An oceanfront retreat in Myrtle Beach ...
The oceanfront Hilton Myrtle Beach has finished a complete refresh of the 387 spacious guestrooms, event space, dining outlets and pool experience. Our outdoor dining and pool spaces have been completely updated with a lively island-centric vibe at the Wet Whistle Pool Bar and elevated alfresco dining at Beachcombers, both complimenting the already popular ocean view dining in Café Amalfi. The Sand bottom pool with cabanas, offering ocean views from everywhere, provides the perfect beach vacation.
Situated on the Atlantic coast, our oceanfront resort is tucked away along the famous northern end of Myrtle Beach on Beach Club Drive. We are less than ten miles from local attractions like Barefoot Landing and the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, and Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) is just 12 miles away.
