Wyndham Ocean Boulevard

A fantastic place to spend a vacation!!!

We just completed a vacation in adjacent 2 bedroom units in Tower 3. Both units, recently redecorated, were spotless, had excellent pool and ocean views from balconies and bedroom windows, and were well supplied with all kitchen utensils, linens, and bath and beach towels. All pools and hot tubs were cleaned daily and were in good working order. Beds were comfortable and well appointed.

Front desk personnel greeted us as if we were old friends and the concierge helped us get good tickets to an excellent show, The One Show, in the Alabama Theatre. We couldn't ask for better service.

We will certainly return to Ocean Boulevard in 2012.

Just returned from a week in a 2BR deluxe in Tower 3 in mid June. Nice layout, good separation of bedroooms and plenty of space. Everything in the unit was essentially as good as new and it was very well equipped. Beds were comfortable. Unit was very clean. It is great for us to be right on the beach in Tower 3 so everyone could come and go at thier leisure. It you care about being on the beach and NOT having to cross the street be very careful when you make reservations. It appears that "deluxe" 2 BR are in beach towers, 2 BR are across the street in Tower 4. Most RCI exchanges automatically go to Tower 4. We did notice long check-in lines and elevator waits on Saturday and some on Sunday due to a high volume. Also had elevator waits in our tower in the mornings and at dinner time. We gave up parking in Towers 1,2, 3 and just parked in the lot a block away. We also need to pay to park out trailer at a rental facility - Wyndham would not accomodate us on site. My only complaints are to the architect who designed two beautiful pools that only get sun from 10am until 2pm even during the longest days of the summer. He also left no room for an outsude snack bar or in pool bar (like at Seawatch). They should at least offer waitered drink service from the snack bar to the pools. Who wants to sit inside waiting for food and drinks to be prepared?

We had two 2-br deluxe units in tower 1 -- lower floors have great ocean views and perfect for three families to share a week's vacation. 6 adults and 5 kids fit nicely into the space. A bit tight for dinner - but overall an excellent vacation.

The resort has many amenities -- pools, exercise room, indoor an outdoor pools. Tower 1,2,3 pools are shaded in the afternoons - a good way to get out of the hot sun for a while. Tower 4 gets sun most of the day.

Rooms are spacious and well appointed. Staff service is excellent and prompt. Parking is the only short coming in Tower 1,2,3 - especially if you have a roof top carrier on your car -- ceiling height is limited by piping hanging down from the ceiling.

We have been to WOB four times -- love both the cottages and the Towers -- a great vacation location. Towers 1,2,3 are more convenient to the beach if you have kids with you.

Just returned from a week in a 3 bedroom in Bldg 4, across the street from the beach. Had the top floor w/great views of lights, arcade area of Main Street, and plenty of the ocean. Additional lights and street activity just added to it all. Location is fantastic, just a block or so down from the old-fashioned Main street, just a few blocks from Highway 17, with ample grocery stores in between. Drive north on Ocean Blvd to Cherry Grove, where Boulineau's grocery store is at Sea Mountain Highway and is a lot more than just a grocery store.

In Building 4, there are 3 elevators, and we never had a long wait at any time. If you are on a high floor in that building, the view as soon as you get off the elevator is breathtaking.

The 3-bedroom was great. Good separation of bedrooms, with one on the right of the entry with a King Bed, another on the left with two Full beds. A bathroom for these rooms was directly to the left as you entered. This unit did not have a tub, but rather a tub-sized shower in the "guest bath" that had no real ledge to keep water from spilling onto the bathroom floor. Master Bedroom, separated from the 2-beds bedroom by its large bathroom, did have a two-man jaccuzi tub and a small shower. All, more than adequate. Beds were comfortable.

Kitchen was fine. Appliances a little outdated, but worked well. Plenty of utensils, etc., for cooking. Living area also nice with couch and three other chairs. Nothing very comfortable, but OK for the time you would likely be spending there. Dining area - round table with 8 chairs, and two barstools at the kitchen bar, to accommodate all if you were actually to have the 10 people this 3-bedroom unit is supposed to be able to sleep (with two on the pull-out sofa).

For a unit accommodating 10, I was disappointed in the size and furnishings of the balcony. It looked even smaller than those for the 1 & 2 bedroom units and had no dining height table. There were two plastic chairs and one small stool-sized table. This worked fine when it was just me and my guy, but was inadequate when others arrived a few days later. I asked for extra chairs from the front desk, and arrived at my room later to see that one had been brought up. I would have preferred a few more - there IS room - but we took chairs from the dining room out and that worked OK. But still - a balcony for 10 should be larger than a balcony for 2 - and should have more chairs, at the very least.

The pool area for Building 4 is huge and gets sun from 8:00 a.m. till after 4:00 p.m. - a lot more than the two across the street, which are shaded by the buildings. There are pretty potted palms that rustle in the breeze.

The beach across the street was easy to get to, despite crossing the street, which, especially on this particular time frame - Memorial Day weekend AND bikefest - was busy at times. The beach was great and the waves drown out a lot of the traffic noise. another.

I will probably choose a smaller place next time I am in the Mytle Beach area, but for what it is, Wyndham OB was great. The rooms were clean, comfy, and had everything you needed for a nice week's stay.
