Overall, it was a wonderful experience. However, I was expecting something a little more special from a Penthouse. The condo was no different from other condos in the same building. We did enjoy our view of the marshland from this particular unit. I was disappointed by the dust bunnies and lint left beside the bed. We had to go to the store immediately upon our arrival as there was not any toilet paper in the 3 bathrooms. Also missing was soap, shampoo, conditioner and lotion. In the kitchen, there was not any dish detergent. The bed in the first bedroom was very stiff and made loud noises with every move. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will return to Royal Gardens. However, I would not spend the extra money on a Penthouse.

We enjoyed our stay at Unit 103.
Nice location of the ocean and pool.

We truly loved the house and the proximity to the beach and pool. We will definitely be staying here again. The only negative would be not having the hot water in the kitchen sink.

Reasonable price. Condo is outdated and needs ceiling fans in rooms.

Property was as advertised. It was clean and all amenities were good. GREAT location.

The house was wonderful, especially if you appreciate the charm of an original 60's beach house. The decks on the front and beach side are very comfortable. The home has everything you could possibly need during your stay. We especially enjoyed the history of the home through the many paintings and pictures displayed. Overall, a great stay that already
has us planning our return.

Overall, it was a good experience. The location and view were fabulous. However, the condo could definitely use an update. The dishwasher wasn't attached to the wall and would tip out. The stove
was ok (has coil burners) The refrigerator with icemaker was fine with the exception that the produce drawers were permanently off track. Dryer installation was a little scary, but it worked well as did the washer. I was grateful they were there. The dining area could use a brighter light. All bedroom furniture had a bubbly, scarred surface, but there was lots of storage. The master bed is too high for short people and sags in the middle. There was ample, comfortable seating for 6 in the living room. Sofa bed was actually comfortable to sit on. One of the biggest disappointments was the 24" tv screen in the LR and only one bedroom out of 3 had a tv at all. Bathrooms were fine but maybe install some grab bars for older people. Elevators were fast and there were plenty of carts to bring luggage and groceries up. Grills for guests to use were gas fueled and relatively new. In spite of what I have described we had a wonderful time and would recommend this condo. Just know what to expect.

This is our second year in a row in this particular condo-we love the place! However it does seem that a couple of areas could use some TLC. This year there was no screen door on the living rm sliding door which was sad because there were some great low humidity evenings that would've been great for enjoying the beach breeze. The handle to the bdrm sliding door was corroded from the salt air and disintegrated the first time we opened the door. Our main concern was that on our last day, there was no A/C the entire day due to an issue with a cooling tower (came back on at 5:00 as promised)...during this time we also had no water for several hours. It's totally understandable that repairs have to be made at some point, but what's alarming is that last year, same week, same condo, we also lost A/C for the entire last day we were there. Just makes us a little concerned. With that being said, Surfmaster is fantastic! The folks at Garden City Realty are great, the view is unbeatable, great location....we'll definitely be back, just hope that there are some repairs done this year to especially make the A/C a bit more reliable. Myrtle Beach is no place to be without A/C.

Everything was run very smoothly and easy! We took our daughter to the beach for the first time and stayed here; and the owners made it very easy to make sure we had everything we needed. Everything was clean and I'm working condition. This made our first real family vacation memorable!

We really enjoyed staying at Cloud 9. This beach house is in a great location. The beach views from the back deck are excellent. The back deck is only about 15 yards from the beach. Lots of parking available under the house. At the time we stayed this house had upgraded cable and internet service. Excellent fast internet service that was able to handle all our devices (streaming video, etc.) with no issues. The only negative is this place does NOT have a dishwasher. This might be a problem for people that like to cook all week.

The rental experience was smooth and easy from start to finish. The unit was just what we were hoping for...clean, great views, everything worked like it should, and ocean breezes day & night. We liked it so much, we are considering buying a unit. The only thing that I would suggest is that the balcony railing be replaced. A few of the balusters are loose from age and weathering. The railing is safe. This only a concern if you have small children or animals that may push on the balusters. According to the HOA President this repair is already planned. We would stay here again and/or recommend it to friends/family.
