Our Picks — Myrtle Beach
Grande Dunes (marina area)
An upscale marina-side retreat that feels more like a Mediterranean-inspired resort than a typical beach hotel, with a serene setting away from the Boardwalk crowds. It stands out for its spa-and-wellness focus, extensive on-site activities, and a private beach area for easy Grand Strand downtime.
Downtown / Myrtle Beach Boardwalk area (oceanfront)
A modern, oceanfront all-suites hotel that’s especially popular with travelers who want fresh design, strong value, and walkability to central Myrtle Beach sights. Many rooms emphasize sweeping Atlantic views, and the resort-style pool scene makes it easy to spend full days on property.
Downtown / Myrtle Beach Boardwalk area (oceanfront)
A polished, condo-style oceanfront stay ideal for travelers who want more space and in-room kitchens while keeping the beach right outside the door. The atmosphere is calmer than some mega-resorts, but you still get the pool-and-sun-deck energy people come to Myrtle Beach for.
Downtown / Myrtle Beach Boardwalk area (north end, oceanfront)
A sleek, high-rise oceanfront property known for roomy suites that suit families and longer stays without giving up resort perks. With both indoor and outdoor pools plus on-site bars, it’s a strong pick for shoulder-season trips when weather can be unpredictable.
Grande Dunes (north Myrtle Beach area, oceanfront)
A top-tier villa resort for travelers who want the reliability of Marriott service paired with condo-style space and beachfront access. It’s especially appealing for groups and extended stays thanks to the multiple-pool setup, on-site dining, and the quieter, upscale Grande Dunes setting.
The Market Common / Myrtle Beach State Park area (oceanfront)
An oceanfront extended-stay favorite with suite layouts and kitchenettes that make longer beach trips simpler and more affordable. Its south-end location near Market Common is a plus for travelers who want dining and shopping options that feel less touristy than the central strip.
