OCEAN PLAZA MOTEL, Myrtle Beach

The motel sits directly on the beach with its own oceanfront pool area and a gate providing immediate sand access. Family Kingdom Amusement Park is 2 km from the property, and Myrtle Beach International Airport is a 10-minute drive. Several restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping are within a short walk (approx. 0.5 km for multiple dining options). The area can be lively with noise from traffic and other guests, particularly on weekends; light sleepers may prefer a quieter room away from the road. Parking on site is free but spaces fill up in the evening, at which point an overflow lot (a 10-15 minute walk away) is available.

The property offers a variety of room types including double, quadruple, and family rooms, each with a private bathroom (bath/shower), flat-screen TV with cable channels, air conditioning, heating, and carpeted flooring. Selected rooms feature a kitchenette equipped with a stovetop, oven, and kitchenware. Some rooms have a private balcony with ocean or city views; rooms with a balcony are noted specifically (e.g., 'This oceanfront room features a private balcony and a kitchenette'). The triple-queen room is a single room with three queen-size beds in the same area; it does not have separate bedrooms. The building is older, and room condition can vary: some units are well-maintained with comfortable beds and good water pressure, while others may show wear (dated decor, carpet stains, minor maintenance issues). Rooms are generally spacious and practical for a beach stay.

The motel does not have its own restaurant or breakfast service. For meals, guests can walk approximately 0.5 km to reach several nearby restaurants, including Tena's, Dinoland Cafe, 7th Ave Cafe, Villa Romana Italian Restaurant, Dino's Pizza, Shiver Me Pinchers, and Papa John's. A vending machine for drinks and snacks is located on site.

The property provides multiple swimming and relaxation options. The indoor rooftop pool (open 09:00-22:00, year-round) offers views and a hot tub. The outdoor pool is seasonal and weather-dependent. Two indoor hot tubs are available and are free of charge. A children's pool is also on site. Sun loungers are provided, and there is a shower with a hose at the beach gate for rinsing off after the ocean. For additional leisure, the beach is directly accessible, and golf courses, mini-golf, live music, movie nights, and themed dinner nights are available nearby (some at additional cost).

Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms. Free private parking is provided on site; reservation is not possible and spaces can be limited in the evenings. An overflow lot is accessible but is a 10-15 minute walk away. A lift serves floors up to the 6th floor; the 7th floor is accessible only by stairs. An ATM/cash machine is on site, and vending machines for drinks and snacks are available. Laundry facilities (washer/dryer) are available on site. Service animals are allowed, but pets are not permitted. The property is non-smoking throughout and has smoke alarms.
