We absolutely loved everything about our stay! Perfect location, whole place was clean and inviting! We stayed an entire week and my daughter and 2 grandchildren came over daily, we was able to cook very good meals together and also used the grill outdoors which we found that whole area to be an unexpected gathering spot for us as it has 2 huge tables, a telivision, and 2 amazing rocking chairs, that we enjoyed! We will definitely stay here again!!

We loved it!
We absolutely loved this property. The neighborhood was friendly and it was short walk to the beach, pier, shops, and food. My girls loved the pool and the ability to swim whenever they wanted. The room was clean, cozy, and easily accessible. I was a bit apprehensive about the laundry room, but it was easy to get to and was clean as well.

Perfect For the Beach
Four of us stayed in this property. Although low square footage, it has everything you need to enjoy your beach vacation and we never felt like there wasn't enough room for all of us. Beach access is right across the street. Nice pool on the property. Within walking distance of beach stores, grocery store, and bars.

Lovely beach condo. Just as described.
My husband, daughter and myself enjoyed this beautifully decorated and super clean condo. The balcony was just as cute as the rest of the condo. Loved sitting and relaxing in the morning on the balcony. We had less than 5 minute walk to the beach. We were extremely happy with the condo and had a great time and would definitely stay here again. Thank you.

Garden City Gem
We have rented many vrbos over the years and this by far was the cleanest we have ever stayed in. The pictures are current and very accurate; completely remodeled and new. Charlene has really thought out the use of this condo, there were hooks to hang jackets inside the door, hooks to hang car keys as well. The location to beach access was very convenient right across the street. It was very easy to get on the beach. Generally the location is excellent, we found it convenient to get to all the businesses on17. It is a 1.6 mile walk to Surfside Beach restaurants and beach bar. After listing all the attributes of this rental, I would be remiss if I did not comment on Charlene. She truly wants you to have the perfect vacation. We had a question about the tv and she responded quickly and answered our questions. I would highy recommend this condo and hope to visit again soon!

The only suggestion to make better would be ditch the plastic mattress cover. It’s a nightmare. Everything else was perfect. We truly enjoyed our stay. It was quiet but so close to everything we wanted. Would definitely stay there again! Charlene is incredibly responsive, so fast and lovely.

Perfect Condo
This condo exceeded all expectations. The extremely short walk to the beach made everything convenient. The condo itself was new and was stocked with essentials I’ve had to buy myself at other rentals. Charlene was the ideal host and reached out to make check in so easy. Could not recommend this rental more.

Not what we're accustomed to.
Hate to be negative but this part of Garden City was awful. Beach was nice but street and sidewalks very crowded all hours. Constant fireworks from dark till midnight every night. "Sketchy "folks at the place. Dangerous drivers on the street. Just too loud and "busy" for us. It's a shame because the unit is awesome for a couple. Clean, clean clean.

About the host

Hosted by Charlene Helms

Host profile image
We have been vacationing in SSB/GCB for almost 20 years. We loved it so much we bought a small beach getaway for us to spend quality time with family and friends in 2008. We bought our first beach fixer-upper in 2021 to have a rental property to share with guests wanting a nice place to vacation and spend quality time with family/friends or just take some time to relax for themselves. SSB/GCB stole our hearts from the very first time we vacationed here. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We love it here. The property is small and so friendly. You feel like one of the family here. This property is owner managed and cleaned professionally by a 5 star cleaning company. The condo is on the first floor with only one set of steps to walk up. Patio has a wonderful pool view. Steps to the ocean and right across from the Cypress Beach Access. The Garden City Pier is 4 blocks South so also within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

This is a small condo complex and the neighbors make you feel like family. The condo has been completely updated and has a wonderful pool view from the living/kitchen area as well as the patio. We are right across the street from the beach and only 4 blocks North of the Garden City Pier. The condo is on the first floor for easy access. This condo is owner managed and cleaned professionally by a 5 star cleaning company.
