We have stayed several times over the years at Island Vista and have always had a wonderful experience. The rooms/suites are clean, attractive and have met our needs in all areas. We enjoyed the different pools and have noticed that guests care about staying at a nice hotel. The staff has always been accommodating and certainly appreciate returning guests. More

We have stayed @ Island Vista since 1 year after they opened and love it. The elevators are clean & fast. The rooms are getting a little tried now - carpets, mattrees need to be updated as well as rooms need repainting but the views are beautiful & having laundry in the room is wonderful. The restaurant staff & food... More

My daughter were in town to tour the local University (roughly 25 minutes away). We stayed in a 1 bedroom unit that was on the top floor. It was very clean and had an amazing view of the ocean. There are 3 very fast elevators centrally located in the lobby, which was nice since we were staying on the top... More

We stayed for a week in the 3 bedroom oceanfront condo and had a wonderful time. The condo was spacious and had a very nice balcony and ocean view. the only thing i could complain about was the parking, it was onsite which was good, but the garage is low and small so its hard to maneuver an suv in.

We are locals in Myrtle Beach and we visit quite a few different Hotels just for the pools, the pools were not heated as it stated and the pools broke my husband and son out in a rash and welts. I personally would not recommend this Hotel to my family who come to town to visit or to anyone in... More

Dear Guest… We had another understandable comment regarding the issue with our pool temperature earlier this month. Please allow us to repeat a segment of that reply: “We must apologize for the water temperature in our pools during your stay. There are several heating mechanisms for our many pools, and we unfortunately had two malfunctions back to back this year.... More

I would return again and again! It's so worth staying there! We went there in the middle of summer and beach wasn't even crowded. Hotel was but it's very spacious. Always got sun chairs. They have free music, shows, kids activities, and it's so worth going! Plenty of pool space! And around pool they have concrete and chairs are amazing... More

I stayed at this Resort in January of 2011 and gave it stellar reviews on here. This year's experience however was much different. The room was just as nice as last year, maid service was great, clean, quiet, and the resort is in a good location. However, the indoor pool room was COLD. Last year both the indoor swimming areas...

Dear Guest… We must apologize for the water temperature in our pools during your stay. There are several heating mechanisms for our many pools, and we unfortunately had two malfunctions back to back this year. Parts must be ordered and repairs are made immediately, but this apparently occurred during your stay… mechanical issues like that can’t be predicted, but we... More

First time staying. Great location since there are not many high rise condos around so that makes the beach not so crowded. Nice kiddie pool area for the very young. Indoor pool area was very cold so that made the pools cold. Everyone was getting in the hot tubs mostly. 2 bedroom oceanfront was very large. Needed new carpet. Nice... More

After the 2.5 months of obnoxious music and deranged drivers reminding me why I left the northeast and returned to my homeland, I spent the entire 4.5 hr. drive looking forward to what I knew was awaiting me. I had visited once before in the Fall and had a great time with family, but this was a getaway, get quiet,... More
