Sandy Beach Oceanfront Resort

We really enjoyed our stay.

The pictures of the actual room were misleading. We were on the 3rd floor of the Magnolia building. EVERYTHING about that room was dated and needed repair or replacement. I decided to look online to find out why, when we book through a 3rd party (ie:Expedia), we would get a room like this. It sounds like it happens a lot. Maybe Expedia should post pictures of what the outdated rooms actually look like. The couch in the living room was stained and smelled. The bathroom door looked leke it had years of water damage as is was swelled on the bottom and needed to be replaced. The kitchen faucet leaked when on. We turned off the air conditioning because of the way it smelled, and even the hallway had a musty nasty smell. I was completely disappointed at the shape of the room in general. I would not recommend the hotel unless you book direct as I'm not sure what type od room you will get. One nice thing was the pool area and access to the beach. You will have to rent chairs and an umbrella if you want any shade. They are not part of the stay price. We also didn't mind the walk down the boardwalk, but if you have smaller children that need to walk, it may be a lot of walking.

Rooms need to be updated

The only negative is not enough handicap parking.

Very nice hotel. Very friendly staff and very clean. Someone was always mopping or vacuuming the floors and the elevator was always clean.

I've stayed at many places on the beach- this is one I'd happily stay at again. I have a handful of go-tos that I trust for overall cleanliness and experience. I'll add this to that list.

The building and facilities not too bad but as you walk into elevator you see old dirty hotel. Rooms are poorly cleaned, I had to clean it myself and when I wiped the coffee table white clothes was black from dust and dirt on it. I was misled for the fact that each unit is individually owned and the great reviews it has might be from better maintained units. Our angle suite didn't have bdrm window. Appliances dishes and everything in the kitchen were in very poor condition. I felt disgusted.

We loved our unit. It was perfect. The apartment had everything we needed. The ocean view was so lovely. Everything was spotless. We will definitely be back. I will say that going in late August/September after the kids went back to school was very peaceful, especially during the week. One more thing, make sure you get your unit through the resort. I think the bad reviews come from people who get caught up in booking non-updated units from absent apartment owners who use various sites to hook you. Please do yourself a favor by booking directly through the resort, as their rooms have been updated, and they can better help you. This was a wonderful stay for us, and we will be back!

Thank you for such a beautiful and relaxing stay visiting my daughter at Coastal Carolina

The room was nice, up to date, comfy beds
