Oceanfront Three Bedroom Condo at Forest Dunes Myrtle Beach If the view that you see when you step out on to your balcony during your Myrtle Beach vacation is one of the most important aspects to consider when it comes to your accommodations decision, then knowing what view you will have is very important!

Let’s first look at the types of views that are typically available at resorts in Myrtle Beach:

Oceanfront: Oceanfront typically means that the unit faces the ocean directly.
Ocean View: Ocean view units are typically on the side of the building, offering a view, although not as good as you could get with an oceanfront room. However, these units are often less expensive than oceanfront.
Angle Oceanfront or Ocean View: These usually sit on an angle, offering a partial view of what you may normally have.
Interior: These units typically do not offer a view of the ocean, but can still be located in a building that is oceanfront, great for those traveling on a budget who want to be close to the ocean.
Non-Oceanfront: These accommodations are usually not in an oceanfront building and may be located across the street but can still be part of an oceanfront property.

Now that we have laid out the different views you may get in Myrtle Beach, let’s check out some of the accommodations that provide the best views, depending on what you are looking for.

Angle Oceanfront Suite at Captain’s Quarters Resort: This unit is one that is great for families as it has two beds, plus a pull-out sofa. Since these suites are on an angle, they offer a partial view of the ocean and the pooldeck including the Island Pool and Shipwreck Lagoon. The balcony on these sits at a 45-degree angle.

Southern View Three Bedroom at Ocean Creek Resort: This resort, located across from Barefoot Landing, has a large array of unit types across its 57 acres. The two towers, located near the ocean, house some of the most popular unit types. One unit type, in fact, was so popular because of the view it offers that it got its own name! The Southern View Three Bedroom Condo is located in the South Tower and provides amazing views of the natural creek, the ocean and the sunset. If you love watching the sun set as it paints the ocean sky, then this is the perfect condo for you!

Oceanfront Three Bedroom Condo at Forest Dunes Resort: Located along Myrtle Beach’s famed Golden Mile, Forest Dunes Resort offers some of the best views in Myrtle Beach. The Oceanfront Three Bedroom Condo exemplifies these views. With a living room featuring floor to ceiling windows with panoramic views, you can look straight out at the ocean or down the beach for miles. Since it is located on the corner of the building, these windows are both on the front and one side of the living room. There is also an oceanfront balcony off of each bedroom and near the living room, offering ample space to enjoy all that the ocean has to offer.
