The resort is right on the beach with all rooms facing the ocean. The resort offers pools, a lazy river, water slides, and hot tubs as alternatives to spending time on the beach or in the ocean. It's a great place for a family beach vacation.

There was quite a bit of noise in the hallways at all hours, as well as down in the pool area. We had a second floor room (not convenient when traveling with a toddler to be so close to high traffic areas). We also had to call several times for clean towels and the old linens and trash sat outside of our door for majority of the day before being picked up. Cooking utensils were plastic and burnt, we ended up grabbing a few from dollar tree to be safe.

The good things: -Good water park for the kids (lazy river was nice and long, slides were fun, lots of pools and hot tubs) -Good access to the beach -The full kitchenette was convenient The bad things: -HUGE cockroach in our room (the body was 2 inches long, my 12 year old couldn't sleep after seeing it) -Old, dinged up furniture. Beds and pillows were sunken in and too soft. -We weren't provided a change of towels until the day before we left (we were there for 6 nights) -No housekeeping services while we were there (beds left unmade, no garbage taken out) -We were told at check-in that someone would call us when our room was ready (admittedly we tried to check in before 4pm). Even though other people were given their keys at check-in, we had to wait. We waited 4 hours with no call. I went back to the front desk to ask about our room. Our room WAS ready. We wasted our first afternoon in Myrtle Beach waiting, and they were delinquent in communicating with us. -Our room keys weren't programmed for the duration of our stay (we had to go back to the reception desk across the street to get our keys reprogrammed) -Housekeeping knocked on our door before 11am. I told her we were on our way out, but she said she wasn't coming in. So then I asked her if we could have a change of towels, and she said we had to call the front desk for that. So why was she knocking on my door if she's not cleaning? Unfortunately, I don't think we'd come back.

Loud. But it’s a water park so expect kids and noise. Everything was slightly tatty or worn however it’s a beach rental you don’t stay in the room much. A bit dirty so if a super tidy person bring cleaning supplies. Restaurant was low quality bowling alley pizza. Worst thing was the time share sales attempts that were unexpected and unwelcome in a resort. Avoid that at all costs. I would not stay here again however the place did not interfere with my vacation.
