Top hotels for family vacations in Myrtle Beach

By Robin Gallagher

I love family vacations at Myrtle Beach because there are endless things to keep my kids busy: miniature golf, arcades, amusements, indoor play areas, and water parks to mention a few … oh yeah, and the beach! There are also beautiful golf courses where my husband can sneak away, and I can hit the Tanger Outlets for upscale shopping at discount prices in the evenings.

In addition to being jam-packed with activities for adults and kids, the area is affordable for families who want to spend quality time together with out spending a ton of money. Here are some of my favorite places to eat, sleep and play on the cheap:

Myrtle Beach hotels
Camelot by the Sea and Patricia Grand Resort:
With indoor and outdoor pools and a lazy river for family floating, these properties are great choices for family vacations. Plus, they’re within walking distance to popular attractions and restaurants. The hotels are running promotions for 20% off a 3-night stay through the end of August.

Bay Watch Resort and Atlantic Breeze Ocean Resort
These Myrtle Beach hotels are located in the beautiful and more serene North Myrtle Beach area. What I liked best about them: The option to have full kitchens and multiple rooms for various bed times. And not to be outdone, they’re also offering a sale for 20% off a 3-night stay through the end of August.

Marina Inn at Grande Dunes
When golf is a priority for my husband, we like this four-star resort on the greens and the water. Plus, save 25% on a 3-night stay through September 9.
