(ARA) – Who wouldn’t love a fun beach vacation this spring or
summer? If you’re afraid, however, that high-season prices put a
beach getaway out of your budget, think again. With the slowly
recovering economy still keeping many wary would-be vacationers at
home, plenty of deals will be out there for those who know where to
look.
From anywhere on the eastern seaboard, Myrtle Beach, home of
South Carolina’s famed “Grand Strand” and 60 miles of beautiful
beaches, is a prime destination. Even in summer, you’ll find Myrtle
Beach hotels offering outstanding deals and incentives. Whatever
type accommodations you’re seeking can be found there, from
luxurious beachfront resorts with indoor water parks to quaintly
named motels just
blocks from the beach.
A car rental
is a great way to get to Myrtle Beach, thanks to the interstate
highway system that makes road travel to this seaside city as easy
and pleasurable as the stay there itself. Or, if you’re traveling
from a bit farther away, check out Web sites like Travelocity for
great fares to the Myrtle Beach International Airport.
Here’s a sampling of the types of vacation deals you can expect
to find at
Myrtle Beach hotels:
* Discounts – Yes, even in summer, when business is better and
they may have less need to do so, hotels in Myrtle Beach may still
offer discounts. Some tempt repeat guests with special rates for
recurring stays. Others offer free nights when you book three, four
or more nights at the going rate.
* Complimentary food and beverage – In addition to free
breakfast, which you can find included at many hotels and motels,
some lodgings also offer packages that include accommodations at
their property and dinner at one of the many great restaurants that
dot Myrtle Beach.
* Take in a show – From country music extravaganzas to circus
spectacles, Myrtle Beach offers shows to appeal to everyone. During
high season, the most popular shows can be difficult to get into,
but some hotels offer packages that include admission to these
hot-ticket shows – without the hassle of standing in line at the
box office.
* Shopper’s paradise – Myrtle Beach has its fair share of great
shopping venues, from sprawling open-air centers like Barefoot
Landing and Broadway on the Beach to classic shopping malls and
outlets. If shopping is your bag, look for hotels that offer coupon
books and exclusive shopping packages.
* Attractive deals – From wildlife habitats to amusement parks,
the Grand Strand area has it all. Like the shows, popular
attractions can prove difficult to get into during high season. But
booking a package that includes attraction tickets through your
Myrtle Beach hotel is a great alternative to taking your chances
waiting in line.
