Sweetwater Inn

We had a great stay at the Sweetwater Inn with family for spring break. The dogs enjoyed their morning walks on the beach, which was very close and easily accessible. The property had plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. We also enjoyed lounging by the pool during the day, and relaxing in the hot tub at night. The pool table added hours of entertainment for our crew. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for Easter dinner. Property management was there often, making sure our stay was going well and maintaining the pool and hot tub. We look forward to staying here again on our next trip to SC.

Great spot, 2nd time staying here, will be back. Chris & staff were easy and great to work with.

This is the 3rd year that we stayed at Sweetwater, it just wasn’t clean this time. I looked at my socks one day and I had blonde dog hair all over my socks, we don’t have a blonde dog. The shower liners had mold at the bottoms, sand everywhere. The Master Bed upstairs was broken or needed a new my. I did love the new decorations. We planned on booking next year, but the price doubled. This house needs updating and a good cleaning for $10,000.00 a week. The lawn wasn’t mowed all week and the pool was filthy when we arrived.

It was very well equipped, everything you needed for your stay.

Steps from beach and on short dead end street. Not much car traffic and less crowds on beach. Excellent pool and hot tub area, but with no decks on the back of the house, you pretty much had to be at the pool to see what was going on. Not much counter space in kitchen. We took a folding table to help with food prep. Plenty of cookware, but no baking pans or large platters. Didn't like the children's room being isolated on top floor next to kitchen and living area, but dealt with it okay. Some of the mattresses in bedrooms are well past time to be replaced. Good water pressure from faucets. All in all, this is a good rental with lots of space and plenty of parking.

The house is an incredible space for a large group. Very clean. Dishwasher was not working which was unfortunate for the Christmas holiday as there was a lot of cooking.
Management company was courteous with good communication. We were disappointed with our interactions with the owner. He arrived on Christmas day and began yelling at my daughter and granddaughter that it cost 500.00 a day to heat the pool and they should get out of it. After investigation, It seems it was a miscommunication between the property caretaker and the owner. There was no need to be so rude to my children on Christmas because of an error/communication failure on their part. It did put a damper on the holiday.

The house was clean when we arrived..everything was outstanding...plenty of room....enjoyed our stay

Thirteen of us, grandparents, parents and children, enjoyed our week here. Prior to our stay and during it, the staff was very responsive and helpful. The house was clean, the beds comfortable, and the large living area worked well for us. The pool was large enough for us but might be crowded with more people. You cannot communicate from the upper floors to the pool without going to the ground level. The houses in this area are close together and you could hear people from several nearby houses.

Even with the present new medical rules the staff and management were just super to make sure our stay was as good as it has been in all the years past. The house, pool,hot tub, and grounds were clean and fresh when we got there, the linens were there waiting, it was just great.

great but there were cockroaches -only a few , found in the home

As always, our vacation with Retreat Myrtle Beach was awesome. Sweetwater Inn is our favorite property. The layout of the house is great, as is the private saltwater pool. And bringing our dogs along is always the best part!!

Everything was great! The house was comfortable. Great location. Pool & hot tub were a blast! Disappointed that rental agency said my daughter could store some very nice pool floats in the locked utility closet for 2 weeks until our family came down to rent same house she and friends had just rented. Not only were all 7 floats gone, but rental agency offered no apology, nor appeared concerned in the least that they went missing. As well the whole staff basically badmouthed my daughter’s high school group who had been there 2 weeks before. Very unprofessional in my opinion to go on and on about customers who paid a lot of money to the company. So besides those negative encounters, the trip was a huge success. Just a few personal issues which will likely not ever effect anyone else.

We enjoy renting this home because it enables our whole family to be together. And our dogs are definitely part of that family.

Great job fixing the pool and hot tub which we enjoyed very much. Suggest adding Golf Channel to your TV package as we were here on a golf holiday and this channel not included. Strange !!!

We had a party of 11 and it was more than enough space...the 5yr old's each had their own Queen size beds :) This house definitely didn't disappoint and would recommend it to anyone. Very clean and up to date. You can see the ocean from the top deck and the beach was less than a 2 minute walk with the public access site directly across from the street the house sits on. The beach wasn't overly crowded either. The private pool and jacuzzi were clean and a very nice feature to the location. The only downfall is that there isn't an elevator, which wouldn't have been a problem but it was difficult for Grandma to get up and down. Other than that, it was perfect! If you're on the fence, just do it! You won't regret it!

The house was lovely and spacious.

As a student booking from out of town it would have been nice to know that we were located in a residential area a little farther from main street. The neighbors were super friendly though! The staff was great to work with and answered all of my questions. The recommended taxi company was for sure the way to go! Really affordable and worked with us! The house was beautiful! It was stocked with appliances and cooking utensils, beyond our expectation. Being so close to the beach definitely made the beautiful days worth wild. Our hot tub had a lot of difficulties, and maintenance was there everyday. We wish that we were given a max capacity, but our group made the most of it! We also wished that at check in there was a way for us to formally report any damages, like a hotel during spring break. Overall, our group made incredible memories in this home and we would recommend it.

We were there for the Christmas and New Year Holiday. The house is less than a block from the ocean, you can see and hear the waves. The house has everything you need kitchen with all you need to cook, pool table, pool and hot tub, awesome kitchen table that could seat 20 easily we used it for jig saw puzzles. The staff is very attentive and welcoming. We arrived late on 12-23 the lights were on for us and Christmas music was playing such a great welcome. We will be back thanks for a fantastic holiday.

We have stayed in several locations through Retreat Myrtle Beach and have always been very pleased with their pet friendly rentals. Furnishings are not elaborate, however everything is neat and clean.
