About this property

Gorgeous Oceanfront Top Floor Condo w Pool!

Situated on the top level of the Paradise Tower condo complex, "As Good As It Gets" offers spectacular views of the ocean. The top floor condo is located across the street from the ocean and offers an oceanfront pool with access to an outdoor shower and restroom facilities. The Spartanburg public beach access (Lifeguard station 9) is directly next to the oceanfront pool for easy access onto the beach. The elevator offers a convenient ride to the sixth level when your legs cannot take the stairs from the beachcombing, surfing, and fishing that you've experienced at the beach all day.

As you enter the condo, you will find a Queen bedroom on the left with a bathroom that can be accessed from the hallway. The hallway leads you to the kitchen where you will find all of your cooking essentials and a Keurig to get you going in the morning. The living room offers updated furniture and ample seating to take in the view from the expansive slider. The slider door opens up to a large deck that spans the living room and primary bedroom. The primary bedroom features a Queen bed and en suite bathroom.

This place was amazing! Very clean, plenty of room for 4 people. Close to everything, I enjoy parking & not have to drive anywhere, everything was in a 1/2 mile walk. The area of the beach was not as crowded & clean which is a must! Will definitely book this place again!

Wonderful vacation spot

We really enjoyed our stay! Great location and the view is amazing. Updated master bathroom. Condo was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed waking up to the ocean views. Easy to get to the beach and a lifeguard stand right at the beach access. The pool is not deep (5ft) but it was always clean and it was a refreshing way to end the day. Boardwalk is close enough to walk and of course we enjoyed Britts Donuts a couple of times throughout the week. Wouldn’t change a thing, unless it was to just stay longer😊 Hoping to stay again soon!!

Great location

The room was spacious, the balcon was incredible, the wall to the beach was a little more than anticipated but I was previously very spoiled by an extremely short walk. This was very doable. Even for my mom with mobility issues. The pool was the the best kept pool I have ever been in. The on-site outdoor shower was soo handy. Spacious parking, accessible elevator (elevator needs updating). Well stocked kitchen and great layout. Highly recommend this property and the rental company.

Wish we could have stayed there!

Didn’t get to stay in the condo! Flooding didn’t allow us to stay there in this condo that we booked 3 months prior. Two days after we arrived, someone else was in this condo that we so much wanted to experience. It was a much disappointment!

We regret to hear about the inconvenience you experienced with the condo booking due to unexpected flooding. We did experience a major flood prior to your arrival that did affect the access to this specific unit, and in turn we provided adequate alternatives. These circumstances were very unforseen and we appreciate your understanding as our team diligently and swiftly worked to move all of our guests and ensure not only their safety, but the safety of our team. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to the opportunity to serve you better in the future.

The bathtub stopper didn’t work so couldn’t use the bathtub and the property manager wasn’t responsive to us mentioning it. As has been reported by others, the door handle in the main balcony is broken, but it was a great location and unit that we enjoyed a lot and would return to.

Great view!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view from the living room and large balcony was outstanding. The location was great. The unit was clean and the kitchen was stocked with all needed dishes, cookware, and utensils. The sitting area in the living room was a bit uncomfortable. There were plenty of extra blankets and pillows. There was no hot water at the sink, which made me wonder if the dishwasher had hot water.
Response from VrboOwner on 13 Oct 2022
Beth, We are so glad you enjoyed the property and the views! That balcony is hard to beat! We do not see a service order where you reported the hot water issue. We would have loved the opportunity to double check this while you were at the property. Our team has since checked and there are no issues with the hot water. We hope you will visit again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: "As Good As It Gets" lived up to its name. This unit had all the comforts of home in an oceanfront unit, including a Keurig machine. It was clean and wonderfully decorated. Most of all, the ocean views on the deck couldn't be beat! My time there was heavenly. My brother and sister-in-law enjoyed it, too. Another strong point was its location. It was close to Carolina Beach Lake, the Boardwalk, restaurants and shops. I would highly recommend this property to other family members looking for an accessible unit close to the beach.

Eastern view gives you front row seat to every sunrise and afternoon shade on the balcony - nice! Beds are nice and firm. Wi-Fi router probably needs replacement, as music streaming on our Dots was inconsistent. There were very few people at the complex; so 6th-floor access was easy but I could imagine that only one elevator could be an issue at other times, especially if there were to be a power outage…
