    My family with small children were with us . The kids love the pool, beach and the closed in back yard. We wish the grill was gas instead of charcoal. We have stayed here two years in a row and love the improvements and the vesco board on the wall in the kitchen. The hot tub also a hit with my family that the pool and hot tub salt water and not chemicals. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our vacation was just perfect. Palmettos and Sunshine was exactly what we expected from the description on the site. The home was very clean and well stocked with necessities. This is a super comfortable home and was perfect for our family of 11 with small children. The pool area was fun and the grass area was very large and great for outdoor games. The management company was great to work with!

    We absolutely loved our stay at Palmettos and Sunshine! Everything was truly perfect from start to finish. The property itself is beautiful and so well cared for, and the staff went above and beyond—always attentive, quick to answer our calls, and genuinely helpful with any questions we had.The highlight of our trip was nothing short of magical: a turtle nest hatched right outside our front door! We even had the once-in-a-lifetime experience of helping rescue a baby turtle that was struggling to make its way out. It’s something we’ll never forget, and it made our stay even more special.Between the wonderful accommodations, the attentive service, and that unforgettable experience, we couldn’t have asked for anything better. We would 100% return to this property again and recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone visiting Myrtle Beach!

    This was our 2nd stay at this property and we once again had a wonderful family vacation here! The owner and property management were very accommodating and helpful with everything from start to finish. I am beyond thrilled to have found this beautiful property that we have been able to bring our aging pups to with us!! It is so hard to find a lovely home that checks all the boxes for us (on the beach, private pool, fenced in yard with some grass for the pups to play, and is well taken care of!), and this one checks them all! The communication from property management was excellent, the property was clean, and even had several upgrades since we stayed last year, so it’s clear that the owner takes pride in the property and is willing to listen to any feedback or suggestions we had previously. Property management checked in with us via phone call at the start of our trip and then sent a PM to check on us as a follow up to the one issue we had with the beach setup to make sure we were happy, which was very much appreciated. We also booked 2 private chefs and a fishing trip while we were there, all of which were recommended by property management and all of them were amazing!! It was another fabulous beach trip with our family this year and we hope to be able to stay here again next year!! Highly recommended!!

    We stayed Mother’s Day week. 2nd stay in this beach house. Our main group was 7 adults with some friends dropping in for overnights during the week. We also had our dogs. This is a great house. Very clean, functional and well stocked with everything we needed. We noticed renovations and upgrades since our last stay, they were all well done and added to the experience. We will rent this beach house again. Owners and rental agency were very responsive. Usually within minutes. Thanks for making your home available.

    The house was great! Lots of room and privacy when needed. Had issue with one door not locking, ice maker in cabinet did not make ice and the filter in fridge needed changed so no filtered water! All in all a great vacation for our family! We loved the location, the pool and the kitchen was very well equipped! Elevator was a nice touch to, especially loading and unloading car!

    Annual family vacation.. first time in Garden City!! Loved the locations d the outside features fit our family incredibly well!!! The inside has a great layout, but as I said when I first entered .. just a great atmosphere.. but needs a little love and care.. lots of fabrics and rugs.. very worn.. photos were not a good representation of what we found.. but we had a great time and would return if we could book a week prior to this year in July.. Thanks for the memories!!
