• Perfect

  5/5

  Perfect place. Been going to sanabel the last few years and will always try to go there every year. Great location and all the units I’ve stayed in are great. There’s nothing special about them and I love that. Very simple and homelike. With perfect views. Our families favorite place to stay. The rooms are 2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms. Full kitchen. Everything you may need is there. Wonderful stay as always.

• San-A-Bel Unit 710

  5/5

  Great location, pool and hot tub area clean and well maintained. Instructions did not include how to lock the door from the outside-unlocking instructions were clear-and we had to call the property manager. The lock appears bent and should probably be replaced. The property manager called back quickly and we were able to get the door locked per his instructions.

• Decent Place

  3/5

  There needs to be some updating, but nice. We were probably inside more than normal due to weather. However that isn't property owners fault. One bath is remodeled nicely, the other needs to be done. Beds are decent. Bed rooms are small, but serve the purpose. One bed room, the remote worked only the cable box and not the TV. No way to use apps on TV (such as Netflix). Kitchen was nice and has been updated. Parking was wonderful. My only real issue with property, when we arrived Friday evening, it was raining hard, winds were really blowing and the condo was cold, due to AC being on. However, the guest cannot change the controller from AC to Heat. It is LOCKED. So had to make a phone call. Never heard back since it was after hours. The next morning the readout said heat. On Sunday, it warmed up and even the sun came out some, and condo was very warm. Tried to move it to AC and therefore, had to make another phone call. This time I did the emergency issue, and this time I got a phone call. Told them the issue and and in about ten minutes it was moved to AC and we could cool off the condo. My issue with this, the guest should not have to call anyone to move the controller from AC to HEAT or HEAT to AC. I fully understand if they wish to lock in some temp ranges, but this is guest decision on comfort. Not someone who is not living in the unit. When you go to a hotel, you get to set your room on what you want.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi William, we’re sorry to hear your stay did not meet your expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - Thank you for choosing to stay in our North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina condominium and leaving a review, as guest feedback is vitally important to us and the success of our vacation rental business.
  - We like to hear you were happy with the parking in our complex. Good parking is an important aspect when on vacation.
  - We use local, professional photographers so the listing photos correctly reflect the property. We do plan to upgrade the second bathroom in the near future.
  - We apologize that you were adversely affected by the Air conditioner/heating settings. The thermostat is controlled remotely but is one of the most highly rated related features.
  - The Air conditioning is partially locked to prevent overheating or cooling; however, the guests can adjust the temperature to a minimum for cooling (70F) and a maximum for heating (68F). Unfortunately, the partial lock feature does not allow to change the system from cooling to heating from the unit.
  - Within minutes of reaching our Guest Contact, they had your request to switch the system mode resolved.
  
  We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.

• Nice place right on the beach

  5/5

  We stayed for 4 nights and the condo was great. Easy parking for our Suburban with easy access to luggage carts and the elevator. The condo had plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 teenagers, with two bedrooms that each have a queen bed and a full bathroom.

  Air Conditioning worked great, and there was adequate hot water and pressure for showers. The balcony overlooks the beach and has plenty of room for relaxation.

  The condo association maintains an outdoor hot-tub and a small indoor pool, as well as a small grilling area. Beach access is right from the parking garage and has two boardwalks over the dunes with hoses to wash off the sand. A private company operates banana boats and parasailing right on the beach next to the building.

  There is a nice Irish pub right next door (try the Dirty Myrtle) and there is a mini-mart and an ice cream shop across the street. It's a short 10 minute drive to the popular Barefoot Landing shopping area.

  A few previous reviews stated they couldn't figure out how to lock the door from the outside. All you need to do is to hold down the big button for a few seconds until you hear the lock mechanism working. We thought it was super-convenient to go to the beach without having to carry a key... just need to remember the code!
