Caribbean Resort?

My fiance and I are planning an August honeymoon to Myrtle Beach. It will be our first time in the area and we are considering Caribbean Resort. Does anyone know if this is a nice hotel? Or any other suggestions? We are in our early 20s and just looking for a clean, comfortable hotel.

Caribbean Resort?

We stayed at the Caribbean the last two years and loved it. They are consistently ranked 8 or 9 out of all MB hotels here at Trip Advisor, and deserve it. Clean rooms, nice staff, great central location (very close to Broadway at the Beach). The Sea Captain%26#39;s House restaurant next door is great, esp. the breakfast buffet.

Caribbean Resort?

Well first-off ...Congradulations!!

I%26#39;ve stayed at the Caribbean a couple of times and didn%26#39;t have any problems. As cmandd said the Sea Captains House is right beside it and servers really good food. They also have a huge spotlight that shines out on the beach at night (great for walking down there at night)

Another great thing is that your right at the end of Myrtle Beach, there is only 1 more motel north of the Caribbean and then it%26#39;s all private houses for about a mile. Makes a nice place for a little more privacy. There is a lot less traffic on that end of the beach to. There also a couple of good places to eat breakfast within walking distance of your place. Try Harrys for some good morning food. Pier 14 just down the beach is nice for lunch or dinner and you have to go to Drunkin Jacks at least once while your there.

Not sure what all your looking for, but thats a start.

We jsut came back from there. We like the carribbean al;ot hwowever it is pretty mcuh a nice family hotel Not posh or upscale if that is what you are looking for. It has a great pool and beach area . The only thing I found is alot of the stuff we use to walk to liek the grocery store and a few shops have closed and moved to other locations. It is not as handy as it once was. Room s are clean and newly decorated. I was dispapointed in the restaurant next door the sea captains. It is rated #1 but we have gone there for years and found the serice poor and not up to par. May be a good place for breakfast though

I have been going to Myrtle Beach for many, many years. My family has always stayed at the Caribbean. My husband and I are now going to the Caribbean. It is a wonderful resort with a great location. Make sure you ask for a room above the pool, you don%26#39;t want to hear kids yelling in the pool all the time!

Enjoy!

After reading hundreds of reviews on myrtle beach hotels I booked a suite at the caribbean resort . I got my confirmation letter today only to find out 1. They do not guarentee room choices. 2. They charge you a fifty dollar resort fee in addition to room rate and taxes. 3. If you decide that this is not to your liking it costs 20% of your deposit to cancel.

I%26#39;ve never heard of a resort fee, you should check into that. Also there shouldn%26#39;t be any charges for cancellation unless it%26#39;s with-in 7 days of your arrival date. Sometimes resorts charge $25 if its less then 14 days but not less then 7 days.

Thank you all for your suggestions. We have decided to go with Caribbean! We considered Avista (in NMB) but decided it was a little too far from all the attractions we wanted to visit. Thanks once again!

Dear eagleglawz called resort the resort fee is new it started in Jan. 5.00 per day to cover wrist bands for pool and parking.I was planning 10 day trip so 50.00 resort fee. also 10% fee for all cancellation prior to 2 weeks and 20% after that.

ju2222,

Thanks for the info on resort fees. That was the first time I had heard of someone being charged something like that. You would think the $100 - $200 a night would cover that...LOL...

I bet with a little constructive complaining you might be able to get them to drop that charge. Since there are so many other places that don%26#39;t use it to swendle more $$$ from the people that keep the bread and butter on their table.

Hope your honeymoon is perfect dreamer06 !!!!!!!!!!!
