Pura Vida Villa: Luxury coastal retreat with private pool
Escape to paradise at Pura Vida Villa in "Olde Murrells Inlet"! Perfectly situated moments from the ocean & the iconic bars and restaurants of Murrells Inlet's Marshwalk, this centrally located retreat offers complete serenity amidst convenience.
With a private pool, outdoor kitchen, and fenced-in .5-acre backyard, there's no reason to leave... But when you must, you'll have easy access to the Marina/public boat ramp, Huntington Beach State Park, charming boutiques, and fabulous golf courses.
THE SPACE
Indulge in the epitome of coastal luxury at Pura Vida Villa, where simple pleasures are cherished and time moves more slowly.
No detail was overlooked at this 4-bed, 3-bath haven. The home's interior is meticulously appointed with luxury furnishings from Anthropologie, Article, Pottery Barn, and local artisans. The fully-stocked gourmet kitchen boasts high-end essentials from Williams Sonoma, Caraway Cookware, and Pyrex, ensuring a delightful culinary experience... and has absolutely everything you'll need to prepare delicious meals with locally sourced seafood from Harrelson's or Seven Seas!
Each of the four bedrooms is adorned with sumptuous bedding from Brooklyn Bedding, Quince, and Parachute Home. Don't plan any activities too early in the morning... and get ready for the best sleep of your life!
Sleeping arrangements:
- Ze Master (Downstairs): 1 King Bed (Sleeps 2)
- Chill Vibes (Downstairs): 1 King Bed + 2 Twin Trundles (Sleeps 4)
- Tropic of Murrells (Upstairs): 1 Queen Bed (Sleeps 2)
- Trundle Fundle (Upstairs): 2 Twin Beds + 2 Twin Trundles (Sleeps 4)
Whether you're on vacation or working remotely, PVV has you covered: entertainment is right at your fingertips with two 65" Samsung Frame Smart TVs, and the high-speed Eero mesh WiFi network has no dead zones throughout the home thanks to multiple WiFi repeaters.
Outdoors, your options are endless: Take a refreshing dip in the large private pool, start up a competitive game of cornhole, giant jenga or ring toss, or barbecue on the high-end Coyote grill. After a long day in the sun, unwind with a cocktail on the spacious wraparound deck or enjoy al fresco dining in the backyard.
LOCATION
Pura Vida Villa is 2 blocks (less than a 5-minute walk) from the Murrells Inlet Marshwalk, a lively boardwalk with fine dining, live music, and great bars. Huntington Beach State Park is 3.9 miles (a 6-minute drive) from the villa, and an annual pass is provided so your entry is free. Garden City's public beach is a second option, only 3.5 miles away. The Waccamaw Neck Bikeway is also steps away, with 12 miles of coastline trails that you can walk or bike. If boating is more your vibe, you will be happy to hear PVV has dedicated space for boat parking...and you can see the entrance to the public boat ramp from the driveway!
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
Please note the pool is NOT heated.
The bedrooms do not have TVs, but there are two 65” TVs in the home— one in each living room—and one TV by the outdoor grill.
The left garage bay is 9’6. There is space on the side of the home suitable for boat parking.
Exterior Nest security cameras are installed on the front and back of the home for insurance purposes only. NO cameras are actively monitored for guest privacy!
We continuously enhance our home and upload new photos regularly, so keep an eye out for the latest updates.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sean Gustafson

Hello! My name is Sean and I have been traveling for work for close to 20 years. During my travels there have been a handful of places I would always want to go back to. My goal is to have a property in each of those places! I have a long way to go to get there, but VRBO allows me to share my love for these cities while bringing me closer to my goal!
Why they chose this property
Murrells Inlet will always be a special place to me. Between the beaches, marsh, easy ocean access, and amazing food & entertainment of the Marsh Walk it has everything you would ever need for a great vacation. If that weren't enough you are a short drive to Myrtle Beach, Surfside, Litchfield, and Pawleys Island.
Olde Murrells Inlet specifically is right in the middle of it all! Steps from the Marsh Walk & boat ramp, 10 minutes to the beach, and easy access to highways to explore nearby towns make it the most convenient spot on the Grand Strand.

What makes this property unique
After a year of living on the beach I kept finding myself wanting to go to the Marsh Walk. Between the great food, live music, live sports, and themed events there is always something going on here. Add in not having to deal with beach traffic and flooding and we were sold this is the place to be.
When we found Pura Vida Villa it was love at first sight. Perfect location, wraparound porch, private pool, outdoor kitchen, and a MASSIVE back yard had us sold before we even stepped foot inside. When we did the open concept, custom cabinets, and 10 ft ceilings sealed the deal.
