Surf Master 1209

This condo is comfortable for 2. Very nicely decorated and awesome views. Issues with the dishwasher from a previous review were taken care of. Surfmaster has been a well maintained place to stay. Garden City Realty has always been helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay at Surf Master. This is our second year as snowbirds. I will mention the dishwasher needs to be service/replaced; it did not always clean the dishes thoroughly and never got hot enough to dry them. Also, the door on the 1/2 bath does not stay closed; the striker plate needs to be adjusted or replaced.

Wonderful!!! We love the SurfMaster! This was our 1st time in this condo and on the 12th floor. The balcony and views were amazing. The unit is clean and beautifully decorated. We definitely want to stay in 1209 again.

We have stayed in this beautiful condo a few times and each time the owners have made some nice upgrades ! Great view from the 12th Floor Oceanfront balcony. My first choice when we return will be Unit 1209 at SurfMaster will be Unit #1209. We also book through Garden City Real Estate and on the rare occasion when there’s an issue with any Unit... it’s an immediate response !

Always a great place, 4th year returning and I love that the owners included the chairs reserved in the price for June July and August as that put them a step ahead of all the others.

Enjoyed The Stay!

Unfortunately, same week as tropical storm Debby! Loved where I stayed though!

This 12th floor rental unit was nice, but could use some updating. The view was great, and the elevators responded quickly and we were often the only ones riding on it. The kitchen was well equipped, and there was plenty of storage and blankets and pillows available. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, but the pull out couch was not.

This is a very nice condo overlooking the ocean. The place is always clean, the Rental Company very accommodating, and we have enjoyed this location for the last four years. Just a couple of things, we as renters feel they require upgrading - the master bed mattress and the living room sofa, both are showing their age, wear and tear.

This is probably the most comfortable 1 bedroom Surf Master Condo that we have stayed in and we have been coming to SM for years. The bed and living room furniture was comfortable. The kitchen was very well stocked. I could actually use the cookware. The view from the balcony was so beautiful. The 12th floor was quiet even though it was the end of bike week and the beginning of another bike week. Overall I have nothing bad to say about it other than some instructions to operate the living room tv would be very helpful. We hope to return again to this same unit.

We had a wonderful time at Surf Master 1209. This is our 2nd time staying in this unit and we will definitely be back again! From renting the unit to check in, the process was seamless. We had an issue with our deadbolt upon arrival and were being locked out. Dave, Stacey and Brad from maintenance went above and beyond to make sure we were able to get into the unit with no issues. The staff at Garden City Realty really care about their guests and show true professionalism. The unit itself was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for a comfortable week, and the views from the balcony are absolutely breathtaking!

Booking and checking in with Garden City Realty was flawless, and they answered any questions we needed promptly. The condo was clean and comfortable and of course the view is amazing. We suggest that the mattress is close to being replaced and the kitchen pots and pans need to be replaced. Other than that, we very much enjoyed our stay in 1209, and would return.

Surf Master is a great place to stay. Our condo is very nice. Garden City is great to work with.

- Darci O. from Albion, Posted: 02/02/2024

Nice quiet location. Unit was clean and had everything we needed to have a pleasant stay. Especially appreciated the washer and dryer.

- Lynne W. from Greencastle, Posted: 11/02/2023

Great trip! Bed was very comfortable. The unit adequately apponted. The only complaint was when we arrived the living room had been smoked in by prior renters and was very noticable.

- Marjorie F. from Lynchburg, Posted: 09/12/2023

We’ve stayed in this condo previously as well as numerous other times at SurfMaster. We’ve been very pleased every time. Our go to spot always.

In reference to the four stars in the property's condition, we have a couple of suggestions. 1) The exhaust fan in the main bathroom needs to work, all it does right now is noise and does not exhaust. 2) the screen sliding door at the balcony needs a pair of wheels which will make it easier to use as we enjoy the fresh air but not the bugs. Other than that, we have had a great two weeks and we will be back next year. Thank you!

- Antonio D. from Bradenton, Posted: 06/19/2023

This unit was the perfect size for the 2 of us.

We had a excellent time the condo could not have been better. The owners have taken some extra TLC on updating the condo. Very nice condo and we are coming back soon.

- Ray H. from Lincolnton, Posted: 01/02/2023

An excellent one bedroom condo with a fantastic view. Well equipped and spacious. Wouldn't hesitate to rent again. Hopefully next time for 4 weeks instead of 2.

- John (Jack) T. from Barrie, Posted: 10/27/2022

Very clean and accommodating want to rent next year as well ❤️❤️❤️

- James and Colleen H. from Lee Center, Posted: 10/17/2022

The condo was very clean. People were friendly. Close by to everything. The view was awesome.

- Nancy H. from Columbia, Posted: 10/11/2022

Very nice unit. Shower great!

- Nora E. from New Bern, Posted: 09/26/2022

As usual 1209 is so clean and comfortable. GCR employees are always friendly and helpful. I do wish that the property had more luggage carts. Maybe having alternate check in days would solve this problem.

- James E. from Mechanicsville, Posted: 09/26/2022

The property is wonderful. We loved it.
We loved it so much, we already have booked it for next year same time.
Can't wait for next year.

Very pretty and clean condo!

Nice condo overlooking the ocean. Great view of the Strand. We recommend this condo.

Robin has valuable in making our reservation since she has assisted with past reservation and knows our needs. The room was as indicated in the pictures

This unit and this location - fabulous. Unit 1209 felt just like home. The decor and comfort were perfect. Not to mention the view from the top floor. Our only visitors were birds flying by - some with large fish being carried away! The unit was well cared for and clean. It is just about a mile to the Garden City Pier which is well worth the walk - excellent food, coffee and views - with seating both covered and out in the sun. Many good restaurants close by, too. Visited Murrells Inlet which is a gem itself. Broadway at the Beach also about 15 minutes away. Felt like vacation and home at the same time. Surfside Pier is still under construction but nearby are parks and some weekly festival type events with vendors, etc. Also, quite a few good restaurants there, too. Would highly recommend this location and unit to anyone. Having 1.5 baths and option of sleep sofa in living room makes this a good choice for 1-4 people. There is a privacy door in hall between Master bedroom and bath area and half bath and living room, kitchen area. Should also mention fabulous view of ocean from the kitchen, dining and living room area with lots of light. Balcony was large and provided sunrise, sunset and breezes.

This unit has been recently updated, and was very spacious for my wife and I and our youngest son. We spent a lot of time relaxing in the living room and on the balcony. A very good deal for a small family.

Condo was clean kitchen and bathrooms were small.

Unit was as pictured. Very private and clean. Well decorated and all of the furniture was comfortable. Just one small hiccup with the door lock but that was fixed with one phone call.

- James E. from Mechanicsville, Posted: 07/20/2021

It was very nice. Everything we needed was there everything was clean.

Loved this unit. Top floor and very quiet! Only detail we didn't like was there were no restrooms on lower floor by pools. You either had to go back to your condo or use a port a potty!

My wife and I have stayed in several one bedroom condos at Surfmaster over the years and this is one of the best rented!

Condo was clean and comfortable. Perfect for a relaxing week.

Our week was great. The condo was very clean. Only issue was that the king sized bed was not very comfortable. Definitely would recommend The Conch Cafe which is within walking distance of this property.

- Denise F. from Marion, Posted: 05/24/2021

GREAT LOCATION, VERY CLEAN CONDO, GREAT COMMUNICATION WITH MANAGEMENT COMPANY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS CONDO TO ANYONE.

This is a welcome addition to the rental program. The vertical blinds at the patio door should be replaced with a curtain. Please add coasters in the den.
