The rooms were very nice but the bathrooms need a lot of help. There is no counter space in the bathrooms. You have a 30" vanity with a sink the size if a cereal bowl. You have enough space and could change out the vanity top with a longer one so you can place things on there.

Great location. Walking distance to Main Street of North Myrtle Beach. Pool area crazy busy and loud. They don't monitor amount of people or kids in the jacuzzi tubs. Awful smell of garbage directly by the entrance to the elevators in the registration / unloading area. Hallways smelled of Marijuana at times,even though there's not supposed to be any smoking on the property. Limited menu at restaurants. Rooms have dated furniture. Minimal water pressure in the bathroom sink. However on the good side....rooms did come fully stocked with all the kitchen items a family would need for a lengthy stay. They offered plenty of garage / covered parking for free across the street. They have a quiet sandy area adults can sun bathe and lay out in lounge chairs that has a small bar. Easy access to the beach. They do offer several amenities. Overall opinion is Avista is a lower budget resort that's good for families with young kids. I'd recommend adult couples with no kids stay elsewhere.

I traveled with a group of only adults (age 30's-40's) and we stayed 5 nights. That being said- This resort is a great spot for families with children; but perhaps not the best choice if your group is adults only. The location is great! Very close to lots of restaurants and shopping and other points of interest (Barefoot Landing). Quick access to the beach. The on-site restaurant is actually quite good for an easy lunch. Aside from being overwhelmed with child-energy...there were some things that I was disappointed with. Biggest one: no bathrooms in the pool area. You have to take the elevator up to the lobby and use the bathroom there. So inconvenient, and with all the children there? And adults drinking? Its like they are asking you to pee in the pool. I think that was the biggest issue. I have never been to a pool that didn't have a restroom/locker room near by. There were other small annoying issues with check-in and with certain things being broken/power going out. The parking deck across the street was super crammed with tight spaces- you have to be real careful in there. We all had a great time and made the most of our vacation. If I were to stay at Avista again, maybe it would just be for a shorter trip. I would recommend this resort for families with children.
