The Best Pools in Myrtle Beach

This hotel on the south side of Myrtle Beach is deceptively impressive. The small covered pool area is actually a water wonderland. The retractable roof allows for sun or protection from rain. The waterslides are a thrill for adults and kids, and the pool area also features hot tubs, a lazy river, and a kids’ splash park with a yellow submarine. But the best offerings are on the oceanside, which includes two spacious pools, hot tubs, a waterslide, and the top shuffleboard courts in town.

This multi-building complex encompasses tons of water-related fun that makes it one of the best pools in Myrtle Beach for families. A giant pirate ship is the centerpiece of a children’s water playground with shallow water and small slides, and you’ll notice statues of pirates throughout the facility. Bigger kids and adults will enjoy The Cove, the oceanfront indoor water park that offers four fun slides, rain or shine. With 19 total water features, vacationers can take advantage of many outdoor pools and hot tubs, a winding indoor/outdoor lazy river, indoor pools, and more.

Beach Cove Resort is home to one of the best pools in Myrtle Beach thanks to its tropical outdoor oasis full of pools and privacy. The outdoor pool deck features oceanfront pools and whirlpools surrounded by palm trees and bubbling fountains. Keep the kids busy with the 350-foot lazy river or let them play under the fun mushroom-shaped fountain in their own kiddie pool. When you need a break from these 10 amazing water features, Breeze’s Beach Bar and Grill and the Tipsy Turtle Beach Bar are open seasonally and serve cocktails and snacks.

This North Myrtle Beach resort is one of a kind and offers great water amenities and pools. Topping the list are two lazy rivers, a kiddie pool, and a variety of hot tubs.

The list of water amenities at this multi-building complex is long and comes with all the usual features, plus some unusual extras. The indoor pool provides year-round fun, and the outdoor pool, lazy river, and kids’ waterpark will meet your expectations and keep children busy, but the seventh floor is where the Caravelle sets itself apart. This area features an outdoor sun deck that allows you to soak up some rays without the beach crowds, and a glass-enclosed pool that literally lets you swim in the sky. The St. Clement’s Beach Bar nearby is a great place to hang out and play beach volleyball with locals.

Often considered the best pool in Myrtle Beach, the indoor water park at this property has something for every kid or kid at heart, and the outdoor amenities are just as nice. Thanks to the 30,000 square feet of water fun, you can park the car at check-in and leave it there until check-out. The north tower includes thrilling waterslides and the south tower features a lazy river and a kids’ zone with a shallow pool outfitted with sprinklers, waterfall buckets, and a submarine play area. The indoor water park is heated and fully enclosed seasonally so you can enjoy it any time you visit.

This is the best pool in Myrtle Beach for a winter getaway or a summer escape. When it’s cool outside, the Grande Cayman can enclose a large portion of its waterworks to make it feel like summertime year-round. A large pool and lazy river are heated to the perfect temperature and the sauna and hot tubs are always comfortable and relaxing. The outdoor amenities allow you to enjoy the summer sun on the oceanfront pool deck, complete with hot tubs, sun lounges, and a seasonal water park.

North Beach Resort & Villas is all about luxury, and its stunning poolscape is anything but ordinary. The Caribbean-themed pool is one of the best hotel pools in the Myrtle Beach area.

The swim-up bar is not to be missed—it’s received accolades from TripAdvisor as the best pool in the United States.

While many choose Bay View for its excellent Boardwalk location, the water amenities at this resort are also some of the best. This hotel has an appealing poolscape to enjoy whether you’re with your family or in town on a couples getaway. The indoor pool, hot tub, and lazy river are warmed just right for a relaxing soak or float, and the outdoor splash deck lets kids play and have fun all day.
