We loved our stay. The room was very clean & fit our needs. Jay was very helpful & nice. The checkin was simple. I would book this room again. This was actually our 2nd tine staying in that room.
Always a fun spot for our family to stay at the beach. We love the location. We love the atmosphere around the area and always look forward to a fun retreat away to this place.
Were to begin...no carts anywhere to be found to haul our luggage. Parking was convenient but a wall blocked access to room, so it was a long walk around to haul everything. Upon entering the room, we saw a dead Palmetto bug in the middle of the floor and found out later the room had not been cleaned for 2 weeks prior to our arrival. Room was too crowded with furniture, broken pictures on the wall, and cracked tiles on floor. Bathroom light sometimes worked and sometimes not. Bathroom fan was struggling to work because it was loaded with dust. The toilet was low flush and frequently needed plunging to make it operational. Shower handle was also needing maintenance as it was falling off the wall. That night we found bedbugs in our bed which were quickly taken care of by the exterminator 2 DAYS LATER (no reimbursement or compensation was offered). The indoor pool was closed for repairs (not mentioned until after payment was made). Plus side, Beach was convenient and only steps away. This was a main floor apartment and gave access to a nice yard & hammocks. A lot of beach toys and chairs in the closet (but don't plan on hanging clothes in there - no room with all the other items). Owner was responsive and seemed courteous, but we had no personal contact with him. We will not be back to this hotel.
The room was pleasant, the only issue was the shower which I informed the owner of. Otherwise it was a great time for all. The owner of the condo was great to work with and very communicative.
Location makes a big difference. You could just pick a chair and walk to the beach in couple minutes, without going though elevators, without walking for blocks, without stress of packing chairs/umbrellas/drinks as you could comeback for anything back to the unit.
Unit is well stocked with all that I needed. Parking is plenty across the street. Easy access to unit from side of building for dropoff/pickup from car.
Good onboarding, checkout instructions and timely responsive communications.

Nice for a weekend getaway. The owners were super to work with. The cleaning service could certainly do a better job for them. It was ok, just small things like cleaning in the corners, cleaning the sliding glass doors. Definitely take your own sheets and pillow cases, for comfort. The linens were clean, just kind of scratchy. Great location, very family friendly, parking was good.
We love this place! The location, distance to the beach, just enough space with great possibilities! The kids love the beach toys always left to use and it means we don’t have to worry about traveling with so much sand back home! Our children are 8 and 10 so the couch is just enough but may have to bring a blow up mattress in the next few years so no arguments of space LOL… the location is worth the space size, we are only in the room to sleep! 😉the kitchen is well stocked with the basic items to enjoy an easy meal and a grocery store is about a mile away to stock up when you arrive! The host is very easy to contact as well. We love the walking options to go to places to eat and if you want to venture out you are not far from many great places! We love the atmosphere of the surrounding places!! Ready to book again for next year!
Jay and Susan have a lovely condo on the ground floor!! Not waiting for elevators was an extra bonus. But the condo was perfect! The decor was nice! The bed is very comfortable!! And the views right from your balcony are Gods paintbrush! We saw the sun rise and the moon rise in one day!! So beautiful! I loved the location as well. Close enough to the boardwalk to shop, but far enough that the beach population wasnt over crowded. Short drive to famous restaurants and sites!!
Jay was quick to respond to any emails I sent along the way!!!
It really was the perfect Myrtle Beach escape! Thank you Jay and Susan!! We will he back!!
We cannot stress enough, how great it was to stay at Jay and Susan’s Beachfront apartment! Very short walk just outside to the beach, the apartment itself was super clean and was very comfortable. Myrtle Beach itself was a great time. We will certainly be booking here in the future.
We had a great time in Myrtle Beach. This place was amazing and the owners were so pleasant to deal with. Great communication from the time of booking and always very friendly.
Easy access to the room upon arrival and it was clean and tidy and had all the amenities we needed. The views from the room are spectacular, nothing beats enjoying the sunrise while drinking coffee on the porch in the rocking chairs. A few short steps and you can have your toes in the sand, jump in the pool, or enjoy the hot tub. We loved being able to stroll the beach looking for shells just steps from the room.
The resort itself was nice and clean. We always felt safe, and they had security walking the grounds often as well. Never had any issues.
Resort is located in a fairly central area where it's only a short drive to Broadway on the beach, outlet shopping center and all other attractions.
We will most certainly stay here again when we visit the area, and will highly recommend to everyone.
This condo was the perfect location and had everything we needed for a couples getaway. I loved being on the first floor. The weather was a bit chilly but it was as if I was on the beach sitting on the balcony. It was very clean and exactly as pictured. We had a wonderful week and would definitely stay again. Thank you

My niece and I come every year and do our Christmas shopping. We love it because the view is amazing as well as the location. It is close to many shopping centers and restaurants. It is an awesome weekend of all my favorite things my niece, shopping, eating and the beach. This is the perfect location for us to bring everything together in and wrap also. We plan on coming back yearly.
Love stepping off the balcony and being only steps away from the beach.. The condo was clean and comfortable. The host was very quick to respond to our messages. We will be booking this room again in the future.
Condo was very nice. A few updates would make it perfect. Had a wonderful time. Thank you.

About the host
Hosted by Jay Welborn
My wife and I met at Myrtle Beach AFB back in the late 80's while I was stationed there as a young Airman. After we married, we spent the next 20+ years traveling all over the world as a member of the Air Force to include Japan, Hawaii, and Germany. When we came to our final station at Shaw AFB in Sumter SC before retirement, we immediately came to the beach to catch up on old memories. By this time we had 5 children and we wanted a place where we could bring the kids to the enjoy the beach. After searching many condos, we fell in love with the Caravelle Resort the moment we came upon the grounds. This was the one. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we love visiting here ourselves.
Why they chose this property
The Caravelle offers so much for family members of all ages. It's close to the thick of things that Myrtle Beach has to offer without being to close to the downtown traffic and "rowdy" crowds. The Caravelle is the best family vacation place and thus was an easy choice when we decided to buy.
What makes this property unique
The views from the balcony rocking chairs are our favorite spot to watch wildlife like dolphins, gulls, and pelicans as well as listen to the ocean waves crashing on the shore; absolutely our favorite part of our condo. Of course the kids LOVE the swimming pool areas, lazy river and swimming/walking the beach looking for shells.
