Watercrest Myrtle Beach
Watercrest Myrtle Beach offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Assisted living includes help with bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident keeps their own living space, while independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
Several care levels are available here. A resident whose needs grow may be able to change care levels without moving to another community. Watercrest Myrtle Beach has 122 beds, with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom housing; a studio offers one private space, while a two-bedroom option can work for a couple moving together or for someone who wants a companion.
Starting monthly prices are $4,950 for independent living and $6,000 for memory care. The memory care rate reflects the secured setting and smaller staff ratios required for this level of supervision. Residents have access to an outdoor pool, art studio, theater, music room, fitness center, gardening stations, walking paths, salon, spa, and restaurant-style dining, along with transportation services and rehabilitation services.
Pets are allowed, so residents can bring a pet when they move. Charles Holtzclaw serves as the administrator, and American House South Carolina operates the community. Watercrest Myrtle Beach may be a good fit for someone who could benefit from changing care levels within the same community as needs develop.
