Myrtle Beach Hotel’s Seasonal Shutdown Forces Long-Term Residents and Their Pets to Relocate

The South Seas Hotel in Myrtle Beach is closing for the winter off-season, prompting concerns for long-term residents who must vacate by September 29. Management cites renovations as the reason for the closure, although there are also rumors about a potential sale.
