Festiva's Ellington at Wachesaw East Resort - Murrells Inlet

I really enjoyed the stay. It was a nice area. The maids didn't come clean or do anything for the three nights we were there. I was a little concerned about the issue of them not visiting the room on a daily basis.

We had a soccer tournament in Pawleys Island and a bunch of us stayed here? Central to MB and Pawleys..20 mins either way!! Great condo!!! indoor pool was hit with the kids because the weather was still cool...Outdoor pool very nice, grounds are beautiful...they have a miniature golf on site, a grill area for a cook out...VERY NICE!!! One con - this […] was prepaid with hotels.com and the hotel charged my card again after I verified at check out they wouldn't because I read on reviews they have habit of that..had to call and get a refund after going though all of it....but overall!! Great getaway with the kids and friends!! One bedrooms on the other side Are not up to date as much as the Festival side, but this is a timeshare resort also so they stay on one side and show them what they would pay for!!! Read more

Not on the beach, but only minutes away. Great resort for my family of 5.

The staff was very helpful. The furniture (sofa's) are worn down and uncomfortable. The hotel was clean. The location is perfect for those who love the South end of Myrtle Beach such as Murrells Inlet and Pawleys Island.

I paid for the stay in full through hotels.com. No problems there. We checked in on a Sunday. On Friday room charges showed up on our credit card. I called the front desk and they saw that the charges were in error and reversed them. Well, a week later, AFTER we checked out, I was reviewing my account this morning, a week AFTER check out, there are […] the same charges in my account again!!!! Now no one seems to know what to do at the hotel. I am not happy and will NOT stay at this property or it's sister properties ever again. If you do, DO NOT give them a credit card for "incidentals"!!! Read more

We arrived about 9:30pmat night and check I was smooth and quick. We got. Map which showed our room which was across the complex. The buildings were numbered BUT the 2nd floor entrances from outside we're not labeled Nd we were not told our room was up the front stairs. We wandered looking for our room for at least 15 mins before trying our key on an […] unlabeled door or two. Other than the map, the hotel was very nice, well priced and convenient. Read more

The resort was nice and the room was clean and it was close to a lot of great places to eat. I like the fact that they give you a pass to the State Park that is close by so you can go to the beach there and it is very close. The only complaint that I have and this has nothing to do with Hotels.com but we had also booked 3 nights at this resort through […] our timeshare. We had to change rooms after one night and the people at the front desk were not very accomodating as far as helping us switch rooms. They did not communicate to housekeeping to clean our new room first. Then we went to check to see if our new room was ready, they locked us out of our current room. Other than that our stay was great! Read more

very comfortable, quiet

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our room was very clean. The furnishings were very nice and the bed was comfortable. The walls needed to be painted but the carpeting and flooring was very clean. Screened porch was not as expected or described - very small, but equipped with a ceiling fan, which was nice. There were no fry or saute pans provided in the kitchen. Pretty hard to fry […] an egg for breakfast with no fry or saute pan. Other than that, we were very pleased with the room. The passes they provide you with for the state parks are a plus! We thoroughly enjoyed Huntington Beach State Park! Nice bike trail for those of you who cycle that starts in Murrells Inlet and goes down to Pawley's Island. Read more

Wonderful place,price was great, excellent stay. Large condo, parking not great, but service great, loved the porch. Little far from mytle beach.

Great hotel, three nights of joy, I will stay again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We were pleased to be within a few minutes of myrtle beach, within miles of activities. We had no complaints.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent place to stay for family. Not directly on the beach. They provided a pass for for one of the state beaches which was a lot less crowed. Seperate rooms for adults and kids was a plus.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Dirty outside porch chairs, not enough pans, no counter space, little mold, small room, small pool towels, small shower, did not like that there was a charge for clean linen Nice friendly staff, complimentary state park tag which was lovely

The apartment needed to be painted in all rooms. The carpet was old. The furniture was dated. They are in the process of remodeling and they do the work in phases. I would request an upgraded room

Genuine Expedia guest review

The kitchen was well equipped and seemed very clean but the bathroom was a different story. The back of the door to the toilet and tub was caked in dust and dirt in the corner (on the door, the frame and the floor). The tile throughout the unit did not look or feel clean. The tub drained so slowly that our showers were taken in standing water. We reported […] the issue and maintenance came the next day. They were there for just a few minutes. The problem was actually worse after they left. The walls in the bathroom and hall in particular were dirty, stained and chipped. The housekeeper who came for the "Mid Week Tidy" asked us if we had received a fresh set of towels. We told her that we had not and she said we could ask the office for them. She said that she would ask them as well. We did call the office and asked if she had requested towels for us. We were told she had not so we requested them. We did not receive a second set of towels. It would have been nice to have them because we did need them and had to wash the ones in the unit at the coin laundry on the property which does not have a change machine. We rented a one bedroom unit which we did not know are all on the top floor of the building. An inconvenience to the design of this property is that these 2nd floor units are entered by stairs that go directly to the door of the unit. You must walk up a curb through a mulch bed on an incline to get to the stairs. Read more

Pass to the beach was definitely worth it. It was also nicely decorated and clean. The only issue was concerning the garbage disposal and shower door. Otherwise, it was great.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We stayed overnight visiting some friends. It was nice to have a bedroom separate from the living room and kitchen. Walls are thin so we could hear people upstairs moving a lot. Bed wasn't that comfortable but still for the price it was nice. And apparently if you come in early enough in the day they offer a pass to the gardens for free so that is a […] nice perk. Read more

Overall our stay here was quite enjoyable. Villas were very nice, spacious and very clean. Several pools on the property and good hours to take advantage of those as well. Overall I would rate it 4 stars. The only suggestion for improvement would be to assign a parking spot to a villa. Many times you can't even park near the building you are in and […] having a spot assigned to a villa would be a great improvement. Would stay again. Read more

Staff was very friendly and helpful. It is my understanding from another guest that they are remodeling the facility, however my room was wonderful even before any new improvements. Everything was in working order and clean.

Genuine Expedia guest review

They are in the process of updating all the rentals. We stayed in a one bedroom with 2 teens that had not been updated. However we were pleasantly surprised. We had enough room to accommodate all. The kitchen was very nice with tile and granite, the living room had a flat screen tv, the bathroom was nice but some wear and tear was visible on the tile, […] sink and tub. All the rentals have screened in balconies. I had to dust the light fixtures in the kitchen. I guess those go unnoticed by cleaning crews. There are grills and fire pits on the premises, an out and indoor pool. Over all the place is very nice and located in a nice area. My one suggestion would be to stay in a deluxe rental as those have been upgraded. Read more

This is a very nice golf resort with a friendly staff. I would be happy to stay here again. If you are not a golfer who gets up early in the morning, ask for a room away from the golf course

I loved our villa. I had my husband, brother daughter and I and we loved every bit of our stay. It was close to all of the shopping and close to the beach. It was amazing to sit on the screened in balcony and relax with my family and just talked. I would refer this place to everyone. Very clean, great friend front desk, wonderful wifi and great location […] all in all great place! Read more

I have few issues with our stay, first of all the location of our room was behind the bushes and behind those bushes was a baseball field. Construction was going on within five hundred yards and it was a continuous banging. You could hear all the air-conditioning of all other guest. The pool was nice and relaxing. Wi-Fi reception was very poor in the […] rooms, but it was free. Their customer service was excellent. Read more

Did not offer maid service everyday. When we asked for more towels the staff were not friendly. Other than that it was a nice stay. The room was very nice and clean. The hotel was in a good location to Murrell's Inlet and Huntington Beach State Park. At check in we were given a pass to Huntington Beach State Park which was nice and we were not expecting […] it. The Huntington Beach State Park is why we stayed at this hotel because it was close and we the Park. Internet was awful at the hotel. But other than that we enjoyed it and will stay there again.

My husband and I took our two year old, my brother in law and his girlfriend. There was more than enough room for all of us, and all the staff were extremely friendly.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Overall the room was just what we were looking for. The room had two bedrooms and a pull out couch so the three of us had our own place to sleep. The only issue i had was the suites are connected together with a door in the middle. The floors are all laminate so sound between the two suites caries under the gap in the door. We could clearly hear the […] other families conversations from next door, and im sure they could hear us also. I would also recommend an upstairs room if you like to sleep in the morning we had kids running around upstairs early every morning. I would stay here again, but would probably stuff a towel or two under the door. Only other issue is that the internet connection was very slow and was only stable in the back bedroom. Read more

This resort needs extensive updating and cleaning. Our unit needed painting, new furniture and carpet. I also needs more kitchen accessories such as pots and pans.

This is a Beautiful hotel! The room was amazing and the view from our balcony was even better! I really enjoyed the firplace, Jacuzzi tub's and how well organized everything was.

Very nice golf resort in a great location if you are looking for something away from the congested part of the area. Lots of restaurants and things to do close by. Big plus was the resort providing a SC State Park pass for use at the beaches, which were wonderful. The resort grounds were well kept and pretty with the landscaping. We had an "updated" […] one bedroom unit while our friends had an "older dated" one bedroom unit. There was a visible difference and hopefully soon they will have all units updated. It was a very quiet resort at this time of year. The staff was nice when we had contact with them upon check in and check out. The pool was large and clean and centrally located to our unit. The music around the pool was just the right volumn and great to listen to. We would sit on the wonderful screened in porches and still hear the music from the pool just across the way. The porches even had ceiling fans which were nice. We do plan to return in the future when we get the opportunity. Read more

I recently stayed at the facility during Bike Week. The facility is very nice. Our room was well appointed and up to date. We had a couple of minor maintenance related issues but none that were significant with the room. We did experience a significant problem with the building parking area. During our stay we experienced a heavy rainfall. The rainfall […] resulted in flooding of the parking area. The parking lot flooded because one or more of the sewer drains were clogged to the extent that no water could evacuate through them. This resulted in damage to several motorcycles that were parked in the lot. The water depth was well over10 to 12 inches in many parts of the lot. Aside from the flooding issue which I will assume was just a fluke, I would recommend the facility to others. As a matter of fact I have already reserved a villa for the fall! Read more

Checkin was great they allowed me to checkin before 3:30 p.m. keep was cool. Hotel grounds were clean and quiet. Furniture in the room was OK but the couch should of been leather instead of a cotton fabric. Other than that .. Cool spot.
