Let&#8217;s explain.<\/p>\n<p>Oceanfront Myrtle Beach condos are parallel to the ocean, meaning you are facing the ocean while standing on your balcony. Simple as that. The building is not tilted, nor do you have a side unit that has a VIEW of the ocean.\u00a0 When you look out your balcony door, the ocean is directly in front of you looking straight ahead.\u00a0 You can look up one side and see the beach, and you can look up another side and see the rest of the beach.\u00a0This added luxury is why oceanfront condos are usually more expensive &#8211; the view is spectacular.\u00a0 The photo below is an example of an oceanfront condo rental:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_170\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-170\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-170   \" title=\"Oceanfront Condo Rental\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/www.condolux.net\/vacations-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Balcony-view-1.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.condolux.net\/vacations-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Balcony-view-1.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.condolux.net\/vacations-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Balcony-view-1-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-170\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oceanfront Condo &#8211; Notice How the Beach is Parallel to the Balcony?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.condolux.net\">Myrtle Beach condo rentals<\/a> that have an ocean view<\/strong>, on the other hand, might still have a very nice VIEW of the ocean, but your balcony might be on the side of the building, rather than in the front (or back, for that matter). These condos generally are less costly, simply because you are not paying for the view.\u00a0 There is no difference in actual quality of the unit itself. You can still expect your tiled floors, jacuzzi tubs, and granite countertops &#8211; just not the view.\u00a0 Keep in mind, there are other types of an ocean view condos as well. If there is a home or condo on the second row, there still might be a good view of the ocean &#8211; but you might need to walk an extra 100 feet or over the road to get to the beach.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_171\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-171\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-171  \" title=\"Myrtle Beach Condo Rentals\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/www.condolux.net\/vacations-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Balcony-view-2.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.condolux.net\/vacations-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Balcony-view-2.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.condolux.net\/vacations-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Balcony-view-2-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-171\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ocean View: You can still see the ocean, but it&#8217;s not directly in front of you.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We have a wide assortment of both oceanfront and ocean view Myrtle Beach condo rentals.
