We really enjoyed our stay at the Guest Nest. The location was amazing. The host really supplied above & beyond to make us comfortable. We will book again!

Our family vacation at Pelican’s Paradise was exceptional. Everything we needed, and more, was provided in the condo. The location was perfect- close enough to everything without having to sit in crazy traffic just to get dinner!
I traveled with my older parents and the condo was accessible with just the one flight of stairs and a flat walk to the beach.
The bunk beds were a total hit with my little one and everyone had enough room to spread out and relax.
This is the perfect condo for multi-generational families, something that can be surprisingly difficult to find in this area.
We have never booked the same place twice, but we are definitely considering it this time- it was great!

Perfect space for 2-4 people. Clean. Well equipped with stove, full size fridge, coffee maker (reg and Keurig), and comfy bed AND couch. Conveniently located to dining, entertainment, and most importantly, a beach access. Super responsive and friendly host. What more could you ask for?

We loved our stay at the Salty Seagull! From the moment we walked in, we were in love with the decor. The rooms were incredibly spacious, giving everyone plenty of room to relax and unwind. One of our favorite things was the stunning view of the beach—we could have spent hours just sitting on the balcony. The owners were super easy to work with, very accommodating, and always replied quickly. It was the perfect getaway, and we can’t wait to come back next year!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Pelican’s Paradise, the porch was a big hit and very relaxing to sit outside. The condo was well decorated with plush bedding and all the kitchen items needed. Being steps away from the beach and able to walk to the pier to fish and hang out was wonderful. The parking takes a bit to get used to but everyone was very friendly so it worked out okay. I suggest bringing a sound machine for the front master bedroom to help out with any outside noise (we came on a holiday week so it was a bit loud a few nights but manageable). We look forward to visiting again ~

Our stay at guest nest was great! We enjoyed the location and it was a perfect get away space for a couple. We spent most of our time on the beach. The owners quickly accommodated us when the microwave quit working even though we didn’t necessarily need it.

Our stay at Guest Nest was great. The location is everything. A short walk to the beach and pier. The Nest was clean and way more affordable than staying in a hotel. The swimming pool was clean and a nice size. We love Garden City and will most definitely stay here again. If not at the Guest Nest we will definitely use another red bird rental. The owners are some of the most friendly and amazing people you will meet.
Thank you again for this wonderful stay!!

What a great week! Pelican’s Paradise had everything to make our stay enjoyable. We loved being right on the beach and listening to the waves from the balcony! We visited so many places that were just a short drive away. The Pier (walkable), Hiking at Huntington Beach State Park, Atalaya Castle, Brookgreen Gardens and Zoo, Mini Golf, Surfside Beach and shopping in Murrells Inlet. So many great restaurants to choose from. We definitely hope to come back and visit again.

Size and location of this condo is ideal!! Literally steps from the beach! Beautiful Condo, fully stocked! An umbrella and a few chairs were provided. Owner was very responsive and helpful. This will be on our list of places to stay for the future!

The condo was the perfect vacation spot for us and had everything we needed. The condo was beautifully decorated and very clean. We all loved it and agreed we would stay there again.

We had a great time! Everything was perfect. Being steps from the beach was a real plus as we didn’t need to make a long walk carrying items or even bring a lunch with us. The condo had everything we needed to have a wonderful week. Many thanks go out to the owners from all of us.

What a fantastic stay at Pelican’s Paradise, rented through Red Bird Vacation Rentals. This beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bath condo with ocean views exceeded expectations. The attention to detail was impressive—clean rooms, linens, leave-one-take-one book library, beach chairs, coffee makers, and Roku TVs in every bedroom. Thoughtful touches like extra hooks for clothes and towels and a charming pelican theme made it feel even more special. The owners clearly care about every aspect, ensuring comfort and convenience. Highly, highly recommend this perfect getaway spot! Can’t wait to return.

The Salty Seagull was sparkling clean and well-equipped. The adorable decor, comfortable beds, and perfect layout made it top-notch. We loved the pool and watching dolphins from the porch. Its fantastic location, close to the pier with nightly live music, was a highlight. Overflow parking and the elevator were great bonuses. The owners’ prompt communication ensured a perfect stay. Excellent value for money. We can’t wait to return!

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay at the Beach Bird Bungalow over the July 4th holiday! Great location and close to everything in Garden City. The condo had plenty of space and the view over there marsh was an added bonus! Thank you for sharing this beautiful place with us!

The owners are a very pleasant couple who are responsive to your every question. Their property is well-suited to a family with nearly everything you will need for an enjoyable beach experience. It is well-maintained and appointed. There are 40 or more Pelican images inside and out which are fun to find and count, which members of our family group counted several times and always seemed to come up with a different total. Quite likely we will visit this cozy, happy place again in the future. The one bothersome issue has to do with the poorly executed parking situation, a matter dictated by the HOA and not the unit owners. Don’t let that aspect deter you from enjoying this wonderful Pelican Paradise. You will love it there.

Beach Bird Bungalow was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway! Could have spent the whole weekend relaxing on the balcony! 20 out of 10 definitely recommend! Looking forward to next years stay!

We enjoyed our visit at The Beach Bird Bungalow. It is convenient to the pier for fishing and live music. The beach is beautiful with white sand and you can rent chairs and Umbrellas. The condo was very nice and location was great.
The Donks
We really had a wonderful time at Beach Bird Bungalow. The location is perfect for beach, restaurants and entertainment. We rented a go cart and it was nice to adventure out in Garden City and Surfside. The condo was very clean and had all the amenities you need. My boys enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We plan on checking out one or two of your other rentals.

Our stay at the Guest Nest was perfect. We wanted a quick weekend away at the beach and it was perfect. Plus, we wanted to stay in Red Bird Vacation Rentals new condo. All of their rentals are unique and we have enjoyed them all. This was in a nice location. You are so close to the beach, nice walk to the marsh, the little grocery store in Murrells Inlet had everything we needed and the owner was very friendly. As all of their properties are decorated nicely and have everything you need this was no exception. The swimming pool was very clean and was a nice size. There seemed to be plenty of parking, also.

I took my kids to your Beach Bird Bungalow in early June 2022. I’ve gotta say the condo was perfect for up our needs, it’s location is fantastic. The pool was perfect for us. We were able to travel to surrounding areas easily and there was lots to see. The beach access is convenient and so is the pier. We had two vegans in the group and there were lots of restaurants to choose from that made everyone happy. We look forward to enjoying this rental again in the future.
