Motels are one of
the most popular lodging choices at Myrtle Beach and elsewhere.
They can be among the most budget conscious lodging selections,
yet many motels now have amenities that rival larger and more expensive
resorts. You can find everything from small Mom & Pop run operations
to large motel resorts that might as well be called hotels.
Recommendation (Travel Tip)
For those of you who have a dog and wish to take her/him along on vacation, Ocean
Lodge accept pets. They are right on the beach and are reasonably priced.
Go Ocean Front all the
way (Travel Tip)
Even though ocean front motels are somewhat more expensive, we
think it is always worth taking ocean front accommodations. After
all,
you are going to the beach to enjoy the beach. Budget the extra
cost into your vacation plans and do it right. Why travel for
hours for your long anticipated getaway, and then have to peer
between
buildings or around corners to see the sea? Trust me, its much
better to relax out on your balcony with your sweetie and your
favorite
beverage, watching the waves roll in and hearing that unique 'ocean
sound'. When you take this advice you'll thank me for giving it. Discounts at non-traditional resorts (Budget Tip)
You can also rent blocks of days or entire weeks from various
motels. Sometimes these can be a real bargain, as they are
trying to rent
as many rooms as possible through out the year. They will
give good deals at the last minute to get some income for the
rooms.
High
Season Pricing (Travel Tip)
For the summer season, of course expect higher per night prices,
and be sure to make your reservations early. June, July, and
August dates fill up fast at the best hotels.
Membership Discounts
(Budget Tip)
Many motels provides discounts for membership in such organizations
as AAA and AARP. Make sure to mention such memberships
both when you make your reservation, and when you check in at
the registration
desk.
