This post is in partnership with Kingston Resorts, Embassy Suites

If you’re looking for a beach getaway that keeps everyone happy — from toddlers who just want to splash to parents who just want five quiet minutes — Kingston Resorts in Myrtle Beach might be your new go-to. We recently spent a weekend at the Embassy Suites Myrtle Beach Resort, one of Kingston Resorts’ oceanfront properties, and came home with a phone full of photos and a list of reasons you need to book a stay.

Here’s a look at what a family weekend at Kingston Resorts can look like, pools, slides, and all.

Where to Stay

We checked in at the Embassy Suites Myrtle Beach Resort, a two-room suite hotel just steps from the sand. Every stay includes a complimentary full breakfast and an evening reception, which is a nice built-in break for parents who don’t want to think about one more meal. Kingston Resorts also has condos, villas, and the Hilton Myrtle Beach Resort next door if your family needs more room to spread out.

Splash All Day at Currents Seaside Entertainment

This is the part your kids will beg to hear about. Currents Seaside Entertainment sits right next to the Embassy Suites and is home to waterslides, multiple pools, and a dedicated kiddie area for the littlest swimmers. Older kids can spend hours on the slides while little ones splash safely nearby, and parents can post up in a cabana with a drink in hand while the resort’s poolside servers keep everyone fed. There’s also a hot tub and hammocks scattered around if you need an actual adult break.

Use code KODIA10 for 10% off cabana rentals if you want to make that pool day extra relaxing.

Between the pool deck and the beach a few steps away, you genuinely don’t have to leave the property to fill an entire day.

Rainy Day (or Just Need a Break) Plan

Myrtle Beach weather doesn’t always cooperate, but Kingston Resorts has that covered too. The 78Fitness facility on property has its own indoor pool so swim time doesn’t have to stop just because the sky opens up. It’s also a great option if you want a quieter alternative to the main pool deck.

The Arcade Everyone Will Want to Visit

The Embassy Suites has an arcade on the second floor, and it turned into one of our favorite stops of the whole trip. It’s an easy way to burn an hour before dinner or after a long beach day, and it’s a lifesaver on the rare afternoon when nobody wants to put sunscreen back on.

Build a Sandcastle Like a Pro

If your family is staying during a weekend with a Create-a-Castle experience on the calendar, don’t skip it. It’s a hands-on, one-hour sandcastle-building session right on the beach with an instructor who brings all the tools, so even first-timers walk away with something Instagram-worthy. Keep an eye on Kingston Resorts’ experience calendar, since offerings like this rotate throughout the season.

Sunset Picnics and S’mores by the Fire

Some of our favorite family memories from the weekend happened after the sun started going down. A beachside picnic with the sunset as a backdrop is hard to beat, and s’mores by the fire at Black Drum afterward is the kind of simple thing that makes a trip feel special for kids of every age.

A Few Minutes for the Grown-Ups

While the kids are occupied at the pool or the arcade, Spa33 is right there at The Landing for parents who want to sneak away for a facial or massage. It’s also worth knowing Spa33 can accommodate family spa days for older kids and teens, so it doesn’t have to be an entirely separate outing.

Sweet Stops and Shopping

Before you check out, swing by the Crown Shop & Shores Marketplace for their well-known candy wall, an easy win with kids on your way out the door. If your family wants a shopping afternoon, Tanger Outlets is close by and offers a shuttle from the resort, so you can fit in a little retail therapy without needing a rental car.

The Family-Friendly Verdict

Between the waterslides, the indoor pool backup plan, the arcade, and the sandcastle lessons, Kingston Resorts is built for families who want a beach trip that doesn’t rely on the weather cooperating or the kids entertaining themselves. Add in a spa day for the parents and a candy wall on the way out, and it’s an easy recommendation for your next Myrtle Beach trip.

The Verdict: Family Trip or Couples Getaway, Kingston Resorts Delivers

Between the waterslides, the indoor pool backup plan, the arcade, and the sandcastle lessons, Kingston Resorts is built for families who want a beach trip that doesn’t rely on the weather cooperating or the kids entertaining themselves. And if it’s just the two of you, the sunset picnics, cabana days, and Spa33 make it just as easy to plan a relaxing couples getaway. Either way, it’s an easy recommendation for your next Myrtle Beach trip.
