    Long review, but worth reading
    We stayed at this hotel because we attending a cheerleading competition in the area. We were a group of about 25+ rooms. I had read some bad reviews a couple of days before we were scheduled to stay & sent a message to the Manager Steve & called all day long to speak to…

    Excellent Stay! Absolutely Recommend!
    This was the first time that we stayed at Crown Reef, but it will not be the last time that we stay there. We had a wonderful vacation thanks to Crown Reef. Beautiful ocean view, great waterpark (especially the lazy river), on the beach, nice room, lots to do, and no issues…

    2 Stays A Week Apart
    As a avid Trip Advisor writer and follower I'm sharing our experience of this resort from 2 different stays that were only a week apart. My husband and I chose to take our grandchildren on a quick beach trip - first trip was 3/10/19 to 3/12/19 - our room was Tower 3 - Rm 943 …

    Great place for families!
    My three teens loved the water park, especially the slide. The heated pools & saunas were amazing. You have everything you need on site. Food, tiki bars, and the kids loved the game room. Great time for all!

    Family fun
    We stayed here because two of my sons were participating in the IKF production being held at the hotel. We enjoyed our stay other than a few minor maintenance issues in our room. The staff was friendly and helpful and the rooms were very neat and clean.

    When is the construction supposed to be finished?
    We hope to have all work done in the next 60 days, weather permitting. As always, we work hard to minimize the impact on our guests!

    Would it be best to rent a car all week while we stay? Or is it decent price to Uber a vehicle for 5...
    Hi Crystal, Having a car or using Uber is a great way to see the area, and keep in mind that we have delicious dining and a waterpark right within the resort, and convenient beach access. We also have Damon's oceanfront dining, Downwind Sails boat rentals, and a really cute art museum right next door to our oceanfront resort.

    How far away is this resort from the boardwalk? I am trying to see if any activities are within walking distance.
    Our oceanfront resort is 2.4 miles from the southern end of the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. Downwind Sails water sport rentals operate right outside our resort on the beach, and Damon's oceanfront restaurant and the art museum are right next door. The Market Common is a lovely area with shops and restaurants, and it is 1.9 miles inland. Don't forget about our year-round waterpark, arcade, oceanfront pools, and year-round restaurant that are right here at our resort!

    "I like tower 3 rooms, preferably the far right. That's the end of ocean Blvd."
    "Stay at least 3 or 4 doors from elevator. Bedroom are at entrance, so can be noisy."
    "If you have small children choose the Splash Zone and you will be able to easily access the water park."
    "Its a good stay for the price. Can get a little crowded and rooms a tad outdated."
    "Stay elsewhere"
