Expectations exceeded

Garden City Realty exceeded our expectations. Our agent, Norm Clay, worked patiently with us until we found the property that was just right for us. We wouldn't choose anyone else for our future needs.

We had a very good week in the Metzler home. Had a chance to meet Bob and his wife. We enjoyed our stay and the only thing that could have made it any better was one more bedroom. overall, we had an awesome trip.

Thanks

We stayed at One Ocean Place #602. Ocean front...you can't get a better view- it was amazing. The condo itself was beautiful. It's obvious that the owner takes great pride. May be time to get a new comforter for the master bedroom, it was quite worn but other than that, no complaints! The building itself was in really great shape, plenty of parking and just an all around great place to stay!

This was our 7th year to rent from Garden City Realty and to stay at the Compass Rose. Unit 32 is very nice with comfortable beds, updated kitchen and good washer/dryer. The location couldn't be better. This section of beach rivals any other beaches I've been to in the U.S.

This unit has been a dream to stay in. It’s totally renovated and so tastefully decorated. Everything is brand new and just so comfortable and welcoming. Being on an angle allowed for some of the best views of the ocean; couldn’t get any better. The only thing that was a little unsettling was the Oceanside deck. It’s slanted and made us feel uneasy being out there. We noticed other units had the same situation, but none the less that was the only thing that was negative about the unit. The person responsible for the decorating, has impeccable taste; just beautiful. Final note: 5 stars goes to housekeeping.

Everything was great with the condo and I would rent that same one again. I Was very disappointed with the weather. Other than that 1009 is perfect!

We could not have slected a better facility for our vacation stay. The amenities were great. The view was spectacular, the unit was very spacious, and had almost all the comforts of home. The only thing that I would change would be an update of the televisions. We were there during the football season, and as fans of the sport, larger, more updated TVs would have been great.
We would certainly love to spend another vacation in this unit, and strongly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a beautiful rental in Myrtle Beach.

The condo had all of the necessities with a stunning view. The complex is conveniently located with many shops, grocery stores, and attractions close by. Will be renting again.

We started going oceanfront in 2021. This is our 4th oceanfront stay. 2 in Garden City and 3 in NMB (twice last year). Each time we stayed somewhere it seemed to be better than the last. But Surfmaster 709 blew them all away! We won’t even look anywhere else going forward. One big problem with High Rise towers is the elevators. Surfmaster had a half day of problems the whole week. And I believe it can be attributed to the yearly inspection. I noticed their yearly inspection certificate was for the same dates as our stay. So let’s say 10 for location. 9 for building amenities, 9 for parking and the room gets an 11 because, besides having everything we needed or wanted the balcony was huge and it had a King size bed. Basically, we got the WHOLE PACKAGE with Surfmaster 709. Not the cheapest or most expensive but without a doubt the best value we’ve had in 4 years. And while not technically related to the hotel, the chair and umbrella guy was also the best we’ve experienced. With over 80 setups a day, he was out there early and everything in place before 9am. He was constantly visible and would check in with you multiple times a day. We are customers for life! P.S. easiest check in/out we’ve ever experienced. Modern, virtual, no key experience. Who doesn’t hate keeping track of a key while on the beach and using the key multiple times daily.

Since we didn’t come last year due to Covid, we were excited to come back. There are couple of things that stood out. In the pictures it showed a grilled and we were excited to be downstairs and use the grill but it wasn’t useable. The staircase, parts of the fencing was coming off and we had to make sure the kids didn’t lean on it so they don’t fall down. During times between 3-6pm the temperature was very warm inside the house. We had the A/C on 65 and it was still warm, luckily I brought our fan from home so that helped a little bit. Even using the wall fan in the house it still made it warm. The carpet has a lot of stains. Other than that, If you are in the back patio it’s nice to relax and watch the sunset. After a day in the beach, there was a shower downstairs which was nice to have before coming inside the house. Since we didn’t go out to eat, we did go to the local Walmart and bought food, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook. We had a good time with our family.

The condo was nice, but the love seat and couch were very uncomfortable. The fabric was dirty looking, it was covered in fabric knots, and the couch was VERY worn out. You sank so far down into the couch. We had to put blankets under the cushions because the metal cut into your legs. Jackie and Maggie were so helpful and sweet to help us with a few issues in the condo. Wonderful view

Great view! The condo was somewhat upgraded (new flooring/paint) and the bed was relatively comfortable (this is ALWAYS my big concern)!! Only concern was the bathtub having a crack in the bottom (covered up by a rubber mat). I would definitely consider staying at this one again!

Amazing rental property for a golf weekend. More than enough room. All rooms and bathrooms were spacious and clean. Views from the decks were amazing.
