Sands Beach Club Resort - North Myrtle Beach, SC - Beachfront Suites with Ocean Views

The Sands Beach Club Resort is one of many in the Sands line of resorts run by Rawcliffe Resorts, all located in Myrtle Beach. Located in the Arcadian Shores part of Myrtle Beach, the resort is relatively secluded with little else on the surrounding stretch of beach. It is located at 9400 Shore Drive, ten miles from Myrtle Beach International Airport and ten miles from downtown attractions.

Accommodations at the resort are comprised of one and two bedroom suites with ocean views from a private balcony. Guest reviews on TripAdvisor indicate that there are two buildings: a front building with an ocean view and a building behind that which is designed to give every room a view of the water. (These are not the only reviews indicating a conflict between advertisement and reality). The resort has earned a three star rating although many reviews based on quality, value and overall experiences are not as impressed.

Each suite contains a safe, cable television, hair dryer, ironing supplies, climate control, telephone with data port, refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. These are condo style with a dining set and full kitchen complete with utensils and cookware. A typical two bedroom suite has a master bedroom with a queen bed, a guest bedroom with two twin beds and a sleeper sofa in the living room. All suites use key card entry.

Although the resort is not a condo resort like many found in Myrtle Beach there are lots of amenities of which to make use. Beach Club offers both indoor and outdoor pools that are connected to one another, as well as a children's pool. More athletic guests will have access to lighted tennis courts, basketball and volleyball courts, with equipment available for rental. From Memorial Day to Labor Day a kids program is organized that includes activities such as marsh crabbing. Kids twelve years old and under can also eat breakfast for free. There is an outdoor grill area and a restaurant called Toppers at the Point Oceanfront Restaurant and Bar and lunch is free in the summer. Coin laundry services and an ATM machine are also available on premises. The resort's banquet and conference facilities are also popular.

Guests also have access to the Sands Water Park five miles down the beach at a different resort by presenting a wrist band. The water park has water slides, waterfalls, a lazy river and a bubble pool. While there is an onsite exercise facility the resort also offers a Health Club that Sands Beach Club resort guests can use at the Ocean Dunes Resort and Villas location. The Health Club has treadmills, bicycles, an indoor swimming pool and weight lifting equipment. Personal trainers and nutritionists are also available. Health Club visitors will also find a massage parlor, whirlpool and sauna for post-workout relaxation.

Sands Beach Club Resort has a concierge service to make arrangements for entertainment and activities. After making a reservation, they will help plan what the guest wants to do and have the tickets for them at check in. Entertainment packages are available at a discounted rate. The service is even available to make recommendations at the Concierge Desk.
