About this property

+Serenity by the Sea+, Family Friendly, Best Views/ Location, Direct OF Corner!

POOL/JACUZZI OPEN! FAMILY/KID FRIENDLY 1200 sf unit has a spacious King BR & BA w large balcony; a Queen BR w beach views; a cozy 3rd BR sure to delight kids, grand-kids & young at heart w twin & bunk beds! Stunning panoramic views! Unwind with your toes in the sand & surf. Discover your own quaint shops, amazing eatery, or visit Myrtle Beach's many attractions, all within easy walking distance. This bright & airy unit holds up to 9 guests!

THE SPACE:

*FAMILY and BUSINESS FRIENDLY! Why rent 2-3 expensive hotel rooms when friends, family, & business associates can stay together, have a kitchen to fix a private meal or enjoy morning coffee with croissants on the balcony listening to the gentle waves? All this while saving vacation dollars! After a day of exploring all that Myrtle Beach has to offer, relax with board games, puzzles, gaming, a movie, or sitting in the comfortable balcony chairs enjoying conversation while viewing the moon's reflection on the Atlantic Ocean. Business travelers can hold or plan meetings or conduct business from their laptops. No driving to the beach as it is just an elevator ride and a few steps away. We are less than a mile from the Convention Center and 1 mile from the heart of Myrtle Beach!

*WHAT TO EXPECT: Upon entering Serenity by the Sea, you'll be delighted with stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean and sunlight pouring in through the floor to ceiling windows. From the 14th floor the unobstructed views of the ocean, beach, and down to Pier 14, the Boardwalk, and the Skywheel are unbeatable! Wake up each morning to the rhythmic sound of the surf and spectacular sunrises! Watch the dolphins play from either balcony! It's time to stroll the beach and collect shells, or perhaps walk to a favorite restaurant for breakfast. Do a lot or do nothing! It's your dream vacation!

Blackout drapes throughout for a good night sleep!

Perfect views!!!

The property was just about perfect. The sunrise and the moon at night were beautiful. Three bedrooms 2 full bathrooms were perfect for the 7 of us. Michele was easy to contact and was clear with all directions and rules of the facility. It's a 3 minute elevator ride and walk to the beach, which had a perfect location to set up for our beach day. Balcony views were perfect and could hear the ocean at night even with doors shut. Would recommend and would stay here again.

Perfect Beach Stay

We could not have been more pleased with this vacation home. The condo is exactly as described. The perfect beach condo that was centrally located. The cleanliness was impeccable. The ocean views were incredible! Our communications with the homeowner were fantastic. We would recommend this property to anyone who is looking for an ocean front property! Our 6-year-old grandson LOVED the bedroom designed for children. Thank you so much for our family vacation that will remain with us in memories for a long time.

Serenity by the Sea Comment

The condo was clean, well furnished, and comfortable. The view of the ocean was fantastic, and the beach was great. We also enjoyed the pool. My grandchildren met some other kids their ages, so they had a ball in the pool. One of the bar chairs had a bent bolt so it could not be used. My husband went to Home Depot, bought a new bolt and fixed the chair. The owners graciously talked us through how to access Netflix on the TV. They asked if the bathtub faucet was leaking, and we said no thinking it was in the master bedroom. Later we discovered that the faucet in the other bathroom does leak. I would recommend this property to friends as a lovely place to spend vacation.

Great Views

This was a great place to stay. Perfectly located in the center of everything Myrtle Beach. 5 minutes to Boardwalk in the Beach. 20 minutes to Barefoot Landing, 3 minutes to the Sky Wheel. You can see the sunrise from the balcony. I only gave 4 stars to accuracy of listing because the 3rd bedroom is smaller than it appears. Otherwise everything is exactly as described. Plenty of games and puzzles for downtime inside. Everything you need for the beach. We were 6, all 16 and above, and had plenty of room. Michele is very helpful and answers emails much faster than expected. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

The condo is what it is. Perfectly serviceable for a small family. It had everything we needed. A few drawbacks- everything felt damp all the time. Socks didn’t cut it - they would get wet. So bring slippers. Upholstery too. And be prepared- the small kids room is basically a closet - you have to close the door to access the full room. We didn't need the space so it was fine for just sleeping. I knew the condo was small, but be aware it's "can't open the dishwasher and the cabinet where the detergent is at the same time" small. It's a trick loading the dishwasher while leaning over the dishwasher door to reach the sink. The dryer only works ok of you use time dry and high heat. I have no complaints about the hosts - we had no problems and no reason to contact them. But the stressing of the rules about sand, sitting on the furniture, not eating in the living room just gives the feeling like you can't relax. And for all the mentions of the hair ties for the towels, I didn’t see a single one, not that they were needed. It just felt like a lots of rules compared to all the other vrbos I've rented. Oh, and the hairdryer is one of those snub nose things you find in a hotel so if you need a real one, bring your own (the whole place has a motel vibe - including the lighting). Overall just fine.

Clean, Excellent Communication and Lots of Extras

The owner goes above and beyond in every way. The condo is packed with lots of extras-toiletries, hair dryer, washer/dryer, paper towels, laundry detergent, dish washing detergent, lots of pots, pans, dishes, utensils, towels, beach towels and washcloths. The owner is very easy to contact, responds immediately to text messages and is very kind and cordial. It is a three bedroom, two bath compact condo, but for a small family or short 3-4 day weekend, it is big enough. The elevator is fast and delivers you to just outside the condo door. The condo is quiet and we were not bothered by any noise from the neighbors. Right now, the only drawbacks are the work being done on the pier that is located a few hundred feet to the right (reason for 4 stars) and the lack of parking right at the condo building. However, there is a parking deck just across the street in front of The Palms that provides more parking. The location of The Palms is very convenient to anything you may need.

About the host

Hosted by Michele Carpenter & Chuck Carpenter

Host profile image
Hi! I'm Michele!

My husband and I are both USAF veterans. He is from Georgia, I am from Indiana, and we met in Alaska and honeymooned in Hawaii. Our sons were born in California (1) and in Germany (2). We enjoy traveling and have been blessed to have visited numerous states and countries. I enjoy meeting people from all over the world, even if it is only through messages or social media. My favorite cities (besides Myrtle Beach) are Paris, Venice, Dublin, Trier, Prague, Honolulu, Chicago, San Miquel de Allende, and San Antonio. I especially love Hawaii, Alaska, Switzerland, Germany, Western USA, and so many more.

I love to read and devour at least one book a week. I especially enjoy political thrillers and murder mysteries. Naturally, my condo is stashed with books!

If I could afford the calories I would be a foodie! I love the food of all nations. Especially Thai, Indian, Greek, Italian, and Southern USA. I returned to college after many years and can proudly say I am now a Culinary Arts School drop-out! Okay, the school closed through no fault of my own!

I have studied many languages beginning with 8th grade Latin (Britiannia insula est), then German (Deutch ist leicht! Wirklich?), Spanish (¿Qué camino a la playa?), French (Où est la gare? Quelle gare? C'est la plage!), Hebrew (3 weeks. אוי גוועלד Oy gevalt!), Russian (darn that alphabet! Проклятый алфавит!), and Italian (My favorite travel phase- Quattro cappuccini per favore!). Sadly, I can only get by in a few of them, but they do come in handy while traveling!

Why they chose this property

On Thanksgiving 2016 we took a family vacation to Myrtle Beach and stayed at The Palms. We fell in love with the location, the views, and the 3-bedroom condos. So, Thanksgiving 2017 we returned to The Palms. This time we purchased our own bit of paradise in this lovely unit. We are very excited to offer you the same enjoyments that we discovered. This business allows us to work from almost anywhere in the world and has been a wonderful experience.

What makes this property unique

Your neighborhood is the best location in Myrtle Beach. It is close by the "action" but far enough away for quietude. There are numerous restaurants, shops, and amusements within walking distance.

Our 14th floor corner unit has unobstructed views that will make you to never want to leave- we understand completely! So, please come and relax with the sounds of gentle waves on the beach!
