Myrtle Beach, Sc in the Winter

So What Happened?

We had a blast in Myrtle Beach over winter break. We started our stay at The Anderson in a 2 bedroom/2 bath condo. It was huge! The things I did not like were #1 - the pool area. You have to cross a parking area to access the pool area and it was cold doing so. The pool area was decent size but I felt somewhat claustrophobic because it was so enclosed. It was also not as kid friendly as we would have hoped. For New Year's eve we stayed at The Hampton Inn on Ocean Blvd. What a fantastic hotel! We had a 2 bedroom/2 bath also but we felt closer to the ocean when out on the balcony. The Indoor pool area was bright and airy with 2 huge heated pools and 2 hot tubs. There is also a lazy river, kids pool and regular pool outdoor but it was too cold for us to try them out. They also had a hot tub outside which we didn't use but other people did. The Hampton has a playground and 4 hammocks which our daughter really enjoyed. We went to Broadway at the Beach and Mini- golfed as well as rode rides at the Pavillion and played in the arcade. On New Year's Eve they had a fantastic fireworks display also. It was nice to be able to walk around without large crowds of people and we really enjoyed ourselves. Myrtle Beach is our new favorite vacation destination!
