Myrtle Beach Vacation Resorts

By Timothy Sexton

Myrtle Beach Vacation Resorts
Myrtle Beach is a hot spot for college students looking for fun and sun during spring break. In the summer, families flock to the resorts along this stretch of the South Carolina coast to enjoy swimming and other attractions. Golfers flock to Myrtle Beach year-round, and many beach resorts cater to duffers looking to knock the little white ball around on some of the most scenic courses in the South.

Bar Harbor Motor Inn

Bar Harbor features several golf packages for area courses such as Quail Creek and Wild Wing Plantation. The rooms at Bal Harbor have private balconies that provide a close enough view of the ocean that the sound of the waves breaking on the beach can lull you to sleep while you sit on the terrace. An indoor pool allows you to swim even during the rain, and you can relax after a long day by floating down the long lazy river. Rooms have fully equipped kitchens; penthouse suites have a Jacuzzi tub. This hotel is the perfect spot to watch the fireworks that are launched every Wednesday night during the summer.
