My husband and I along with my parents vacationed in Myrtle Beach last summer. We lodged at the new Sandcastle Hotel. Service there was rotten. I don't think they knew what the word "acommodate" even meant. We were never able to get enough towels even when we ran down housekeepers and asked for more. The staff was very unfriendly as is typical with most all business people in MB anyway. Hospitality is not MB's strong point and folks at Sandcastle aren't even acquainted with the word. Besides not being supplied towels, the elevators were pitiful. Seemed as though half our time was spent on an elevator. Finding parking in garage was a hassle every night, and getting a chair at pool- side was impossible unless one camped in it all night. Overall the Sandcastle failed to accommodate total number of customers it lodged. It seemed as though once we were registered and had yielded our credit card we were on our own and "tough luck Charlie as far as Sandcastle was concerned. Oh yeah, I forgot to tell about the fire alarm we experienced between 3-4 p.m. while taking shower . Everyone in building was sent out to street for 30 minutes to watch fire trucks arrive, listen to sirens, and witness utter chaos which resulted in a so-called manager announcing "false alarm" with no explanation for disgruntled customers. We did however, experience wonderful dining at places such as The Chesapeake and Gulleyfield's. They offer first-rate dining and fabulous food and atmosphere. Shopping was fantastic. I loved Barefoot Landing and outled centers. Linda

Myself and two friends decided to go to North Myrtle Beach this past weekend (June 10-12, 1999). We checked a few sites on the internet and found the Blue Water Inn. They had reasonable rates (not cheap, but not expensive), so we made reservations. When we got there, BWI was a mom and pop run hotel, not the cleanest, and it had a bit of an odor, but it wasn't the worst (especially after we used our own lysol to dimish it). During the first night of our we asked cabdriver Todd (kudos to Ocean Cab) for a good place to eat, not knowing the area. Todd recommeded Outriggers, forgive him for trying to help. On Friday, after a long day at the beach, we were expecting to come back to a clean room that had been touched by housekeeping, silly us! It was not. They were nice enough to give us some clean towels, so we cleaned up and went to Joes bar and grill (This is now our favorite place at Myrtle beach...we recommed it to all). Saturday, again, no housekeeping. However, we did receive new towels to wash up and go out. When we got back, we decided to put the one extra blanket on the bed to cover up the dampness from which we cannot identify or explain. Sunday, we left and got back to PA around midnight. Tired, I still decided to unpack because I was checking for cockroaches, being that we saw one in our room that morning. Unfortunately, all my jewerly was missing. Can't explain that one either, being that it never the room, and housekeeping was never there, Right????

Hello all, just some suggestions for lodging in Myrtle Beach. We have stayed at the "Breakers,Sandcastle,and Carribean". All 3 were nice but the "Breakers" had the nicest appeal. The rooms were not as nice as the others, but they were not bad in anyway either. But the pool, and outside ammenities were hard to beat. It was not a concrete palace. Lots of grass and palm trees around and places to find shade when needed. Also 3 nice places to eat within walking distance.(River City Cafe,Dirty Dons,Bum's)If you have kids then Myrtle Beach is one great destination. If you get board there it is your own falt. There is so much to do you couldn't mention it all in one day

HELP!!! I'm looking for a 3bedroom 3bath condo or townhouse for August 1-7. We have 4 adults and 4 children. We would like something not too far from the pavillion area oceanfont or oceanview. POOL is a must as the 2 boys age 5 and 7 are water rats. Are there any private owners out there? we are very family oriented. Our husbands golf every morning while us girls shop or hang out at the beach. We are non-drinkers and do not smoke. Accomodations must be CLEAN! We previously stayed at the lanmark which is GREAT, but we had to get seperate units to accomodate us. So I think we can get a better price for a condo. HURRY PLEASE AS TIME IS RUNNING OUT!!! THANKS.

6/8/99 We just returned from Mrytle Beach after spending a week camping. We enjoyed Lakewood Campground (great pool), rented a car from Thrifty (which they picked us up and bought us back to the campgrd ), and really loved Broadway on the Beach. Broadway had everything to do there, especially the dining and nightclub spots. Also we went to the Dixie Stampede, great fun for the price and went to two tapings of the Crook and Chase show at their theatre. The tickets were inexpensive (10) and the taping was fun and entertaining. More info check the Crook and Chase site on the web. We loved Mrytle Beach and will return again.........

6/7/99 We are returning to Myrtle Beach again this year in August. We go almost every year and have stayed in so many different places it is hard to remember them all!I wrote to the travelogue a couple of years ago concerning the fact that we had never really stayed in a place we would really like to return to. Last year we stayed at the Sands Ocean Club and enjoyed it immensely.We have reservations this August at the Long Bay Resort. Hopefully it will be a nice place. If anyone has stayed and would like to share some insight it would be appreciated. This will probably be the last place we will try. If it is nicer than the Sands then we will have finally found a place to keep returning to. If not then we will go back to the Sands and relax at Ocean Annies Beach Club for years to come Thanks Roddy

It is the season for Myrtle Beach and my family and I just can't wait! My husband and I have been going to Myrtle for 18 years and it's the BEST! We always stay at the Patricia Grand on the strand. The hotel is great!! Every time we go it's like they have known us for years. The service is the best, the employees are very friendly and go out of their way to please you! One time I remember we got there and they didn't have a room for us,well the manager came to the lobby and said how sorry he was for the inconvience and that he said I will make room for your family and I will take care of it myself. After 15 minutes passed, he came back and said the room is not the one you wanted, the room is a upgrade, but for your inconveince the price of the room will be the price of the room you wanted, does that sound good to you? And I said that would be just fine with us!! So we got into the room and it was great. If I had a choice between Myrtle Beach and Florida for a vacation the choice would be MYRTLE BEACH. Take a chance and you will love it. Tommy Sue Adam,OHIO

I just visited Myrtle Beach after my graduation from May 22,1999 - May 28,1999. I stayed at the Coral Beach Resort for the first time, since my family usually stays at Ocean Creek Resort. I had a wonderful experience at Coral Beach Resort. The staff was very friendly and most helpful. The clearest advantage of this resort over Ocean Creek are more luxuries for less money including a very CLEAN facility, a restaurant, health club and spa, 6 pools(1 indoor)and 4 hot tubs(2 indoor), bar, bowling alley, arcade, and a few clubhouses. They truly have something to interest all people! I stayed in an ocean view room that had an absolutly gorgeous view of the ocean. The kitchens in the rooms were more than adequate for cooking. The cleaning staff was most friendly and very prompt with service. As a whole, I would say this is the BEST resort that I have stayed at in 18 years in Myrtle Beach. I would recommend it to everyone who loves to have a good time in a nice and clean family environment!

WARNING!!!!!!!!!! We just returned from our second trip to Myrtle Beach. We were MISSING our Sony Walkman and were very disappointed in in the CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS. Somethings have definitely changed. Upon arriving, we checked into our room, only to find out that it was not clean and in need of repairs, for $80.00 per night, I expected more. So we ended up paying another $10.00 a night for an acceptable room. During our stay our Sony Walkman WENT MISSING from our locked room.(It was the only item left out of our locked suitcases because we changed the batteries.) I guess I have more in people. The CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS would NOT compensate in anyway, they say they are NOT RESPONSIBLE for any thing that goes missing from your room. WARNING if you intend to stay at the CAPTAINS QUARTERS BE PREPARED TO LIVE OUT OF LOCKED SUITCASES FOR THE WEEK. Luckily we kept all of our money with us!! Not a great way to spend your vacation!! We will never stay at this location again!! I hope this helps someone else.

I have been vacationing at MB since I was 5 years old. We have stated everywhere. Our most recent visits have been at Tropical Winds and Captain's Quarters. They are both super places to stay. I love MB and have to go every year. I see something new every year. I have a son who is 11 years old. He has been going since he was 2 and he like I enjoys it too. It's a great place to be for fun and relaxing. The only thing I wish the rates would stop going up. When we first started going my day paid 18.00 a night. We stated at the Yachtsman the first year it opened and the rooms were 32.oo a night. Years later we paid 100.00. What happened to the good ole days? I LOVE MYRTLE BEACH.

I just returned from a horiable vacation, I have been coming to Myrtle Beach for many years and up untill this year have alwasy had a good time. We have been staying at the same resort these past years as well. We won't be doing that in the future. Vacationers BEWARE !!!! DO NOT STAY AT THE SEA MIST RESORT!!! I had a totally horriable vacation, i was lied to about what I would be recieiving in my so called" family package" the attractions that were in the package were closed down the week i was at the beach, Both myrlte waves and the family kingdom were closed. So i paid extra for a family package and did not get what i promised. I was also told there would be 2 family dinners that week, guess what? there were none!! I asked to stay in the Jewel Building botom level, well i was crammed into a small dirty hiden in the far corner with a great view of the motel 8... I paid over 400.00 just for the sea mist, then had to spend a bunch more entertaining the kids since the parks were closed.I have tried 5 times to contact the manager of guest relations to at the very least get an apology out of him, really I think its only fair that I get a partial refund, but I wont hold my breath, but he wont even contact me to say he is "sorry"... So vacationers BEWARE AND STAY AWAY FROM THE SEA MIST I DONT THINK THEY RUN AN HONEST BUSINESS!!!!! JANINE HANKS 5-7-99 LEXINGTON, NC

I forgot to mention the Conch Cafe on the beach in Surfside Beach (south of MB) from where I stay, it is usually a short walk, and you can go there for lunch in your barefeet and baithing suit and eat on their deck overlooking the beach and the ocean. It has to be one of my favorites! how could I forget. The food is reasonably priced, I recommend the Shrimp Po'Boy... really good. Watch out though, mixed drinks are incredible, and you'll pay upwards of 6 bucks per glass -- but they are well worth it!! DON"T MISS IT!

I've been visiting the Myrtle Beach area since I was 12 years old (I'm not 27 and married). I continue to visit every year for so many reasons. My husband now loves the MB area, but since I was about 16, we started staying a bit south of Myrtle Beach, in either Surfside Beach or Garden City Beach area. These 2 places are only minutes from MB ( about 15 for Surfside, 20-25 for Garden City) and they are SOOO much less crowded and much cleaner in my opinion ( not that MB is dirty!) The beaches are less populated, and on the whole, rentals are cheaper. We have always either rented a house or condo, thru either Surfside or Garden City Realty. I'd recommend anyone looking for a place to visit them online -- the condos have washer/dryers and pools (usually) along with a kitchen which helps if you don't want to eat out. I like to avoid hotels as they are usually crowded. Anyways, as far as eating out -- I'd like to recommend my favorites -- some of these I've eaten at almost every year since I was 12... First -- GO TO MURRELL'S INLET if you like seafood (south of garden city, about half hour 40 minutes from MB) It is basically a fisherman's town, with tons of good restaruants. It gets crowded at nite, so get there early or make reservations. My fav. places in murrells inlet are: FLO'S(cajun and spicy seafood, gator and such), BOVINES (all around good stuff) ANCHOVIES (seafood, burgers, and more) and DRUNKEN JACKS(only average food, a bit pricey, a long wait, but GREAT atmosphere and nite life, along with a good view of the sunset!!!--esp. great on the 4rth of July, our usual haunt is here) okay, out of murrels inlet, on 17 south of garden city is KYOTO JAPANESE Steak house. IT IS by far the best japanese food I have had in MB. Great prices, but MAKE a reservation at least a few days to a week in advance. ASK for the pits in the middle (3 sunken tables) They cook teppenyaki (sp?) really really really great! Also, if you like Ribs, try DAMON's in barefoot landing -- not as good as they have been in the past as far as service, but the food is still good. As far as buffets, if you like salty southern cooking, there is a place on 17 south past garden city (about 30 min. from MB) called THE BACK PORCH. You have to look for the big billboard. I'm not sure if they are still open, I heard they may be closing last year -- but if they are there, they sure are GOOD! Visit Huntington Beach State Park for a nice quiet natural beach day, or Brookgreen Gardens if you like nature/flowers/sculpture. I have much more info if any one needs, email me! Heading down again this year on the 3rd-10th of July, so hope to see you there!(amynewcomb@yahoo.com)

Just go back from myrtle 04/18/99. Played 6 rounds in four days and played some beautiful courses. We stayed in condo units at Pawleys Plantaion. The rooms were very comfortable and well kept. We did find he southerly location inconvenient to the most popular restuarants though. We played Caledonia, which I thought was one of the most beautiful courses we've seen in the 18 rounds /3 yrs. there. True Blue is also a great course, I would reccomend both. Pawleys platation - the holes over the marshlands are as dramatic as any you would see on the PGA Tour. Also a very nice course to play. Played The Legends Heathland. A nice course but not that easy to play.

We love Myrtle Beach. We try to make it at least once a year. This year will be our 18th visit. Word of warning...DON'T stay at the Quality Inn near the pier and pavilion. We had things stolen from our room, found our towels on the floor of the bathroom, toilet paper (the whole rolls)left in our sink, and a management staff that seemed totally uncaring about the whole ordeal. Housekeeping even entered our room while the "Do Not Disturb" sign was on the door. Nearly every chair at the pool was broken and the hotel itself had a funny odor. All this for $700.00 for the week! WE highly recommend Ocean Forest Plaza. Clean,affordable,and a friendly,helpful staff.Located a bit north of all the action but worth the drive.

I had gone to Myrtle Beach as a child and had not been back for years until I got married July 1996. We stayed at the Carolian. This place was nice. Only couples and families, no screaming teens, security was great. We did stay in North Myrtle 1998 at the Blockade Runner, was affordable and clean. Would return to either hotel again. Places to eat Crabman's with the red roof and Seafare in Murrel's Inlet. Well worth the money it is our anniversary dinner each year.

First time to Myrtle Beach (April 8th - 11th, 1999) HERE IS MY EXPERIENCE WITH MYRTLE BEACH (A LITTLE LONG BUT INFORMATIVE) I wanted to fill this out because I read these travelogues while planning my stay which I feel helped me........ My girlfriend and I decided to spend a few days in Myrtle Beach the Sunday before. We chose it becuase the forecast (www.weather.com) was to be nice that weekend. Since neither of had stayed there I spent several hours on Monday on the internet at http://www.USAescape.com/MyrtleBeach/LodgingList.html looking for nice places to stay. We wanted to be on the beach and becuase it was a last minute vacation which needed to planned inside a day, we decided to stay at a resort hotel since I felt would be easiest. After reading several horror stories of some old worn out resorts on the Grand Strand, I reasoned the newer a place was (no matter how it was run) would be good since I was more worried of staying in a run down place than bad service. I started calling all the resorts I found on the logging web page and ended up accidentally talking to a Myrtle Beach travel agent who lives in the area. She also recommended staying at a newer place since they would probably be the most decent as far as cleanliness. In particular, the resorts she recommended to me were the Yachtsman (probably the nicest on the Grand Strand), The Coral Beach, The SandCaslte South, and the The Crwon Reef. Of these, the place that had a vacancy and looked most appealing to me was the SandCastle South (there is a SandCastle resort that is located north of central Myrtle Beach whereas the SandCastle South is two miles south.)It also happended to be the newest resort hotel on the Grand Strand. The travel agent I talked to told me it had been open for only a year and I called the SandCastle twice to talk to two different receptionists who also both told me it had been open for only a year. In addition, they both told me all construction was complete (so there wouldn't be any half complete swimming pools or construction mess). THE SANDCASTLE SOUTH IS A VERY NICE RESORT HOTEL. It has an outdoor swimming pool, lazy river(heated), and two hot tubs(whirlpools) that are hot!! There is also a heated indoor pool and kids wadding pool. The place was immaculate. We were there near the last part of the yearly spring break legacy so the city and the beach were full. The SandCastle Resort had no vacancy but there was still plenty of room around the pool and on the beach. OUR ROOM WAS VERY NICE. IT WAS CLEAN AND WELL FURNISHED; EVERYTHING WAS BRAND NEW. TWO NICE TV'S, 3 QUEEN SIZE BEDS, A FULL SIZE REFRIGERATOR, 4 BURNER STOVE, POTS AND PANS, KITCHEN UTENSILS, AND A VERY LARGE MICROWAVE, AND EACH ROOM HAS TWO OF IT'S OWN A/C AND HEATERS WHICH YOU CONTROL (and no I don't have an investment in the resort). Generally speaking, the resorts closest to central Myrtle Beach (which I call the Pavillion Amusement Part area) are older or much more run down because they have been there for so long. They are probably cheaper would explain why there was such a large concentration of teeny boppers in that area. There are tons of places to stay in Myrtle Beach. There are also some very nice national chain hotels within a mile from the beach (like the Hampton Inn on R17). If I were to go back to Myrtle Beach and wanted to stay on the beach I would look into renting a condo (there are just tons of them in between the resort hotels and they looked pretty nice). If I were to stay in a resort hotel, I would try The Crown Reef. It is huge and very elegant. One day while walking on the beach behind it, my girlfriend and I walked up into their patio pool area and it was nice! It was just as clean as the SandCastle South, just bigger and more elegant. A big plus about staying at the SandCastle South or the Crown Reef is that they are about 2.5 miles south of central Myrtle Beach where all the older, cheaper places are which is where the concentration of youths hang out. I don't know if it was becuase we were there during the spring break season but at 3 o'clock in the morning, there had to be a thousand or more teenagers walking and driving up and down ocean blvd. everynight. It was a big crusing scene where a mile of "decked out" cars would slowly drive up and back the Pavillion Area playing loud rap music. I would have hated staying in a resort in that area. The Yachtsman looked like a really nice place, but it is in the heart of that mess. We didn't find the attractions in the Pavillion Area worth stopping for. We did vist Ripley's Believe It or Not which we didn't care much for either. Atleast not what we payed to get in. THE BEST ATTRACTION AT MYRTLE BEACH IS BROADWAY AT THE BEACH. Lots of good restaurants, little unique shops, as well as Ripley's Aquarium and the IMEX Theatre. We thought Ripley's Aquarium was the neatest attraction in the city (it has a huge tank that you walk under which contains 6 or more adult sharks!!!) and an area that allows you to touch sting rays, skates, and baby sharks. IF YOU GO TO MYRTLE BEACH, GO TO RIPPLEY'S AQUARIUM. The IMEX theatre was also worth visiting but being from Cincinnati where we have an IMAX theatre (similar to the IMEX but bigger and better) it wasn't as impressive as the aquarium. BAREFOOT LANDING is also worth visiting (no you don't walk around barefoot on sand or anything - it's just a name) and is similar to BroadWay at the Beach but not nearly as large or elegant. YOU COULD EASILY SPEND AN ENTIRE DAY AT BROADWAY AT THE BEACH!!!! NEGATIVES ABOUT MYRTLE BEACH - There were too many teenagers that played loud music and drove like complete idiots. The people there we felt were generally arrogant and traffic was often at a standstill (except farther south where we were staying). There didn't seem like there were as many police as there should have been. There is a restaurant on every corner and it was nearly impossible to go to one during the dinner hours without having to wait half and hour. Make reservations if you can. Also, check around and see if people recommend a place that has good food. We didn't have a good dinner any night we were there. I'm sure there is good food in Myrtle Beach, you just need to find it. The beach was very shelly, meaning you needed some sort of sandle to get out past the first fifteen feet without saying several four letter words. PARKING GARAGES AT THE RESORTS ARE TIGHT!!! The garage at the SandCastle South had more than enough spaces, they were just small as well as the garage itself. The other resort's garage's looked cramped as well. Try not to plan on bringing your biggest vehicle if you are parking in a resort hotel!!! POSITIVES ABOUT MYRTLE BEACH - It is a close Florida!!! Prices for everything was very reasonable. Despite all the shells on the beach, it is still a nice beach. Good surf if you like the waves. The sun was very warm and the weather was beautifull. An absolute ton of plays to swing golf clubs and lots of places to play miniature golf. There is alot to do in Myrtle Beach and would be a great spot for a family vacation. I would enjoy going back to Myrtle Beach Again!!!!!!!!

4/14/99. Spent 4 great days at the beach. The weather was excellent 75 plus each day. Played Legends Heathland which was in great shape and a good first course as it's wideopen. The Wizard was great, the greens are large and in great condition. The finishing holes are beautiful and very challenging. DO NOT play Belle Terre!!! It is not worth the money. The course was not in good shape and was not any fun to play. We finished up at Heather Glen and loved it. The course is beautiful and well maintained. If you want good Mexican food (try the poppers) go to the Burro Loco on bypass 17.

My first time ever seeing the ocean was going to Myrtle Beach. It was a bad time here, I was in a serious depression, my family was falling apart, my grades were slipping, I was all messed up on drugs, it was bad. Well, I canna say that it was Myrtle Beach really, that helped me, but rather just the ocean. LOL, we had a hard time getting into a hotel...we had made reservations at a really nice place, and when we got there, they said we had to be 25 to get in (be very careful when planning, everyone) Well, luckily, we found a place (i dunna member the name) that took us tho we were only 18. We didn't get to stay the amout of time we had initially planned,and it rained the whole time we were there, but we had a blast anyway. Well, back to my initial point, I sat on the balcony of the room (we HAD to get ocean front room) and lol, since i smoke, and my best friend doesnt, i had to go out there to smoke. so i was out there quite a bit. i would jsut sit there, and think, staring out at the ocean. ..somehow, something changed. WHen I came home (i live in Illinois) i was calm, changed. But my overall favorite memory...was one night, around midnight, when the rain had stopped temporarily, and the moon was full, her and I walked down to the beach, and waded in the water a bit, talking of life, death, and everything in between. Looking up at the moon over the water was one of the most moving experiences in my life. Ive babbled enough now, just wanted to share.

Me and my husband and three daughters are planning a trip to Myrtle Beach in July. I cannot wait to go, I really could use a vacation. We went there last year and had a ball accept for the motel we stayed at. We stayed at the Budget Inn and it was terrible. We woke up with cockroaches crawling on the counters and in cups. It was so nasty I will never stay there again. This year we are staying at Tropic House Motel. We don't know anything about it either so if anyone does please e-mail me and give me the scoop on the place before I get there. Also, if you know of any nice places that are reasonable in price for future reference please let me know. Thanks!

We will be heading for MyrtleBeach in one week for our 6th year. We are a family of 6 and we always take a friend along. We have always rented from Condo-World in North Myrtle Beach. They have the best rates of any of the rental places and their condos are fantastic. Greatpeople work there and they treat you super. We enjoy Barefoot Landing and Broadway at the Beach and the uotlet stores on 501.So much to do and see in MB. I enjoy golfing with friends that also go each year, but we are finding that their rates are becoming outrageous. It costs as much for 6 rounds as it does for a membership for the year up here. Great places to eat are T-Bonz, Outback Steak House, and the Outrigger. My wife got gift certificates for T-Bonz and Outback for me as Christmas gifts! Cant wait to use them. We willeventually retire to the MB area. As soon as we arrive we will be making our reservations for 2000. Jack Armstrong

I have been to Myrtle Beach for seven of the last eight years. We always stay at Condotels at one Ocean Place. These are luxurious condos with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a full kitchen, a dining room, a living room, a full balcony, a washer and dryer, a dish washer, and daily maid service.....all in your own condo. It is very relaxing. Like moving your home to the Beach. I recommend to anyone who would like to be able to relax kind of peacefully during the day and be only minutes from thousands of things to do at night, and, just like any other place in the Grand Strand area it is only minutes from gobs of golf courses. I would highly reccomend this place to anyone. You get a GREAT place. As for eating. A couple of places have become paticular favorites of mine. My favorite restraunt of all time anywhere is T-Bones. Located South of Myrtle Beach about 10 minutes or so. It is very important to remember that it is T-BONES NOT T-BONZ. They have both places there and T-BONES is the one I am talking about! For seafood I have taken a sever loving to Drunken Jack's. It is SOOOOO GOOD! Other places I have enjoyed include Thouroughbreds, Rossi's, Dick's, Hard Rock, and All star Aports Cafe. Whatever your pleasure, Myrtle BEach is the best place I have ever traveled too, and trust me I have been a lot of places!

During August of 1998, My friends Heather, Ashleigh, and I went to a Third Eye Blind Concert at the House of Blues. Before going there however, we had a delightful dinner at Dick's Last Resort. The waiters were very interesting and one of them even gave my friend Heather their phone number. From there we went to the concert which was a lot of fun. Ashleigh got a taste of crowd surfing, and afterwards we got to meet the band. It was a great experience and I'm hoping to go back to Myrtle Beach in the Summer of 1999.

We stayed at the Crown Reef resort and were not pleased. They need to do someting about the plumbing. When you run the shower it causes the pipes to vibrate, it sounds like a drill. We actually thought someone was working on the place. By the way this was Feb into beginning of March 1999. We were on a golf package. The room was so dirty. There were even toenail clippings around the bed and something very disgusting on the carpet! Also roaches! I killed 4 baby ones and my husband didn't tell me till we got home (so I would'nt freak out)that he had seen full grown ones in the kitchen sink. They also only have three floors that are non-smoking. So it's really hard to get a non-smoking room. This is a really nice hotel but they better start cleaning the place better.

Hi I've been living in myrtle beach for 12 years now (or most of it) and Myrtle Beach is definitely, without a doubt, the best place to vacation to. The parks are incredible, so are the nightclubs, especially the Pavilion, 2001, oh the list goes on and on. For adult nightlife, dancing, and such you MUST go to 2001, a nightclub in North Myrtle Beach near Ultrazone Lazer Tag. For family fun, the BEST place in the entire tri-county area is Paradise Skating Rink, located next to the SuperWalmart. This may not seem like relative information to you, but there is only 1 walmart in myrtle beach, 1 in north myrtle beach, you figure it out. I can't stop myself when I go on and on about Myrtle Beach. If you are looking for shopping, DO NOT go to Barefoot Landing ($$$$!) though their theme is pretty nice- GO TO BROADWAY AT THE BEACH!!!!! This is the best part of Myrtle Beach; at one end you have IMAX, a movie theater with a 6 story screen, across from IMAX (a hop skip and a jump, literally. No cars in this zone allowed!) is a Putt-putt course that has it's own GIANT FIRE BREATHING dragon, Every tuesday they have a HUGE fireworks show, also Ripley's Aquarium (simply the best...period.) which has an entire mile of underwater tubing that you can see exotic aquatic life- AHHH! I can't stop typing! And there's a Hard Rock Cafe, a giant nightclub center called Celebrity Square, over 200 shops, and this is all at broadway at the beach! Next to broadway is THe Palace, Nascar Speed park (a themepark), Nascar Cafe, All-Star Cafe, Myrtle Square Mall, Myrtle Beach Convention Center, 2 Shopping centers, Barnes and Nobles Superstore, Toys R Us superstore. Well my hands are tired so I'll stop now. Thank you CP

And in my case...you may even meet someone really special. I went in the summer of 98. The Pavilion was a blast! We spent two evenings there...and we still didn't ride or see everything. A really good place to eat is Crabby Mike's!! I could go on forever and ever about how wonderful Myrtle Beach is....but you have to go to experience it for yourself.

OUr first family visit to myrtle beach was my first visit and that was in 1995. We had a wonderful time. I grew up in North Carolina and the beaches there then I moved to Md. Had not been down south for al least 14 years. Loved MB as soon as we arrived. One word of warning do not stay at the SeaMist. That was horrible. Ugly rooms, noise that security would not do anything about and so on. Our last visit we stayed at the Sand Dunes-very nice especially if you have children. The kids club gives parents a chance to relax!! The best places to visit in our opoinion is Barefoot Landing, Alabama Theater, Broadway at the beach and the NASCAR Cafe! Oh and for those of you who have ever been a server in a restaraunt you have got to go to DICK's Last Resort to eat, do not expect polite service or fancy dishes, this is the place for those who like to have fun and have a good sence of humor! For those of you that love seafood go to Benjamins Calabash so much food so little time! And the prices are great (compared to prices in Maryland and surrounding areas). I was so impressed with the area and the people that in a couple of years we will be moving there. July of this year (1999) will be our third trip and I can't wait and neither can our kids ages 9 & 4! Look out Mrytle Beach here we come again!

We stayed at Captains Quarters on Ocean Blvd. The staff was very helpful when I made reservations. The hotel had nice, clean rooms with daily maid service. We stayed for 5 nights during the "off season" for a very very reasonable rate with a 20% discount. The only bad comment I have is that the trade off for going during the off season is that your choice of things to do is limited. I would suggest to anyone going in and wanted to see some of the shows to make sure you go in on a Thursday, as the shows are only open on Friday or Saturday, if at all.

We have stayed at several places in Myrtle Beach over the Years. The Boardwalk on Ocean Blvd. was clean but not fancy. It was combined with a couple of other hotels so you had a choice of pools. Parking near your room was sometimes hard to find. The Serendipity Bed and Breakfast on 72nd Avenue was very nice and quiet. The rooms were well decorated and each had a private bath. Breakfast was fruits, fresh breads and bagels, cereal, juice, and fresh coffee. Heron Pointe Condos were very spacious, two or three bedroom (third bedroom was a loft) about a 10 minute walk to the beach. Complex had an indoor pool and hot tub that the kids enjoyed more than the ocean. Arcadian Dunes Condos were the most homey. Lots of windows, on-site restaurant, tennis courts Large bedrooms. Very quiet complex and from building #4 only a five minute walk to the ocean. Have a ball!

We are visiting Myrtle Beach this Summer ('99) for the first time. We are considering staying at the Beach Cove Resort or the Crown Reef Resort and was wondering which of these two resorts is the nicest. We were also wondering which has the better location. Any information you have on either of these resorts would be helpful. Thank you.

We will be visiting Myrtle Beach this summer ('99) for the first time. We have been looking at staying at the Beach Cove Resort or the Crown Reef Resort.

I am submitting this on behalf of an 83 yr. old neighbor that does not have computer access. Windsurfer Hotel I wanted to stay for two weeks, and got such great service I stayed for a little over three weeks. The rooms were very clean, (I stayed in the Annex) and all the people were very friendly and helpful. I even met the owner while I stayed, and both he and his wife couldn't have been friendlier. The rooms were of higher quality than those of other hotels I have stayed at, for a better price, and I would highly recommend The Windsurfer Hotel to anyone visiting Myrtle Beach. I enjoy walking...one or two miles a day, and found The Windsurfer close to everything I wanted to see. I found all the staff helpful in answering all questions I had about Myrtle Beach. I will be returning to The Windsurfer in May 99, and have made reservations already. Keep up the good work Windsurfer. Joan from Northern Virginia

Anyone have any information on the annual bike week held in Myrtle Beach. I believe it is around the first week or so in May. I am not talking about the "Black Bike Week", just the regular... I guess it would be the "Harley Week". I understand there were a lot of problems during the Black Week... I am not interested in getting into a discussion about this but I have heard that the merchants want to discontinue bike week and was wondering if this applies to all "Bike Week" functions or just the one that caused all the turmoil? If there is still a "Bike Week" being planned for '99, I would appreciate information as to the dates. Thanks Bill, crazydog@msinets.com

Let me tell you DON'T STAY HERE! we have 3 kids ages 4-4-5 and in the room we found a hyperdermic needle. we called down to the desk and they said they would get someone up to get it. we said not knowing what the needle was used for and not knowing if there could be something taht would hurt the kids we wanted another room. we had been in the room 1hr. they complained and said they needle would not hurt anybody etc. but when i told them to refund my money they found a room... they manager of the night was mad and said you did not need to move and mess another room up. in the new room the door locks did not work./ And get this the maid brought us back our own used towels.. we knew this because it had red color on it. never once did anyone say how sorry they were about the needle. and never once did someone say thank you for staying here.

We stayed at the Windsurfer which was very reasonable price and had a great pool (indoor and out) great staff. David's Landing was very reasonable priced too but they only have an outdoor pool and it gets pretty chilly out there(there across the street too) Jonathen Harbour is a great place to stay if you have a big group. They have all 2 room suites very big and a great pool. We are now going again and we were wondering about the Captains Quarters,or the Anderson Inn. Any info would be appreciated

3DWell I am a 15/f, I live in West Virginia and every year we make the 8 hour trip to Myrtle Beach. I have been going to MB since I was 2, the drive isn't very bad. Once we arive and get the key to our condo, we usually stay at Pelican's Landing, we go settle in the go to Captian Benjamines for dinner. We usually eat there at least 5 out of the 7 days we are there. One of our favorite things to do is head over to the outlet malls on 501 or Barefoot Landing. The putt putts are very entertaining, there is a wide varity to choose from. If it happens to rain one evening and we can't go for a walk on the beach we head over to the Briacliffe Mall and catch a movie. As always we will be going to MB again this year ( June 26-July 3 ). Our condo is located right across from Ocean Annies, for those of you who know where that is. I visited the Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood, and needless to say I was not impressed at all. The crowds were awful as were the prices. My alltime favorite thing would have to be Dixie Stamped or The Gatlin Brothers, both very entertaining! One wonderful thing about this years trip is I will be 16 and be able to go crusin' around without my parents and I can go check out things more to my liking. If you want any info about MB feel Free to E-mail me at, StaryGyrl@aol.com. See ya at the B*E*A*C*H!=20

I hadn't went to Myrtle Beach since 1980 and finally in 92' with family of three. First year went to Beachcomber (Nice small hotel and descent prices). One year went to Flagship (OK place not nothing to brag about) and next year went to Foxfire (don't really remember it). Since then, we have gone to the Ocean Plaza 1005 S. Ocean Blvd. Very nice hotel for a cheaper price. Very good prices at end of Aug. Pretty nice staff and nice hotel rooms. Indoor and outdoor pool. 2 hot tubs with indoor pool. Not to close to pavilion but a few blocks south of Family Kingdom. Very good location. Restaurant wise, we really like Grandma's Kitchen (close to pavilion). Good food and very nice people and very down home cooking. Very good prices for breakfast and lunch buffets. Another way to offset prices to have a good dinner at night is go to Sonic (drivein) on southend of Myrtle Beach or go to Godfather's pizza during week lunch buffet. They have all you can eat pizza and salad for a very low price. More expensive restaurants that are extremely good is River City Cafe (good burger place and peanuts you through on the floor); The Farm House (good home cooking little expensive but worth the try, antiques all around you while you eat and it's buffet style). Farmer's Daughter is another really nice restaurant, buffet styler, good home-style cooking for around $12 an adult. If your not into seafood to much but want to try it, there's a place toward North Myrlte Beach on the west side of the road (don't remember what it's called) but it's really good for around $12 adult. Calabash's are very expensive and my family isn't into the seafood thing for that much of a cost which is about $17-$19/person TOO MUCH MONEY. Two more good places are the Coutry Barn next to Waccamaw and Kirks Ice Cream Parlor across from mall at 21st Street. Myrtle Beach is our favorite place to go and people are so nice and friendly down there. E-mail me with any questions have at all and I'll answer them as good as I can. We go to MB once to twice a year. Paula

We live only two hours from MB. We go several times a year. The chamber of Commerce puts out a publication annually. I pick one or two up every year at the visitors center. The name of the publication is Stay & Play in the Myrtle Beach Area. It is fantastic. It has hotels and resorts listed in alphabetical order. Showing a picture of each one. There is usually a price list and a small lay out of the rooms. Most places have a toll free number to call for reservations and general information. Also most places now list there web site. I agree the Sea Mist has a lot lacking when it comes to there rooms. Most are small and stuffy. Some rooms are very damp inside. I must say the water park is great. I have stayed in may places from South Myrtle to North. Some of my favorite places are The Crown Reef, The Landmark, The Sandcastle South, The Yactsman, The Patricia Grand, Forest Dunes, The Patricia North, The Caravell, and The Long Bay Resort. It all depends on if I am taking a group of kids, and the ages of the kids. If I want to stay some where so I can walk almost every place I go, or if I am going just to enjoy the pools and the beach. Which is usually the case. I could go on and on but enough is enough. I love the beach. I always want to stay on the ocean front. I already have the 99 pubication of stay & play. I can't wait to check out the new places.

For a simple, neat and clean trip... . Start with staying at The Legends. Larry Young knows what he is doing! Moorland, Heathland, Oyster Bay and Marsh Harbor are all winners in the Legends group. I have not had the honor to play Parland (yet). The Heritage Club stands out as a must play each time. While you're in SC, might as well do yourself a favor and take on Tidewater.

Went to Surfside beach in June of 98. Surfside was very nice. Not nearly as croweded as MB. However, we rented a condo for 8 people and it was not at all what we expected. It was very large, but it was dark, out of date, and furnished from garage sales. We rented from Surfside Reality. We were very disappointed. The condo was not even cleaned upon our arrival. The pool was very nice, right on the ocean. We really enjoyed the uncrowded beaches there. We really are fans of the Outer Banks, NC and we will be going back there next year. We won't be returning to MB toooo commercialized!

Our family visited Mrytle Beach July 1995. We stayed at a 2 bedroom townshouse owned by some friends of ours. It was great. We are going back this year 7/17/99. While we are there we will be looking for a condo to invest in. This is the place we have chosen to retire at when we reach retirement age. Our teenage sons said to make sure you check out Wild Water and Wheels water park. They had a blast there. Also, to make sure you purchase a boogy board for the ocean. They also enjoyed that. If anyone knows of any condo's to rent in the Deerfield Plantation Complex Surfside Beach area we are looing for 2 more condos that have 2/bedrooms for family members who also want to go with us when we go in July 99. Please e-mail to my e-mail address. Thank you.

I love Myrtle Beach!! Went four times in 1998. Am planning on going back in Feb for my birthday and in July with friends. And I'm sure I'll be back in between those times, also. We stay at the Yachtsman. It is very nice. One of the cleanest I've seen. I enjoy shopping at the Gay Dolphin and Broadway at the Beach is fantastic!!! Fuddruckers has the best food!! Can't wait to see the ocean!!! 01/22/99

I HAVE BEEN VISITING MB FOR THE LAST SIX YEARS AND LOVE IT. I CANNOT GO A SUMMER WITHOUT GOING. WE STAY EVERY YEAR ON SHORE DRIVE AT THE NORTHERN END OF MB. IT IS QUITE BUT FUN. THERE IS OCEAN ANNIES AND THE SAND BAR. WE ARE LOCATED ON RESTURANT ROW AND ARE CLOSE TO BROADWAY AT THE BEACH AND BAREFOOT LANDING. MY FAVORITE PLACE TO GO IS TO DICK'S LAST RESORT. ANYONE WHO GOES TO MB MUST GO TO DICK'S. YOU'LL SEE WHY WHEN YOU GO. I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS WITH OUR RESERVATIONS WHICH ARE BOOKED THROUGH ENDLESS SUMMER VACATIONS/SLOAN REALTY. WE ALWAYS STAY IN A CONDO AND THE PRICE IS FROM $625 TO 525 FOR THE ENTIRE WEEK. WHERE ELSE CAN YOU GO FOR THAT PRICE. I LIVE IN NJ AND TO RENT A BEACH HOUSE AT THE LOUSY JERSEY SHORE IS AROUND $1500 TO $2000 A WEEK. TOTALLY NOT WORTH IT. I WOULD RECOMMEND ANYONE MB. ITS MY FAVORITE PLACE TO BE AND WHEN IM THERE I HATE TO COME HOME.

After a few days of research on the net, I found the Beach Cove Resort to be the best place for what I wanted at the most reasonable price. Unfortunately, when I called to make a reservation, I was told that I could not get the price advertised on the Web. The "correct price" was $14 more per night than what was posted. Over a 5 night stay, $14 more per night is worth about another nights stay. Back to the drawing board.

I visited mb last fall for a golf outing. The best place to eat was the sea captains house right on the beach. A place that i do not reccommend is Sam Sneads resturaunt. My wife and I waited 15 minutes just to get our cocktails! The management and staff seemed extremely unknowledgable and not very courteous as well. I ordered a prime rib medium rare and got it well done! But as I said, the Sea Captains house was definately a dining experience! Lucious crabcakes that just melt in your mouth. All in all, I wish they had a resturaunt like that in Ohio!!!

The Flying Machine Steak House had a wonderful New Years Eve Dinner and the oceanfront sports bar was a wonderful place to sit and have drinks after dinner. All of the food and service was exceptional. The staff were all extremely friendly and went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect.
