Beach Club at Montego Inn in Myrtle Beach, SC

The place is very dated inside. Bathrooms are tiny. The second bedroom has one door, no windows, so in a fire pretty limited escape options. The door to the hall bathroom doesn't close easily. The only real plus, it is on the beach.

Reserved the room 13-14 months before we traveled. Still ended up in an "ocean view" rather than ocean front. Very dissapointed. The parking is extremely tight, They limit each room to one car, which we did manage to get a second parking pass. The rooms and furnishings are extremely dated. Cooled by window unit ACs that are far from quiet. No dishwasher, the main bed was on a frame that was a little too wide. The box spring kept calling off if we sat down wrong causing the head to lower and feet elevate. The pool is small, laundry on the 4th floor consists of 2 coin operated washers and 2 coin operated dryers. Labeled $1.50, they actually cost $2. You can use an app to pay, but, having downloaded the app, I deposited $1.50 & a service charge, then had to download more with another service charge to dry our bathing suits and towels. Speaking of towels, the ones provided in the bathrooms are tiny and not overly soft. The hallway bathroom door doesn't close well, you have to lift the knob as you pull it shut. This is the kind of place I'd have gone as a very young man with limited funds. As a senior, I prefer a much higher end facility.

Enjoyed the locality. Nice pool, and beach access. Flowers and bushes are gorgeous. Would have been nice to have a dishwasher, washer and dryer. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

Small 1 bedroom. Office closed on Sunday so guests left to check in my calling and then using lock box to get keys. No bell hops. Luggage racks if you run around and look for them. We were lucky to get into our room. Not your grandmother's decor.. your great grandma. Horrible. Sleeper sofa was torture devise. Outside well maintained. Right on beach.

This was my second month long stay at The Beach Club at Montego Inn, having also spent February of 2023 there. And, I have already reserved a unit for the month of February 2025. February is definitely the off season for MB, but I enjoy walking the area without the crowds and traffic, and the Montego is fairly central to a lot of places. There are good restaurants nearby in the neighborhood area, over at Market Commmons, at the Mall (I Love Jimmy'z Hibachi!!!), and there are two grocery stores and a Big Lots within blocks. The airport is also a short cab ride away. The units I have stayed in here were well kept and reasonable in price. The staff was hard at work during both of my stays to continue to improve the property. I recommend a stay here without thinking twice. The staff (management, clerical, maintenance, and housekeeping) is amazing. (And I not a person who says that about many places I stay.) If you want a great winter snow bird trip, this is a good balance of activity and pricing. For a getaway weekend it is close enough to the action. Stay here.
