There is nothing like visiting the thirty mile stretch of coastline called the grand strand of the south, which is none other than the captivating Myrtle Beach resort. The beach includes a north part [North Myrtle Beach], a middle part [ Myrtle Beach Middle], and a southern part [South Myrtle Beach]. This particular coastal domain has been the number two vacation spot in America for a while now. Many people decided to move to this semi tropical paradise after having visited this famous grand strand.

Most importantly, what keeps one from fulfilling dreams of vacationing at the beach? More often than not, it is the expenses. The cost of gasoline, oil, bus fare, airfare, a rental car or dependable vehicle, eating, drinking, going to see sights, and kids needs if one is traveling with children. Don't forget the motel! By the time one plans all the rest of the trip to the beach, this part can be forgotten about.This is when most people that live farther away than an hour or two from the ocean just give up their entire dream. Many families do not have the extra money that it takes to have a luxury in their lives, such as a beach vacation.

Fortunately, one can make a dream beach vacation happen in reality. Research done by the author has proven the least expensive motel in all the beaches at Myrtle is the El Dorado, a beautiful family oriented motel, located on the quiet south end of Myrtle Beach. This motel is by far the best overall cost for anyone wanting to stay and play at the beach. There is a cozy, comfortable atmosphere and relaxing in the southern rocking chairs, on the top balcony, especially in the evening, is the ultimate pure southern comfort.

In comparison to other motels in the beach resort area, the El Dorado is less cost, has competitive amenities, and this motel offers direct beach access as well. It is only one mile to Myrtle Beach Airport, close to the Springmaid Pier, three miles from Broadway at the Beach, seven miles from South Carolina's Seafood Capital called Murrells Inlet, and near all amusements and golf courses.(There are many golf courses along the strand.)

In addition, the El Dorado has always been family owned and operated. The staff is very friendly, thoughtful, helpful, and full of that famous southern hospitality. They offer extras like coupons, booklets, brochures, blankets, pillows, ice cream treats, free morning coffee, free breakfast, phone wake up calls, irons, coffee pots, ice, and more. Barbecue grills are available too, in case
