Rising Tides Beach Bar

We always have the best time here. The bartenders are always fun to be around, and the other guests have always had great attitudes. Drinks are the most affordable around here. I absolutely love this bar.

Thanks for the 3 star experience. Average bar at a great location. The burgers were good, until you sold out of them for 5 days in a row. See you next year or maybe not.

Edit: In the time it takes to respond to this review, you could drive to food Lion and grab some more hamburger patties.

Condo was ok, furniture was clean so that's a plus. Cleaning staff put tape on toilet saying it was sanitized, but had some hair on it, both toilets. Nice view and location. Building looks very old. If you want to rent a condo here, I suggest you do it through VRBO. I reserved through the management company directly because this was very last minute, and nothing was left available elsewhere. On that note, not sure if it's the management or individual owners decisions, but I've never heard of a resort where they leave you only two extra rolls of toilet paper, and then you have to go buy your own (which I was not told until I got there, and I reserved over the phone). Also, no hand soap in the bathrooms, not even dish soap. Had to go shopping in order to go to the bathroom! Go to the pool and was told there are no pool towels. Seriously?? A resort? So not only did I have to go shopping, but had to do laundry on my short vacation of 4 days! Management on site those days were very unfriendly. Also on the website, they claim to have a cafe. Well there is none! You want coffee, have to go out and get it, or again buy your own stuff. Also, too many kids in the hot tub.

The place was not clean. When we got there walking on the floors barefoot would leave you with black soles on your feet. There was still lots of sand on the floors. There was a pair of eye contacts and some other trash on the floor in middle guest room. None of the beds had been swept under or the nightstands. The dishwasher had mold in it and had not been emptied. We had to hand wash all our dishes, no way were we going to use a moldy dishwasher. The refrigerator and microwave both had food remains in them. The outside balcony furniture was filthy too with sand piled up in the corners of the balcony. The resort sent a guy to come check it out. He tried to clean stuff up but nothing he could do about the dishwasher. Even after he swept and mopped, our feet were still black on the bottom if we walked around barefoot. The next day my kids were coming with the baby, so my husband and I spent several hours cleaning. When I used the mop, I rinsed it out 3x in the bathtub when working with an area about 2ftx4ft, and it was STILL dirty. I was pretty upset. I didn’t pay that much to stay in a place so dirty. Fortunately after lots of wasted vacation time and waste of money, it was clean enough to be minimally acceptable. One of the doors to the balcony would not shut completely and could not be locked. On Saturday when it was time to leave, we were getting ready to check out but after waiting more than 10 minutes for an elevator (only one was working and the working one still had not come) to take our stuff to the car, we ended up driving our cars as far up the parking garage as we could, then carrying everything down the stairs to our cars. You can imagine we all needed another shower by the time we had the cars loaded and we were past our check out time.

The 3 bedroom condo we rented was clean and nicely decorated, it was great seeing that the pool, deck, and hot tub repairs after hurricane Ian were completed, We noticed that the company that puts out beach chairs and umbrellas for rent was moving private chairs and umbrellas so theirs could take priority on the beach in front of the entire condo complex. They groomed the beach several times which made it nice.

So disappointed in the lack of pool anddeck area during our .stay. Loved our Vrbo 15th floor 3BR 2 1/2 bath .Immaculate 7nit. Every detail taken care of by owner. Area lovely we ate at Murrels Inlet alot. Alot ofbreakfast places nearby too Surside. Do not use Walmart pick up. Process late by over 28 hours. Our order was never available till sun Local Food Lion a bit more $$ but shelves were stocked and not as busy. Beach perfect not too crowded

My husband and I booked our stay through Rising Tides Realty (owner Lynne Oliver). It was a last minute trip. Lynne informed us immediately that the "Amenities" (ie, pool, weight room, etc.) were not available due to damage done when "Ian" came through. We booked Unit #505. Check in was quick and seamless. The unit has recently been re-done and was spotlessly clean. The king size bed was very comfortable (and mattress was new). Kitchen is nicely appointed. Full-size washer/dryer. Patio furniture was sturdy and also very comfortable. The Wi-Fi was excellent. Rising Tides Bar (same owner as Rising Tides Realty) IS open on the lower level, which was very convenient. The location is great as far as going one way up to Surfside, or the other to Murrell's Inlet for restaurants (and of course, Garden City as well).

We just returned from a week at Waters Edge. It was a very relaxing stay. We were on the 10th floor, the view was phenomenal! It was awesome to watch thunder storms, nightly fireworks ( by other guests), and see pelicans go flying by! Raised Adirondack chairs provided unobstructed views over the railing. The unit itself was completely renovated recently. It was clean, well decorated and well stocked with everything you need to cook. The only downside was the king bed. The mattress needs to be flipped or replaced. After a couple of nights our backs were really feeling it! The beach was excellent. Never overcrowded. People were very friendly. Because we flew in we didn’t have beach gear, but you can rent 2 chairs and an umbrella daily. It’s all set up for you. We rented for the week, so you get a sliding scale discount instead of the flat $40 per day. It doesn’t matter how late you get to the beach, your gear is there all set up waiting for you. We didn’t really use the pool, but it looked okay, usually busy. Used the hot tub a couple of times and that was nice. We would be happy to stay here again.

Was a five till they said they don't take change. Not worth the trip to the room to grab an extra dollar. Prolly won't be back.

Friendly atmosphere

Love this place. ?

We stayed from 6/18-6/21 in Unit 804. The accommodations were spectacular and especially appreciated the the high Adirondaks stools on the balcony. The beach and pool were a summer's dream. I accidently left a sentimentally precious necklace in the bedroom and did not realize it until a couple of days later. Housekeeping turned it in and John at the front desk made sure to get it to mail service that could get it back to me. I am forever grateful!

Great staff!!

We have been coming up here for a few years and have to say this place is run down poor management always construction going on elevators are constantly down pools and spa are always broke . The AC AND HEAT DO NOT WORK they have been not working for a few weeks and is against the law they have multiple violations when it's cold they ask you to use your oven yes OVEN TO HEAT THE PLACE and haven't done anything to fix the heat and AC . Very hot in rooms can't open doors because of construction going on to let any air in .. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AND THE MANAGER IS VERY RUDE

great small pub for gatherings, had a great time for the Super Bowl
