Myrtle Beach, South Carolina is where cherished memories are made along 60 miles of beautiful coastline. Discover stunning sunrises over the Atlantic Ocean, fun days at the beach, lush natural wonders and grand new adventures. Savor its warm Southern hospitality, fresh coastal cuisine, and its unique flavor of fun. Cherish these moments together as a family. Enjoy the Myrtle Beach retreat — where Little Pink happiness comes in waves.

The financial environment of not having to pay for anything was a huge stress relief, and that is priceless.
