Harbour Lights

The Resort & Its Setting

Harbour Lights is part of the Bluegreen Vacations portfolio, located on Harbour Lights Drive in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The resort sits along the Intracoastal Waterway rather than directly on the ocean, giving owners a quieter waterway view within easy reach of the Grand Strand's beaches and attractions. As a Bluegreen property, it operates on the points-based Bluegreen Vacation Club system, which is also what resale buyers join when they purchase a week or points package here.

Myrtle Beach & Horry County: What's Around

Myrtle Beach is one of the best-known coastal destinations on the US East Coast, known for its wide stretch of beach, golf courses, boardwalk, and family-oriented entertainment. Horry County, where the resort is located, is the wider region that takes in Myrtle Beach itself along with neighbouring towns along the Grand Strand. Owners and renters typically use a week here as a base for beach time, golf, outlet shopping, and the area's many dining and entertainment venues, with the Intracoastal Waterway location offering a different pace from the busier oceanfront strip.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own at Harbour Lights and decide it's time to sell, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a private, owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week yourself, set your own asking price, and interested buyers contact you directly through the platform. There's a one-time listing fee to get your week in front of buyers, and no commission is taken from your sale — what you agree with a buyer is what you keep.

Before listing, it helps to know how a Bluegreen transfer actually works. According to Bluegreen Vacations, a resale transfer carries a fee of about $500, the brand holds a right of first refusal on resales (meaning Bluegreen can step in and match an agreed sale before it completes), and the process typically takes 30 to 90 days from agreement to finalised transfer. These details are worth stating plainly in your listing so buyers know what to expect and aren't caught out partway through.

It's also important for both sides to understand what a resale buyer does and doesn't receive. Resale owners at Bluegreen resorts can use Bonus Time only at their home resort, and they do not get Premier status, which is reserved for buyers who purchase directly from the developer. If you're buying resale, factor this into your decision; if you're selling, mentioning it upfront in your listing builds trust and avoids disputes later. Harbour Lights also participates in the RCI exchange network, which is relevant to anyone planning to trade their week for stays elsewhere rather than using it at the home resort every year.

For renters, the main things people look for are location on the Intracoastal Waterway, unit size and sleeping capacity, and the week or season being offered — clear, honest details in your listing go a long way toward getting a response.

Practical Notes for Buyers and Sellers

Anyone buying resale should ask the current owner for the latest annual maintenance fee figure directly, since this can change year to year and isn't something to guess at. Likewise, confirm points value or week type, and check which exchange network the week is affiliated with if that matters to your travel plans. Given the 30–90 day transfer window typical of Bluegreen resales, buyers and sellers should both build that timeframe into any moving dates or planned trips tied to the transfer.

Getting Started

Whether you're listing a Harbour Lights week for sale, offering it for rent, or researching before you buy resale, having the Bluegreen transfer fee, right of first refusal, and Bonus Time/Premier status details in hand before you negotiate makes for a smoother, more transparent transaction on both sides.
