and the only noise we heard were drunks yelling from an adjoining highrise deck which is no fault if this property. In my next visit to Myrtle Beach I'd choose this location over any other and I would have no reservations about recommending this property to anyone. ##### Robert E A. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Best Western Ocean Sands Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Best-Western-Ocean-Sands-Beach-Resort.h64479.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandy Beach Oceanfront Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Sandy-Beach-Oceanfront-Resort.h1952710.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Resort Hilton Head Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Sonesta-Resort-Hilton-Head-Island.h2618.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Enclave Myrtle Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Ocean-Enclave-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h33213151.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Cove Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Beach-Cove-Resort.h1670641.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Ocean Boulevard](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Ocean-Boulevard.h982930.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sands Resorts by Palmera](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Coral-Sands-Resorts-By-Palmera.h5963275.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Bennett](https://www.expedia.ca/Charleston-Hotels-Hotel-Bennett.h22649862.Hotel-Information) > > [The Dewberry Charleston](https://www.expedia.ca/Charleston-Hotels-The-Dewberry-Charleston.h12880056.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Beachfront Resort & Spa Hilton Head Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Marriott-Hilton-Head-Resort-Spa.h583363.Hotel-Information) > > [North Beach Resort & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-North-Beach-Resort-Villas.h2923153.Hotel-Information) > > [Waterside by Spinnaker Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Waterside-Resort-By-Spinnaker-Resorts.h4988963.Hotel-Information) > > [Bay View Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Bay-View-Resort.h1695495.Hotel-Information) > > [The Charleston Place](https://www.expedia.ca/Charleston-Hotels-Charleston-Place.h28504.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hilton Head Island by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hilton-Head-Island.h1341.Hotel-Information) > > [Island Links Resort by Palmera](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Island-Links-Resort-By-Palmera.h5963273.Hotel-Information) > > [Emeline](https://www.expedia.ca/Charleston-Hotels-Emeline.h8890.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Charleston Riverview](https://www.expedia.ca/Charleston-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Charleston-Riverview.h27705698.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Sands North On the Boardwalk](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Holiday-Sands-North-On-The-Boardwalk.h17829882.Hotel-Information) > > [Avista Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Avista-Resort.h1191290.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-The-Westin-Hilton-Head-Island-Resort-Spa.h22170.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Palms Villas at Port Royal Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Ocean-Palms-Villas-At-Port-Royal-Resort.h6532283.Hotel-Information) > > [Montage Palmetto Bluff](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Montage-Palmetto-Bluff.h1105531.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach House Resort Hilton Head](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Island-Hotels-Beach-House-Hilton-Head.h20657.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Hideaway by Five Star Properties](https://www.expedia.ca/Hilton-Head-Hotels-Heritage-Hideaway-By-Five-Star-Properties.h58071539.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Watch Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Sea-Watch-Resort.h1825902.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Pavilion Resort on the Boardwalk](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-At-The-Pavilion.h880935.Hotel-Information) > > [Oceans One Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Oceans-One-Resort.h10387149.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Myrtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Myrtle-Beach-Resort.h19688.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsurfer Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Myrtle-Beach-Hotels-Windsurfer-Hotel.h11546031.Hotel-Information)
