Запазете го, ако You want a self-contained family resort compound where the kids can rotate between a waterpark, the beach, and a free made-to-order breakfast while you nurse a coffee.
Currents Waterpark is a legitimate draw with big slides and a splash pad
Free made-to-order breakfast (omelets!) and evening reception save a fortune for families
All-suite layout means parents can actually stay up after the kids crash
Бързо резюме: A chaotic, high-energy family factory that trades tranquility and pristine details for waterslides and free drinks.
Преглеждано от @Myrtlebeachfoodiebabe: I kicked off my summer staycation here and honestly, it was exactly what I needed. The suite was huge with a separate living area, and getting free drinks at check-in was the perfect start. You have to see the ocean view from the balcony—it's breathtaking!
Гост, който е бил тук, каза
The hype
Families love the pool complex and free food, but everyone hates the elevators and worn-out room details.
Reality check
The 'oceanfront' view is spectacular, but the bathrooms often smell of mildew and the furniture has seen better decades.
You have kids under 12 who need constant water-based entertainment
You refuse to pay for breakfast every morning
You want a resort 'compound' feel where you don't have to drive anywhere
Чистота и поддръжка
6
Housekeeping: By request only. Many guests report missed days or rushed service.
Bathroom hygiene: The biggest weak spot. Frequent reports of black mold in grout, hair in drains, and peeling tub coatings.
Maintenance: Showing its age. Peeling wallpaper, slow drains, and worn carpets are common complaints.
Linens & towels: Towels are often scratchy and in short supply at the pool. Bed linens are standard hotel grade but sometimes stained.
Odors & scents: Humidity is the enemy here. Rooms often have a lingering 'damp' or musty smell, sometimes masked by heavy cleaner.
Self-parking is in an uncovered lot and costs ~$12-20/night; Valet is ~$25
You must wear wristbands for pool access
The 'Evening Reception' is free well drinks and snacks, but the line gets long fast
Какво да пакувате
Patience for the elevators
Clorox wipes for the bathroom surfaces
Your own beach towels (resort ones run out fast)

“I would appreciate a high-floor suite (15+) away from the elevators to minimize atrium noise. A corner unit would be ideal if available.”

Съвети на инсайдъра
✨
Skip the main elevator bank during peak times; sometimes the service elevator is opened for guests, or just take the stairs if you're on a lower floor (good luck).
✨
The 'Coastal Grill' breakfast line is shortest before 8:30 AM.
✨
Walk north up the beach to the Apache Pier for a quieter fishing spot and live music.
5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The 'lazy river' is actually at the older Splash! complex nearby, not the new Currents waterpark right at the hotel base.
💡The sofa beds are notoriously uncomfortable—thin mattresses with bars that dig into your back.
💡You can hear the 'ding' of the elevators from rooms three doors down.
💡The 'resort fee' covers 'tennis court time' that 99% of guests never use.
💡Black Drum Brewing has a surprisingly good local beer list (40 taps) and is way better than the typical hotel bar.
