"Fantastic Beach Front Resort"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
The resort is located in south central Myrtle Beach, apx. 10 miles from the center of town and located directly on the beach. The lobby area is very spacious with adjacent restaurants. The hotel offers conference center space for an additional charge. Indoor outdoor pools and beach access. Various room types are available from standard single/doubles to condos with multiple bedrooms. Condo units offer fully equipped kitchens to include dishes, flatware, glassware, utensils, coffee maker, stove, microwave and refrigerator. The are very nicely decorated and clean.The screened in porch had an area to hang wet bathing suits and overlooked the natural areas. Six passenger golf carts are available to drive guests throughout the resort. Full service restaurant offer breakfast, lunch and dinner in season. Breakfast buffet is a standard full hot breakfast for an additional charge. The hotel offers a Children's Program for all ages. Centrally located near the Boardwalk and Family Kingdom Amusement Park. I highly recommend this resort for convention groups, and groups that require meeting space.

"Not worth the money we paid."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
The location of the hotel is great since it is right on the beach but the rooms were old, dirty, there was dried up urine on the toilet seat when we checked in, there were only hand towels and wash clothes no bath towels. We requested some twice and no one ever gave us any. The sliding door to the balcony was so hard to open and close. The staff wasn't very friendly when checking in and we were charged a resort fee per person after already paying $460 for the room. Definitely not worth the money.

"Will not be returning."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
Upon checkin we found out that checkout time was 10am. I have never seen anything earlier then 11 at a hotel. Asked for a late check out and was told to ask later. Asked to PAY to just add on another night, was told to ask later. Asked the following day, same answer. Asked this morning (our departure day) and was told no, even though online shows available rooms with a two night minimum (the extension would make our stay three nights). Then was told there's no one else to talk to and no manager on duty until late this afternoon. If this were the case why couldn't I speak with a manager tester afternoon? Room was fine, but hallways largely smell of weed smoke even though this is supposedly a non smoking property. Sign on the balcony states no smoking but if you go out to the pool many people are out on balconies smoking. I understand not being able to control your guests but maybe take care of the ones who want to pay to stay with you longer? I've currently been on hold with their support desk for 45 minutes, because there doesn't seem to be a single individual on property that actually wants to speak to their guests. We won't be back here or to another Westgate. I had heard bad things about the Orlando properties and now I see why we need to stay clear!

Overall Score3.0/ 5
Room was clean. Didn't get a king bed like we booked, got double queen instead. Shower not made for tall people, had to bend down under shower head to wash hair. They never came in to clean the room. Hair dryer Didn't work, had to request another one. They were working on something in the building, woke us up right around 9 am with the noise. Toilet/pipes made horrible sounds around two am a couple times. Some staff members were super friendly, but others weren't.

"Terrible! It was not the resort's fault it was EXPEDIA'S."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
Do not book your resort through Expedia or any of their affiliates They overbooked did not have the room we reserved. The Resort gave us what they had and said they would give us a refund. EXpedia and its affiliate has NOT given us a refund in a month and they are impossible to get by phone (2 3hr waits for call backs with no help). We finally got a cryptic email saying that a "ticket" has been opened. When I asked what did that mean I have yet to receive a response and am truly hopeless about ever getting a refund even though the property manager ok'd it. Don't book through EXPEDIA. They could care less about service.

Overall Score2.0/ 5
The hotel is dirty, there were very few time you'd find towels at the pool without asking for them and even then you'd wait to get them. They were under construction and our room looked right out at it, I believe the rooms with that ugly of a view should have been ask if they'd like to up grade to an ocean view, Yes for sure we would have.

This hotel is not worth the price we paid for the rooms. Only one elevator worked and my room floor was damp.

I expect when I pay over $150 for a night the rooms should be nice along with the hotel.

"Not as Advertised."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
They had none of the pools available due to construction and there was not a single thing on their site stating this. Honestly done staying at Westgate properties everywhere. I have had issues with them in Myrtle Beach and Florida now and really am just done with them. On top of the fact they only had one elevator working and when I checked out and the elevator stopped working, my girlfriend was stuck on the floor of our room and they would not let me go up and help her with her bags. So she had no elevator and they would not let me go help her. Honestly disgusted by Westgate all together.
