Great location

The beach house is in an excellent location. It is very close to the beach with the access point being almost directly across the street. The house had a great setup and my whole family felt comfortable during our stay. Most of us felt the beds were very comfortable. One person in our party of 10 thought they were too soft. The outdoor amenities were some of the best I’ve seen. We loved the pool, hot tub, outdoor television, outdoor shower, putting green and basketball hoop. I thought there was some room for improvement when it came to cleanliness. The floors especially seemed like they could have been cleaner. Unfortunately I felt like I spent a lot of time at the beginning of the week reaching out about a variety of issues we were having with the rental. When we arrived the hot water was not working in half the bedrooms, both keurigs weren’t working and the peloton that was advertised didn’t have the cords to allow it to work. They did fix the hot water on Sunday but it sounded like it was a temporary fix that would need a permanent solution. The keurigs were eventually replaced. The issue with the peloton was never rectified. Several of us noticed bugs in the house and at least 3 palmetto bugs were found inside. Not the end of the world but I’ve been staying in Myrtle beach for several years and this was the first time I’ve seen a palmetto bug inside. Overall we had a nice time and give this house high marks for the location and outdoor amenities.

Truly is as good as it gets

Beautiful home. Great location. Wonderful amenities. Had a great family vacation with 10 adults and 8 children. We’re a sports family and besides the beach and pool, we had great fun with 3 generations playing pickleball, ping pong, and mini golf.

Best Vacation Rental Ever!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental is truly full of goodness - beautiful decor, bathrooms in every room, comfy beds, amazing views, and a great, funtional layout. We were grateful for the option to have the pool heated and truly enjoyed every activity this house had to offer! We played a lot of basketball but also pickle ball (the Bask Away team was amazing to set up a net for us). We loved being close to the beach and were amazed by how big it was. We loved everything about our stay and hope to come back again!

Went on a golf trip with 12 friends, needed a house large enough to accommodate the group. This home was spectacular and we are already on the list to rebook for next year.

Most Memorable Beach House

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This beach house had so many amenities there's really nothing you would need to bring except your family. All 23 of us had more than enough room and it was be enough to carry on conversations and have friends and family engage in activities all throughout the house. The location was super convenient and close to local eateries and the grocery store. We found it super easy to walk across the street to get to the beach. The only thing I would suggest improving is the washer/dryer. The size of the house should call for a top loading set instead of front loading. Easier to get cleaned. We would definitely return because of this house.

A Week That Was Truly AS GOOD AS IT GETS

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family just completed a wonderful vacation at As Good As It Gets. The name says it all with numerous amenities we were able to take full advantage of. A short walk to the beach with beautiful views from the top of the ocean as well as the inlet marsh. This location was amazing and delivered a week of special memories for all it had to offer. We played pickleball, ping pong, enjoyed S'mores out by the pool and relaxed in the pool with the calming sound of the waterfall from the attached hot tub.

HEAVEN IN MYRTLE BEACH

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is Beyond "As Good As It Gets". The BASK team are TOP NOTCH!! Our family of 24 had never ending enjoyment everyday during our stay. Between playing basketball, volleyball, shuffleboard, corn hole, putt putt gulf, indoor games, pool table, ping pong table, and best of all walking across the road we had our own public beach access to the sandy beach and ocean. Everyday our family gathered at the swimming pool and hot tub for a friendly squirt gun fight . Maintenance staff was beyond helpful and prompt. We even had a chance to meet the owner of the house. Was an "honor" to meet the person that made our family vacation destination one that we will NEVER forget. A bonus was all the extra's in the kitchen. XXL refrigerator, two ice makers, extra dishes, electric griddle, two dishwashers, and don't forget the crockpot. (You can tell I'm the cook) We rented two six passengers golf carts that we could ride on the road for miles. We watched the amazing sunrise and sunsets from the porch while sitting in the rocking chairs. This place is "Heaven". I don't think you can find another home in Myrtle Beach that your family will enjoy more than this one. I'm sure we will return in the near future.

It really is….

As good as it gets is an accurate name for this property! Indoor and outdoor amenities were well planned, and just a few hundred yards from the beach. Location is quiet but close enough to the pier for kids to escape. Highly recommend! Tim
