Coastal Retreat, Close to the Beach

This was the third rental that we stayed in on this trip. This one was a disappointment compared to the other two, with the price being the same. There is no private outdoor space, and there was a chemical odor (like flea shampoo) that made us decide to leave after one night. I sent several messages but the replies were generic AI responses, which shows me that no one was actually reading my messages. I don’t recommend this if you want to experience the ‘beach life’.

Could use a few more dishes and maybe a bit more privacy from the neighbors when you are in the hot tub, but other than that it was great.

Very convenient location. Host was very responsive

We enjoyed our stay here! A cold front came through and the hot tub was a plus! It was the perfect size for our family of 4! Very close to restaurants and a short drive to the beach!

The place was okay. Would have liked a bigger outdoor area, also would have liked better lighting and more comfortable furniture in the living room.

Very nice house, close to the beach! Kitchen was well stocked to cook in. Beds were very comfortable.

Host is great and communications are great. Only concern was 2 white pills found under master bed that I dogs could have gotten if we didn’t see them.

Coastal Retreat was a well-maintained, well-located beach house. The home was super clean, and beautiful decor. Nathen was our host and he was very helpful and pleasant and made our check in and check out very simple and easy. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. Beach was very close. Thank you Nathen for making our stay wonderful and enjoyable. We will definitely be back.

Everything was perfect hopefully come back in the summer

Everything was great. Is was in a great location, close to the beach, and the house was the perfect size for what we needed.

Great place to stay for a visit to Pawley's Island!

The place was very nice & spacious, but we didn't know it was a duplex. We were very concerned about keeping our dogs quiet so as not to disturb anyone. We don't know if anyone was on the other side & it wasn't a problem, we just didn't know about it until we got there. There is no yard to speak of. We also would have appreciated more communication with the owner, NOT the property manager (he was great & pretty prompt with responses, but didn't have the autonomy to make financial-related decisions), since there was a state of emergency due to a coastal storm. We would have appreciated options, but it was a weekend and the storm did turn and go out to sea after we arrived. We ended up with 2 rainy days, which wasn't too bad. It was just frustrating to not know what to do before the storm turned out to sea and risk losing all of our money. It was a 12-hour drive. We would have been happy to choose a different available 5 night stay. It wasn't just rainy weather at the time, is was a state of emergency declared by the governor. And I never did find the actual fine print of the cancellation policy. The whole transaction processes differently because of the software program the owners use. It's just different than other VRBO's we have used. In the end, it all worked out ok.

Property is exactly as pictured and described. Very basic - but also very clean. Comfortable beds, easy parking. Great /fast communication for questions. Easy drive to beach (roads not very conducive to walking). Would recommend a spigot and faucet outside for washing feet and sandy paws, but otherwise exactly what we expected and good value.

Wonderful. Close to everything!! Enjoyed the stay.

Our shar-pei made herself right at home. This was her second trip staying here. Your house is very well maintained. During our stay we had three services provided. The house was power washed, the hot tub serviced and repairs were made in the bathroom. The neighbors party a lot at night. Overall we did enjoy our visit!

The house was nice, location not far from the beach

Beautiful property close to the beach! Perfect get away! Clean and well maintained!

Clean and comfortable and close to everything we needed!

This is exactly what we were looking for! It's located in a great spot on the South causeway- just a quick bike ride or drive to the beach. It's peaceful and quiet- lots of shade and nice parking.The space is so nicely decorated and comfortable- it's just a really easy place to stay in. We only used the main bedroom with the king size- amazingly comfortable. We didn't use the hot tub but it looked clean and well-maintained. The neighbors are close-by but you don't feel that when inside the house. The owner does a nice job of communicating and making it easy with the check-out process. We plan to stay here again! Very thankful to find this place!

Amazing host and amazing location

Great location. Close to stores, gas, restaurants, and beach. Very nice home for the price. Definitely would recommend it for a family as the kids had their own room and my wife who likes to turn in early could do so without being bothered. Host was very responsive and communicated with us, even recommending a great place for dinner.

Very nice

Surprised by all of the positive ratings. Here are the issues we experienced: 1. A door broken/hanging off hinges.2. Unable to use hot tub due to cleanliness 3. One toilet out of order for stay4. Beach chairs missing 5. Mildew smell that we could not solve 6. Needed to deal with a plumber to assess toilet as were checking out.7.Sharp edges at border of master bedroom and hallway (could not walk barefoot).8. Construction crew in the house next door with very early starts and loud talkers. 9. Towels were bleach stained and thin. For a property with generally positive reviews, we were unfortunately disappointed in our stay.

Stayed at a lot of places at Pawleys over the years. First time I never saw a palmetto bug. AC unit was awesome.

Convenient location. Close to beach and restaurants/ stores. Very cozy, but plenty of room. Everything you need for a beachcation!

We enjoyed our recent stay. The house was very nice. Very clean and the king sized bed was very comfortable. Everything we needed was in place with plenty of towels. Kitchen was very well stocked and the house was spacious and comfortable. The proximity to the beach was farther than we expected and the houses are very close in proximity but the neighbors were quite so no issues. Very conveniently located and close to grocery stores and restaurants.

Our visit to Pawleys Island and Georgetown was restful, it is a quaint quiet area, just what we were hooing for. The location of this property is perfect, just a short distance from the beach and grocery store. We would stay again.

Clean house with easy access to golf and beach.

Great place for our family’s spring break trip. Plenty of room for our family of 5 and dogs. Everything was as described in the listing. Easy access to the beach and close to state parks and many SC costal attractions.Would stay again!

When we travel we don’t usually spend much time in the rental, so the most important thing is the comfort of the beds and safety. Both of those things were met just fine. The master bed was very comfy! We did BBQ one night, and a few additional kitchen items would’ve come in handy (bbq grill brush, platters, etc) but we made due. My biggiest complaints are that the master bedroom door lock didn’t work and The towels in the linen closet were damp upon arrival. Other than that, the host is very easy to communicate with and there was enough space for my family! Thank you!

We stayed for 3 nights. Overall the unit is very nice and clean. We loved that we could bring our dog. There were a few minor things that we let Nathan know about and hopefully he has addressed them. If you plan to cook, bring your spices and a few good knives (and a peeler). The outdoor jacuzzi is not private as all the neighbors are in very close proximity. The pictures don’t show it. We didn’t use it so, not a huge deal for us. There is a Lowe’s grocery store and a Food Lion close by. The beach is maybe a mile or two (max) away. We went to the Rustic Table one night for dinner. I highly recommend it. Food, cocktails and service were outstanding!Overall the inside pictures were a true representation. The king bed was comfortable. Our 1st time at Pawleys and we thought it was great.

This house is in a neighborhood about 1.5 miles from miles long beach where you can walk dogs. Really beautiful, There is also a lovely neighborhood very close for shorter walks with dogs and morning runs. The other nice thing is the house is within easy walking to grocery and a few restaurants.

The location was quite easy to locate. More space than I needed as my 1 did not join me. Access to town and beaches was super easy. I don’t use keurig coffee maker disposables so I purchased a reusable insert to limit the waste. I also had a challenge with the wine glasses being too big for my grasp. The garbage was not collected on schedule. Generally very satisfied with this rental.

A quick trip to relax & unwind is always good! We enjoyed our stay at Coastal Retreat and found the location very convenient to just about any activity in the Pawleys Island area. We bicylced, hiked, enjoyed nice restaurants and the beach. The house was perfect for us with its WiFi availability and large screen TV. Thank you for a nice experience!

Vrbo was extremely clean and we loved the location. Very roomy space and the hot tub is great. Will 100% stay again.

We stayed here for the weekend while we were in town for our wedding at Pawleys Plantation. It was an easy location, close to a grocery store, and was just what we needed for a quick overnight stay.

My husband and spent the first week of November in Pawleys Island. The weather was beautiful. The house was conveniently located on south casueway, short drive or bike ride to the beach. We will be back againg soon.

We enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend. The property was clean and well kept, and close to local conveniences and restaurants. The property manager was incredibly responsive, which was greatly appreciated as we were traveling the weekend of Hurricane Milton.

Clean and close to everything in town

A great place to stay, quiet neighborhood and convenient to everything.

We enjoyed our time very much

Me and a few of my friends rented out this property for our vacation this year. The location was great for what we needed access to as far as fishing and enjoying the beach. The host provided us with all the information we needed and we had no issues. If we return to the area this will definitely be our first option!
