We stayed at this resort approximately 18 years ago and it was very good value for the money. We had a housekeeping unit and the rooms were very clean and and the staff friendly and always ready to help. We visited Myrtle Beach in August of this year (2009) and decided we would stay at the Wave Rider. Due to... more

If you are thinking about staying here think twice. I'm in the Army at Fort Bragg, about to be deployed and came down here with a friend last minute. We knew we would stay at a budget hotel by the beach so I was thrilled when I stopped at a gas station and picked up the supersaver publication and found... more

I would like to start by saying I have been staying here for 4 years now. We fell in love with this place and the employees when we first stayed here. This year was not the same for us. The worse part was how rude the staff was with us. I raise my kids to respect people and when they... more

The table was broken, the fabric of the chair arm was ripped, the sliding door lock was very flimsy, carpet was filthy. That room was room 134. We talked to the lady at... more

my boyfriend and i made reservations to stay in this hotel based on good reviews from my parents. after arriving there i was not pleased at all with the way things were. the floor was filthy, the dishes were still dirty, there was a blood stain on the shower curtain that most certainly did not come from either my boyfriend... more

Better not say their names but they know their stuff and take hospitality seriously (and personally). The suites are upgraded according to a schedule and I noticed the last time I stayed at the Wave Rider, we were provided hospitality packs with a few samples of useful things, money savers that turned out to be more than 'ol coupon pack... more
