The Caravelle Resort turns 50 in 2010!

The Caravelle Resort is proud to celebrate our 50th Anniversary this year.  March 1 marks the 50th birthday for us after the Caravelle Motel (above) opened its doors in 1960.  We've come a long way since we opened for business as a 27 room motel with several expansions and renovations along the way, growing to where we are today - a nine building, 500 unit resort offering rooms, one bedroom suites and two and three bedroom condos. 

Through the years, The Caravelle has become a true landmark in Myrtle Beach and has helped to pave the way for Myrtle Beach to become a great place for families, golfers, couples and other beach-goers to take a vacation.  In 1962 The Caravelle offered the first golf package in Myrtle Beach history,  which eventually helped lead Myrtle Beach to become known as the Golf Capital of the World and home of over 100 golf courses.  Other firsts that The Caravelle introduced to Myrtle Beach were the first on-site restaurant at a motel property, first covered pool and first ever kids club!

What has helped make The Caravelle such a great place after all these years is the great guests that we've had through the years and the many friendships that we've made.  From the folks who have continued staying with us since the original motel was built and have brought three generations of their family to The  Caravelle and Myrtle Beach, to those who have just recently experienced our resort for the first time, we are privileged to serve all of the wonderful people who stay with us.  Thank you to all of you who have helped make us a great place to stay!
