The condo is nice. The kitchen could use an update. Our big issue was no instructions on how to operate the TV. Every time we tried, things seemed to work differently. I'm sure it was a good service but we couldn't figure it out. So we wound up watching whatever we could access at the time. Also there were only 3 plastic chairs and a table on the balcony. The condo could sleep 8 so a few more chairs or loungers would be appreciated. The access to the gates to the pool and the beach only being available on your phone was very annoying. Some guests had swipe cards that were much more convenient. The master bed was very comfortable and the bathrooms werevery nice.

Needs a kitchen update test if condo beautiful

We had a fantastic stay at the condo. It was clean, and everything was in good working order. Having stayed in multiple condos at OOP since 1995, we can say that 602 did not disappoint.
Our only issue was needing to carry our phone around to use the app for unlocking gates, as the code provided to us did not work. However, the enhanced security measures ensuring that only owners and renters are on the property were a welcome change. In the past, returning from dinner to find no available parking spots was a common issue. The additional security has eliminated this problem, making our stay even more relaxing.

They need nice patio chairs. Only had 3 cheap plastic chairs and one plastic table on patio.

Overall great vacation. Condo was clean and comfortable. Owner stopped by for some measurements to do further upgrades on secondary bedroom and kitchen. Kitchen is definitely ready for an update but it was functional and well equipped so no complaints from us. The view of the ocean trumps anything negative you could find. Breathtaking views! Parking and access to beach were a little complicated but it’s probably the best they could do with tight space. One hot tub was under construction while we were there but we never use it anyway so that didn’t put us out at all.

Wonderful accommodations with magnificent views. Staff on site are friendly and helpful as - of course at Garden City Realty who responded quickly to to question we had. The environmental services staff are thorough and made check in quick and easy.
Never a question on where to stay and with whom to make reservations.

We stayed at One Ocean Place room 602. The room was beautiful. It was so clean. And the view was perfect. Can’t wait to stay again next year. Was a week of fun & relaxation. Thank you Garden City Realty for being the best to book with.

This is our 4th year staying at One Ocean Place and the 3rd condo we've stayed in. Each condo has always been very nice. Our family looks forward to our stay every year!

Family vacation for week of July 4th. Been coming to Garden City Beach for last 49 years. Great area.
- Carl H. from Myrtle Beach, Posted: 07/13/2021
Our experience with Garden City Realty was a very nice one. Robin was very helpful on the phone when we called to rent the condo. The check-in process went very smoothly. At check-out no one was at the office at 8:30 and we felt a little uncomfortable leaving the keys in the key drop. We are seniors and like to do things face to face.
The property was very nice. We liked that it was gated. The updated bathrooms were excellent. I was able to take my bath chair and use it with the handheld shower head. This was so helpful since I am waiting for hip replacement.
On that line, the elevators were handy to parking and we never had to wait much at all. The pool was very accessible as well as the beach.
The kitchen needs to be updated but we didn't do much cooking anyway. It was clean and it looked like most anything you would need was there.
Overall, we were very pleased with our stay.
- Henry H. from Easley, Posted: 05/24/2021
It was great. I rented for three months and couldn’t have found a better place.

Still have a month of rental, but they stay has been really nice.
- Anonymous from Pine City, Posted: 03/03/2021
We stayed at this same condo last year and mentioned some things in the review which were not changed. Plus the review was not published. The condo was very clean and mostly well maintained. The washer & dryer are now new. However, the blinds on the main windows still don't work right, the shower curtain in the master bath still needs to be replaced, the glass shelf in the second bath is in a dangerous location and there is still no cover on the living room AC receptacle. Also, the hot water tank is not adequate to fill the master bath tub to the height for the jets to work. Finally, there could be better patio furniture and a baking pan for pizza in the kitchen. Overall, the condo was OK but, the parking garage design is horrible and there is only one beach access for the entire building, which is very inconvenient at busy times.
- Murray S. from Timonium, Posted: 11/03/2020
Great vacation rental. Enjoyed the condo. Only suggestion is that the kitchen appliances could use an up date (stove mainly). Thank you
- Vestina C. from Speedwell, Posted: 10/12/2020
The unit was nice. Some of it has been updated.
- Anonymous from Alpharetta, Posted: 07/25/2020
We had a great stay even through a pandemic. The complex wasn't busy at all. One problem was that the stove took 30 minutes to boil a small pot of water and the oven took 40 minutes to preheat to 375. With what looks like a newer microwave, I wish they would have also replaced the stove. It still worked so I didn't complain. People just need to know that if planning to cook a meal. Also, we had 4 guests and there are only 3 balcony chairs. We had to pull a beach chair outside. No big complaints. The condo was clean and ready when we arrived. We would stay again but avoid cooking and bring a larger camping chair for the balcony next time.
- Molly B. from Walland, Posted: 06/15/2020
We were very pleased with the condo - unit 602. It was decorated well, clean, alot of upgrades. The only suggestion is that the balcony on the furniture could be updated. Only 3 chairs provided and a table that were white plastic. We noticed other units that had very nice furniture on their balconies.
- Beth V. from Angus, Posted: 10/01/2019
We love Garden City in Sept but unfortunately we had to evacuate after one night. Travel insurance is a must. One Ocean Place is a great place to stay on the beach with easy access & fabulous oceanfront views.
- Linda H. from Forest City, Posted: 09/12/2019
We had a great time. Location was great. I wasn't real pleased with the parking. It was very tight and full. Each unit should have at least one designated parking space. When each unit has multiple parking passes, it isn't fair to others that pay to stay there and have no place to park. The parking passes over the first one per unit, should be the one that needs to park elsewhere, ie street. The Condo unit was clean and spacious. I did report to Garden City Realty that the window blinds would not open in the master bedroom or living room. They seemed to be broken. And the shower curtain in the master bath did not work properly either. The master bath also has a garden tub which is hard to get in and out of to shower and the shower facet is in the middle of the wall and very hard to reach over the tub to turn on. The water could also be turned up a little for hotter water. These are all minor issues. We had a great time all and all.

One Ocean Place 602 is a wonderful place to stay if you enjoy the ocean and a very clean place. The management staff that greeted us when we checked in was one of the best I have every met.
- Jim M. from Newnan, Posted: 09/30/2018
This is a nice condo, and will be really nice once the master bath and kitchen have been remodeled to match the updated guest bath. The only issue we had was the main sliding glass door to the balcony sticks, and is nearly impossible to open from the balcony side unless you leave the door a bit open. Other than that, we had a great stay.
- Justin J. from Parkersburg, Posted: 09/10/2018
The owners of this vacation home have renovated family room, dining area, both bedrooms and 1 bath, plus all new floors and doors. They still have the ancient kitchen filled with worn out and ill matched pots, pans, dishes and silverware. The porch furniture and cushions are tired and master bath needs an update. I believe when that is done it will be beautiful, but not yet.
- Jean H. from Gaithersburg, Posted: 08/27/2018
We had a great vacation. The condo was nice and clean. Ocean Front and had a nice pool. We are going to stay again next summer.
- Melissa D. from Gastonia, Posted: 08/01/2018
Large portion has been remolded. Vanity in master needs replacing and kitchen cabinet under sink. We enjoyed this condo and found it very pleasant. Would rent it again. Furniture was newly replaced.
- Kenneth M. from Jenkins, Posted: 07/23/2018
Great oceanfront location with a scenic view from the extra large balcony on the sixth floor. All of the indoor seating was comfortable and so were the beds. The balcony chairs were not comfortable. There was plenty of closet and drawer space . The kitchen was small and fairly well equipped but could use some updating. The master bath could also use some updating but was functional. The other bathroom was updated. I thought both baths needed a grab bar in the shower. Rental company was GREAT. Would rent again.

This was my third year staying at One Ocean Place, and as always it was excellent. My Condo was clean, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Condo 602 at One Ocean Place was a very nice and clean condo. The staff at Garden City Realty were very professional and very helpful. Would highly recommend Garden City Realty and One Ocean Place.
- Holly H. from Knoxville, Posted: 06/18/2018
We had a very nice week at the beach. The guest bath is beautiful! New flooring very nice. Can't wait to see what the owners will do next.
- Denise R. from Wheeling, Posted: 05/28/2018
Everything perfect from check in to checkout. Decor was very tasteful. Wouldn't change a thing. Really liked your process of dealing with linens, much easier than your competition.
- Anonymous from Burton, Posted: 09/30/2017
We liked the 6th floor location-high enough that noise from the pool area was no problem. Views were great with all the floor to ceiling windows. The elevators in the tower were quick-no long waits! The unit could benefit from a refrigerator with an ice maker. The landline telephone in the unit did not work.
- Ken K. from Knoxville, Posted: 09/05/2017
We really enjoy coming here. Family friendly environment, and a nice pool for the kids.
- Melissa D. from Gastonia, Posted: 08/02/2017
It was awesome! The room was exactly as described on the rental site. It was very clean, and the living room furniture was comfortable. The oceanfront deck was roomy, and we spent many hours there. We also loved having an oceanfront bedroom. Listening to the ocean waves at night was very soothing. The only complaint we have is with the king mattress. It was firm, but not that comfortable. It wasn't unbearable, and we have had much worse. We would definitely stay there again.
- Anonymous from Morristown, Posted: 06/06/2017

We stayed at One Ocean Place #602. Ocean front...you can't get a better view- it was amazing. The condo itself was beautiful. It's obvious that the owner takes great pride. May be time to get a new comforter for the master bedroom, it was quite worn but other than that, no complaints! The building itself was in really great shape, plenty of parking and just an all around great place to stay!

what a great upgrade in OOP602 since our last stay! new flooring, furniture window blinds, tv's; Met new owner who takes pride in having a pleasant "home away from home" Altho we had to evacuate after the hurricane we returned to a safe, comfortable condo and enjoyed the rest of the month Look forward to staying again in 2017
- Marie E. from Willow Street, Posted: 11/10/2016
Excellent place to enjoy a relaxing and rejuvenating beach experience. Do it for yourself - you will be so glad you did !! Wake up and see the beautiful sun rise from your ocean balcony - nothing more relaxing !
- Ronald M. from Bristol, Posted: 09/26/2016
My family of four stayed here as a vacation/move in to Coastal Carolina housing. This was our second time in Garden City area and I like that it is a bit quieter than Myrtle or North Myrtle, which is ideal for relaxing. The unit itself was comfortable enough. It was clean when we arrived. We watched dolphins every morning from the balcony. My only complaint would be the dated kitchen and bathroom cabinets. The location however made up for that.
- Susan G. from WARWICK, Posted: 08/22/2016
We have stayed in 5 or 6 different units over the last 30 years and have not been disappointed, ever!

2nd time staying at One Ocean Place. Both experiences were great, we like the quiet location. Staff very friendly, easy check in and out.
- Michael M. from Akron, Posted: 08/19/2015
Great condo, great views. Building and pools/hot tubs were well maintained. The specific unit we stayed in has had some updates but at a minimum the countertops are going to need some attention. The unit was a great size and perfect for our family. Overall the unit was clean but the carpets are dirty and stained and need cleaned.

Dealing with people is the major requirement of my job. Our stay at One Ocean Place provided quiet, great view and very comfortable accommodations. The sound of the ocean was relaxing and helped erase the clutter that can accumulate in our minds throughout the year. We would not hesitate to return to One Ocean Place.
- Don F. from Erie, Posted: 05/27/2015
the other reviews of this condo were correct in that it has not been updated, but who cares? the price was great & it was clean & in a great quiet location. Plus it is right next door to the Conch Restaurant. We would stay here again.

We are coming back next year and then retire there in a few years.

- Shawn S. from Louisville, Posted: 05/13/2014
I was very pleased with my stay. The condo was beautiful and had everything I could possibly need for a comfortable stay. I loved walking out onto the balcony and being right on the ocean and walking right out onto the beach. The rental process was quick and efficient. I loved the location too, it was centrally located and just a short ride to shopping and restaurants. I could easily walk to the piers at Surfside or Garden City. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would certainly recommend this rental. I had all the comforts of home at the beach!!
- Leslie L. from Statesville, Posted: 10/22/2013
Have stayed at One Ocean Place for 20 out of the last 22 years. Very happy staying there! This unit needs some TLC but overall still happy with are stay.
- Dick or Kris M. from Auburn, Posted: 09/30/2013
Love the Garden City area for family vacation. Great condo. Awesome ocean views! Condo was spotless and beautifully decorated. Well-equipped kitchen. I agree with previous review that a hand grip is needed for the Jacuzzi tub. Definitely plan to return and stay in same condo.
- Jane W. from Willisburg, Posted: 09/09/2013
Very good
- Anonymous from Halethorpe, Posted: 08/25/2013
The location is fantastic. Right on the beach, two pools, clean unit. My only comment is that the realty company needs to provide more toilet paper and garbage bags. Only 2 rolls of toilet paper for a family of 4 for a week is not going to cut it. Also, only 1 trash bag per trash can, needed a few more but luckily we had a lot of plastic grocery sacks and made do.
- Anonymous from Pantego, Posted: 08/20/2013
We spent a lot of time on the balcony overlooking the ocean. We could watch the sun come up over the water from our window. The condo is a little dated but the view and amenities more than make up for an old coffee pot!! We had a great time!!
- Amy H. from Rutherfordton, Posted: 08/13/2013
We have stayed in this condo for the second year in a row and we will plan on going back again next year.
- Phil S. from Greer, Posted: 07/10/2013
602 One Ocean Place was a great place to stay! The view is amazing!!! We had a great time and hope to return. Condo was clean (maybe a little dated) but we spent all our time outside or on the patio. The staff at One Ocean Place was great. They were very friendly and very helpful. Only complaint I have is there is very little parking for high top vehicles. We had a topper on our mini van and were unable to park in the parking garage. There are a few reserved spots for high top vehicles but many times we would return to the condo and have no where to park because vehicles that could fit in the parking garage choose to park in the high top vehicle parking, making this an inconvenience for us.

Great location, quiet and very clean. Everything you need, including items for the beach is in the condo. Very pleasant vacation experience.

The bed in the master was not a queen as described. It was two singles pushed together.

The view from the 6th floor was spectacular. Rooms were adequately furnished. Garden City Management was very responsive. Needed more attention to the stove, silverware and carpets. A great 7 day holiday.
- John A C. from Cherry Hill, Posted: 09/27/2012
The best part of this unit is the location and view! The condo is a bit dated, but was very clean. Garden City Realty responded very quickly to our one small issue. I would stay here again.
- Denise R. from Wheeling, Posted: 08/06/2012
We enjoyed our stay. We did a toilet that leaked and then continued to make loud noises trying to fill the tank even after it was fixed but when I called it was addressed quickly and the people were very polite and helpful.

Great price for an off season vacation. Great balcony and great views. Living room furniture needs updating. Not enough hot water to fill jacuzzi tub.
- Heyward & Vivian C. from Inman, Posted: 12/05/2011
This was our first condo stay after 30+ years of camping.The view was great, and the sound of the ocean was very relaxing.Our only complaint was that the living room furniture is in very much need to be replaced,as there was no comfortable place to sit. All appliances worked fine, even the beds were comfortable. We hope to stay again in 2012
- Marie E. from Willow Street, Posted: 11/03/2011
My family and I have been coming to the South Cariolina Beaches for many years, and One Ocean Place is one of our Favorites in the Garden City area. The rooms are large with plenty of room for our growing family. It's very family freindly, safe, convenient to just about anything and everything. We look forward to returning each year and staying at One Ocean Place.
