Overall we had a nice stay and the condo was updated and clean, however there were some things that I think could be improved upon to make this a five-star place to stay.
1. Two of the three balcony doors didn’t lock. When we called, maintenance promptly brought up wooden 2 by 4’s for the tracks on the insides of the doors, however we weren’t concerned with people getting in as much as my 4 year old getting out onto the 11th floor balcony.
2. I fully expected to purchase much of what we needed, however 4 rolls of toilet paper (one per bathroom) in the entire condo wasn’t an appropriate amount. Also, the pepper shaker was missing. There were no cleaning products to wipe down counters nor hand soap in any of the bathrooms. There was dishwasher detergent.
3. The dryer was a fire hazard. My husband noticed nothing was drying so he pulled it out and the hose was squished flat and kinked. That should probably be looked at.
4. When we checked in, the balcony wasn’t vacuumed and there was sand everywhere. There were only two non matching chairs on the balcony and one was unraveling.
5. A few mornings we work up to roaches (palmetto bugs?) in the kitchen/dishwasher. We stored all food in the fridge to be safe and never left dishes in the sink.
6. All descriptions online say master bedroom “king bed”. It was a full or queen and it was so high up we had to jump to get in.
7. The hallway windows in the two back bedrooms and kitchen are totally see through with the current shades in place.
8. One night both elevators went out. The fire department was there. The one elevator was out of commission for a day afterwards for repairs.
9. Nothing you can do about this, but the parking garage was extremely tight and not enough handicapped spaces during our stay. Not a huge deal, but notable
Positives: there were many! The view of the ocean is GORGEOUS. Convenient location without being part of the insanely busy parts of myrtle. Some kid items in the closet (sand toys, chairs, umbrella). Chair service at the beach was worth every penny. The maintenance workers were very helpful and responsive. Trash chute made things easy. The choice of pools was great and the walk to the beach was quick and painless even with someone in a wheelchair. Walk-in shower was handicapped accesible. Laundry in the condo was a huge plus.
