Stay, Eat, Play: Landmark Resort
This year we visited Myrtle Beach in South Carolina and stayed at Landmark Resort. It is one of the 14 resort properties managed by Vacation Myrtle Beach – the friendliest place on the beach!
Situated along the famous Grand Strand, it is ideal for families, couples, friends and solo travelers.
It’s conveniently located within a few miles away from all of Myrtle Beach’s popular attractions.
With 17 indoor and outdoor pools, lazy rivers, waterpark, kiddie pools, game room, fitness center, and unlimited putt putt, you will not be bored.
There is also private access to the beach so no need to find a parking spot like the public entrances.
Did I also mention Landmark Resort has the only enclosed crosswalk in Myrtle Beach?
Above Ocean Boulevard, it crosses to their parking garage, H2Oasis Waterpark and Putt Putt.
Stay at Landmark Resort
We were so excited to return to another great Vacation Myrtle Beach property. Last year we stayed at Captain’s Quarters Resort which you can read on our blog, here.
We stayed in the Oceanfront Executive Suite at Landmark Resort.
One of the things we love about Vacation Myrtle Beach resorts is the option to cook and dine in our room.
Majority of their suites include a full kitchen – microwave, coffeemaker, stove, cookware, dinnerware and full size refrigerator.
There is also a bathroom, hair dryer, in-room safe and free Wi-Fi.
We enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning from the private oceanfront balcony too.
Tip: If you wake up early, you may spot dolphins in the ocean. This typically happened around 7am when we visited in May.
Not only can you stay for a nice vacation, but you could rent or buy a unit!
Units that are available through the front desk can also be booked via Vacation Myrtle Beach reservations or through Landmark Resort.
The units are individually owned but not all are through the front desk.
To buy a unit, you can do so through the on-site real estate office which is a separate entity from Vacation Myrtle Beach.
Once an owner purchases a unit or before they purchase they are welcome to chat with the Landmark Resort homeowner rep to learn more about joining the rental program.
Eat
Landmark Resort also has year-round dining with 6 on-site eateries.
The Gazebo Restaurant for breakfast, Latitudes Bar & Grill for lunch and dinner, Havana Java Bar is open daily and serves Starbucks.
The fish sandwich at Latitudes was addictive and delicious. I ordered it twice on our visit!
The absolute best dessert we ate was also at Latitudes Bar & Grill. You must order the fried cookie dough with vanilla ice cream – so good!
Seasonal and poolside dining include Tipsy Turtle Pool Bar serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, snacks and light meals. Also, Seaside Pizzeria and Shark Bites Snack Bar are available during summer months.
Play
There is so much to do at this resort, especially when you have to keep kids entertained.
I really enjoyed their Putt Putt course at H2Oasis. I can’t remember when it was the last time I played, but it was so much fun!
Of course Tristan tried to cheat the game and walk the ball to each hole proclaiming he’s a “winner!”
Silly toddlers.
Putt Putt is available daily for Landmark guests and you can play as many games as you’d like.
Tip: If you arrive before check-in, you can leave your luggage with the front desk staff and take advantage of all resort activities such as the waterpark, putt putt, pools and beach. They will call you when your room is ready.
Every day was a beach day for us. Tristan absolutely loves the ocean. He also loves indoor pools which luckily there were many to choose from.
The indoor pools came in handy when the weather turned windy and dropped in temperature on our first day there.
Indoor pools are perfect if you visit the resort during cold weather months. They have heated pools so if it’s cold outside, you’ll be nice and warm inside!
Tristan brought along his favorite toy shark since he couldn’t play with it on the shore.
Say “hello” to his new friend, Sharkie!
Friendly Resort
The staff were wonderful! If there was something that we needed (extra coffee for the room, towels, etc.) they delivered right away.
All staff at Vacation Myrtle Beach properties undergo training to specialize in creating happy guests. So much that there are many repeat visitors so Vacation Myrtle Beach is doing something right!
We’d like to thank Landmark Resort and Vacation Myrtle Beach for giving us the opportunity to experience another remarkable resort.
For more information or reservations, visit Landmark Resort or Vacation Myrtle Beach website.
We were hosted by Vacation Myrtle Beach at Landmark Resort in exchange for a review on our blog. As always, opinions are our own.
