About the host

Hosted by Jay Welborn

My wife and I met at Myrtle Beach AFB back in the late 80's while I was stationed there as a young Airman. After we married, we spent the next 20+ years traveling all over the world as a member of the Air Force to include Japan, Hawaii, and Germany. When we came to our final station at Shaw AFB in Sumter SC before retirement, we immediately came to the beach to catch up on old memories. By this time we had 5 children and we wanted a place where we could bring the kids to the enjoy the beach. After searching many condos, we fell in love with the Caravelle Resort the moment we came upon the grounds. This was the one. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we love visiting here ourselves.

Why they chose this property

The Caravelle offers so much for family members of all ages. It's close to the thick of things that Myrtle Beach has to offer without being to close to the downtown traffic and "rowdy" crowds. The Caravelle is the best family vacation place and thus was an easy choice when we decided to buy.

What makes this property unique

The views from the balcony and our favorite spot to sleep (the Murphy Bed) in the living room area so we can listen to the ocean all night long is absolutely our favorite part of our condo. Of course the kids LOVE the swimming pool areas, lazy river and swimming/walking the beach looking for shells.
