the best beach vacation

This was the best beach vacation we have had. It only took us 1 min to walk to the beach and they provided everything we could possibly need including chairs, wagons, umbrellas, and towels. We could clean off easily in the outdoor shower. The beds were extremely comfortable and they made us feel welcome from the start with some treats, snacks, and drinks when we arrived.

Perfection

Scott and Mary's home was more than we could have ever known to ask for. The set-up for our 2 families was perfect, with both sides of the duplex, the property was situated as close to the beach as it possibly could be without sitting directly on it, and all of the extras included, from beach toys and wagons, to waters and fruit and snacks for the kids. Hospitality like this was incredible to receive, and we will remember this stay forever as being perfection. Thank you, Scott and Mary. In gratitude, The Simmons and Faiello Families.

Fabulous Hosts

We absolutely enjoyed everything about our stay at Laughing Whale! I can't say enough about the attention to detail that Scott and Mary offer. Their description of the property was accurate - clean, comfortable and very close to the beach. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware to prepare meals and relax at the house. The front porches were nice and the atmosphere on the back porch was phenomenal - love the lighting! The outdoor shower and shell washing station were awesome. The provision of chairs, wagons and sand toys was very helpful and the age appropriate welcome snacks were fun. I love that even though the neighbors are close in proximity there was plenty of privacy. Every day of our stay we would would find something new that confirmed our choice to stay at this property was the best choice. Thank you Scott and Mary for everything. You truly are 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 hosts!

Clean, comfy, everything you need!

Wow!!! We are thrilled with our stay at the Laughing Whale Cottage. We came with 3 other couples, and everything about our stay was perfect. First of all, it was incredibly clean. If you are a clean freak like me, look no further - this place was spotless! At one point we misplaced our keys and were looking everywhere - under beds, in couch cushions, etc - and even looking in all those places, everything was impeccably clean. The house was very well stocked, with very nice/thick towels and beach towels, a beach wagon, beach chairs, etc - all of which were in great condition. The layout of the house was perfect for the 4 couples, and the beds were very comfortable. Communication was excellent - Mary and Scott replied promptly every time I reached out and were very helpful. This is one of the best rentals I've ever stayed in, and I come to the beach often. Our whole group loved it and commented that Mary and Scott had thought of everything. Highly recommend!!!

We had a great stay at this house in North Myrtle Beach! This was actually our third year staying at this house, and we continue to be impressed every time.The home itself was clearly well cared for — you could tell the owner takes real pride in maintaining the property. Every room was clean and comfortable, and it was obvious a lot of attention had gone into the little details that make a place feel like a home away from home.Location was a huge plus. We were able to walk to the beach in just a few minutes, which made it so easy to enjoy the sand and surf without dealing with parking hassles or long drives. It's the perfect spot if you want quick, convenient beach access without sacrificing a peaceful residential feel. We rented a golf cart as there was parking for them near-by with beach access.Communication with the owner is easy. They are responsive, easy to reach, and quick to answer any questions we've had — both before we arrived and during our visit. Year after year, we've always been pleased with our accommodations here, and this stay was no exception.

This was our second visit to the property in three years and it was awesome again. Everything that you could possibly need is provided. Perfect location, comfortable beach living. It is like your home away from home. The layout is great and two families can share their time together, yet have their own space. We will one hundred percent be back again. Thanks Mary and Scott for another memorable vacation!

Beachy Vibes

The Laughing Whale was the perfect beachy cottage for our Myrtle Beach vacation. Mary and Scott have thought of everything. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed for our lazy days in as well as everything needed for the beach. The beach wagons and towels were super helpful and one less thing that needed to be packed. We would definitely return.

Everything was as advertised for this property and then some. The dual set up was perfect for a getaway with friends and our kids. Conveniently located neighborhood, accessible to the beach and local attractions, we wanted for nothing. Most of all, the small personal touches welcoming our crew went above and beyond. The owners were so responsive and attentive and nothing short of amazing. Would visit again in a heartbeat - probably the best rental experience I have ever had.
