OCEAN VIEWS FROM THE DECK
One of the best things about The Crab Shack is the view.
Step outside onto the deck and savor gorgeous ocean vistas while sipping your morning coffee, planning the day`s adventures, or calming after an afternoon on the beach.
There`s something about seeing the Atlantic that makes it official:
You`re on vacation.
STEPS FROM THE BEACH
Forget loading everybody into the car just to get to the ocean.
At The Crab Shack, the beach is just steps away.
Head down early for sunrise.
Come back to the home for lunch.
Return for another afternoon swim.
Then walk back down in the evening for a sunset walk.
Being this close to the beach makes spontaneous trips to the sand painless — exactly the way a Myrtle Beach vacation should be.

FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN
Vacation meals are easy with a full kitchen at your fingertips.
Prepare breakfast before heading to the beach, make sandwiches for lunch, or gather everybody together for dinner at home.
When nobody wants to prepare, you`re also close to plenty of eateries throughout Myrtle Beach, Surfside Beach, and Murrells Inlet — from fresh seafood and burgers to pizza and ice cream.
