We love staying at Marlin Quay! The location and views are incredible. The condo is very spacious and clean. This is our 3rd year staying in 508. It is a little dated but everything is in good working condition and the beds are comfy.

Very nice condo. Pool was great to have during COVID time. The shallow part was great for our toddler. Would like to see the walkway extended out farther to the beach as the others were around us. That sand is hot! Lol. Stock great with amenities Plenty of parking.

Garden City Realty is the ONLY company to find your rental! We have rented from them about 12 or 13 times now. Every single person I've ever spoken to there is so sweet, helpful and makes you feel as if they truly want you to enjoy your stay. The house was completely spotless and well maintained. Could use new mattresses and new living room furniture. None of the chairs in the living room were usable because the springs were so worn out. The mattresses weren't very comfortable for the same reason. However the house itself was nice. Well stocked as far as kitchen appliances, utensils and dinner and glassware. Nice location. LOVED the covered back porch and the synthetic wood walkway (no spinters). We will definitely return and use Garden City Realty. I do wish I had know there was public beach access right beside the house with public parking. It made for a lot of people coming and going right beside the house all day. But not a huge problem. I just probably wouldn't have chosen that particular house had I known there was public parking right next door. At times it felt like we were in the movie Summer Rental. Lol

Love Surfmaster. We’ve stayed here for over 10 years and never had an issue. Love the area and Garden City beach. Nice family atmosphere without the chaos at other local beaches. Unit 511 is our preferred condo. Beautifully decorated, clean, beautiful views of the ocean. Just updated the flooring.

The rental was a good size and met all of our needs. Second bedroom is small but our teen girls slept comfortably. Glad we had a fan/sound machine because master bedroom you hear noise from the hall and trash dispenser area. We liked that we didn’t need to take the elevator and were so close to the beach. Being located above the snack area we would sometimes get cigarette smoke driving into the room but it didn’t last. We loved being low enough that we were able to sit on the couch and see the ocean. Everything we needed to make for a fun relaxing vacation.

Perfect location, close to everything, but far enough away from the congestion of Myrtle Beach.

Very quaint place with tons of beds! Plenty of space and right across the street with good enough view to give you the ocean front feel.

All aspects of Garden City Realty as a rental company was a great experience: friendly representatives, excellent communication, complete guidance for a trouble free vacation rental.

The unit, however, was disappointing in that there was virtually nothing provided for the guests. It was clean...but there was nothing to use to wipe down anything or clean in any way. There were four tissues in an almost empty box, two half rolls of toilet paper, and almost no paper towels on a roll. No beach items at all. No ice or water dispenser on the fridge. One trash bag other than the trash bag in the container. Guests will need to go shopping immediately upon arrival. This may be the standard situation for most rentals, but my previous experiences at SurfMaster were very different.

I have stayed at other rentals in this building (using other rentals methods) that provided much more in the way of basic items. I am not sure if this has to do with the actual owner of the property, but someone should provide just a little more to guests in the way of basic supplies and beach items.

The beds were not the most comfortable, but there were plenty of linens, towels and washcloths available. The coffee maker was fine.

In the future, I would likely choose a different unit if others were available...for comparison purposes, if nothing else.
