The Oceanfront Litchfield Inn

8/10 Good

"Oceanfront Litchfield isn’t a 5star facility, but they are a very well kept and nicely remodeled facility. We stay at an array of hotels in our travels and this August overnight stay was very nice. The room was extremely clean - no smells, no mold, no faulty AC… The pool was maintenanced daily+. The lobby and staff were better than most in the area of which we are very familiar with. Our ocean/pool view from our lower 200s room w/o a balcony was fine. I think other than a hefty price tag, our only ‘qualm’ would be the malfunctioning pool gate. We would totally recommend this hotel for any length of stay."

Crown Reef Beach Resort and Waterpark

8/10 Good

"We had a great family stay during our trip to Myrtle Beach. The hotel was very family-friendly, and my kids especially enjoyed the pool area. The convenient location near the beach made it easy for us to go back and forth without having to drive or carry everything a long distance. Being so close to both the pool and the ocean was one of the best parts of our stay. The rooms and hotel amenities worked well for our family, and overall, we felt comfortable during our visit. However, there were a couple of areas that could be improved. Seating around the pool was limited, especially during the busier parts of the day, so it was sometimes difficult to find a place to sit while the kids were swimming. The check-in process was also longer than expected, and the check-in office was located across the street from the actual hotel. This was a little inconvenient, especially after traveling with children and luggage. Despite those issues, we enjoyed our stay and would consider returning because of the family-friendly atmosphere, enjoyable pool, and excellent beach access."

Holiday Inn Club Vacations Myrtle Beach Oceanfront by IHG

8/10 Good

"Traveled with family (including 16 and 20 year old "kids"). Property was well maintained and nicely updated, and everyone we interacted was very nice and friendly (except for the bartender at the outdoor bar, who seemed to hate his job). Just be aware that it's not really a hotel, meaning the service and perks aren't quite the same, although you'll definitely still get the hotel prices for food and drink. Be prepared - they'll try to sell you at check in on attending a 90 minute seminar/tour to get you to buy in as a unit owner. We also thought it was weird that there were typically very few staff around. For example, I didn't see a single staff member by the pool until it was nearly closing time our last night. There is also a helicopter pad that runs tourist flights located very close by. Meaning that while you're sitting by the pool you'll not only get the occasional jet taking off rattling the windows as it takes off, but a non stop stream of helicopters buzzing overhead reminiscent of a Vietnam war movie. Not very relaxing. It's a nice place (room was spacious and nice) and like I said, staff was helpful and professional, just be aware it's a little different vibe."

Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and space. Such an easy walk to the beach and the pool. It was difficult to keep everything from getting so sandy, but that is life at the beach. We had some issues with the TVs. The one in the bedroom did not work and the one in the living room periodically cut off and we had to wiggle wires to get it to turn back on. This was really only brought to our attention because it rained some and we had to stay indoors. We loved our stay and will be back!"

DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Myrtle Beach Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"The accommodations were excellent, and my family had a wonderful vacation. The only downside was that it was very humid by the beach. After staying for two nights, the bedding felt damp. Other than that, we were very satisfied with everything."
