resort showcase Sea Trail Resort sunset beach, north carolina Located between Wilmington, North Carolina, and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, the 2,000-acre Sea Trail Resort is an ideal retreat for business conventions and meetings. Planners find more than 60,000 square feet of meeting and function space here—from boardrooms to a 10,000-squarefoot ballroom in the Sea Trail Convention Center. The 5,000square-foot pool deck can host an outdoor reception for 300 guests. A dedicated staff handles details ranging from securing audiovisual equipment to coordinating teambuilding activities like beach Olympics, kayaking, deep-sea fishing, horseback riding, Sea Thunder cruises, pottery making, and trips to the Silver Coast Winery. Attendees stay in the resort’s 600 luxury accommodations, which include guest rooms, suites, and one- to four-bedroom villas—all with golf course views. Sea Trail offers three different courses of distinction designed by Dan Maples, Rees Jones, and Willard Byrd. Putting greens, a lighted driving range, and a PGAsanctioned Golf Learning Center are also on site. Two clubhouses are stocked with full-service golf shops, lounges, and restaurants. Great group rates make golf at Sea Trail a perfect outing. Recreation at Sea Trail doesn’t end on the greens, however. There are complimentary shuttles that take guests to serene Sunset Beach for strolling, swimming, or shelling. An outdoor pool and whirlpool are available at the activity center; for cooler days, Sea Trail also has a heated indoor pool and whirlpool. The activity center can also arrange for various watersports, bike rentals, and horseback riding. Spa services can be enjoyed in-room or at the center’s spa, while Pilates, yoga, tai chi, water aerobics, and shag dancing are taught at the fitness center. Wilmington’s antebellum charms and Myrtle Beach’s family amusements and nightlife are nearby attractions, and shopping at The Village at Sunset Beach is just one mile from the resort. Chef Robbie Nicolaisen brings more than 17 years of culinary experience to Sea Trail’s restaurant, Magnolia’s Fine Food & Spirits in the Jones/Byrd Clubhouse, boasting a completely renovated interior. Casual poolside dining is available at Brassie’s Pub daily and at the Oasis Pool Bar in the summer. Sea Trail is located 30 minutes from the Myrtle Beach International Airport.
