“Completely Impressed!”
The hotel was beautiful. There were several hot tubs and two large pools in addition to an outside and inside water play area and lazy river. The hotel can keep any age happy and entertained, which is a tall order. If we had more time, the kids would have been able to visit the arcade and do more at the beach. The boardwalk is close by and the outlet mall is just a short drive. Broadway at the Beach is a must too. There is so much to do, it really takes a 3 day visit to do and see the area adequately. I would definetly recommend this hotel!!
“Wonderful stay”
This hotel is in a great location & on the most wonderful beach. The beach was right outside your window & easy to get to. The pools were heated & very clean, lots of lounge chairs(having some in the shade was nice). The room was good size, very clean, but carpet was very worn...needed some updating. Bed was good. Hotel staff were very nice & really interested in your being happy with your stay. We thought the hotel buffet breakfast was overpriced for what it was, there are so many great places to eat at Myrtle Beach I wouldn't waste my money eating here.
“Stayed twice and we will be back!!”
We have stayed at Ocean Reef twice over the last 2 years and have been very satisfied. The first time we stayed in a 3 bedroom suite and this time we stayed in a single deluxe room. Both were very nice. Great pool facilities and beach access right there. Love this hotel.
“"No disappointments here"”
My sister and I are both over 60 years of age and wanted a relaxing vacation at the beach. The weather was not what we expected for the first two days but our stay at the Ocean Reef was very pleasurable. The rooms were very clean, the personell were very friendly and helpful, the grounds and pool areas were kept clean and the cafe was very convienent for a delicious breakfast buffet. This was our first visit to Myrtle Beach and were very luckly to have chosen the Ocean Reef (ocean front) for our stay. We would not hesitate to stay there on a return visit.
“Can't wait to go back!!!!”
First time I have traveled to Myrtle Beach. The Resort was simply wonderful! The employees were fantastic! Our room was great along with the most wonderful view of the beach. We had our balcony door opened a few inches and listened to the ocean at night! Service was wonderful along with the food throughout the resort! Will stay here again!
“very nice hotel, the best bang for the buck inthe area”
I would recommend the hotel, despite I had some maintenance problems in my room though. Shower pipe was making noise when used (not a problem for me, but it was annoying for neighbors), and the AC was stinky (visited in October, so didn't need to use it thankfully, kept the balcony door swung open at all times). Other than that the staff was very helpful and nice even though I arrived at night like 4am, room was clean and cozy. Can't beat the location and price deals they offer :) Generally I spent wonderful weekend over there, the weather was sunny clear too :)
“Family of Fish for a Great Pool”
The hotel is clean and the pool area was great for the kids. Our room smelled like a wet dog when we first arrived and lacked many conveniences in the kitchen. Not a kitchen for cooking.
“OCEAN REEF EXCELLENCE”
This is the 4th year I have stayed at Ocean Reef, with the exception of the baby pool being cold, no sun at that area, I guess that may have been by design so the kids dont get sunburnt....... Other than that I am very happy with this hotel and will continue to go to Ocean Reef as long as I go to Myrtle Beach
“LONG CHECK IN”
TOOK THEM AWHILE TO HAVE THE ROOM READY(AFTER 3PM.)
“Great Family Resort”
Great facility. We were lucky to get a room with oceanfront view and sideview, large balcony areas, amazing view. Much better than what we expected. The waitress and other employees at the breakfast cafe were excellent. Variety of choices for breakfast. Waterpark was fantastic! Pool area, was great, beach was beautiful. Lazy river and hot tubs (there are are least 4 or 5) were great for the whole family.Hot dogs and burgers at pool area were great! Mixed drinks not that great, and bartender not too nice. Restrooms in pool area stunk. Other public restrooms were very clean. Front desk staff was okay. Overall, great place to stay. Local restaurants and malls are within driving distance, fairly close. Definitely would recommend it and go back!
