We had an ocean front three bedroom condo, it was amazing. My only complaint would be the hallways are in major need of some renovation, the rugs were bad, it looked old out there. For our last day we had a room just to shower in and store our bags, we had a late flight, it was a one bedroom and it was not good, never would have slept in there, it was so damp and musty smelling and the carpets needed to come out of there really bad!

Oh my family loves the CW! I follow them on Facebook and enjoy all the photos. We had a great time. Nice friendly staff with a even better room. It was very clean and we enjoined our stay. This is my hubby’s favorite place at Myrtle. I’m hoping we can come back this year. :)

I live locally and usually stay at Carolina winds during my staycations. The staff Ida friendly and helpful. Georganna went out of her way to help me with my reservation and choosing a room. I’m very pleased with the room that I’m in, 609. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, bakeware, and kitchen gadgets which is a big deal for a gal who loves to be in the kitchen!

Wife and I stayed this past week and we really enjoyed ourselves. Carolina Winds are«condo style» rooms meaning the rooms your staying are owned by someone who allows Carolina Winds to rent their condos out. Each condo is furnished by the owner so some condos might be more updated than others or might seem nicer than others. Stayed in 711 and for the most part it was nice and adequate for what we needed. Condo was clean and besides some wear and tear was nice(balcony view wad great) The outdoor pool is nice, but appears to not heated. The indoor and outdoor jacuzzi are nice and the indoor heated pool was a favorite hang out for kids. The restaurant that is on the sign is no longer in operation and should be replaced or turned into something else. The staff is friendly and the parking shouldn’t be a problem since Carolina winds owns the building next door(which has a lazy river). But the selling point of this place is it’s location being smack in the middle of everything and good restaurants blocks away from you.

Love the casual, laid back vibe of the Carolina Winds. I’ve been coming back for 6 years now, and have spoken with other guests who have been annual visitors for 20+ years. The condos are all individually owned, so the level of décor differs greatly. But they are all decent, and have a nice view of the beach and ocean. Indoor and outdoor pools and hot tubs, easy beach access. No restaurant, but each unit has a kitchen, and all the usual chain restaurants are just down the road. It’s pretty family oriented and, as I mentioned, very casual, so if you find the pitterpatter of little feet on hot concrete, soaking wet kids shivering and dripping water on the elevator floor all day long, and a lot of splashing in the pools, charmingly reminiscent of your own childhood vacations, you’ll like it. If you don’t, you’re not going to be able to change it, escape it, or complain it away, so stay elsewhere.

We recently stayed in a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo at the Carolina Winds over Spring Break. It was a fabulous choice!!! The condo we stayed in was #901. It is beachfront with a great view, and is also on the end. It had one bedroom with 2 twins, one bedroom with a queen bed. They shared a big bathroom. It also had a master bedroom, very spacious with a walk in closet and large en suite bathroom, complete with double sinks and a large soaking tub. The master opened up to a large balcony. It was wonderful to hear the ocean at night! The kitchen was small, but had a full sized fridge, oven, and dishwasher. The bathroom appliances were in great shape and the counters were granite or something similar. The sitting room had two couches, a flat screen TV, and also opened to the balcony. Everything was in great shape and nice — not dated at all. We were two couples staying here and didn’t use the third bedroom, but it was nice to store our beach stuff. We just wanted two bathrooms and the value was good. The resort was very quiet when we were there. Mostly older couples from Canada! I didn’t see many kids. There is an indoor pool and two indoor jacuzzis, as well as an outdoor pool, kiddie pool and jacuzzi. You can walk right to the beach in a minute from the pool area. The outdoor pool was heated and very comfortable to swim in, even when it was a bit too chilly to sit in a bathing suit on the beach. We did get some of those moments too, but it was nice to swim in the pool when the ocean was too chilly. The hot tub was also awesome to hang out in. Staff here were very friendly and happy to be there. Check in and out were a breeze, as were all other interactions we had. The location is great, with a 10 minute drive to Broadway at the Beach, Barefoot Landing, and the outlet malls. It’s right by a Food Lion for easy food shopping. I would definitely stay here again, and I will the next time I’m in Myrtle Beach!

I stayed here for a week during New Years 2009 and it was an amazing stay. The hotel mostly has condo like rooms, when we walked in there were two queen beds and a tv and you went through a door to a full kitchen with stove and everything, bathroom has standard on the right and through another door was a living room. The living room had a pull out sofa and a hidden wall bed and a dining room table with a tv. The room was clean and very homey. The hotel has two pools, a hot tub, a lazy view, a game room, a restaurant, and amazing views. It was a fantastic vacation.
