BED BUGS!! Our trip had to end early due to bed bugs in one of the rooms. Pictures listed on site are not updated! Most of the furniture inside is broken and the chairs on the balcony are rusted. There was mold in the one of the bathrooms. TVs and internet worked poorly. Only positive from the trip was communication with the property owners.

Overall nice 4 bedroom condo. Nice property. Pool, lazy river, Hot tub, gym.
We are used to staying in larger condos / houses, so we typically have 2 refrigerators and 2 deyers so we needed to improvise..
Also the ice maker was behind so we had to buy bags of ice. had to

We love North Myrtle Beach. We've been making this trip for almost 20 years from Kansas and we've also stayed in multiple locations. I loved the fact that the condo was on the beach with easy access. And while previous reviews of the condo were correct, we still enjoyed our stay. This was also the first condo that we'd stayed in that the door code locked automatically every time the door was shut and we had to use the code every time to get in. That was nice since we tend to forget to lock the doors when we'd go down to the beach or pool areas. The only thing that didn't work in the condo was the ice maker and an easy fix is to buy ice so that's what we did. No, we didn't complain about anything because I'm not at the beach to complain, I'm there to enjoy the beach and not be in Kansas. I will say we ran out of hot water on Thursday and we left on Saturday. Again i did not call to complain about this because the ocean water was the same temperature. It might have made a difference if it had been that way the day we arrived.

Great location condo was OK.
Advertised to sleep 12 but only had 5 plates in the kitchen. Not a very stocked kitchen overall. Couple chairs were broken on the balcony. There were only 5 of us so it worked out ok but not good for a larger group. The outdoor pool was completely closed so it would have been nice to know beforehand. Texted the number given and all we were told was that they didn’t know either. We love Myrtle Beach so we’ll definitely be back to the area.

Our trip
The check in process was wonderful and very convenient. The parking situation was not good. Arriving and not knowing where to park or how to unload. Being tired from driving made it little frustrating. We figured it out and it was fine afterwards. There was some construction at the condo during the stay. Construction crews started VERY. This was on the outside of the building. Little disappointed in the kitchen supplies as in cookware. Overall it was a nice condo. Easy to get in and out of along with being convenient to stores and restaurants. The condo was spacious enough for our group. We would return for a future stay.

Needs Improvements
We had a good time at N Myrtle Beach, I would not say it was a 5 star. Many small issues, none that we allowed to ruin our stay but should be looked at. This reduced my star experience down to 2. The first star is for the view and location. 2nd is for cleanliness, with the exception of the floor, socks were black in 1 day. Linens were plentiful except dish cloth/towel 1 is not enough. Bed linens were clean. However, the bedspread seemed to need refreshing. Balcony Master Bathroom, the toilet handle gets stuck in a flush position, causing a toilet to continuously fill unless you remember to pull the handle back up. Wood trim areas are in need of attention and a bit of mold in the shower. 2nd Master Bathroom, shower diverter hard to pull, towel rack falls off. The kitchen refrigerator door does not seal properly, the ice maker does not work, and water drips from somewhere in the fridge. Stove drawer is absolutely nasty, like it has never been cleaned. Cookware needs replacing. Internet loses connection with TV and is quite difficult to reconnect.
Balcony bistro chairs are badly rusted, afraid to use them for fear of getting rust on clothes. The dryer is rusted even the lint trap. Air system vents need cleaning and black dust on ceiling from vents. living room furniture desperately needs cleaning. The sliding door latch in the living room fell off, had to find screws to fix in order to lock it. I communicated all this to the property manager in a review to date no response.

C minus minus overall
Walked into a unpleasant smelly unit, floors unclean, stained upholstery and no TV service. Could only text mgt and settled on requesting next day TV service which never came. Floor trim around shower and baths rotted and poised hazards. I'm not one to complain but hopefully my comments will help future guests have a more pleasant stay.

Place looked like a construction site
Have pictures of black molded bathrooms and sparkling patches on walls we didn’t even use two bedrooms but still found the value for the room versus the construction projects not satisfactory. You should also know the refrigerator door is coming apart and insides are cracked about two foot long I have pictures. It was not a good value and I would not subject my family to this in future nor tell my friends. Walls in living room have settle cracks across the entire ceiling and it looks like someone patched a whole sheet of sheet rock in the ceiling but did a bad job as you can see the seems. Again would not recommend this to anyone I have pictures of the construction site that I leased for a short vacation get away at Vrbo not good

First condo we were in was NOT clean at all. This unit needs upgrades!!! 703N had bed bugs and we were moved to a different unit. 1st day repack to move was very inconvenient. Also the Barnicle company harassed us all week about parking. This was a very stressful vacation . We WILL NEVER BE BACK!

Good experience
We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was a great size for our group and in a good location, with the beaches just being a little crowded but not overwhelming. The pool and lazy river were great and it’s very easy access to get to the beach. We enjoyed being right near parasailing/banana boats and the Italian ice cart coming by on the beach.
There were a few hiccups but wouldn’t necessarily keep us from staying again. We had no parking passes and called the rental company but never heard back. We ended up hunting down security to get them. We were also never informed by the management company that we needed wristbands at the pool. Once we were told by condo staff and did find our wrist bands, they were paper and only had 2 for our group of 10 staying a week. The complex was also a bit loud, with guests in the corridor late and fireworks being set off just about every night, so that was a little challenging since we had young kids with us. So there were a few issues but still really enjoyed our time here!

This is very nice unit, very roomy, a/c didn’t work properly nor did frig and the lazy river was in bad disrepair. However the unit where nice and very spacious was not cleaned properly. Old bits of food in drawer below oven and kitchen was not cleaned well at all. Very dirty to be honest. But rest of unit clean and overall nice.

Adult family vacation was a huge success.
Upon arrival the man overseeing the parking and unloading was amazing! Very helpful even with the amount of traffic and people he was keeping organized. Elevators were extremely busy but if you had patience it eventually was your turn. Condo was spacious and comfortable. Kitchen was minimally supplied but we eat out most of the time anyway so it did not concern us. Pool and lazy river were busy to say the least. More chairs would be helpful. Rules for lazy river needs to be made larger as most people did not see or read them. Condo location was great, did not have to drive far for restaurants or activities. We are all looking forward to next year’s vacation.

I wouldn’t recommend this place which is unfortunate because we were really looking forward to it.
Maintenance was there every single day, up to 3x a day. There was a smell inside the closet that smelled like urine- maintenance came in and threw out all the bedding that was there and sprinkled a substance to mask the smell.
A huge puddle of water appeared in front of the bathroom & we called maintenance again & he wasn’t sure where it came from so he had to call multiple people. With that said, strange men kept appearing & knocking on the door to figure out where the leak was coming from. On day 2 maintenance brought 2 humidifiers and 1 large fan that were left and powered on in the master bedroom. In addition another industrial humidifier was brought in the master bathroom which made the temperature over 80 degrees which was so uncomfortable. Not to miss the lingering awful smell in the master bedroom where maintenance had to come and place some air freshener strips in the A/C vent so it could mask the smell.
During the week another random man had to inspect my bathroom while I was not fully dressed which was very uncomfortable. He inspected the laundry area and the master room again because now the apartment next door was having a major leak.
The cabinet in the kitchen was missing center studs so the pots and pans were all over each other.
And the bathroom that is not connected to any rooms kept having power outages which we had to locate the GFI and reset it.
The smoke detector in the master bedroom kept going off as low battery and when maintenance replaced it, they put another old battery in which started going off soon after they left.
It really wasn’t much of a relaxing vacation. We even canceled family plans because we wanted to make sure someone was always there while the random strangers and maintenance were constantly going in and out. Also during departure- the right elevator was broken and it took over 15 min to get the left elevator door to open, & when it did- it was full to the max. This went on for 45 min until we decided it would be faster to walk downstairs. We ended up walking down 7 flights of stairs with all of our luggage and many other people did the same.
The location is great but unfortunately due to the rest of the experience we won’t be returning. We tried to get in touch with the affordable large properties company but they kept giving us the run around. I wouldn’t recommend this place. It’s unfortunate because we were really looking forward to it as it was our first family vacation.
