We loved the condo, the view, and the Surfside Beach area. The Condo was very clean and confortable. We enjoyed dining at several of the seafood restaraunts in the area and walking on the beach. The only thing that would have made our stay more enjoyable would have been an elevator to get to and from our top floor condo.

Owner response:Hey! I am glad you liked the condo and Surfside Beach. The view from the large balcony is worth the walk. In the off season it is 10 degree's warmer on balcony. With the center wall you are protected from wind. This means you can tan in October or April. And if the stairs are too much, check out my first floor property VRBO 87982!

it was a great place to stay. it was very nice, clean, well maintained and right on the beach in a very nice area. Have no reason not to stay there again on our next trip to myrtle beach/surfside SC. Condo appeared to be on the best beach compared to the surrounding areas!

Just wanted to let you know that we had such a wonderful time at your condo! It was beautifully appointed and very clean, and we immediately felt like we were "home" as soon as we stepped in the door! The view from the balcony is unbeatable. We were there during a pretty slow time of the year, and the beaches were uncrowded and just gorgeous. Made for wonderful walks in the morning! We got to experience some wonderful local restaurants while we were there, both in Surfside and Murrell's Inlet. Charleston Cafe was our favorite! Still thinking about the sound of the waves breaking on shore and watching the unbelievable night skies on the balcony while sipping a cocktail. Can't wait to come back!! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Just beautiful.

Owner response:We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate it! We work hard to make it the best it can be! Thank you so much! Melinda

My wife and I stayed a week at this condo and wished we could have stayed another. Everything is just superb; nice and clean; very comfortable. There was nothing we needed, except more time to stay. We will be back, for sure.

Owner response:Thanks for the review! I agree with you! Once I get there, I leave all my troubles behind. I live on "surfside" time.... Simplicity, nice and clean with a perfect view!

Best place we've stayed in Surfside

We were there in Aug 2010. We had a great time. We really enjoyed having a full size laundry room. There is actually more privacy between the bedrooms than it looks like. We loved the balcony. We had plenty of hot water and the air conditioning worked great (some places have a limit on the ac). There was also plenty of storage places. We had a wonderful vacation!

Owner response:Thank You once again! I am so glad you liked the condo. I love the feeling of privacy in the condo and out. The small complex gives you plenty of space on the beach. I am glad yall had a good time. Tell all your friends about us! Great Fall Rates!

My family and I had a wonderful time at the condo. It was extremely clean, comfortable, and was more than we even dreamed! Six of us had plenty of room to relax and unwind after spending our hot days on the beach. And with a little one, it was wonderful to be able to go back and forth from the condo to the beach. Also, we loved the short walk down to the pier and breakfast at Nibils! We can't wait to come back next summer! Thanks!

Owner response:Thanks So Much! I am looking forward to going down there myself! It is important to me that people enjoy their stay in my unit. I try to accomodate everyone with nice furnishings and bedding. I look forward to updating and keeping the unit to the best of the best. My cleaning lady is the greatest! She cleans everything! And I mean everything. We do spring cleaning, fall cleaning....I am lucky to have her.

Experience the Daily Sunrise Right from Your Bed

Another winter season in your charming condo. The view every single morning from the bedroom or balcony put us close to nature and the changing dynamics of the sea. The condo itself is really special with an amazingly well-appointed kitchen. Where do you find a nutcracker and two garlic presses in a beach rental property?Definitely a kitchen for a real cook.The rest of the apartment in Charleston style has a palm tree/ pineapple motif throughout. Whimsical touches (for example the monkey lamp in the foyer) kept us smiling. Younger guests could busy themselves numbering the palm trees. Don't forget the bathroom wall paper. A place we would definitely return to. Thanks, Melinda, for creating this experience.

Owner response:Hello! I am so glad you were able to come again this year. It is important to me that everything is nice in the unit for you! Thanks, Melinda!

The minute we walked into the condo we were in awe!!! The furnishings are so comfortable and made us feel like we were at the Caribbean! So clean and decorated so beautifully! The balcony is so spacious and the views to die for!!! Our only regret is that we won't be able to come back this year due to layoffs. :( Hope to be back next year!!!

Owner response:Thank You So Much!! I am so glad you liked it. I am on the way there today to make sure everything is perfect! Melinda!

Great place all around. The price is very fair for what you get. Great view, ocean front with no big buildings around, and very close to many things.

Owner response:I am glad you liked the condo. I like everything to feel new!

We were very pleased to find the condo beautifully decorated, stocked with every appliance needed and very clean. The view from the balcony is spectacular. We had several great days of beach and golf weather. There were really terrific restaurants in the area. Sara J's, Bubba's Fish Shack and of course Dead Dawg's, all were terrific and close by! It was a great place to stay and we will plan to do it again. Thanks Melinda for such a great condo! The Dudleys....

The headline for this unit says it all - "nicest condo on the beach". We are returning this spring for the fourth time - we love it that much. The view is spectacular from the deck. We look forward each year to the latest updates. We can hardly wait to sip early morning coffee on the renovated balcony this year. Thank you for sharing your paradise with us.

Owner response:Thanks Gary! I feel like yall are family!

This is the second time I have stayed at the Lighthouse II. The first time I stayed in #5. Number 5 is beautifully and tastefully decorated! This has been one of the best vacations I have had in years. We barely left the condo; we went shopping in the beginning, did our cooking here, and took full advantage of the beach. Most of all, just sitting in the living room listening to the ocean was a pleasure. We brought our laptops thinking we could find a cafe with wireless and had a pleasant surprise when we arrived. I must say you thought of everything. WE WILL BE BACK! Thank you for sharing your vacation home with my sister and me. Sincerely, Pat

Owner response:Thanks Pat. It is secret heaven! I find ultimate peace looking out at the view.
