Great stay

The room was nice, comfortable and clean. The air conditioner unit was a life saver. It was extremely hot outside and the unit worked well the entire stay. Also the bathroom was nice. Water was hot every time we showered!

The first night we stayed in a room where the popcorn ceiling was flaking on me and my 3 year old all night. It was on the bed and the floor. The carpet smelled musty. There was black mold in the closet that we saw the next morning. When we woke up in the morning we found a large black bug in between the two queen beds (maybe water bug?). That morning we went to the front desk and they changed our rooms. The only difference was that the second room did not have carpet and the popcorn ceiling was scraped. There was still mold on the curtains and in the corner of the kitchenette area. We were also told they are no longer supplying plates and kitchen items in the kitchenette (a big reason I chose this hotel). Also I had asked for clean bath towels, and they were out. So we had to reuse our bath towels over 3 nights (probably longer if we stayed longer). The only reason I did not change hotels is because the week we went, it was super busy and no vacancies around us. Another note to add- the pool was dirty and disgusting. They do not clean the pool or even skim it every day. There was a false eyelash in the pool all 3 days we were there. There are a few spa pools that are not open- one guy fell in an empty spa that is in the middle of a walking area and had to be rushed to the hospital. The pool bar is not open (from what I heard hasn’t been open for over a year). I hope my review motivates the owners to put some money and effort into what could be a great hotel/vacation spot.

We have stayed there the past couple years and it was nice . This year our room keys wouldn’t work , door handle broke off to balcony , commodes wouldn’t flush , bedding was stained . Hall ways were nasty . Wouldn’t give us another room . Had to ask for refund after going down to office 4 times . Vacation ended up bad due to killing time trying to book another ocean front place . Never again will I stay here !!!!

We showed up and they had lost a reservation, they tell everyone that check-in is at 3. It's really at 4:00. Maybe 5:00 or whenever they get around to it, which is the general gist of the place. I stayed for a week not once got clean bedding had to beg for towels. The key cards never seemed to work I was at the front desk almost daily. It was moldy and just overall dissatisfying. The only good part was I didn't see any roaches inside...

First off I want to say I have a mentally challenged daughter that will not get in the ocean because of a fear of waves so I always get a hotel with a pool so she can enjoy some swimming. At check-in on a Sunday we were told the pools were broke but would be available on Tuesday, which wasn’t a big deal because we planned another activity for Monday. Pools weren’t ready until the night before we checked out. If I knew this I would have went elsewhere. I had 3 rooms for this trip, when my daughter got to her room it looked as if there was a bullet hole in her door, no big deal, but she didn’t even have a shower curtain. She went down to the front desk to let them know and she was handed a shower curtain to put up herself. The rooms were pretty nasty, but we don’t spend much time in the rooms anyways, but we had to take our dirty towels down to the front desk to get clean ones. I have never been to a place where you have to do that. My biggest complaint is I was charged $100 incidental deposit for each room and still haven’t gotten that back, almost a month later. This place sucks !! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE !!

Not for couples!

This was a huge disappointment. The website pictures are very deceiving. Our first room had rust and mold in several areas of the room. The balcony was peeling paint mold and soaked from AC leaking. It actually looked like a prison cell! The room we moved to wasn’t much better. There were no decor items…just dirty walls, dirty light switches, a rubber mat in the tub to hide a collapsing tub floor. Don’t weigh too much or you’ll fall through it!!!

Really good location and beautiful view from the balcony . Staff was all nice and friendly. Room was clean. This was our first family trip to Myrtle beach, because of our experience we will definitely be back we spent most of our time adventuring the area since there is soooooo much to do! Don’t let the bad reviews stop you from enjoying yourself! Everyone has different standards.

We had a pretty good stay while we stayed here the beach veiw was great.the private beach access was a plus. The Jacuzzi was not working the whole time during our stay when we were there. The building needs some up keeping and updating this structure is run down in parts.. It was hard for us to use the wall plugs.They were unable to tightly fit our cords. There was not any cleaning service unless you specifically asked for it.

I liked the property the staff was friendly. The air conditioning in my room did not work. For that one reason alone I will not stay at this property again. The lady at the front desk said they was sending someone. But we wheee out of the room at that time but when we returned the room was still hot. I was not able to enjoy the outside activity as I would have like to because I had no cool place to recover form the heat. Very disappointed

I would never recommend this property or stay there again. Positive: Staff were very helpful. The property itself was ran down. You go into the rooms from outside and they have filthy carpet on every floor. Everything on the outside is worn. Definitely needs an upgrade. Pools looked run down. Lazy river had no tubes and didn’t look clean. Hot tubs were closed. Couldn’t get comfortable sitting in the outside lounging/picnic area because of water bugs. We stayed on the 4th floor and had to go to the 9th, 11th, or 14 floor for ice. We went to the 9th floor and no ice so we had to go to the 11th floor. The restaurant on the property also closed. The room wasn’t horrible, that was the saving grace but the air conditioner leaked the entire time. The room didn’t have carpet so we were able to get the water up. The door to the terrace was off the hinges and we struggled getting the door open and closed. There are no phones in the room so you have to use your phone or go to the lobby to request anything: Also, no iron or ironing boards in the rooms. It’s not worth it!!
