Overall this resort is an excellent place to stay. We had a slight issue but the staff & management were very apologetic and provided new accommodations as well as compensation. I have been vacationing at Myrtle Beach for years and I can honestly say this is in my top 3 of places I’ve stayed.

Room wasn't refilled with towels daily. Front desk wouldn't answer the phone or call back after leaving a message. Front desk was very polite but not informative at all about how the time share process works at this resort. Room was very nice and modern BUT bed was very creaky sounding and not comfortable after night 3. Night security guard was more helpful than the front desk.

The day would’ve been much better if the two pools were not across the street from each other. It’s inconvenient to have to go back-and-forth between the two pool areas.

Disliked: Staff & service
We thought this was a nice place to stay but after we left we found out it might not be. They make you speak to someone after checking in and get you reduced tickets to sit through a 90 minute timeshare presentation. However, that 90 minutes turns into 3 hours. They charge the wrong amount upon check in and then mess with your account after checking out. There was a grill on the balcony above us that kept dropping hot ash down onto the patio outside our door so we couldn’t use the patio if anyone was grilling above us. They will tell you it takes a few days to get your security deposit back but then say it could take weeks. If I had known all of this before booking I would have went some place else.

Wonderful Resort for Families! This resort was beautiful and very clean. The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach and close to restaurants. We loved that there were both indoor and outdoor pools, and the free ice on the property was a nice bonus! The staff truly made our stay even better. Everyone was friendly and helpful—especially Bianca at the front desk. She was absolutely amazing! The only downside was the pull-out couch, which wasn’t very sturdy and could definitely use an upgrade. To be fair, we didn’t report it during our stay, so the staff wasn’t aware. Overall, it was a fantastic spot for our family reunion weekend. Lots to do for kids and a great place to relax. We will definitely be back! ⸻ Let me know if you want a shorter or more casual version too!

Just okay stay

The service was just okay nothing special for the price. Room floors were INCREDIBLY dirty and ruined our socks. The location is oddly located and not very uber/lyft friendly. I visited the indoor pool and arcade and both were very outdated. Overall just okay not the worst but not worth the price.
