Sunsational Tara

Beach house was perfect for our family of 16. Everyone had their own bathroom connected to their bedroom which was priceless. The property management team was very responsive to all of my calls. The new washer was delivered during our stay and it only took a few minutes for the technicians to replace the washing machine. The 3 minute walk to the beach was ideal. We paid to have beach chairs and umbrellas set up every day so we would walk over late morning and the chairs and umbrellas were ready for us to lounge in the rest of the day. I highly recommend this rental property.

Our experience was very good. The house was conveniently located to beach access and quiet area. It was clean and appeared to be well maintained. The only issue was the washer which we communicated to rental office. They responded with maintenance follow-up and decided to replace. We were told it would happen on Friday, June 2nd but never happened.
We would rent again . Again we are from Wendell, N.C. , not Windale!!

From Start to finish, booking to travel home and the stay in-between was amazing. The house was super clean and so very welcoming. A bathroom is every room!!! Location was amazing. I would definitely book with Southern Coast Vacations again and rent the very same home!

Wonderful location and space. Wish it was a little more child friendly though. Had some issues with maintenance and cleaning unfortunately. Got in two hours later than promised and we had to wait. Then our washer and garbage disposal was broken and had to be fixed. If things would have been cleaned at the correct time, I believe we wouldn’t have had any issues at all.

We had 13 family members stay the week here (two children under 14) and our dog. Everyone had a great time, there was plenty of room to sleep, eat and relax. We love how close it was to the beach and we love the pool. I suggest taking advantage of the parking in the lot 1/2 a block behind the house so everyone is not moving cars around, as there is only room for 4 cars under the house and they all have to be in a straight line, one behind the other. Once we parked a couple in the lot behind us it was much less stressful to move cars around.

christmas rental for family

Lovely home with nice pool. Across street from beach, close walk. Good location. Beds uncomfortable and squeak every time you move. Biggest concern were the broken rocking chairs on top balcony and the lack of toilet paper and hand soap. For the price this should be included just as a hotel supplies for a much cheaper price.

The house exceeded our needs when it came to bathrooms and bedrooms. Plenty of room.

Where do I start? The cleaning service did a horrible job and I sent pictures to Southern Coast. The pool was not cleaned. Email said they clean it on Wed and Sat. I called Wednesday evening and they cleaned it on Thursday. Asked for extra keys. They never made one the man on prem promised. Service line was terrible. They never return phone calls. Kitchen pots and pans in terrible condition. Place is filthy. Owner is not getting their money's worth with Southern Coast, The Cleaning Service, or Pool Service. Owner will lose out in the long run as people will not go there. Sand galore in the house on the porches, up the stairs, etc. Can't even park but three vehicles. With four vehicles, you have to pay for Value Parking. Crowded neighborhood. Door handles and doors we had to clean. Sent pictures before and after to Southern Coast. Think we will return to our house from last year on 9th Ave. Sunsational Tara is not worth it.

Another enjoyable vacation at Sunsational Tara! It was our grandsons first beach vacation and being able to go back and forth was ideal.

My family of 8 adults and 5 kids had plenty of room in this house. There was enough seating in the main living area for everyone to be in a chair which was really nice. We had an ocean view from both balconies however, the balcony off the master bedroom had several loose boards that didn't feel safe to walk on. It was an exact 1 minute walk from the house to the sand. The outdoor toy storage and shower were very nice to have. The pans and other kitchen necessities were not in the best shape so I would recommend maybe bringing your favorite skillet and pot. We loved that the upstairs and downstairs had their own thermostats so everyone was comfortable. Our only complaints were that the outside furniture was covered in pollen so it didn't look like anyone had cleaned or sprayed them down prior to arrival, the beds were very noisy just sitting on them and the bathrooms could use some rugs, as a guest we weren't given enough towels to use for bath and the slick floors. We would definitely stay here again.

This place is spacious and easily accommodates a large family gathering with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen was well furnished. The only issues were the sofa smelled like dog, the internet was spotty, and the cable was not turned on when we got there. But those were minor issues for us, and we would definitely stay there again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place and vacation at the Sunsational Tara. We had 8 adults, 3 kids, and a dog together to celebrate my Dad’s 70th birthday and this location was unbelievable. It’s so close to the beach that you can almost consider it beach front and afternoon cool offs at the private pool couldn’t be beat. We loved our time here and will definitely be back! Thank you!!

We were a little worried about coming down this year with all the uncertainty regarding COVID-19 however the management company made us feel confident the property would be properly cleaned and it was. Great to get a change of scenery and was much needed. Some small things that would make the stay even better...WiFi needs a serious upgrade, it wasn’t useable and rocking chairs need some TLC.

Overall, the place was great. It had enough room for everyone, but not all of the cars. The view was amazing and there was easy access to the beach. The house could use a little updating, but it suited our needs.

Nice house. Very nice location. Clean. Only complaint was that the mattresses were very noisey. The ad indicated new mattresses but they squeaked with every movement on them.

We had an outstanding vacation while staying at the Sunsational Tara. The house is great. We would definitely stay here again.

This was our second time at sunsaitional Tara it was an awsome week with family was a pleasure working with southern coast representative

This is our 6th year staying at Sunsational Tara and we always enjoy ourselves. The proximity to the beach is ideal and the views from the porch are fantastic (need to trim one of the palms). The televisions have been upgraded but the internet WiFi is extremely slow. Was a great time!

We had a great time at this house for our annual family beach week. We had a house full of kids and adults so we needed a situation that could accommodate all needs. This house was perfect and would recommend for anyone seeking easy beach access and a pool. The proximity to the busy road was the only real concern however was mitigated by blocking off the stair access for the smaller kids.

Nice house with beach just across the street and close to any kind of stores needed. I would definitely rent again and recommend. The only downs were the appliances were outdated to the point you had to use the stove on high to cook and the house could have been a bit cleaner. But all in all it would not keep me from recommending.

Overall the house was nice. The women at the office were very nice and helpful and pleasant to deal with. The living room felt kind of crowded with all of the furniture. It would help to put the wifi code on the frig. Good location to the beach as well. I would recommend and would stay again.

The house was perfect for us. Every couple had their own room and their own bath. Just a few steps from the beach and close to all kinds of activities. The house was clean and provided plenty of room to gather. We cooked in as often as we went out. A couple of tubs drained slowly and mattresses were older but nothing we couldn't live with. We all agreed, if we do this kind of a gathering again, we would choose Sunsational Tara again!

This was a excellent location. In the middle between Merils inlet and Myrtle Beach. Only s short drive to both. bunch of golf course to choose from in the area as well. located across the street from the beach and has the inground pool to stay at the house as well.

The rental house and location was absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed relaxing on the swing after the hot days on the beach too. The beach view was also nice. There was plenty of room in the house for ever one. We plan to stay here again in the future.

While the weather didn't cooperate we had a great time! We have stayed here for the last 5 years but Sunsational Tara needs a little more TLC and updates to continue to be a great vacation destination; mattresses are uncomfortable and the same as 5 years ago, railing spindles not secure, porch chairs are in need of some paint, bathroom showers not draining, leaky kitchen sink facet, more than the normal share of palmetto bugs and technology (cable, wifi, DVD, etc) are ancient, board at top of the stairs as you step onto the porch landing is cracked, outside looking a bit weathered and in need of a refresh.

Wonderful house in the best location. Corner lot afforded privacy and pool was perfect for afternoons! I never took a shower inside the house because the outdoor shower was so inviting! The 6 bathrooms inside meant no waiting in there either! Surfside is very chill and the beach was wide and beautiful. Loved Angela's Fresh Market for great crab cakes and key lime pies!

Manager's Response

We loved the location and the picture of the beach does not do it the proper justice. Our family ranged from 11 months to 59 years of age and all in between. Loved having our own bathrooms. Close enough to walk to a few locations and to drive to more than a few more. I would have liked the property to be a bit more clean and some of the pans to cook in should be replaced in my opinion.

Manager's Response

Our vacation was much better than I had expected! The house was large enough to handle a large rowdy family and still give us personal space - 11 adults, 2 children, 3 babies. My family wants to make this an annual event. We have always loved the South Beach because it is closest to the good food at Murrells Inlet.

Enjoyed my stay at SunTara. The property met most of my expectations however, I was unhappy with the quality of the WIFI and there was no remote to the tv in the main living area.

Good location

Really enjoyed this home! It was in a great location and had wonderful views of the ocean! Had plenty of space and loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom with blow drier! Kitchen was fully stocked with all you need for preparing meals... would love to stay here again!

This is the 5th year we have stayed at Sunsational Tara and we continue to enjoy immensely. The inside was changed out with new carpet and furniture which was nice to see. We will be booking again for next year

Sunsational tara was just what our family needed. We enjoyed the pool and several of our grandchildren greatly improved their swimming skills because of the size of the pool. (Adults enjoyed it too). Beach access was very good almost like being right on the beach. The decks and rockers were used every night as we sat and talked as the night settled in around us. The size of the house was great too. So nice to not have to share bathrooms. House was clean and well stocked. Would definitely stay there again. The property owner and management company were very helpful and easy to work with

Some updating needs to be done in the kitchen with appliances, pans, etc. Location is great.

Where do I 4sons,their families & I (total of 14, from 5 different states)had a great experience. Loved being so close to the beach. The private pool was wonderful & refreshing on those very hot days. We only had one rainy day, so we set up several games & a food table in the open space under the house. The 5 grandkids could run around.(It would of helped if there was a cover over the main stairwell but it did not stop us)Everyone liked having their own bedrooms & bathrooms, the kitchen & great room was large enough to fit us all.
The property location was the BEST!! It was close to Myrtle Beach & other beaches, so we could go out for a fun evening but come back to a quiet place, without the crowds. The property was cleaned & well maintained, plus all the amenities. Who would of guessed that having a washer/dryer would of been so wonderful!!
A few evenings we just relaxed on the porch & enjoy the view. We even got to see a double rainbow over the ocean!!
Since I've never been to this area it helped talking directly to the owner when I was trying to set up our vacation time. Suzy was also very helpful with things to do in the area. We felt more like we were visiting a friend's home, instead of a 'rental'!!
Thank you very much, we had a great experience & can not wait to return.

The location is great. Loved that it was pet friendly for my fur babies. The house looked clean but I had to clean up a spill and the floors were filthy. There were roaches in the house. The seals around the doors were horrible so the bugs were able to come in. We had to buy bug spray to spray outside which helped a little. The rental place said they would spray after we left. I didn't want them to spray while we were there because of the dogs. The pool was great also.

The property was decorated with modern furniture and appliances. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. Very close to beach access along with quick accessibility to shopping and entertainment. Beautiful corner lot with additional parking very close. The property was reasonably priced and property manager was exceptional.

I would stay here again and recommend to others. Perfect for large families.
