Clean, wide white-sand beaches, mild temperatures and southern hospitality all come together into one of the best vacation spots in the world – Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. While only about 25,000 people call Myrtle Beach “home” on a year-round basis, these same folks play host to thousands of visitors every year.

Killer Awesome Beach

The beach itself stretches for sixty miles and has received honors, awards and distinctions including being one of “World's Best Beaches,” “America's Favorite Golf Home Towns,” “Best Thrill-Seeker Beach,” and on USAToday's list of “10 Great Places to Go Coastal with Your Kids.” The water is supplemented by the amazing weather, with the warmest month being July, when temperatures are just right for water-play, to mild 50s and 60s in the winter months.

Myrtle Beach Golf

Myrtle Beach, also known as South Carolina's Grand Strand, is home to over one-hundred twenty golf courses, increasing your chances of getting a good deal. That makes it an ideal location to teach your kids to golf. Check out this family golf resort.

Other Rockin Cool Stuff to Do

If your family does not golf, maybe you would prefer exploring the famous Boardwalk, the Carolina Opry, or the Myrtle Beach Pavilion Amusement Park. Maybe Nascar is your thing, if so, Myrtle Beach Speedway is only four miles from the ocean and hosts Nascar races on Saturday nights. If you're more into motorcycling than car racing, you can find rentals of Harley-Davidson and other makes of motorcycles, as well as ATVs, dirt bikes, scooters and water craft. If you came for the Atlantic, you will find the most amazing ways to enjoy it – these include boating, sailing, fishing, parasailing or on a jet ski.

Myrtle Beach Dining

Don't think that because this is a southern state that all the food is grits and gravy – Myrtle Beach offers oceanfront dining experiences in every category and form, from traditional American (because sometimes we need those grits and gravy!) to premiere Thai food, and from establishments that offer anything from fresh baked goods to the themed Cheeseburger in Paradise café and the NASCAR Café.

Parks and Playgrounds

Packed with parks and playgrounds, Myrtle Beach is the ideal spot to help families with kids of all ages save some money on their vacation. Many parks are free to visit, but you can also visit water-themed parks, and, of course, the beach is always free. Some of the resort hotels have incredible indoor lazy rivers. The Ingram Planetarium is an expensive, informative, and fun family outing, and Myrtle Beach is home to museums, and lots of historic places to visit. This is, after all, the South!

Whether you're going on a honeymoon, looking for a venue, or just grabbing a couple of days time out from your hectic schedule, choosing a hotel is the most vital decision in ensuring you have an enjoyable time. Regardless of the importance of finding the right hotel, it can often be quite difficult to strike a balance between quality and price, and often the hotels that look best are too expensive! So what should you think about in selecting a hotel, and where should you to find that perfect accommodation? One of the top ways to decide which hotel is right for a person is to consider what one is looking for, and to match the requirements against the star rating assigned by tourist associations. Generally, the star system ranks from 0-5 on a rising scale depending on the degree of facilities and luxuries within the hotel. The higher the stars, generally, the more costly the room rate, which can help one gauge value for money. Of course, if one finds somewhere with a higher star rating at a lower cost, then one can be sure this is expected to provide better value for money in terms of facilities and the level of service what a person can expect.

Another way to select a good hotel is by going on word of mouth. What a person's friends think about various hotels in the region? Has anyone whom one knows had an exceptionally good (or bad) experience of hotels around about the one you are looking for? These can be good ways to ascertain that one gets good value for money out of your hotel, and it can also be a great way to ensure that one does not get disappointed. In addition, the recommendations of people one knows aren't fouled with commercial interest, and if someone tells that they had a good experience, they are more likely telling the truth than if one hears it from the hotelier himself.
