    Caved in ceilings and rusty appliance and silverware

    This is a horrible place to stay. We stayed on the 18th floor. Let's start with the marijuana smell everywhere. Hallways, elevators, parking garage, and even staff members smoking while cleaning rooms. Is marijuana legal in South Carolina now!!!Security was nonexistent. I did not feel safe at that resort. We made sure we were back in by dark. There were no pans to cook with. And the little silverware that they had was rusted. We had to purchase our own skillets. Our first night, while hanging clothes, the closet ceiling fell through. The next morning, I go into the bathroom and part of the ceiling came down in the shower. Apparently there was a leak upstairs that never got fixed. So we had to stay there the whole time with a hole in the bathroom ceiling. They just slapped some plaster on our ceiling to be greedy, to get the unit rented. The appliances were old and rusty. The furniture was gross and filthy. Luckily I brought an extra sheet to cover the sofa so we could sit on it. You can't just slap some fresh paint on the walls and call it renovated! I was told that the units are privately owned. They just clean them. Lol. Well, the SLUMLORD OWNERS are doing a piss poor job!! Take my advice. Go somewhere else like North Myrtle Beach. The only thing good about this resort is the ocean view.

    I had a lovely stay at the Paradise Resort. Staff was kind and professional. Parking was convenient upon arrival. Room was ready at check in. We entered a spacious ocean front villa with plenty amenities, large bathtub, washer and dryer, full kitchen, private balcony. The views from this resort were amazing. Steps from the beach, and plenty to do at the resort and in the immediate area. This resort is close to restaurants, shopping and entertainment.

    The place is pretty decent. It's right on the beach, it's close to so many restaurants and attractions. There's so much to do in this one area. Around this time of year there's plenty of parking in the parking garage. I haven't had to wait longer than ten seconds for an elevator. The staff is so kind and professional. They take safety seriously as well. Now onto the cons...... the breakfast is quite disappointing. The rooms could use MAJOR renovation. New appliances are needed! New furniture is NEEDED! We had to see it through. The views are immaculate! So we stayed..... today was the end all be all. ROACHES!! Awwww hell nawwwww! CANNOT! So now we're packing up everything and we're leaving our much needed trip EARLY! I was looking forward to walking on the beach tonight but oh well.

    I really enjoyed staying here. I would say the only negatives would be the tight parking garage and the lackluster pool area. Other than that I loved the room. It was clean, had everything (and more) that we needed, had a beautiful view of the ocean and I loved the direct beach access.

    This was our first time staying here and we were in a 2 bedroom condo on the 2nd floor. Check in was fine and the staff were very nice. We got up to our room around 8pm and it was right over the pool and outdoor bar area which was pretty loud with music and people in the pool but it was only 8pm and I was worried that it would be loud all night but by 10pm it was fine. The room could have used more cleaning - there were candy wrappers still on the floor by the bed and the couch was worn and stained. The bathroom was pretty clean. We didn't use anything in the kitchen such as plates or glasses. We had some plastic ware that I knew was clean. The tv in the living room was streaming only which was not good for my 90 year old dad who just wanted to watch regular TV. So he had to stay in his room to watch the TV in there because the bedroom tvs were cable and not streaming. Also, the bedrooms are both against the hallway and if you're trying to sleep in, you'll be waking up to room doors opening and closing all morning. It would have been nice to have had a bedroom oceanfront and not on the hall. I mean the only window in each bedroom looks out into the hallway so of course the curtain is pulled shut all the time. The parking deck was full every day so we had to park in their overflow lot across the street which was OK. It had more room anyway. All in all, I've stayed in nicer Myrtle Beach resorts, but the view was wonderful and the beach access was easy to get to from the ground floor.

    We had a nice stay at Paradise Resort. We found it when looking for a week long rental for a softball tournament. We considered vrbo options that were fancier, but decided to go with a better location and stay right on the beach for the same investment. We originally noticed PR on vrbo, but the floor plans were the same so I contacted them directly which was cheaper for the same stay. I did notice the decor and look was nicer with vrbo, but we did not plan to be in the room much and the size of the room was the same with either rental. When we arrived our room wasn't ready yet but we we're able to explore the pool area some. The outdoor Tiki Bar is great! Food is pretty delicious also! It was pretty packed the Sunday we checked in. I had asked for a lower level room because I don't love waiting on elevators and we liked the idea of the teenagers and ourselves not having as far to go to the pool and beach. We ended up in room #110 which was directly above the pool. At first I was not crazy about that idea because of the crowd at the pool, but it ended up being fine and a great spot for easy access to everything. The room itself was clean and looked just like the pics. It was dated and could use a spruce up, but like I said we chose to sacrifice nicer decor by not going with one of the vrbo options. I will say the only other thing that was lacking were the kitchen supplies. We had very minimal pots and pans, and no measuring cups, spoons etc. That put a cramp on our plans to cook more, but it was enough for breakfast, lunch and snacky items. I received a text from the resort everyday checking to see how our stay was going. Anytime I made a request, it was met. We had issues with our drier not working and they fixed it the day I notified them. They also cleaned the floors and brought towels whenever we asked. They more or less let the guest determine how often they clean the room. All in all we had a great vaca and felt like we got our money's worth by staying with Paradise Resort. Sunrises from our balcony were beautiful!

    My family and I went for an end of the year vacation. We figured even if it's during the winter we could still take advantage of the indoor pools. We worked out perfectly for us. The kids had a wonderful time in the indoor Lazy River. We stayed in a two bedroom condo, and it was perfect! Waking up to a view of the ocean was the best. Front desk was very friendly and helpful. I look forward to coming back to Paradise soon.

    Nice resort with a few minor things that didn't work properly in the room. Parking lot is usually full mid evening so you must park across the street. Overall not a bad hotel.

    This hotel was very clean and the staff extremely friendly. The beach is nice with plenty of sand even at high tide. There is no lifeguard at the pool, but there was always a staff member patrolling the pool area and keeping an eye on everything. We never had to wait for an elevator for more than a couple of seconds and we were on the fifteenth floor. On the down side, it is like many of the high rise hotels that are showing some age. The AC unit was old and located in a poor place because the back sticks out of the tiny balcony and it's loud and blows hot air. So unless you turn it off, it's not pleasant to be on the balcony, and we paid extra for an ocean view room. There is not an ice machine on every floor. I think they were on every fifth floor. One was broken and we had to go to multiple ones to get ice. (another was empty.) Overall, it's a decent hotel for the price. I think they are doing the best they can for the age and condition of it. I did get a good price through booking.com, but I will never use them again. We moved our dates to avoid a hurricane and were told by booking.com that there would be no change in price. Then they charged an additional amount and after numerous calls and filling out a form for them, they declined crediting the amount, blaming the hotel for declining the claim since the hotel said they did not issue the charge. This was true, the hotel had nothing to do with the booking.com charge made by booking.com. I had to dispute it through the credit card company and then booking.com finally issued the credit and apologized, but it was a huge hassle to get that refunded, especially since their response when they declined it was by a no-reply email address. So, beware of booking through them. I also was not able to change the dates through the hotel since they were booked through booking.com, which meant I had to go through booking.com to handle the changes. All a big hassle. Lesson learned.

    Many years ago , my oldest Siblings and I tried to pull off a Myrtle Beach vacation. It was more flea bags motel and hotel on this block. Then quality ones. Since, that experience. I've tried avoided the whole block. A full 7 years. Here on an another Myrtle Beach vacation with my In laws. On the same street I avoided for years. I was pleasantly surprised!!! The resort was clean, fresh and updated. Our suite had quality kitchen appliances, pots, dishes , utensils , etc. Our mattress were from TRUMPS ' luxury line. The view was amazing. We had a lived performance from " It's a Twin THANGS". Nothing beats sitting on the balcony, listening to live music. The pool were clean daily. My nephews love the lazy river. The hot tub was relaxing too. We will definitely be back. Thank you for great service.

    To start, the resort is AMAZING. The resort itself is phenomenal. However, we booked through TURNKEY rentals so the resort doesn't control what happened with our room. Who we booked through left the room completely disgusting. Basic housekeeping was barley done. The bed that we pulled out was BROKEN. The springs were missing and I went straight though the bed! I could've gotten cut on a spring. We have had to BEG for basic necessities like toilet paper and towels and still have yet to get anything. Something as simple as toilet paper should be provided considering how much was charged for the room. We've been asking someone to come in and check out complaints for almost 14 hours now. They just Jeep trying to come into the room when we are not there. The blankets for the beds was GROSS. It looked like toothpaste or gum. Can't even wash the bedding. I cannot believe the lack of care and customer service from turnkey. Never again.

    The balcony and views are 5 stars. Guy at front desk, 5 stars! Free parking, 5! Nice sized room w washer and dryer. Only real negative, halls stink; lot of weird smells, burning, cooking... no ventilation. Pool area is decent sized, lot of poorly behaved kids running around at 10pm on school night. Attendant to monitor and clean pool area would help, dirty w cups, towels all over.. smart, how these beach side spots charge a resort fee! Another way to GRAB more $$$$

    Me and my bf came for a trip sept 12-18. Stayed on the 14th floor and have no complains what so ever. We reserved our stay over the phone a few months before and they gave us complimentary breakfast for each morning of our stay. The breakfast and staff working is amazing. So friendly. If you go here, spend the extra $$ and book an oceanfront room, so worth it. Overall, the staff at the front lobby, breakfast buffet crew, and cleaning ladies were amazing. Our room was very clean.

Being that it's December, rooms are easy to find at Myrtle Beach so we waited until we got there. I found this hotel on my Hilton app and tried to book it while I was in their driveway. It wouldn't work for some reason so I went inside and talked with Angie at the front desk. Fabulous lady and super nice. She completely squared us up. She gave me the price on the app and even upgraded us for our birthday. We had a wonderful suite on the 12th floor with a spectacular view of the beach and a small deck to enjoy the view. The room featured two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a living room. The bed was what you'd expect from a Hampton Inn; comfortable with plenty of pillows.

The hotel staff were friendly and professional throughout my stay. There was also a gentleman working during breakfast on Sunday morning (I didn't catch his name) who was especially helpful and attentive. He had on a red shirt and long hair. Service like that truly makes a difference. That said, there were a couple of downsides. My oceanfront room had a noticeable wet dog smell, which was disappointing. Also, the $25 per night parking fee feels excessive. I've chosen to stay at this property for quick beach trips over the last 10 years, and unfortunately, the parking situation alone will likely keep me from returning. I also want to note that the hotel is currently under renovations (it is the off-season), so that's something to keep in mind when booking. While I'm not disappointed in the staff at all they were amazing the added costs and room issue were enough to make me reconsider staying here again.

Since it was definitely post-season, we appreciated having fewer people around, making for a more relaxing stay. The weather was nice, although the water was a bit cold, but the view from the ocean-view villas was spectacular and truly beautiful. One thing I really liked was the on-site kitchen! It's a huge money-saver, especially for families. Even making one meal a day at home helps offset travel costs, and it was convenient to have that option. The hot tubs were a lifesaver since it was so cold outside, and they offered fun classes like s'mores for kids and aqua exercise classes, which added some extra entertainment. The gym was well-equipped, and the service overall was great. However, on our last day, the housekeeper knocked and entered immediately without giving us a moment to respond, that felt a bit unprofessional. Despite that, I still found the place and the area on that side of Myrtle Beach to be wonderful. If you're planning a trip, I'd definitely recommend visiting off-season for the best prices and a more peaceful experience!
