I was contacted even before I checked in to greet me and tell me I was appreciated. The front desk workers were very friendly. The room lighting was too dim and we would've appreciated a microwave in the room. One of the tv remotes only turned on and off, couldn't change the Channel or work volume. The other one worked well. The lady morning we went to their restaurant for breakfast but no one was at the counter to greet us for several minutes so we left. Awesome location and balcony at the beach.

Great stay! Included sit down breakfast was awesome! Stayed here for the Myrtle Beach Marathon weekend. Friendly staff! Great job on the refurbishment! Only negative was we asked for an extra blanket at front desk and housekeeping but never received. Not a big deal just honest review.

We went for the MB Marathon and had a wonderful experience. We had some of the nicest employees assist us with everything from check in to check out. They were all so friendly and helpful even when we didn’t ask such as having full hands and pressing the elevator button before we got there. I can’t recommend this place enough and just a tip if you have waitstaff wait on you always tip! We got there the first day and got to order off the menu in the little restaurant with coupons. After the race we went back to the restaurant to redeem our coupons and found out overnight they changed to complimentary buffet since people weren’t tipping the waitstaff. We got our breakfast on Sat. and Sun. in the restaurant and we left good tips too. Just FYI the food and the service in the restaurant were top notch! The complimentary buffet was so so, so I’m hoping they go back to the restaurant and automatically add an 18% gratuity to the bill it will be well worth it. I promise!!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at The Shelby in Myrtle Beach and an amazing dining experience at The Pebbles restaurant, which is connected to the hotel. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The hospitality was truly outstanding. Dave the doorman greeted us with warmth every day and made us feel right at home. Brad and Sharon, the hotel hosts who checked us in and out, were professional, friendly, and welcoming. It was such a pleasure learning that Brad is also from our hometown in Maryland—it made the experience even more personal. Jay, the head housekeeper, along with Varnette in housekeeping, ensured everything was clean, comfortable, and well cared for throughout our stay. Jose in maintenance was also wonderful and attentive. Every staff member went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The Pebbles restaurant was just as impressive. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was excellent—especially from Amanda and Anna. The head chef, David, truly knows his craft, and every meal was prepared with care and flavor. Because of the exceptional hospitality, delicious food, and welcoming atmosphere, my husband and I had an awesome time and are already excited about returning. We highly recommend The Shelby and The Pebbles restaurant to anyone visiting Myrtle Beach.

We had a great stay at voco The Shelby in Myrtle Beach! The property was very well kept, clean, and had a welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. Brittany at the front desk was especially helpful — she made check-in smooth and welcoming, and even took the time to tell us about fun things to do in the area. After Brittany checked us in last night, we headed straight to the restaurant on the property. We thoroughly enjoyed both the food and the vibe. It had a relaxed but upbeat atmosphere, and everything we ordered was delicious. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with absolutely amazing sunset views. It was the perfect place to unwind after a day out. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Oceanfront Stay I had a fantastic stay at The Shelby – Myrtle Beach. The hotel feels fresh, modern, and thoughtfully designed, with spotless rooms and comfortable beds. The oceanfront location is a huge win—easy beach access and beautiful views that never get old. The staff was genuinely friendly and helpful from check-in to check-out, which made the experience even better. Amenities like the pool area and on-site dining added convenience without feeling crowded or chaotic. Overall, The Shelby strikes a great balance between relaxed beach vibes and polished comfort.

I recently stayed for three nights to celebrate my anniversary with my wife, and our experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel truly celebrated. We were surprised to find a bottle of champagne and chocolates waiting in our room at check-in, along with a beautifully handwritten anniversary letter—such a thoughtful and personal touch that meant a lot to us. To make our stay even more special, we were upgraded to a suite, which was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for an anniversary getaway. Every detail felt intentional, and the hospitality throughout our stay was consistently outstanding. A huge thank you to Kristina, the Front Desk Manager, as well as Telly, Sharon, and the entire Shelby team. Each of them went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine care truly made the difference. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for exceptional service and an unforgettable stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better anniversary experience and can’t wait to return! Thank you guys! My wife loved it, we were so excited when we walked into the room and saw the champagne and the chocolates! Thank you Kristina
