The Club Wyndham SeaWatch Resort is an oceanfront property on the northern end of Myrtle Beach, SC. This resort is a perfect destination for both adult and family travelers, with amenities and activities for all. The views and grounds are stunning, the staff is friendly and helpful and the suites are updated and spacious.

Read on for our review of our recent getaway at the Club Wyndham SeaWatch!
Check-In
Check-in was an easy (and enjoyable!) process thanks to friendly service, spiked eggnog, fresh popcorn, and gift bags with locally made taffy. We opted for a lobby check-in, but many others utilized the car-side check-in option that was offered outside.
We arrived early and our room wasn’t ready but I was able to get checked-in, receive our wristbands, and go through the obligatory timeshare pitch easily. The timeshare sales agent wasn’t pushy and accepted my “no, thank you” with grace. She went on to give me local shopping and dining recommendations which were much appreciated.
While we waited for our room to be ready we decided to slide on our wrist bands and explore the property.

The Property
Naturally the first place we wanted to explore was the beach. We visited in November so it was too cold to lay out on the beach or swim in the ocean, but the view from the boardwalk over the dunes was amazing! The Wyndham SeaWatch is directly on the ocean with access from three boardwalks, so there is plenty of space to accommodate beachgoers in the summer months. Access to the beach from the boardwalk is via stairs or a ramp, which is helpful for beach carts and those with mobility issues.

In terms of views the property is almost as picturesque as the beach itself. Everywhere you look there are lagoons, fountains, flowers and palm trees, and of course sparkling pools and hot tubs. In total there are 5 buildings surrounding a lagoon, 5 outdoor pools (all year round, some heated), 2 indoor pools, 9 outdoor hot tubs, 2 indoor hot tubs, 2 lazy rivers and a kid’s pool. One of the pools was closed due to a recent hurricane, but with so many other options we certainly didn’t miss it. In fact, we didn’t use the same hot tub twice and still didn’t hit them all!

In addition to water based activities there is also a kids play area, a shuffleboard court, corn hole facilities, a gym, a firepit, a putting green, a business center and a craft room. There is no shortage of activities to keep adults and kids occupied!

| Something for the little ones |
Although we did not visit during the height of tourist season, we were hardly the only people there. We were very impressed during our visit with how well kept and clean the grounds were; there was not a stray piece of trash anywhere. This attention to detail carried over into the holiday decorations that were being put up during our stay. It was evident at every turn that a great deal of care and thought goes into the upkeep, maintenance and overall presentation of this resort.

There is a restaurant on site and a seasonal beach bar. We had a full kitchen in our suite so we didn’t use these, but I can imagine the tiki bar is hopping in the height of summer!
The Suite
And speaking of our suite at the Wyndham SeaWatch, we were not disappointed! We stayed in a two bedroom, two bath villa with a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and ocean view balcony. Like the rest of the property, the suite was pristine when we arrived. We appreciated the granite countertops in the kitchen and the bathrooms, the fixins’ for coffee in the morning, and the overall spaciousness of the unit. There were only two of us on this trip, but with 2 queen sized beds, 1 king sized bed and a pull-out sofa we could have brought the whole family and been very comfortable.

Activities Onsite
We’ve stayed at several timeshare and all-inclusive resorts over the years and I have never seen more or better organized on-site activities than what is offered at the Wyndham SeaWatch. Daily activities for adults and kids include yoga, water aerobics, crafts in the adorably decorated craft room, rubber ducky races in the lazy river, game shows, bingo, dance lessons, shuffleboard tournaments, a murder mystery dinner, fishing, a firepit singalong with s'mores, and the list goes on. They even have a wine and cheese reception at the beginning of the week to go over all the available activities. We were blown away by how much there was to do, much of it free or at a nominal charge. All of the activities staff that we met were friendly and kind and seemed to genuinely care about the experiences of guests.

The Area
The Wyndham SeaWatch is on the northern end of Myrtle Beach close to golf courses, the Tanger outlets, Barefoot Landing and many other shops and restaurants. We found the location to be easy to reach and convenient. Myrtle Beach itself is about an hour and a half from I-95, making it a couple-nights stop over option for those on an east coast road trip.
Conclusion
Our only complaint about the Club Wyndham SeaWatch was that we couldn’t stay longer! We enjoyed our time here very much and would recommend this resort without hesitation to anyone traveling to Myrtle Beach. The location, amenities and service simply cannot be beat.
As always, if you’d like to visit the Wyndham Seawatch or need help with any other travel we’re happy to help!
