WELCOME TO OUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME!! Our condo was built in 2006 with all first class amenities and is tastefully decorated in a "British West Indies" flare. Known as "Island Vista", our condo has a true resort feel and is located in a quiet residential neighborhood known as the "GOLDEN MILE". Located on over 500 feet of sandy beach, Island Vista is situated on one of the least crowded areas in Myrtle Beach. You will be near the action and away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown area.
My wife and I have been vacationing in Myrtle Beach for the past 20 years and we were finally able to purchase a place of our own. After an exhausting search we stumbled upon "Island Vista". Even though it was over our target price range, as soon as we walked in, we knew this was the place we would call home.
Our condo is located on a lower level in the center of the resort with a beach view of north and south Myrtle Beach. There is covered parking to load and unload luggage and groceries on the floor of the condo. Additionally, the hallways are covered and climate controlled and very clean. It is also convenient to have the option of using the stairs or the high-speed elevators.
When inside the condo, there is a view of the palm trees, beach, and the ocean from the kitchen, dining room, living room and master bedroom. It is comforting to see the kids swim from the spacious kitchen while you cook. It is also romantic seeing and hearing the ocean from your bed as you watch the beautiful sunrise.
Island Vista is filled with wonderful amenities and conveniences. There are two outdoor pools, one indoor pool and lazy river and one indoor and one outdoor jacuzzi. Try out the on-site 4 star restaurant serving breakfast and dinner daily. Additionally, a favorite of ours is the poolside "Tiki Hut" featuring frozen drinks, cocktails and casual food. So come and relax while your children participate in a number of complimentary supervised activities (Summer months only) to include: poolside games, arts and crafts, scavenger hunts, and pizza and movie nights.
We share so many wonderful memories here and hope you will make our condo part of your family's vacation memories and that you will feel as comfortable as we do. We understand there are many vacation rental options available and we are confident you will find our condo everything you're searching for and more. If you feel our condo is what you are looking for or have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to call.
NOTE: We network with several other Island Vista property owners. Please do not hesitate to contact us regarding accommodating larger groups.

Why the Owner Chose Island Vista
My wife and I have been vacationing in Myrtle Beach for the past 20 years and we were finally able to purchase a place of our own. After an exhausting search we stumbled upon "Island Vista". Our condo was built in 2006 with all first class amenities and is tastefully decorated in a "British West Indies" flare.

The Unique Benefits at this Condo
When I am at my condo in Myrtle Beach, it truely feels like "My Home Away from Home". Whether we come for a long weekend or a two week visit, we are just so relaxed here we will some day call it our permanent home. We have all the amenities at our resort and the area is just perfect for our family "ANY TIME OF THE YEAR". The weather is wonderful all year long, the golfing is great for me and the dining and shopping make my wife even happier. There is so much to do here from seeing a show or just "chillin" on the beach. Island Vista is the perfect place to stay for a family vacation, a romantic getaway, a men's golf retreat or even a girls weekend getaway. But even if you wan't to just hang out, "Island Vista's" onsite restaurant, Tiki hut bar and grill, wonderful pool complex, hot tubs, tanning lawn and the list goes on and on, make it the perfect getaway!!

Island Vista is a beautiful property, nestled amongst grand homes, making it feel less commercial and more residential. The condo is absolutely gorgeous and spacious with a spectacular view of the ocean. The weather was amazing and even though is was late November, the kids were able to play in the ocean and take advantage of the lazy river and pools. We had easy access to all the Myrtle Beach attractions. Gary was so easy to work with and helped make our Thanksgiving very memorable.

This was the first time we have rented through owner so I was nervous, but Gary and Lisa went beyond expectations! When I had any questions I got a quick response and it was so reassuring! We arrived and everything was just amazing in the condo--clean and beautiful! We were so excited to get to the beach but got to the balcony and just relaxed on the wonderful chairs and to the view all in!!!! So beautiful! We felt like we were at home--everything we needed was there! I have never been so relaxed at the beach before! This condo is really great located--yes you can go out and enjoy the fast pace fun of the Broadway and Barefoot but when you get back---you feel as if it is your own little beach!!! I just loved it! We enjoyed the Ultimate California pizza a few times on this trip! Can't wait to be able to visit again!!!

A MUCH NEEDED VACATION........THE PERFECT GET AWAY CONDO

Thanks so much for allowing us to spend our family vacation at your condo. The photos of the condo does not do it justice. The decor is beautiful and is so spacious. My favorite spot was the master bedroom; at night you could hear the waves rolling which was very calming to me. The condo is perfectly, centrally located and is a short drive to all the restaurants and attractions. I would recommend anyone that needs a quiet, calming vacation to consider staying here. Both clean and well maintained you could not ask for me. We look foward to staying there again. Again.......thanks a million for the perfect escape from our busy world.

-It really is just like the pictures! Everything was just as you would want it for a trouble free relaxing vacation, without all of the usual fuss of worrying and preparing for it yourself. Thank you Gary for attending to all the details in making it so effortless to enjoy! How nice to have a code and walk in- no waiting in line for check in. Parking on the same level as the condo and not having to drag your belongings and groceries (and kids!) through the lobby and up to your floor. Everything you could want to reach for was ready and waiting- local food recommendations, pots pans silverware to cook at home, beach chairs and towels and toys begging to be used. It was so nice to have the space for everyone to spread out, but still be able to come together and hang out. We laughed and said the dining room table was a waste of money, not that it wasn't beautiful along with all the other decor, just that it didn't get touched. Our at home meals were all served on the balcony admiring the beautiful view. The choices in outdoors pools kept the little ones occupied while I melted stress away in the jacuzzi, and when the weather was less than perfect, they enjoyed the lazy river. It was nice to be close to town, but not stuck in the middle of the chaos. We would watch the beautiful sunrises (from bed!) go to the beach and play, go exploring (to the Boardwalk, Broadway, Murrells Inlet, and Calabash NC for some fishing) and then retreat to our getaway and the welcoming jacuzzi. Our nightly ritual became watching the surfers as the sun was setting, then heading into town for a "Hot Now" Krispy Kreme. (not the best choice when you're putting on a swimsuit the next morning, but they sure are good!) We didn't visit the on site restaurant, but noted how delicious the menu sounded. The room, the staff and the ammeneties were all we hoped for and more. It was so comfortable. It was truly a home away from home, and very difficult to leave.

I cannot say enough good things about our experience at Island Vista. The condo is even more beautiful in person. The chair and umbrella rental at the beach was a nice added surprise. The tiki bar served great drinks and an even better lunch. The beach/pool areas were not crowded. The kitchen has wonderful appliances and all of the conveniences of home. We wanted for NOTHING on this trip. 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, a lazy river, wonderful beaches and weather. You are right on the ocean. The beach is just steps away. Plenty to keep you busy and all within a short drive - shopping, dining, fishing and sightseeing. We wasted very little time in the car getting from place to place. If you are planning a trip, do yourself a favor and book with Gary and Lisa. You will not be disappointed.

My husband, two daughers and their two friends really enjoyed staying at this condo. Gary was very helpful with making our final arrangements prior to our trip and very helpful during our stay. The condo is very roomy and bigger than other condos we have stayed in. The pictures online accurately reflect the condo's amenities and it was very clean and maintained. Would definitely recommend this condo to family and friends.

This was our first visit to the beach in 20 years and our children's visit to the ocean. We could not have picked a better place to stay. Gary answered all of our questions, was easy to work with and made sure we had everything we needed. The condo is beautifully decorated and the balcony has great views. Island Vista is a beautiful resort. The kids liked it so much they want to live here. We can't wait to return. SOON!!!!!!!!
Owner response:Thank you foe the comments. We love Island Vista too. Hopefully one day we can make it more of a second home. We love opening our vacation home to our guests and we are glad they feel the same way we do. Remember to book for next year early! Gary and Lisa

Our family has been to Myrtle Beach approx 20 times and by far this was the best condo and location we have had. It was a short distance to Barefoot Landing, Broadway at the Beach, shopping malls....all of which we love to do. The condo was beautifully decorated, spacious and the oceanfront view was awesome! The owners are so prompt in answering any questions you may have and are so gracious in assuring your stay is all you could ever imagine.
Owner response:Hi Paul and Paula, Thanks again for staying with us. We hope to have the next 20 visits in out condo. Thanks for being such great guests!! Gary and Lisa
