Jun 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Beautiful location, but main bed was very uncomfortable. Fridge didn't seal unless you pushed the bottom of the door. Had to buy our own toilet paper and paper towels, even though it was stated they would be there. Overall a good place to stay as a family. ##### Ashley L. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### MVB B. Jul 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great location and the unit was clean. Perfect space for a family of 4. Kitchen was adequate for cooking needs. The negative is that the mattress and box spring could use updating as they appear to be very old, and it was uncomfortable. ##### MVB B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan M. Nov 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location Couldn’t ask for a better location. Laundry room is free to use which is a first. The condo itself was good size and not cramped. Kitchen had the bare minimum but was fine for us. ##### Ryan M. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tami W. Jun 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### A nice unit Overall a nice experience at this property. There have been some recent updates to the unit, but it is still pretty dated. Especially the bathrooms. Despite this, it was comfortable, and the location is really great. You can't beat the views and the beach access, and we liked that it was centrally located, making day trips to the northern and southern parts of the island convenient. ##### Tami W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer B., Greer, SC Jun 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Great location We enjoyed our stay. The location & proximity to the beach cannot be beat. It was clean & somewhat updated. There was new flooring throughout. The only negatives were that we didn’t have a parking pass & the office closes before check in. We were concerned that we would get towed. We were able to get one the next day. Also, the place needs more updating especially the dishwasher as I’m afraid it did not get dishes very clean. ##### Jennifer B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Wanda C. Jun 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Golden Strand J2 The unit was clean and well appointed. A little TLC needs to happen to the portable A/C unit in the MB as cardboard and painters tape do not seal against gale force winds during the spring. Temps dropped and the unit was cold. Heat worked. I asked for the pool codes from the property manager and am still waiting. Our very kind neighbor gave us entry into the pool area. Overall, enjoyed our stay and will stay again. ##### Wanda C. Stayed 7 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### julio c. May 23, 2025 ##### julio c.
