Hello. I am not a Wyndham owner and can’t speak about the 4 bedrooms. However, I have gone to Hilton Head a few times in March and I stayed at Ocean Boulevard three summers ago on an exchange. My number one point to you is that March in Myrtle Beach will likely be really cold. We have taken several Easter vacation in Hilton Head and have always been disappointed with the weather. We stopped going to the Carolina’s for Easter because the weather is often so cool.
Easter is usually in late March or early April and even then the weather in Hilton Head, which is about 150 miles or so south of Myrtle Beach is usually in the 60’s with a day or two of low 70’s. Occasionally there is an 80 degree day but more times than not we have had 50’s or 60’s and rain. Not the best beach weather. The ocean is freezing, water temps in the 50’s that time of the year.
I was at Ocean Boulevard the first week of August when I went and I thought the ocean front pools were freezing, then. In the summer (and I assume all year) the ocean front pools are covered in almost total shade from the three ocean front buildings. I remember maybe an hour or two around noon when there was sun around the pool decks but that was it. On top of no sun, the buildings funneled the ocean breezes so it was often so breezy near the pools it made me shiver even in the dead of summer. I remember being so cold in those pools and wondering why they weren’t heated. Maybe the pools are heated in March but they certainly are not heated in August.
Ocean Boulevard was a fine property; I just did not like their pool situation at all. All the pools are built over parking garages and are very small and plain. In my opinion, the best and warmest pool is across the street in building four. That pool received almost constant full sun since it is not surrounded by towers like the ocean front pools. The property itself is nice, especially the location. Very easy to walk to a seasonal amusement park (maybe closed in March, though) and a small but nice downtown area.
So long as you are not expecting to sunbath in warm sunshine next to beautiful pools (or the beach) for the bulk of your vacation time, Ocean Boulevard should be a nice vacation. Just prepare and plan for a cool vacation and take full advantage of any warmth and sun you get that week or weekend. Have fun.
