Myrtle Beach, SC motel market

The Myrtle Beach lodging market, by the numbers

According to the US Census Bureau's County Business Patterns (2022), Horry County — which contains Myrtle Beach — has 212 accommodation establishments employing 6,893 people. Of those, 190 are traveler-accommodation businesses and 186 are hotels and motels specifically. Most are small, owner-operated properties competing for the same calls — independents like Roxanne Towers, Atlantica, and Breakers sit on the same booking searches as the national chains, but without a 24/7 front desk behind them. OpenStreetMap currently maps 206 named lodging properties in and around Myrtle Beach (153 hotels, 52 motels), of which at least 76% are independent — exactly the operators who lose peak-season calls to voicemail because the owner is the entire staff.
