DoubleTree Resort

Set across 27 acres on the south end of Ocean Boulevard, DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Myrtle Beach Oceanfront is built like a coastal campus rather than a single high-rise. Myrtle Beach State Park sits right next door, and Springmaid Pier is close enough to make sunrise walks and quick fishing breaks part of the routine. The location also keeps you near Myrtle Beach International Airport and The Market Common, both within a short drive, which helps when your group is arriving in waves.

Spread out amenities give this resort its day-to-day identity. Beach access is the centerpiece, backed up by indoor and outdoor pools plus two lazy rivers that keep downtime easy when the weather changes or the schedule needs a buffer. Outdoor furniture, loungers, and poolside space create natural meet-up zones where smaller subgroups can gather without everyone needing the same plan at the same time. For multi-day stays, that variety matters because it gives people options without splitting the block across multiple properties.

Dining stays contained on site, which reduces the arrival-night scramble and makes it easier to keep a group moving on a shared timeline. Ocean Blue is positioned as an all-day option with buffet breakfast and familiar American dishes, while Southern Tide Bar and Grille leans more casual for beachside bites and drinks. A pool bar adds a simple, predictable place to regroup between activities, especially when you want everyone in the same orbit but do not want to schedule a full sit-down meal.

Meeting space is a major strength here, and it is one of the reasons the resort works for conferences, trainings, and large social events. You have 22 meeting rooms and roughly 38,000 square feet of total event space, anchored by larger rooms that can handle big agendas without forcing your group off property. Several ballrooms and flexible outdoor areas give planners options for a morning program, an afternoon breakout schedule, and an evening reception, all without building a transportation plan around every segment of the day.

Coordinating a room block on the beach always comes with a few practical considerations, traffic patterns, parking needs, and the fact that people tend to move around more when the ocean is right there. This resort makes that easier by offering clear rally points, atrium and lobby touchpoints, pool decks, and outdoor gathering areas where groups can set a default meeting spot. The airport proximity also helps when you are rotating staff, adding nights, or managing late arrivals, since it reduces transfer time and the odds of missed check-ins.

Engine.com supports this property by handling the mechanics that usually create the most group travel headaches. You can request a room block that matches your headcount and dates, keep the rooming list organized, and manage changes as timelines shift. Direct Bill is available when you want payment handled through one workflow, which helps avoid chasing individual folios when rooms are added, extended, or reassigned.
