With private cabanas, swim-up bars, and condos overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, it’s clear why this place is called the Grand Strand’s most luxurious hotels.
Millions of people visit the Myrtle Beach area each year to enjoy the beaches, golf courses, restaurants and many attractions. This means that many of them are looking for a place to live.
But unless you’re prepared to shell out a lot of cash, these hotels can be far from popular vacationers.
Room rates for most of these hotels range from $362 to over $1,000 per night.
The Travel, an online website that focuses on vacation destinations and industry news, published its top five hotels in the Myrtle Beach area on Wednesday. The groups took hotels.
