We had a wonderful family vacation at the beach bungalow! Condo was convenient to everything, beach, restaurants and live music. You cannot beat the sunsets over the marsh at night. We have stayed in the Pawleys, Garden City area a number of times and will definitely be returning to the beach bird bungalow! Owners were very nice and accommodating.

Our March stay at the Guest Nest was exactly what our little family needed! The Nest was clean, convenient, and much more affordable than staying in a hotel (with all the comforts of home included!). We will definitely book another trip when it warms up & we can use the pool!

We LOVED our over a month long stay at the Beach Bird Bungalow. It is decorated so cute with the bird them throughout and you can tell the owners really care about their guests to make sure the condo is stocked with everything you would need during your stay. The comfortable beds, stocked kitchen and washer/dryer in unit were all wonderful to have. Our favorite space in the condo is the open concept kitchen/living area that extends to the screened in porch. I love a marsh view more that the ocean….so I never got tiered of the amber grains and beautiful pink sunsets! Bird watching was a favorite past time as well as we sipped our morning coffee. The location is awesome to get directly to the beach and a great “starting point” for exploring the whole Myrtle Beach area. The Causeway Grill was one of our favorite spots for take out and its walking distance. We already booked another stay for Spring 2022 and plan to make this our home away from home while visiting family.

Nice and cozy. A quick walk to the beach and beautiful views of the marsh. The kitchen was well-equipped. We cooked fresh fish most nights. Beds were very comfortable. We were there during the 4th of July and were able to take in the fireworks around the whole area from our balcony. All-in-all highly recommended. We’ll be back!

We really enjoyed our recent stay. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked our own seafood two nights in a row. The decor was very beach inspired and comfortable. Pretty much all the amenities you need. You must see the view for yourself. Great balcony with amazing sunsets, view of the marsh and beautiful birds. There was a pool and hot tub outdoors. We were a very short distance walk to some restaurants and the pier. Other restaurants/entertainment/stores were a short car ride away. This was a special place to spend our anniversary. I highly recommend a visit!

Covid changed our original plans and we found this cute little place at the beach while we were looking for something at Lake Lure. To our surprise it was open at the perfect time and we snatched it up! So glad we did! Clean, within walking distance to groceries and local restaurants and so close to the beach. The condo had everything you needed for a perfect stay. The kitchen had everything you could think of. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. The view of the marsh and screed porch is very relaxing. Try it – you’ll be glad you did.

There’s nothing like a vacation rental that makes you feel welcome and right at home. From the moment you step through the threshold, you’re greeted by a brightness. Beautiful bird-inspired art and beach colors from wall to wall. The owners really put their hearts and creative souls to work in everything from the bedding and bathroom amenities to the kitchen and living room decor. It feels like a home away from home — but with the coolest little marsh-facing patio that is perfect for sitting and reading, conversation over wine, or a little birdwatching. And you also get these sweet little add-ons: a full set of kitchenware, bathroom and laundry utilities, and accessories, board games, books, TVs in every room — even a pair of binoculars! (You know, to watch the birds… or maybe the people, no judgement.)

We didn’t want to leave. It was a peaceful retreat extremely close to the beach and good food. At times, we had the beach to ourselves. The Garden City Pier is a block away with excellent views of the area. The walkability score has to be a 10/10. During the week, it is a peaceful retreat.

Altogether, it was a superb, convenient, and worry-free stay. Highly recommended!

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 ~

What a beautiful place! A great, quiet getaway with a pretty view of the marsh and also super close to the beach and pier. Everything was super clean and perfect for the 4 of us. We also loved how friendly the other residents were! Thank you Beach Bird Bungalow!

With our 6 weeks winding down, Pelican Paradise has surly lived up to its name, PARADISE. The owners are extremely pleasant and very responsive to any needs you may have. Everything you needed was at your fingertips. Balcony was great sit on and watch the ocean – very calming and relaxing. The only thing I was hoping for was WARMER WEATHER 😪. I would highly suggest you reach out these owners.

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.

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.

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!

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.
