You wont go wrong with Beach Colony, they are taking this pandemic seriously, keeping things as clean as possible. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The rooms are nicely furnished and very comfortable.

Hated it! Would give a zero if I could ... the pictures online are fake!!! We couldnt allow the children to play on the floor. We walked in and looked around and left. Front desk doesnt answer the phone and there is 1 person at a time working. You cant pull in the driveway bc there are so many people parked there. You have to park on 3 or 4th floor take 2 elevators to the top 10 floors. We waited 23 minutes in 100degree weather to get into the 1st elevator. The 2nd elevators floor was flooded. The room smelled like 200 year old must and the ac was terrible. The rooms were 200+ a night for a studio. This place is not recommended.

The location, pools, restaurant and staff (especially at the restaurant... She was AWESOME! She made my grandchildren feel so special!) and the studio condo were GREAT! I only wish I didnt have to go through walkways and 2 different elevators to get to my room or car. The walkways definitely need to be remodeled! Those are really the only complaints that I have. Oh, the arcade had a few games that took our tokens and need forks in the room. Overall it was nice. They seriously have really great staff! Ill definitely be back!

Ive stayed here for 2 weeks with my boyfriend and my 10-month baby due to issues with our apartment.I cannot even begin to express the sincerity of Eric from the front desk and the situation we are in. He has been so helpful between towels and toilet paper and all my questions and concerns and HOW THIS MAN WENT OUT OF HIS WAY to print off my school assignments for me and talking to me and calming me down and ridding my worries of the stresses our family has been through. Thank you Eric and Im sorry I couldnt give you more than a doctor pepper Also to the other front desk lady that gave me quarters for the laundry mat (ONSITE!) I hope you enjoyed those tide pods as a thank you. And to the other front desk lady who made my baby laugh... Youre amazing. The staff here is just so nice and so wonderful... I hate to leave but we miss our apartment and our way of life. This 2 week staycation couldnt have been any easier without the staff here thats been so helpful, understanding and patient.The view is amazing, the bar is clean and smells nice (better than other bars in myrtle beach) the pools and lazy river are WARM even when it was cold.Guys. I cant tell you how amazing this place is. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!!! Ill miss yall.Just a tip... The luggage carts are not just for luggage. Grocery trips were SOOO much easier!!

My son got bed bugs and all the resort wanted to do was move me from a ocean front to a ocean view because it had a washer to wash everything I own. I had to get a new car seat and pack n play because I couldnt was those. I will never come here again. I paid for a ocean view and received bed bugs a down grade in a room and laundry duty on my vacation. And I almost forgot the manager didnt a discount for our bug infested room either

The stay was great.The rooms were clean, spacious and has a kitchen, 2 bathrooms and an amazing view of the beach. It wasn’t a far drive from the boardwalk and you can walk down to the beach right through the pool area. You had to go down and request towels and the rooms aren’t cleaned until after you leave due to the corona virus but overall we had an amazing time. Also the pools were very clean and there’s even a toddler pool for the babies in the bunch. We will be booking another stay soon.

I loved my entire experience here. Check in was quick and easy, directions around the property were well explained. The parking garage was easy exit/entry. My room was clean and beautiful and well maintained throughout my entire stay. I was there during February so I wasn’t really able to take advantage of all amenities but feel the property as a whole really has a lot to offer and what I did see of the grounds seemed beautifully maintained. Will definitely return there in the future

Went back and tried again, giving the benefit of the doubt, after a bad experience last year. I am happy to revise my rating based on the experience that we had this May. Our unit, a three bedroom oceanfront deluxe, was absolutely lovely. The resort staff were all friendly and very accommodating. Everyone was extremely pleasant and helpful. The value with the resort as far as unit rates, drink cost at the lounge, and food at the cafe was all exceptional. the only reason I am giving four stars instead of five is because some of the amenities which are presented on the website, were not available. They were not available my last stay either so they should probably think of revising their advertising if these options do not exist anymore. Also, the inside common areas of the resort could stand some TLC to make them more presentable. The outside grounds and pool area however are absolutely lovely. All in all we had a wonderful stay and will absolutely go back.

The place was old and aesthetically struggled. My real problem was with our room being dirty. The trash had not been cleaned out, dead bugs in the bathroom, cigarettes on the balcony and stray pieces of food on the floor. The carpet was dirty and needed to be replaced and the bathroom needed a major reno. The staff was very nice though and the pools and aracde were a hit. Our ocean view was terrible, which we knew we were taking a risk on. I would not want to go back.

I stayed in unit 1502. The grounds around the several pools are great. Ocean views are great. Only one pool was open for use. There were signs displayed that said pools closed for the season. That was ok with me. My room was worn and dated but a comfy bed. The room was clean. Kitchen: had 1 wine glass, no paper towels, no cookie sheet and the fridges bottom shelf had no glass. I found this out when the wine bottle I sat on the “supposed shelf” wasn’t there and my glass fell into the vegetable tray below.The reason I rated such a low rating was, Myrtle Beach has been a COVID19 hotspot and I was assured masks were mandatory for all staff and guests. That has not been the case. Staff walk around with no mask, some guests wearing no mask. I’ve been taking the stairs a lot.

Pretty nice hotel, a great experience for me and my family especially due to the COVID 19 situation it was still really fun. The bar was nice and had a variety of flavors of flavors. For a hotel that took 10 hours to arrive at it was worth the drive, best family vacation :).

Review №19

Booked this hotel because it has an indoor pool. Which I stated during booking, but it wasnt until check in when I asked where it was located that they stated it was closed. Also the process for obtaining a towel to use at the pool needs more thought, no one wants to wait in the check in line for a towel.

Lets start by noting that we drove from Maryland to this resort and checked in after midnight. Immediately entering the room, there were several water bugs that scattered around the room, including the ceiling (I have pics). I went down to the front desk to report the bugs. The associate was very apologetic and offered another room which I requested to check first; she offered 2 rooms to check. The 1st room was on the 18th floor, the next room was on th 10th floor. Entered the 10th floor room, with noticable small bugs on the bed (more pics to view)!!! At this point, Im dead tired and completely irritated from walking the long halls and elevator rides in the middle of the night. Remaining as calm as possible, I went back to the desk to review 2 more rooms. My teens and I split up and settled on the 16th floor room which had caulk exposing small amounts of mold and paint peeling off the tub, stains on the carpet and a broken refrigerator handle. Not the vacation stay we imagined due to cosmetics but we had to make the best of it. Thank goodness we only stayed the weekend. The grounds and rooms need tremendous updating. I will be glad to share pics with hotels.com, but not publically. I will not stay at this location until upgrades are made.

Review №27

This resort needs a lot of upgrades.Starting with the parking deck. It’s super small and hard for 2 cars to come in and out at once. Next, the walk ways had trash on the grounds.My family and I stayed in the Oceanfront King Executive Suite and honestly, the motel 6 would have been better. It was so raggedy and out dated. The TVs were from the 80s and 90s with the big back on them and had cords all over the place (which could start a fire). The tables were scuffed up and dented. The bed was hard. The corners of the walls had dirt build up, peeling paint and holes.I’m choosing the give this resort 2 stars because the staff was friendly and there was good snacks in the vending machine.

Almost perfect. Wonderful room, fantastic price. Beautiful views. Wonderfully decorated. Beginning of the week bartender was fabulous (Monday). Bathroom could have been cleaner, left over hair from someone else originally clogged the drain.One of the pools was closed during our stay, so was stuck with unruly children jumping in and out of the pool with toys and unable to get away. Limited selection of food in the bar (no hot dogs the entire week!). Dotz ice cream as advertised not open, yet ... and because offseason tiki bar not open.Still 100% recommend and will be going back!

Nice ocean view room! Unfortunately the restaurant service was bad. We arrived and went to have dinner but the little bar/restaurant was so crowed we had to go elsewhere to eat.Staff at check in were friendly!Pool areas were nice and its a short walk to be right on the beach!!Room was ok.....could use the carpets cleaned. When you walk on the carpet and your feet are dirty...not good .

Pro: ocean front room.Con: poor house keeping. Popcorn all over the floor, you could tell the floor had not been vacuumed.Worse con: there was a bowl of something in the microwave that had been there so long it had mold in it.. we called the front desk and the man that came was very apologetic and cleaned the microwave and took the dirty bowl out..(it wasnt his fault)Beach Colony really needs to hire better housekeepers, especially with Covid going on. Ive attached a picture of what was in the microwave

This place is in a great location where the beach is not very crowded at all. The outdoor pools, lazy river, and indoor pool, as well as racquet ball are wonderful amenities.Our unit was nice to stay in. It was very clean and we were able to sleep 8 comfortably without anything being too crowded. All staff was very friendly.Our experience with the housekeeping was quite poor. Our trash was not taken out very often, and we had a couple days where a housekeeper didnt come at all. On the days where we saw the housekeeper, they never had clean towels or wash cloths to give us. They were very good about getting those things to us when they got them later in the day, but the fact that we couldnt get towels very quickly was a problem.Parking is also pretty tight for larger vehicles, but that is to be expected. Do NOT bring a large pickup truck or SUV unless you want a rough time parking in the garage.Overall it was a good stay for an affordable price. The housekeeping had some issues but again, it was a good experience overall.

The appartment has everything you need including washer and dryer. The majority it looks outdated and dirty in the outside including the elevator and hallway. In the entrance when doing the checking there was a huge cockroach entering into the building. The beds were terrible uncomfortable. The employees were nice. Sadly there were many guess smoking marijuana, I couldnt enjoy the balcony without breathing marijuana.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay and agreed that if we were to return to Myrtle Beach we would stay here again. The room was fairly outdated, but very clean other than some staining on the shades and couch, and some rusting on the closet wall in the bathroom, not a big deal to us though. The view from the 19th floor was breath taking! My only complaints are to do with house keeping, while the constant return multiple times during the day to clean our room may seem nice to some, for us it wasnt. We told house keeping we were all set 9 out of 10 times they would knock and still on some days would return more than once. On our last day we had late check out at 6pm and house keeping knocked on our door 4 times! My boyfriend and I were also sleeping once during the afternoon and didnt wake up for the housekeeping knock so they entered the room and cleaned while we were sleeping, I felt very uncomfortable with that but I let it go. Also we got locked out of our room on the last day because it wasnt recognized that we had late check out even though we told the front that we had the 6pm check out when we signed the paperwork. One last thing I would add in is that our bed was pretty uncomfortable, we had a kind size mattress that was very flat and hard and what seemed to be two different sized box springs under it, there was also a metal end sticking out from my side of the bed that I would run into often. All in all, it was a great trip and we would stay here again, minor annoyances aside it was a great deal and nice room size on a good floor. Freddie and Virginia were both very nice, and quite helpful!

My family reserved a total of 6 rooms to include 2 and 3 bedroom condos. I personally stayed in the Penthouse suite room 2208. It was a 3 bedroom 2 bath with an oceanfront view. The balcony was very refreshing. The room decor was good compared to other rooms I visited. There was dirty laundry left on the washer from previous guests and also a dirty filter in the coffee maker. Easy mistake but not not resolved promptly. Linen on one of the beds was soiled/stained, we reported it to housekeeping and they took it for cleaning but one was never retuned. When mentioned to front desk we received a thin cover that was not comparable to the blanket taken. Overall the staff was friendly, amenities were plentiful and it was a good stay for the price. With that being said I would stay again for the price.

I was at beach colony resort the 4th of July weekend. The rooms were nasty, countertops had sugar and jelly all on them, dishes were dirty, bathroom was nasty had dirty qtips in bathroom and urine all around the commode on floor and the pull out couch had bottlecaps, paper and used condoms under the chair. They bought in 3 house keepers to clean and they did not want too they were cursing and mad, I asked them out. Went to the front desk and was switched to aAnother room. I had a 2 bedroom and a pullout. I was not happy at all. I have been there 5 or 6 times never this. DISGUSTING!

We visited Beach Colony Resorts in late August. As I understand it, each unit is separately owned so rooms will vary on decor, amenities and updates. We stayed in room 503. At first the room smelled terrible. We quickly realized it was because the carpet was wet and as it dried the smell went away. We had a gorgeous beach front view and although dated, the room was perfect for a 4 day/3 night mini vacation. The kids had an absolute blast in the pools and on the beach which has direct access from the resort. There is an outdoor bar and music with plenty of sunbathing loungers. We saved money by cooking breakfast and lunch in our room. The food at the resort is so-so. Its a bit overpriced for the quality. The check in is horrible. The wait is long and it seems that their computers need updating. (Do not curse or be nasty with the staff. They are doing their jobs. We saw that as we were checking in and honestly, its uncalled for.) Overall, we had a great time for a reasonable price.

Review №87

From my experience from this resort, here’s what I’ve gathered:The cons: Personally, I’d to begin with what I believe to be negative about my experience. The main issue that I am concerned with, is the state of the accommodations. From what I hear (but I cannot confirm if this is true or not), the rooms are timeshares (different rooms can belong to different people). However, it appears me and my family had gotten the short end of the stick with our original room. The inside of the room (at the least), was unpleasant. The bathroom nearest to my room appeared fine (other than a few cracks), however the bathroom nearest the room of my relatives had a cigarette burn on the bathtub, smears of an unknown substance on the kitchen sink, and the washer and dryer were in the same room (without a door to separate them from the main bathroom)! In the living room, it was worse. It overall just had a old look to it and there was what appeared to be a dried up blood stain on the armchair! Not to mention the hole in the wall covered up by a not-so-easily-convinent painting and the non-functioning door to the balcony. The kitchen area was just pitiful. The room as a whole was obviously not meant for a tall person. I myself sometimes wondered if I could fit into a certain part of the room, and God forbid a person above six feet from staying here. My bedroom was quaint and also did not escape the onslaught of the many cracks and crevices of the room. One looked as though it if it were just ready to invite a cockroach into a *spacious* new home! The bed was about as comfortable as sleeping atop Snoopy’s doghouse and I awoke with a stiff neck. The day after arriving, we were promptly moved to a new room by the staff (who fortunately, are not as bad as the room was). The new room was much better than the first one, though because it had the same layout as the first one, it was still a bit short and there was an unknown and what appeared to be sticky grime covering the top of my bathroom. It reminded me of a certain bodily fluid and it repulses me when I think about it.The pros: Now of course, not all was bad during my experience here. The staff here are extremely friendly and are willing to help you out in anyway they can. I give a heartfelt thanks to the persons at the front desk, who helped us move to another room. This is one reason why I believe the cons of my experience to not be not mainly attributed to their actions, but to whomever is running these timeshares. They were even nice enough to give us free breakfast. Which leads me to another thing. Breakfast (and just the food in general) is delicious. Coming from the first night, I expected a similar quality of that experience reflected onto the food. However, that was not the case, and the food ended up being better than what I’ve had at most brand hotels. The Friday Fish Fry was also delectable. You’ll end up paying around $10, but it is very much worth it. They will give you a meal consisting of fried flounder, french fries, hush puppies, and coleslaw. If that enough does not satisfy you, they’ll give you unlimited fried flounder on top of it! Not to mention the overall quality of the food could rival some restaurants. I’d like to give appreciation to Mr. Van and Mr. Courtney for (respectively) cooking breakfast and the fish fry. The location at the beach is also a bonus and the number of pools (whirlpools included), is impressive.Overall, I’d say this resort will get the job done for a simple vacation. The staff seem to have a notion of what they’re doing and the location has a fair amount of amenities. However, I do have some suggestions. For the rooms, (for the future) I’d recommend setting some sort of standard before the room is rented out to just anybody. Perhaps a standard where a good majority of people wouldn’t have many drawbacks to letting their families stay in there (like having a properly cleaned room with few to no holes/major cracks). Also, perhaps it may be just me, but I feel as though the rooms could be a bit more tall-friendly. Thank you for reading.

Pros: The rooms were very clean and nicely furnished. Next to the living room there was a balcony with our ocean front view. Having such close access to the beach is great. The back area of the hotel was very lively with the live DJ, pools, and hammocksCons: the walls seem to be thin by the room door/bathroom cupboard because people in the hallway could be heard talking. People in my room got woken up around 5am because we could hear a group of people noisily going into the room next to ours

Went here for a beach getaway over the weekend. The room we stayed in was pretty close to being a dump. The mattresses were as hard as a rock, the comforters were paper thin, and the bathroom door would not shut. All attempts to call the front desk from the room went unanswered. We will not be returning.

Previous resort that I was at were having major issues with my condo so we got moved to this resort. Had the 3 bedroom beach front penthouse. It was kind of on the smaller side but still roomy. Was more upscale than forest dunes where we were first. A lot of amenities on location. 3 pools plus lazy river and right on the ocean.

Great view and access to the beach but the bathroom needed to be updated and cleaned more.

Charges to watch for..IQ link fee $3.75, Booking Fee $14.70, Resort Fee $18.30, Credit Card Convienience Fee $8.07. Out the door was roughly $350 per night for a 2 bedroom ocean view, not ocean front..

Housekeeping was not up to par in the 1 bedroom condo, and a little outdated.

Wonderful time. From the suite to the conveniences. The resort is amazing. I went to the beach daily. Jacuzzi, pool, lazy river all were accessible. Fitness center was small but efficient. Close proximity to stores and restaurants a huge plus. Although there is no shuttle from the airport easy to get rental or cab. The suite is full of everything you need - pots and pans, cups, bowls, microwave, refrigerator and stove. Beautiful patio with chairs. The executive suite is perfect if you need to have a lot of space. It can fit up to 6 people. You wont be disappointed!

We used Elliott Realty to book our Sunday to Sunday stay and found room 703 to be very accommodating with an oceanfront view; right above the kiddy-pool. If you want to do laundry, bring $2 to wash and $1.50 to dry in quarters. There is no change machine. The saltwater pools and lazy river are nice too. Needs a kid friendly indoor play area on rainy days, for toddlers though. Parking garage is not big enough or height accommodating to trucks or vehicles with luggage toppers. Thanks Elliott Realty...if the price is right, well stay here again! #elliottrealty #beachcolonyresort

Great place to relax. Close to all the family fun attractions. Management is very good at their customer service. Room is clean and nicely decorated. I will be back.
