Excellent property, stayed there 4 nights with family of 5. Beachfront, spacious, clean, good location and many amenities. 100% recommend this option.We were unfortunate that indoor pool was being remodeled and weather got a bit chilly when we visited so wouldve been nice to have as option.

We are so glad you enjoyed your visit and hope you will come back on your next vacation. Yes, the indoor pool was being updated; they sprung that on us recently. I'm happy the outdoor heated pools, the lazy river, and the hot tub were open and heated. When you come back, I will adjust the rate a bit to help make up for indoor pools being closed. Thanks again for the nice note.

Great Condo

Great location. 6 blocks from Main Street North Myrtle Beach. Very clean, comfortable, & space to spread out. We spent every day at the great beach with a lifeguard. Pools and tiki hut were convenient. Condo is on the same floor as the workout room. Would recommend highly to any group looking for a place to stay.

Fantastic Condo

We had the best time in Myrtle Beach and this condo was great! Six adults and four kids stayed here. There was plenty of room and having three bathrooms was so nice! The gym, lazy river, indoor/outdoor pools and easy access to the beach were amazing. The location was great too! I would highly recommend staying here. Michael was very communicative and helpful too!

BEST STAY YETOur family of 7 has been coming to The Mar Vista Grande Resort for over five years, and this was by far our best experience yet. The condo was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and felt like a true home away from home. Michael, the owner, made everything so simple—from booking to check-out—and went above and beyond by providing local tips for restaurants and attractions that made our trip even more special. You can really tell he cares about his guests’ experience. We’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend!

A wonderful getaway!

My friends and I stayed in this condo for the weekend, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The four bedrooms provided more than enough space to accommodate our group of seven. Having three bathrooms was also great! The decor in this condo is so beautiful. The location is wonderful also! It’s right on the beach, and just minutes away from great restaurants and attractions. The host was awesome at sending information about the condo and was great to communicate with before and during our trip. My friends and I highly recommend this condo for a relaxing, fun getaway or vacation!

We just left today after a 4 night stay at this wonderful condo. 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms was nice to have with 6 adults and 3 kids. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. Communication with Michael was top tier! Answered all my questions and responded quickly. The view was amazing from the patio. The short walk to the ocean/beach was the perfect distance. Rental of beach chairs and umbrella was right off the small bridge. We also enjoyed the private pools and hot tubs. Would definitely recommend and we can’t wait to vacation there again. Everyone was so nice at Mar Vista!

Great Ocean Views and a Perfect Stay: A Week we'll never forget.

We just wrapped up an incredible 7-day stay at the very well decorated 4-bedroom condo at 501 Mar Vista Grande, and it truly exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we walked in, the condo felt like a home away from home. The beautiful, spacious condo was perfect for our multi-generational family trip, providing ample room for our daughters, husbands, and grandchildren to relax and enjoy 7 days together. The stunning ocean views from the condo added a special touch to our stay, and the cleanliness of the unit was impeccable. We appreciated the well-maintained amenities of the facility, which included everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The short walk to the OD Pavilion was a huge plus, offering easy access to the beach and local attractions. Overall, our week at 501 Mar Vista Grande was fantastic. Michael (The Owner) was easy to communicate with and contact if needed from booking through our stay. The combination of a beautiful condo, great location, and excellent amenities made it a memorable family vacation, we'll never forget. We can't wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Sherard

Host profile image
Michael and Nancy Sherard’s path to owning 501 Mar Vista Grande is a sweet story of love, nostalgia, and shared dreams. Living in Greenwood, South Carolina, this newlywed couple shares a deep connection to Myrtle Beach, where both spent childhood vacations with their families. After years of separate experiences, they decided it was time to create a special place together by the ocean. Their search for the perfect coastal retreat took them from St. Simons Island, Georgia, up to the coast of North Carolina. They ultimately discovered their dream spot in North Myrtle Beach, a peaceful alternative to the busier Myrtle Beach, famous for its Shag dancing culture. In January 2022, they purchased unit 501 at Mar Vista, making their dream of a home that was truly theirs come true. Michael, a part-time real estate broker, and Nancy, a retired school principal with a talent for decorating, poured their hearts into transforming the space. With Nancy’s stylish touch, the unit now features fresh, modern furnishings, new beds and mattresses, and top-notch tech like a 65” picture frame smart TV in the great room and smart TVs in every bedroom. One of their favorite features is the large deck, offering breathtaking ocean and city views—perfect for gatherings or simply enjoying a glass of wine at sunset. Outfitted with cozy seating, it’s an inviting space to relax and connect. From the modern fitness center on their floor to the thoughtful details throughout, their dedication to making 501 Mar Vista Grande a welcoming haven shines through. They hope others will enjoy it as much as they do and create lasting memories in the charm and calm of North Myrtle Beach.

Why they chose this property

Our condo at 501 Mar Vista Grande in North Myrtle Beach is just minutes from top golf courses, fantastic restaurants, and all kinds of shopping. If you love mini golf, there are plenty of Putt-Putt courses nearby. Costco and Sam’s Club are about a 20-minute drive away in Myrtle Beach. We’re also within walking distance of Main Street in the Ocean Drive area, home to great dining, unique shops, and Fat Harold’s Beach Club, where shag dancing happens every night. The on-site amenities—indoor and outdoor pools, lazy river, hot tubs, kiddie pools, and fitness facilities—are unbeatable and a big part of why we chose North Myrtle Beach for our vacation home.

What makes this property unique

We, Michael and Nancy, are thrilled to share what makes our rental at 501 Mar Vista Grande in North Myrtle Beach so special. Our spacious condo features 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, offering more room than the usual 3-bedroom, 2-bath units—perfect for larger families or groups seeking comfort and privacy. The extra-large covered deck provides stunning views of both the ocean and city, creating a relaxing spot for morning coffee, evening drinks, or enjoying the coastal breeze. Convenient 4th-floor parking means quick access to the unit via stairs, avoiding long elevator waits during busy times. We’ve put a lot of thought and care into making the condo comfortable and well-equipped, reflecting our commitment to an exceptional guest experience. With Nancy’s past ownership of a condo in Hilton Head and Michael’s experience with a home in Edisto Beach, we understand what makes a vacation property truly enjoyable. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we’re always happy to answer any questions before or during your stay.
