All units have one queen size bed and one queen sleeper. In addition, some studios and one bedrooms have bunk beds for small children. All two bedroom units have a queen bed in one room and twin beds (2) in the other.

Bike Weeks

The Popularity of the Myrtle Beach Resort during biker weeks has necessitated the implementation of a few policies created to accommodate our guests more comfortably.

1. Motorized vehicles are limited to five per unit.
2. Trailer size is limited to 18 feet. Should you be utilizing a larger trailer, please make arrangements for off-site parking.
3. Recreational vehicles and commercial trucks and busses can no longer be accommodated.
   
   A. Recreational vehicles are defined as pull behind or self-propelled campers that provide living space. There's simply no room during these busy weeks.
   B. A commercial truck is defined as anything other than the standard sport utility vehicle or pickup truck whose primary usage is transporting passengers.
   C. Busses include any vehicle that provides seating for more than eight or whose utility is more closely related to a self propelled vehicle with living space.


4. Day passes will be available from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM at $10.00 per pass. Overnight guest passes will not be available.
5. Parking charges for each motorcycle and each trailer is $10.00.

Directions

From the north (Rte 95): Exit onto 301 South off of U.S. 95 at the North Carolina-South Carolina border. In approximately 14 miles bear off to your left on U.S. 501. Stay on 501 for approximately 57 miles to U.S.-17 and go south. In 5.4 miles turn left on S.C. #544 and continue 2 miles to Bus #17. Turn left on 17 and the Resort will be 600 yards on the right - just beyond the white fence.

From the west (Georgia, Greenville, Columbia, etc. Rte. 20): Exit Rte. 20 onto U.S. 76 E near Florence, SC. Stay on 76E about 22 miles and fork off to the right onto SC-576E. 576 becomes U.S. 501. Stay on 501 for approximately 57 miles to U.S.-17 and go south. In 5.4 miles turn left on S.C. #544 and continue for 2 miles to Bus.#17. Turn left on 17 and the Resort will be 600 yards on the right - just beyond the white fence.

From the south (Rte 95): Take exit 33 off of Rte. 95 onto U.S. 17 N. to Garden City at which point you have the opportunity to fork left onto U.S. 17 or fork right onto U.S. #17 Bus. (There is a Holiday Inn Express at this intersection.) Take the right fork and go about seven miles. The Resort will be about 600 yards beyond the entrance to Ocean Lakes Campground (on the right - at the end of the white fence.)

Furnishings

Every condominium is privately owned and therefore individually furnished to the owner's taste. They are all equipped with central air and heat, CATV, VCR, vacuum cleaner, microwave, toaster, blender, and coffee maker. Also provided are kitchen utensils, dining ware, and cookware.

Golf

Myrtle Beach Resort Vacations utilizes a Golfing Specialist to create our packages which include accommodations, pre-reserved tee times and an optional rental car. Visit our Myrtle Beach Golf Packages page for more information.

Holiday Surcharges

Myrtle Beach Resort Vacations does not increase our rates during busy holiday periods as many other rental companies do.

Honeymoon Packages

Although we do not offer Honeymoon Packages per se, we do have nice ocean front studio condominiums with a living area, full kitchen, and queen bed overlooking the beach.

Hurricanes

While the actual chances of a hurricane hitting Myrtle Beach are slim (we’ve only had two or three significant blows in the past 50 years), we do get questions in the late summer/early fall. Should it become necessary to evacuate the resort due to a hurricane (threat or real), our displaced guests will receive credit in kind for the time they have lost.

Intenet Access

Free wireless Internet access is available throughout the resort.

Jacuzzis

While there are no Jacuzzi Units, there are several Jacuzzis throughout the Resort, both indoors and out.

Linen Package

Condos are provided with linen and towels, etc. for $50 per stay (3 BRs are $70).

Our linen package consists of sheets and pillow cases for all the beds including the queen sleeper couch. It also includes 8 bath towels, 6 wash cloths, 4 hand towels, 2 bath mats, 1 dish towel and 1 dish cloth.

Location

The Myrtle Beach Resort has an excellent location on the south end just minutes from all major attractions. It is approximately three miles to the center of Myrtle Beach, seven miles to Murrells Inlet, twenty miles to North Myrtle Beach, and six miles to Broadway at the Beach.

Meeting Rooms

There is one meeting room available that is capable of seating approximately 75 people theater style. We will refer you to a caterer should you wish to have food service.

Non-Smoking Units

While some of our units are designated as "Non-Smoking", we are unable to guarantee their availability nor that the previous tenant has abided by this rule.

Occupancy Limits

All two bedroom units accommodate six persons. Although some studios and one bedroom units have sleeping accommodations for six, we recommend an occupancy limit of 4 persons.

Pet Policy

The Resort Homeowners Association does not permit pets of any type beyond the security gate. There are kennels available in Myrtle Beach should you wish to bring your pet.

Post Office Boxes

Post Office boxes are available for longer term visitors. They may be secured in advance of your arrival by calling the Myrtle Beach Resort Homeowners Association office at (843) 828-1300.

Rental Patterns

During the summer season and the two weeks surrounding Easter, we generally require one week's occupancy, Saturday to Saturday. Since there are occasional exceptions to this policy, ask our reservationist if this pattern does not conform to your travel plans.

Resort Rental Companies

While Myrtle Beach Resort Vacations is on site and is the largest company dealing exclusively with Myrtle Beach Resort rentals, there are other companies that rent here as well. Since all of the units are privately owned, an owner may chose any rental company or rent it himself.

Restaurants

While the Resort does not include a full service restaurant, it does have a deli type restaurant and ocean front cabana bar (seasonal). There are many, many restaurants nearby.

Senior Discounts

Senior citizens (55 or older) renting and occupying a condominium are afforded a 10% discount on the rental rate providing that no other discount or special is included.

Special Rates

Myrtle Beach Resort Vacations continuously advertises "Specials" on our web site. Refer to it frequently to obtain the best rates. In order to receive a "special rate", you must request it. Previously confirmed rates cannot be altered.

Taxes/Fees

Our rental taxes/fees on condominiums in Myrtle Beach equal 15%. They do not pertain to units leased over ninety days.

Telephone

All units have one telephone and their own number. Local calls are free and long distance calls must be made collect or with a telephone credit card.

Transportation

Myrtle Beach is a "car town". The attractions are spread up and down the beach. Those of you who choose to fly in are best off renting a car. You may secure taxi service to the Resort for a nominal fee (approximately $15.00).

Utility Charges

Needless to say, short term vacationers need not worry about utility charges. Long term renters will be responsible for monthly electrical charges over $90 in a two bedroom unit and $60 in a one bedroom unit or studio.

Views

The entire Resort is located between the highway (Business 17) and the ocean. There are no public roads between any condos and the beach. The resort has Two Bedroom, One Bedroom, and Studio units available with varying views of the ocean. View designations are described below:

Ocean Front - Directly facing the beach/ocean.

Tower Ocean View - While on the side, the view of the ocean and beach is superior.

Lower Ocean View - Again, on the side but with an excellent view of the beach/ocean.

Moderate Ocean View - A side unit from which the ocean is visible but the view decreases as the distance from the beach increases.

Non-Ocean View - You cannot see the beach or ocean from your unit.
