Adventure is Out There in Myrtle Beach

Did you know that there are so many different things that your family can do on your next vacation? The kids are out for the summer and why not go on an adventure in the Myrtle Beach area. Staying with us at Myrtle Beach Resort will keep you close to where the fun is at nearby. Let’s take a look at a few of the fun adventures that your family can try on your next vacation below.

Be a Ninja

One of the latest crazes that has hit the United States has to be American Ninja Warriors. In many cities you may find your own obstacle course you can have fun on, but you are in luck. Myrtle Beach has their very own Ninja gym where you and your family can become a ninja too. Choose from 60 minutes to 120 minutes. What a great way to spend the day with the family to be a new Ninja Family!

Let’s Go Tubing

Did you know that you can do something a little different while at the beach? Instead of going to the beach for a day, head over to River Island Adventure. Here you will be able to do a few different things such as tubing down the Waccamaw River as a family, enjoy Taco Tuesday on a float or escape the island. This can become a family tradition with doing this and the prices are very affordable. Be sure to pack plenty of sunscreen to lather up so you can float down the river and enjoy spending time with each other!

Spend Time on the Water

Another great adventure that you and your family can do is do a few tours on the water. Many don’t think of doing something fun like this, but head over to Express Watersports where your family can choose what adventure tour you’d like to try. From taking a 30-minute Jet Ski tour to flying high in the sky parasailing, you won’t hear “I’m bored” out of any of your kids. And be sure to keep a look out for dolphins as they love to stay close and give you a show. Bring sunscreen, hats and be sure to pack your bathing suit as you go on a water adventure together!

Did Someone Say “Four?”

If your family is up for a little challenge against each other, why not check out Top Golf of Myrtle Beach? A newer attraction to the Myrtle Beach area is where the fun will start, and you won’t want it to end. You’ll find this 3-story building with 70+ Bays, a rooftop terrace, fire pits, and a restaurant at Broadway at the Beach. Top Golf offers group lessons, private bays for up to six people, or walk-ins. Plan a day with the family to this fun attraction in Myrtle Beach.

There are plenty of other adventures that your family can do while on vacation, but these are the few you’d enjoy. If you haven’t booked your next vacation to stay with us at Myrtle Beach Resort, now is the time. We hope that you and your family will be able to enjoy your next adventure and make new memories!

“Fall” in Love with Myrtle Beach Resort

It’s hard to believe that Labor Day is right around the corner, and it only means that fall is coming. This fall, instead of heading to the mountains, why not head on to Myrtle Beach. We at Myrtle Beach Resort love this time of the year for many different reasons, and we’d love to share with them with you. Let’s look below at how you and your family can “fall” in love with our resort on your next vacation.

Beach Weather

One of the best things about when you vacation with us here at Myrtle Beach Resort during the fall is the weather. Not only will you have pleasant weather, but you’ll also be able to enjoy the sand as well. The highs during the days will be around 80° and lows around 65° for September. October will bring a little cooler temperature, such as 75° as the high and 55° as the lows. We suggest that you pack a few different things for the days and nights. No matter what the temperature is here in Myrtle Beach, it’s most likely warmer than the mountains for sure.

Less Crowded

The fall months are a great time to visit Myrtle Beach as schools are back in session. This means that you’ll be able to enjoy more time together on the beach, at restaurants and when out shopping. You will also be able to travel around town a little easier as traffic won’t be a big reason, you’re late to dinner or a show. Another great reason is you’ll be able to find more availability at one of the many shows here in the Myrtle Beach area.

Amenities

Another great thing about coming to the beach during the fall months is the number of amenities that our resort has to offer. If it happens to be a little too chilly for the kids to enjoy the pool during the day, then have no fear as we have two indoor pools that you can take advantage of. Some of the other great amenities that we offer are hot tubs, tennis courts, three different health spas that have even steam rooms, saunas, and jacuzzi, and so much more. No matter what time of the year you visit Myrtle Beach Resort, there is something for everyone.

While there are many other reasons to fall in love with Myrtle Beach Resort, these are the few we wanted to share with you. If you haven’t booked your next fall vacation to stay with us, now is the time. We can’t wait to see you and

They also have a special “Chef’s Menu” offered with the course and drink pairings. Think of the delicious food you’ll get to experience in Myrtle Beach.

Salt Life Outlet

If you have someone in the family who loves Salt Life clothing, then you’re in luck. Salt Life Outlet has recently opened at the Tanger Outlets on Highway 17 in Myrtle Beach. Here you’ll be able to grab shirts, sunglasses, decals, and more. You can choose from fishing, surfing, diving, or just being a beach bum. This outlet would make the perfect stop for that special someone in your life who loves all things beach life.

Many other fun things have opened or will be opening in 2022 that we didn’t mention above. If you haven’t booked your next vacation to the area, give us a call at Myrtle Beach Resort today. We’d love to hear all about the new options on the Grand Strand that you gave a try.

Spend Spring Break with us at Myrtle Beach Resort

It’s hard to believe that Spring Break will be here before you know it. Spending some time with us at Myrtle Beach Resort will keep you and your family close to the action that will be happening in the area. For years, families have come to Myrtle Beach to spend their Spring Break here and this year is the perfect year to do it. Let’s look below at what you and your family can do while you are enjoying your break from school and work.

Myrtle Beach Food Truck Festival

Have you and your family ever experienced the Myrtle Beach Food Truck Festival before? If you haven’t, then you are going to be in for a treat. This year the City of Myrtle Beach is hosting the popular Myrtle Beach Food Truck Festival from April 1st to 3rd, 2022 in the Oceanfront Boardwalk District. This event is free to attend and will have several different food options that you can choose from. Some of the food trucks that you will be able to try are Time to Eat, Maggie Mae’s, Donut I Love U and EZ Cheezy. There will also be live entertainment for you to enjoy such as music and even a kid’s zone. Don’t miss this fun event as you can eat and have fun together as a family!

Easter Egg Hunt

If you have smaller children and you aren’t too interested in the Myrtle Beach Food Truck Festival, then bringing them to the Easter Egg Hunt may be better. Happening at McLean Park in North Myrtle Beach is where your family can enjoy collecting eggs in their baskets. There will be different areas for each age group starting from infants and up. The hunt will begin at 10:00 am on April 16th, 2022 and is free to attend. What a great day to spend with the family as you hunt for Easter eggs in the park.

Beach

Coming to the beach during Spring Break will always have different things to do but spending the day or more on the beach is what you’re looking for. Pack a lunch, grab the beach chairs & umbrella and go down and find your spot. Let the kids play in the sand making sandcastles, digging holes or hunting for shells is what vacation is about. Think of the new memories that you will make on the days you spend on the sand. What a great way to spend Spring Break then on the sand and by the surf.

While there are many other things you can do during Spring Break, these are a few things we wanted to share with you. If you haven’t booked your next vacation to stay with us at Myrtle Beach Resort, now is your time. We can’t wait to see you and your family as you take a break from life and enjoy it at the beach!

Book Direct Day is February 2nd, 2022 & a Day to Save You Money

Are you and your family planning a vacation to Myrtle Beach later this year? We need to tell you why you should #bookdirect with us if you are. Many online third-party vacation rental sites can add a 5%-20% additional fee to your reservation. We know that your vacations are significant and may limit how much you can spend each year. We at Myrtle Beach Resort wants to make sure that you get the most out of your money when you’re on vacation. The only way that you’ll be able to enjoy your vacation without getting hit with that unexpected fee is by booking direct today!

A Little About #BookDirect Day

On February 2^nd, 2022, we celebrate the 5^th Annual Book Direct Day, which was created to help educate vacation rental guests on the benefits of booking directly through an owner or Property Management Company vs. using a Third-Party agency such as Airbnb, HomeAway, VBRO & TripAdvisor.

While you may recognize these big-name companies and their gimmicks in helping you save money, you will soon learn that they will charge you a fee for using their website. Who wants to pay extra just to try and save a little money? Some of the expenses that you may incur when you book with an OTA can range from 5%-20% of the total cost of your vacation rental, which in turn can cost you thousands of dollars extra depending on which rental you choose.

Go on an adventure! Happy family preparing for the journey. Mom and daughters are packing suitcases for the trip.

Why You Should Book Direct with Myrtle Beach Resort

When you book direct with Myrtle Beach Resort, you will not only speak with one of our vacation specialists who are local to Myrtle Beach and can give you the best information on the area. We can provide you with our recommendations on where to dine, play, shop, and visit businesses in the area. Our office is conveniently in Myrtle Beach, so if any problems arise while you’re on vacation, we’re here to help. Plus, you will find that we often have specials throughout the year on your stays to help you save a little extra money.

How You Can Book Direct with Us?

You will find that booking directly with us at Myrtle Beach Resort is easy as 1, 2, 3! We encourage all guests to book their vacations directly through our safe & secure website, www.myrtle-beach-resort.com or call our office at (888) 826-4018. Rest assured that we will never charge any hidden fees, and we will always provide you with the best available rates on our professionally managed vacation rentals. We don’t want you to have to pay anything extra so that you can use that money to go out to eat or head out for a night of fun. We understand that your money is precious, and we can help you see that your vacation to Myrtle Beach is the best one it can be each year!

Are you ready to plan your vacation today? #BookDirect with us today to have the best-planned vacation year after year!
