HELP! Myrtle beach condo recommendations
 
Hi everyone,
Taking a first trip to Myrtle Beach with our 2 kids, aged 4 and 7.
We're looking for a nice condo- clean, updated, quiet with a nice pool.
Looking to avoid partying crowds.
Would love access to a more quiet side/part of beach if possible.
Any recommendations are much appreciated!

If you decide to go the hotel route instead, the Hampton Inn Oceanside is what you describe. Maybe look at condos near there?

We have stayed at the Kingston Plantation, which offers many condos and an Embassy Suites hotel on the property. We stayed in a 3 br condo in the Margate Tower to celebrate my mom's 65th birthday and it was absolutely beautiful. It is pricey but it was a special occasion and we rented through VRBO which was a huge savings.
The Kingston Plantation is definitely in a quieter part of Myrtle Beach, not a party scene at all, at least not when we were there. However, it is a bit away from the main drag. We had a car but I believe they may have a shuttle service. We went into town almost every night and it was definitely nice to come back to our quiet location. But I would say the distance might be an issue for some people.
There are restaurant options and several pools on the premises as well as an on-site water park, my daughter's favorite part!
Have a great trip!

We have our own Myrtle vacation condo which we also rent out. It's in a very quiet residential area (more homes than condos) with a lovely small pool which is ideal for children. We're a 5 minute drive to Cherry Grove beach which is one of the quieter areas along the Grand Strand. We don't have a lot of availability left for this coming season, but you're certainly welcome to have a look. You can visit us on our website at http://www.beachesandbunkers.com.
Good luck and have fun!

We stay in the Crescent Beach section of North Myrtle Beach. Tons and tons of condos there. Go to northmyrtlebeachchamber.com for a wealth of info! Have fun.

if you are looking for a quieter side of Myrtle Beach try South Myrtle Beach. There will be less college kids and if you are looking for a vacation condo and have not found one already try this place: www.bestvaluemyrtlebeachcondos.com

They have good rates and oceanfront accommodations!

Good luck and enjoy your trip!
