Editorial
Hotel overview
Royal Garden Resort offers a relaxed, beachfront setting in Murrells Inlet with direct access to the coast and scenic views. This 2-star property blends vacation condos with hotel comforts, featuring both indoor and outdoor pools ideal for all seasons. Guests appreciate the family-friendly amenities, including kid’s pools and accessible facilities, making it a popular choice for travelers seeking value and convenience near the water.
The mix of privately owned units brings unique decor and a homely feel to each stay, while the on-site restaurant and The Salty Pickle bar offer casual dining options without leaving the resort. Despite some needed updates to common areas, the property maintains cleanliness according to guest feedback and holds a convenient location close to popular spots like Brookgreen Gardens and the Murrells Inlet Marsh Walk.
Complaints mainly center on limited parking space and occasional elevator issues, but many find the proximity to golf courses and recreation lively enough to make up for minor inconveniences. The resort caters mostly to visitors looking for beachfront access, reasonable rates, and a laid-back atmosphere that combines nature, dining, and recreation.

A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Have stayed here several times. Condos are always clean. Always enjoy our time here”
“It was more than my expectations!! Very clean and beautiful!! In the bar downstairs "The Salty Pickle" is a plus their food is wonderful their drinks are the best and it's very affordable!!”
“Royal Garden Resort is NOT a hotel. Each unit is privately owned, furnished and decorated. However, many are vacation rentals. Recommended vacation realty companies include: Dunes Realty and Garden City Realty.”
“great place seated right on the beachfront. well kept , very clean. great bar on the ground floor with great food at a great price . all rooms will have their own character to them , all owned by different people . im sure any room you get will be worth your time and money for your stay. the one and only issue there is the parking lot is not quite enough for the amount of rooms available. it is about 1 floor shy in my opinion to be able to accommodate.”
“My first time staying at royal garden resort and was very pleased all around I've stayed at many other resorts like crown reef and Caribbean and I was amazed with how clean royal garden was from the room to the parking garage to the beach the resort does a great job keeping everything clean and it's nice having the salty pickle on site is nice if you don't feel like leaving after a long day on the beach. We stayed the week in room 407 and it was great had everything you could possibly need very well equipped and amazing patio furniture with great views of the beach ocean and pool”
“I rented the unit through AIRBNB, unit was nice , clean and with all necessary equipment to cook , clean and be good for the entire week. Elevators are old and one stop working multiple times during the week. Parking lot with plenty room and multiple levels. Restaurant offers decent wings and quick bites for a reasonable price. Cocktails are not good at all but worth the price. Building needs many updates , looks are not the greatest however the pool area and directly access to the beach make this place so much better.”
