Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Myrtle Beach
For the vast majority of travelers, Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) is the only logical choice, as it sits within the city itself and offers the fastest, most affordable connections. Other airports in the list are located in neighboring cities and should only be considered if flight availability or pricing significantly favors them. Florence Airport (FLO) serves the city of Florence and requires a 65-mile journey, making it a secondary domestic option. Wilmington International Airport (ILM), located in the nearby city of Wilmington, serves the coastal region but is over an hour away by road. Similarly, Albert J Ellis Airport (OAJ) in Jacksonville and Charleston International Airport (CHS) in the neighboring city of Charleston are long-distance transit points. If you land at these distant hubs, renting a car is usually the most efficient way to reach the Grand Strand area, as public bus connections are infrequent and time-consuming. Prioritize flying into the city center whenever possible to avoid high private-transfer costs.

This was my little guys first spring break and first vacation and that’s to all the amenities offered at this hotel I’m the BEST MOMMY EVER! The pool area was everything and more! The game room was a nice time to waste time and have fun while it was raining. The views from the lobby during breakfast was beautiful and well as the balcony view from our room on the 19th floor and impeccable! Over all 10/10 . The only hiccup to mention was the Wi-Fi not working so well.FromUS$150

The queen size beds are more like a full size. Plug in bathroom was broken. And elevator had a spider in it. The bar was good. The parking garage is very sacred. Are bathroom had only two to four squares of toilet paper on the roll. However the costumer serves was great 👍. And because of that my fetcher wife and I had a great time. Would definitely recommendFromUS$115

This is the only place we will stay at Myrtle Beach. Once you stay here, you’ll see why. The best pool, plenty of food options on site, and the spa downstairs all make it a one stop shop. Always able to check in and not have to leave the entire tripFromUS$253

We took a family of five trip over spring break. This was a nice hotel and the pool and splash area were a hit with our kids (12, 10 and 2). The beach is right outside which was great. The room was not updated and older but we were out much of the time.FromUS$58

Absolutely wonderful time! Location is perfect! Beachfront, walkable to stores, easy access to the hiway. Staff was very friendly, personable and accommodating. Parking was OK, they have 3 properties 1 building has to use Parking at the other properties...of course it was the 1 I stayed in but it's just next door or across the street. The restaurants food & drinks were great. Very clean. I checked in the night the Hurricane Ian hit Mytle Beach that morning. There was a leak in out hallway that saturated the carpet in the hallway outside our apt, Maintenance & Housekeeping were on the case before we even noticed it. I would definitely recommend & stay here again.FromUS$63

This is so far the best Hilton to stay at I feel. This is not the them share like the enclave. The enclave has nicer furniture but I really like the parking and the employees at this location way better. The 23rd floor elevator is wild too.FromUS$157

This hotel was nice and clean. VERY clean!! Great location!!! They were recently renovated so they were still working out the glitches but overall a good stay. Would have been great if my husband and I could have gotten a room on an upper floor but they weren't able to do so. But next time I will just make sure I request an upper floor when booking. Also I want to shout out the housekeeping staff. They were truly so friendly and kind. We will definitely be back. Oh and one thing I think needs to be added is a table. My husband and I order out and eat in the room but we had nowhere to eat but on the bed.FromUS$94

The location is very good, there are many swimming pools, but it is November and the outdoor is no longer enjoyable. Sea view room but the corridor is open-air, strangely cold, if you don't want to be frozen for a long time in winter, you have to go to the front desk to have a sea view room in the corridor indoors.FromUS$153
