Hi,

We love South Carolina - have a place at Tidewater Plantation in North Myrtle Beach - but it and Sun City - are VERY different from TV. I urge you to spend some time in each - I think many folks living in Sun City (SC, FL, AZ) all think they made the best choice. One factor to consider is we are an hour from a major international airport - you get to many places with NO connection and 1 hour and 1/4 from another large airport (Tampa). Sun City is about 1 hour from Savannah - connecting almost always through Atlanta or Charlotte.

That said, there are other threads comparing the two - so it may be worth your time to search.

What you can and can't choose in TV changes from time to time. For example, we bought in January and could pick a couple of different tile configurations, cabinets, counters separately from the cabinets, paint (interior and exterior), front elevation, and some expansions. The cabinet hardware and light fixtures went with the cabinets and couldn't be changed. Our new neighbors closing next week got more choices - including upgraded landscaping.

Some of the choices vary model to model - i.e. this is available in a Lantana but not in a Gardenia.

I hope you take some time to look this place over - and you give yourselves enough time to do it. A day or 2 is not enough. If you can, do as much research as you can online - here and on the TV website. Good luck with your search.
