We like to rent the condos on Shore Drive from Myrtle Beach Vacation Rentals. They have anywhere from 1 to 3 bedrooms, each property has a pool, and they can be either water front or second row, or even one block from the beach with an easy walk. That means that they are also available at a variety of prices. DM me if you would like more information and I'll be happy to help. We have three kids (4,3 and 11 months), so we know what you mean. I wouldn't want to stay in a highrise either.
