My wife and I have been searching for an annual beach vacation resort. Hawaii has been our preferred location but it has been several years since we have been to the islands. Our problem is many of our friends and family can't afford the trip plus I am not crazy about the late night flights back, not to mention the trip is not easy on our budget.
As of now we love Panama City Beach and Destin as our beach destination. We went their for the first time last summer and have already booked a trip for next summer. We love the clear water and we can use our Southwest credit card to get free flights. I love the Wyndham Panama City Beach resort as it is an easy walk to a couple of restaurants we really like and every unit has a beach front view. We will split our time between Destin and PCB as we also loved Destin. I bought a CA resale to give us an edge in booking and have been thinking of getting a Wyndham PCB Vacation resale if it ever comes up.
Before I would by at a specific property I want to check out a couple of other options and from what I have read I think we may really like Myrtle Beach. We enjoy family orientated shows such as you would find in Branson Missouri and it appears Myrtle Beach would have similar shows. I really love places where you can eat and have a drink right on the beach and if we can walk to such places all the better.
So this leads me to ask some questions about the Myrtle Beach resorts. I seems like the boardwalk would be an area I would like, but none of the Wyndham resorts are that close. We will probably book at the Sea Watch Plantation, mainly because it is 10 miles closer to the MB boardwalk and my guess closer to the theaters. The membership directory states it is on restaurant row so are the restaurants on the beach or set back a bit?
There are a few Wyndham resorts in North Myrtle Beach so do many of you prefer that area and if so why? I admit I am starting to really look forward to the MB vacation even though it is a couple of years away. If we really like it then we would have to consider a resale purchase at one of the resorts. So any thoughts appreciated, especially from those of you that can compare Myrtle Beach with Destin and PCB.
