Good hotel for the price and location.
Bathroom needs to be cleaned.
Sauna, Jacuzzi and inside pool we found out on the last day when we were leaving.

It is close to the beach.
It is not like the other hotel that carries the same star rating. No internet access in room. Does not look like a newly renovated hotel.
For my own opinion, this hotel does not belong to a 2 1/2 star rating. This is an old building that was renovated but the renovation was not done completely. The paint on the elevators are rusting and fading. Carpets in the room were not that clean. The design of the room is an old motor type hotel. Doors won't close on its own, you will have to push it all the way to close it. Iron board were just standing in the closet and could be harmful to kids playing inside the room. There is no internet access in the room. We have to go to the lobby to connect to the internet. read more

The variety the hotel offered.
Needs more signage for checking in.
Very nice hotel, good variety of things to do. however the main entrance for checking in is at the back and its very congested where you pull up to the entrance.

Ocean view from our 4th floor room.
Very busy, too many teenagers unattended.
We were traveling to Orlando and thought a quick stop in Myrtle Beach would be nice. We only needed this room for two nights. While at the hotel the stay was pleasant. The room appeared to have been remodeled. Our ocean view room was nice, especially considering the good price. The only real negative was the wind blowing through the door. We had to put a towel at the top and bottom of the door. Without the towels we would have never been able to sleep over the howling wind. The door could use some weather stripping. Also, parking can be a bit overwhelming if traveling with children. The first night the lot designated for the Sand Dunes was completely full. We had to park in the lot designated for the Ocean Dunes which made the trip to the room even further. Luckily, the hotel provides parking right in front of the hotel for loading and unloading luggage. There seemed to be plenty of teenagers walking around unattended. Most were well behaved, while others were loud. We would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends. read more

Tropical atmosphere in the lounge.
Maid service did not clean our room on the first day.
Parking was inconvenient for the building we were staying. Bell hop did not offer to help with luggage, although it was just my daughter and myself (two females).

It was right on the beach!
Too large and hotel staff very unfriendly.
My room was off from the main hallway and as a single woman, felt a little unsafe. Restaurant/Bar was busy and I left after waiting 10 minutes without being acknowledged in any way.

The view of the beach.
The housekeeping was horrible. Even after notifying management, our rooms were not cleaned adequately.
I think the hotel (building and furnishings) met my expectations for the rating. I was very disappointed with housekeeping. I had to clean the tub myself when I first arrived. The next day, the tubs, floors, sinks, counters, and toilets were not cleaned. Towels and toiletries were not adequately replaced. I thought the hotel staff could have done better job in terms of attitude and presentation. read more

It is a resort with water park, playground, and several in-hotel restaurants - great for kids. And large coffee makers (12 cups) for adults in room.
The elevators always looked dirty but everything else was pretty clean.
It is beautiful, on the ocean, and in the middle of downtown Myrtle Beach and close to lots of fun things to do for kids.

The location.
Bath tub not clean, teenagers yelling & running throughout hotel, entrance to room from outside (cold & windy).
After staying at the Sheraton in Myrtle Beach our last visit, we were very displeased with the Sand Dunes. Also, the rooms this time of the year are very inexpensive. I think we could have made a better choice.

This hotel was great. The views were incredible and the hotel was extra clean. We were upset about an extra charge to our bill for our stay.
