Getting There

Closest Airport

The nearest airport is Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR)—just about 3 miles away. You can land, grab your bags, and be sitting by the pool or dipping your toes in the sand within 15–20 minutes.

Ease of Access

Getting to the resort is a breeze. Whether you’re flying into MYR or road-tripping from elsewhere in the United States, you’ll find it’s well-marked and easy to navigate, tucked just off South Ocean Boulevard. The short drive from the airport means no long transfers or confusing detours.

Check-In & Check-Out Process

Check-in is at 4:00 PM, and check-out is 10:00 AM. The front desk is staffed by friendly team members who will walk you through everything and give you a map of the grounds. A credit card is required for incidentals, and you’ll be offered a quick rundown of on-site activities and services.
