Myrtlewood Villas: A Beachfront Resort in North Myrtle Beach

By Constance Obi · Culture & Recreation Writer

What Myrtlewood Villas Offers

Myrtlewood Villas is a beachfront resort in North Myrtle Beach that combines condo-style accommodations with resort amenities. The property sits directly on the Atlantic Ocean, with units ranging from one to three bedrooms. Each villa includes a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and a private balcony or patio—features that appeal to families and groups who want more space and cooking flexibility than a traditional hotel room.

The resort operates year-round and caters to both short-term vacationers and longer stays. Units vary in layout and view, with oceanfront, oceanview, and garden-view options available. The property maintains a quieter feel compared to some of the busier Myrtle Beach resorts, though it remains within walking distance of North Myrtle Beach's dining, shopping, and entertainment districts.

  • The resort sits directly on the beach in North Myrtle Beach with oceanfront, oceanview, and garden-view unit options.

Accommodations and Room Types

Units at Myrtlewood Villas are individually owned condominiums managed by the resort, so layouts and furnishings can vary. One-bedroom units typically sleep four to six people, two-bedroom units sleep six to eight, and three-bedroom units accommodate larger groups. All units include a full kitchen with appliances, dining area, living room, and at least one full bathroom.

Each villa has a washer and dryer in the unit, eliminating the need to use shared laundry facilities. Balconies and patios vary in size and view depending on the unit's location and floor level. Some units face the ocean directly, while others overlook the resort grounds or neighboring properties. When booking, you can typically request a specific view preference, though availability depends on the season and how far in advance you reserve.

On-Site Amenities and Facilities

The resort maintains both an indoor heated pool and an outdoor seasonal pool, along with a hot tub. The fitness center is open to guests and includes standard cardio and weight equipment. Direct beach access means you can walk from your villa to the sand without crossing a street or navigating through a parking area.

A business center is available for guests who need to work during their stay. The resort also offers front desk services and housekeeping options, though these may carry additional fees depending on your booking. Parking is available on-site, typically included with your reservation.

Location and Nearby Attractions

Myrtlewood Villas sits in North Myrtle Beach, about 20 minutes north of central Myrtle Beach. The location puts you near North Myrtle Beach's restaurant row, which runs along Highway 17 and includes casual seafood spots, family restaurants, and upscale dining. The North Myrtle Beach Boardwalk is within walking distance and offers shops, arcades, and casual eateries along the waterfront.

Barefoot Landing, an outdoor shopping and entertainment complex, is about a mile away and features restaurants, live music venues, and retail shops. The resort is also close to golf courses, water sports outfitters, and the Cherry Grove Fishing Pier. Myrtle Beach's main attractions—including Myrtle Beach State Park, Huntington Beach State Park, and the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk—are a short drive south.

Booking and Reservation Information

Myrtlewood Villas can be booked directly through the resort's website or by calling their reservations line. Third-party travel sites and vacation rental platforms also list units at the property. Rates vary significantly by season, with peak summer and holiday weeks commanding higher nightly rates than shoulder seasons like spring and fall.

Minimum stay requirements may apply during certain times of year, particularly during summer and holidays. Cancellation policies vary depending on how far in advance you book and the specific unit. The resort typically requires a deposit to hold your reservation, with the balance due closer to your arrival date. Pet policies and any additional fees should be confirmed at the time of booking.

When to Visit

Summer (June through August) is peak season, with warm ocean temperatures and full resort activity. Expect higher rates and busier beaches during this period. Spring (April and May) and fall (September and October) offer pleasant weather, smaller crowds, and lower rates—making these seasons popular with families who can travel outside school breaks.

Winter (November through March) brings cooler weather and the lowest rates of the year. The ocean is cold for swimming, but the beach is quieter and the resort is less crowded. Holiday weeks (Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's) book quickly and carry premium pricing even in the off-season. Consider your priorities—beach swimming, budget, or avoiding crowds—when choosing when to visit.
