I've never been to Myrtle Beach and I'm a little overwhelmed by all the hotel options. I'd like to stay in a hotel that is central and gives me good sense of what Myrtle Beach is like. I'd love to know where locals tell their friends to stay when they visit, and why those areas and hotels are special. thanks!
At this time of year all of the hotels are bargains; so stay in the area you find most interesting'
south end Pawleys Island good restaurants more subdued but there is the gardens out us 17 cant think of the name but google gardens in myrtle beach full of great gardens lots of statues small lunch shop
murrells inlet down south they have the marsh walk a boardwalk that goes for about a half mile lots of restaurants nite life with live music boat tours etc
The Pier At Garden City is the big attraction music on the pier at nite thats about it
Garden City (South Carolina) thats a family resort not much going on
surfside beach same as above they do have a large water park for kids
Myrtle Beach you name it its there pick any hotel you want using hotel com be sure to get beach front this is still hurricane season havent had one since 2011 but lots to do boardwalk is there and broadway at the beach a large shopping center has lots of clubs for you shopping plenty of restaurants a multiplex theatre check it out on google
north myrtle beach not as lively as MB but there are the theatres lots to do shop and eat at barefoot landing i
Little River laid back lots of hotels and food not exciting for young crowd
now that is what we call 60 miles of grand strand just different incorporated areas but to visitors is just one big fantastic area with lots of beach plenty to do movies if it rains shop if it rains eat your heart out and when u leave you will come back

Katie you look like a young women so stay in north myrtle beach
there are some theatres, House of Blues Myrtle Beach, Pirates Voyage lots of shopping and bars if not north myrtle beach then stay in north side of myrtle beach confusing yes myrtle beach has a south end not good.
a north end pretty good
then you go into North Myrtle Beach itself. This is a tourist town so sixty miles of grand strand and thats sixty miles of hotels.
the center is around the board walk great to visit but stay in the north area.
