Oyster Hotel Review

Myrtle Beach Atlantic Palms Oceanfront

Scene

A contemporary beach hotel with large windows and wonderful ocean views

Although the exterior of the 3 Palms Oceanfront Myrtle Beach is painted in a loud, bright orange, the interior atmosphere is relaxed and calm. The spacious and well-lit lobby has gray wooden floors, yellow walls, and lots of multi-colored comfortable seating. The on-site, seasonal restaurant and bar, Horizons, has floor-to-ceiling windows, contemporary and bright seating, and exceptional ocean views. There’s also a bar area with high wooden stools and nice stonework.
