Our family of ten (six adults, four kids ages 5 to 14) had a wonderful time in Ocean Quarters C. Diane, the owner, was incredibly helpful, answering all my questions in the weeks leading up to our stay. The condo was clean and spacious and had everything we needed. The location simply cannot be beat! Beach access is directly across the street. We are already making plans to come back next summer.

Owner response:Thanks Julie and family! We'll be happy to see you again next year! So glad you all had a good time. And thanks for the head's up on the lights that needed replacing. I'm sure the next guests appreciate having good lighting. Hope the rest of your summer is relaxing and you have a great year ahead!

Great great location! Excellent value! We enjoyed our stay so much- the access to the beach is right there across the street. Perfect layout for our two families to share- even with teenagers. This condo is also along the nicest part of the strip and so convenient to everything. Highly recommend staying here!

Owner response:Jodi, it was great having you and we're glad you all had a good time. And thanks for the suggestions you gave us - we're always looking for ways to make things just a little bit better each time! We look forward to seeing you again and hope the rest of your summer is super!

Fabulous Week at Ocean Quarters C

Our stay in Ocean Quarters was wonderful! My family and I enjoyed our vacation and especially liked the fact that the condo was directly across from the beach...second row! We enjoyed the sunrise on the deck and the pool in the afternoons. The owners were great and very helpful! They were very quick to respond to all of our questions. The listing description is very accurate! They even had board games and cards for our children to enjoy! The master bedroom is very large, so the picture doesn't do it justice! We recommend Sara J's Restaurant. It's 2-3 miles down in Garden City. Yummy! I wouldn't hesitate recommending Ocean Quarters C to my friends and family!

Owner response:Thanks April and Jeff and kids. We're so glad you had a great time! And thanks for reminding us about Sara J's. We haven't been there in a long time and will have to get back there again soon! We hope we'll see you again soon, too! Enjoy the rest of your summer. Chris and Diane

I am so happy to have found a home in Surfside Beach. We would not hesitate to recommend this vacation home to our friends and to come back again. It is located right across the street from the ocean access and convenient to all of the Grand strand if you wish, but also the quiet, slower pace of Murrells Inlet. The owners are very helpful and take care of all the details. We had a great time and loved our vacation week at Ocean's Quarters. Be sure if you want a golf cart to rent it from Trudy at Surfside rentals, she is awesome...My kids loved the new WOnderworks at Broadway at the beach so don't miss that either....

Owner response:Thanks Jonna for the kind words. It was really great meeting your lovely family. You reminded us so much of our family (5 kids) when we were younger. I'm glad you guys took some great memories home and we'd love to see you again. Enjoy the rest of your summer!! Diane and Chris

Winter of 2011

This is our second winter at Ocean Quarters "C" and we've enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!! The unit is well equipped, well maintained, bright and cheerful, exactly as describled in the listing. We especially enjoy the morning sun streaming through the front windows. This we'll miss as we head for home. The close priximity to the ocean makes it all the more enjoyable - great for our daily walks on the beach. The homeowners are a delight to deal with which makes it even more special! We'd highly recommend Ocean Quarters "C" to anyone who's planning to visit Surfside Beach. The location is perfect - with easy access to everything - the ocean, golf courses, restaurants, shopping, attractions, etc. We definitely recommend the Crystalite Cafe on Business 17 just around the corner! Great for breakfast! Thanks Diane and Chris. We look forward to returning next year!! The Shannons

Owner response:Thanks, so much. We'll miss you and look forward to seeing you next year. You are great guests and we're glad you enjoyed your stay. I'm glad the weather turned a little warmer for the last part of your stay, after our unusually cold winter. We'll try to do better with the weather next year -:)

Wonderful Vacation Home!

Hi Diane, I just wanted to thank you for renting your beach home to us this past week. You were a pleasure to deal with & answered all our questions promptly. We had an incredible time, & did not want to leave - we could have stayed FOREVER! The house was perfect in every way & was everything we expected plus more. The decor was super cute in every room & was well maintained. The kitchen had everything we needed, too. The charcoal grill was small, but it served its purpose & we managed to grill out 2 times during the week. Since we have propane grills at home, we left the lighter fluid for future guests. The pool was smaller than expected (not a lap pool), but it was so refreshing & the kids couldn't get enough of it. We enjoyed just hanging out at the pool after a long day at the beach, & since the pool is only for the three condos, there was plenty of room & was never over crowded. Lastly, we could not have asked for a better location, either. The walk to the beach was quick & easy, & the beach wasn't crowded to the point where you couldn't find a seat (it was PERFECT). The fireworks were amazing on the 4th & what a treat to sit on the beach & watch them being fired off from the pier & all around. The kids had a ball, & my daughter cried yesterday morning when we left (okay, so did I). In fact, she cried most of the way home. It truly was a pleasure renting from you! We would highly recommend Ocean Quarters "C" to all future renters for their next vacation. It is centrally located & easy to get to area attractions, but far enough away from the hustle & bustle of the Myrtle Beach crowds. We loved Wild Water & Wheels, which is literally just down the street (had a blast over there). Family Kingdom in MB was just a short drive (15 mins), as was Murrells Inlet. Surfside Pier is walking distance & I would definitely recommend eating at Nibbles - good food & reasonably priced. Their fish & chips were to die for. We ate at Bovines one night & for the price ($$$$), it was not worth it. Same for Saprofino's. Food was average, service was just okay...for 2 adults & 1 child, our bill was $80...we had one appetizer, I had water, my husband had ice tea & my daughter had ginger ale...). Also just up the street were two major supermarkets (Bi-Lo & Piggly Wiggly), which made it so convenient. I’m sure you will love it at Ocean Quarters “C”. Thanks again, The Pringles (7/3 thru 7/10, 2010)

Owner response:Thanks guys! We're so glad you had a great time. I know you were really looking forward to this trip and I'm glad you love Surfside Beach as much as we do. I hope we'll see you again next year! Chris and Diane

We normally stay in a 3 bedroom villa inside of a campground, and after trying out this house we will never step foot in the campground again! Working with the owner was great, the process was very smooth with no issues. The only thing that would have made our stay better, was being inside the oceanfront house directly across the street! ha but for the price and considering how close it is to the ocean, you simply can't beat it. I brought my 2 year old, and she loved the private pool. So did my parents, as they spent more time in the pool than the ocean. Being older, it was very convenient to just walk down the stairs and be right at the pool, not to mention half of the pool area is in the shade. They haven't spent that much time in the water relaxing in years they said. There was a grill provided, and I grilled out roughly 4/5 nights of the 7 nights which normally we eat out every single night. Having the full kitchen was nice, and basically anything we needed. The condo was very roomy, and unlike the villa we normally stay at where we always encounter bugs/ants I don't even think I saw a one here. Far as the interior goes, everything was clean and I ran into no issues. Yea the condo's not equipped with granite counter, tile baths and floors but overall it's nice. An oceanfront condo equipped with all of that may cost you double, and this place has all you need. We brought our golf cart with us, even though it wasn't necessary since we were so close to the beach. We did get to ride down to the surfside pier/River City Cafe, down to Garden City where the pier/shops are, and just a short walking distance they have a huge playground that's very nice and well kept up. It's on the same road as the condo so if you don't drive its only a couple blocks away. Overall our entire family loved it, and would highly recommend it as we will stay here again.

Owner response:Thanks Matt! I'm so glad you and your family had a great time. It does make us happy to know that our guests are really enjoying themselves and taking home great memories! We'll keep working to make Ocean Quarters even better in the year ahead! Enjoy the rest of your summer. Chris and Diane

Look no further then Unit C of Ocean Quarters if you need accommodations for a large family or group of friends. This unit, with four bedrooms, sleeps 11 and is located on Ocean Blvd in a quiet residential area just a short walk (less then 100 yards ) to the beach, yet is only a short drive to all that Myrtle Beach has to offer. The unit is well equipped, spacious, clean and has a balcony overlooking Ocean Blvd on each level. There is a pool on sight and having your own washer and dryer is a big plus. Oh, did I forget to mention the jacuzzi in the master bedroom. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Owner response:Dear Sandi and Fred, Thanks so much. We're so glad you had a good time. We look forward to having you again. We're planning on some renovations in the near future so hopefully, the next time things will be even better! Chris and Diane

We would highly recommend this unit to anyone who is considering a beach vacation. It was perfectly located across from the ocean with easy access to the beach. The accomodation was beautifully decorated witih bright cheerful colours. We especially liked the morning sun coming in through the front windows, and the upper and lower balconies. The beds are very comfortable with plenty of space for a family. The condo was clean and well equipped with everything we needed for our winter stay...especially the kitchen! Any questions we had were answered promptly by the owners who are very pleasant to deal with! The location is perfect for beach lovers as well as those who like to shop, golf or sightsee. It's close to many golf courses, shopping and highway access! We definitely plan to return!!

Owner response:Thanks George and Susan. We're glad you enjoyed your stay in spite of the miserable winter we had! We look forward to seeing you again next year! Take care and have a wonderful summer!

Unit C was a great vacation choice for us--plenty of room for grandparents, adult child (and significant other) and teen. Close to the beach, quiet pool to relax by. Cheerfully decorated and nicely appointed--plenty of room for all 7 of us, including parking room for 3 cars. Would definitely recommend to others.
