The property is beautiful and the staff was great at check-in. There was a little mixup with our villa but we were upgraded to another villa and everything worked out perfectly. The property is surround by lots of stores and resturants, and it's about a 15 minute drive to Myrtle Beach. We would definately stay here again.

We weren’t able to use some the amenities because of renovation but the outdoor pool was very nice. The grounds were nicely kept up and the location wasn’t bad. We didn’t have to travel very far for Broadway at the beach, outlet and the mall. The room itself was very clean and had everything we needed. The washer and dryer are definitely a perk. We would stay here again.
