Myrtle Beach could be getting a new oceanfront hotel. Here’s what we know
Tourists could have another place to stay in Myrtle Beach as developers look to transform a vacant lot in the city’s southern end into a new multi-story oceanfront resort.
The proposed two-tower Holiday Inn Club Vacations Ocean Front resort would sit at 3001 S. Ocean Blvd. between DoubleTree Resort by Hilton and Damon’s Grill near Springmaid Pier, according to a proposal submitted to the City of Myrtle Beach last week by local consulting firm Development Resource Group, LLC.
The proposal calls for two six-story oceanfront towers that would comprise of 300-units — 150 rooms, including including 28 one-bedroom, 104 two-bedroom, 14 three-bedroom and four four-bedroom dwellings, in each tower — with an elevated amenity level connecting both towers and parking planned underneath the hotel.
Additionally, the resort would include two pools, four hot tubs, cabanas, a water feature with a fire cauldron, a seating wall and four dune walkovers that would have shower stations, according to plans. The 706,422-square-foot resort would also have an outdoor event space.
Before construction on the two-phase project can begin, a proposal to bring the Holiday Inn must get approval from the Community Appearance Board. The proposal is scheduled to go before Myrtle Beach’s Community Appearance Board on Thursday.
Representatives from Development Resource Group were not immediately available for comment.
