Traveling with 5yr old and 1 yr old

Help!! I am trying to decide where to stay in Mrytle Beach in July. We have 2 kids- 5 and 1. Where would you suggest? I am pretty picky about cleanliness. I have been to Myrtle Beach twice and I stayed in dumps both times. Is it me or is it Myrtle Beach? So far I have looked at Marriott Resort at Grande Dunes, The Breakers Resort, The Caribbean Resort, and so on. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have never been to MB before and have been doing TONS of research on where to stay. Have you thought about the New Roxanne Towers? A lot of people have been suggesting this to me. Since you have been there before can I ask you where in MB you are going to stay? Downtown or the north end? I have three kids and I have received conflicting views. Some say stay Downtown the kids will have more fun... then others will say ....stay north it is more family orientated and quiet and you can just drive downtown. What do you suggest?

I would suggest the Sandy Beach Resort. It%26#39;s located just far enough south of the Pavilion area to avoid most of the traffic and noise. The rooms in the Magnolia building are nice, spacious, have kitchens and are all oceanfront. The hotel has multiple pools, hot tubs and a small lazy river. The lazy river, one pool and one hot tub are under the building if you want to seek shelter from the sun in the middle of the day. Navigating from here is a breeze without ever having to get on Hwy 17, 501 or Ocean Blvd you can go almost anywhere and avoid the traffic. There is a convenience store across the street, Family Kingdom amusement park across the street, the areas only oceanfront water park next door, some dining options within easy walking distance and 2nd Ave. Pier is a very short walk on the beach. We%26#39;ve stayed here many times over the last few years and have enjoyed every stay. Families and couples only.

Stayed at the Breakers before, it is one of the more upscale hotels in Myrtle Beach. I love it and would not stay anywhere else. The two bedroom suites are beautiful! You are direct ocean front, and the beaches are better on this side of Myrtle Beach. The Amusement parks are about .75 miles away. Starbucks is right across the street, and there are many great restaurants.



If you do choose the Breakers, be sure to ask for the Paradise building, it is the newest one and has a 400 foot lazy river and a nice kids pool, that is a ship.



In my opinion you never go wrong with the Breakers.




Im with you rreparker. Cleanliness is very important and I get the impression that some MB hotels are very ';used';. Im staying at Marriott July 9-16 with 2 kids 3 and 6. Does anyone have any comments. Never been to MB. This hotel looks great.
