Three Things To Look For In A Beachfront Condo

Myrtle beach condo rentals

There’s nothing like a beach vacation. The beach is the perfect place to go when you want to relax, and at the same time have the opportunity to go out and do something. During the day, you can relax and get a tan, dipping into the water when you want and soaking up nature. At night, you can sip your drink, play music, and dance — or again, enjoy the water and the beach atmosphere. Beaches are great places for single adults and families alike, and it’s no wonder that when it comes to “celebration vacations” — the vacations that 69% of leisure travelers find themselves on — the beach is usually the preferred destination. Many beaches also now have vacation towns surrounding them. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has become a thriving city, offering vacationers plenty to do when they’re ready to take a break from the sand and head into town. Where once, people were happy to stay in hotels at the beach, now many want to rent beach condos. Beach condo rentals have a lot to offer — it’s more of a luxurious home away from home experience, than a sanitized, boring hotel trip. It’s estimated that today, 24% of leisure travelers stay in vacation home rentals, and 23% stay in in condo resorts. That number should only rise. It’s believed that over the next two years, 47% will be interested in vacation home rentals over hotels, and 46% are interested in condo resorts. If you’re one of those looking to rent beach condos, let’s dive into what you should look for — that way, you’ll find the best vacation rentals for you!

1. Location

For those looking to rent beach condos, location is obviously important. You want to be as close to the beach as possible — though you should be aware that the closer your condo is to the beach, the more it will cost, as is natural. At the same time, if you’re prepared to pay for a beach condo, you should get your money’s worth. Don’t rent a condo simply because it’s claimed to be a beach condo. Oceanfront condos should be within walking distance of the beach, with many literally “on” the beach. A good view is very important — after all, this is your vacation we’re talking about! At the same time, keep the weather in mind. If you want to vacation in a stormier location, make sure that the landlord or rental company has flooding contingencies in place. With that said, consider whether or not you want a ground floor condo, or a high rise. Both have their pros and cons, and both are great. Don’t forget the town or city you’re vacationing near, either. You never know when you’ll want to go out on the town.

2. Size

Many associate a condo with compactness. Indeed, a condo is more compact than a house — but that doesn’t mean it has to be small. If you’re traveling with just a partner or a few adult friends, you don’t need too large a condo. However, you can rent beach condos large enough for an entire family. Don’t feel as if you have to limit yourself — often times, you can rent a condo large enough to offer a bedroom for each person. Of course, there are other things to keep in mind besides just the size of the condo.

3. Amenities

Amenities are especially important to consider when it comes to longer vacations. You’ll want to have a kitchen, as it’s doubtful that you’ll be going out for every meal. Another thing to keep in mind is the internet. Most people do want television and internet access at their condo — no matter how much time you spend out of the condo, there will be some time during which you’ll head inside. Keeping in touch with your family and friends is also a factor — having fun is important, but don’t forget practical aspects!
