Direct Oceanfront 15th Floor Penthouse Views, 3 Bed 2.5 Bath Water's Edge Resort
Our penthouse paradise and all it has to offer are ready for you! Great location with many excellent 5 star reviews, so you know exactly what to expect in this privately owned and operated condo! Penthouse #1512 at Water's Edge Resort is a spacious 3 bedroom 2.5 bath direct oceanfront condo on the family friendly Garden City Beach, SC, located in the seafood capital of Murrells Inlet. Sitting on the beautiful Atlantic Ocean coastline, just south of the popular Myrtle Beach Grand Strand, our 15 floor concrete and steel building (painted in shades of blue) is within walking distance of all the fun offered at the Garden City Pier and Atlantic Avenue attractions. The Surfside Pier and restaurants are just to our north, also considered walking distance to some visitors. Convenience is essential on vacation, and check-in is easy with a keypad door lock code assigned to you, so no keys and management desk to deal with on arrival or checking out. Just go straight to your condo and enjoy! Please note that this unit is non-smoking and no pets allowed per HOA regulations, smoking area designated on site.
The breathtaking panoramic views from this penthouse end unit on the 15th floor will spoil you! From the moment you step off of the elevator onto the entry walkway and see the inlet view... to the oceanfront balconies of the living room and master bedroom... even the views from all of the bedroom windows...you will be mesmerized as you relax to the sounds and sights of the ocean. Being on the penthouse level and an end unit, you won't have the neighbor noise above you or near the bedrooms, so you will have the quietest condo in the building. Set your alarm for the gorgeous sunrises over the ocean and spectacular inlet sunsets, and get your camera and favorite beverage ready! Enjoy our large private balconies, furnished with sturdy bar height resin furniture and chaise lounge chairs. Pelicans, seagulls, pigeons, and Bald Eagles fly by the balconies, sometimes with their catch of the day. Turtles, dolphins, sharks, stingrays, schools of fish, and even whales can sometimes be seen in the ocean below. You will love seeing along the coastline in all directions!
This fully equipped 1565 sq ft condo easily sleeps 8 to 10 guests and allows you to enjoy your vacation with conveniences of home.

It usually doesn't require a cancelation, and I will do my best to be fair and understanding in each situation.

An Emergency issued by state or federal government that requires an evacuation of the immediate area qualifies as a refund for any remaining nights and without penalty. Tropical storms that do not result in evacuations do not qualify for refunds, sorry, but they do sometimes make wonderous events to witness. Please notify us of any maintenance issues so we can repair them immediately. Thank you!

We look forward to you coming back! Thanks so much for your wonderful review and for letting potential guests know what they can expect when staying at our condo! I love that you shared a family photo, too.
Everything was fabulous. The pool and beach access was right there. The view was unmatched. We had six adults in their 50s. Enough seating for everyone in the living room and at the kitchen table. The bedrooms were great, especially the master. The only "negative" about our stay: the oven was hit or miss, cooking very unevenly. Otherwise, the stay was perfect.
After many years at Myrtle and many stays at Waters Edge, this by far is the nicest unit we’ve had there…. Beautiful decor, amazing view, super stocked with everything you could possibly need from kitchen to towels (both bath and beach) very clean unit. Most importantly Tandra was wonderful to work with…. Easy everything… definitely rent again!!

About the host
Hosted by Tandra Lintz
Garden City Beach is my (Tandra's) hometown, so it's always been a favorite location to vacation and visit with family and friends. My husband, Dennis, and I love Water's Edge Resort so much that we own two condos at our favorite place on the Grand Strand. We have been owners at Water's Edge since 2014 when we purchased our 2 bedroom 2 bath unit #1411 (VRBO 3206815), newly added to VRBO in 2023. Our dreams came true in 2020 when we were able to acquire our 3 bedroom unit, penthouse #1512 (VRBO 1915381), which immediately started us on our VRBO adventures of renting a property on our own. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me here or on my Facebook business page "1411 & 1512 at Water's Edge Resort Oceanfront Condos, Garden City Beach, SC." I love talking with our guests and welcome private rentals as well as via our VRBO platform! We wish you many happy memories to be made while vacationing in our little slices of paradise, and we're very thankful for our guests! Sincerely, Tandra Lintz
