Spring Break RoadTrip Riding in the 2017 Mazda CX-9 Monday 10 April, 2017
Nina + I in Myrtle Beach for our Girlfriends Getaway Roadtrip!
Spring Break is the perfect time for a roadtrip. I went to Myrtle Beach again and I roadtripped with my good friend Nina!
She has never been to Myrtle Beach but it was also her spring break (she is a teacher), so we decided to make a trip out of Atlanta and ride up to Myrtle Beach, SC in the new 2017 Mazda CX-9.
We took a roadtrip to Beach Cove Resort in the Mazda CX-9
It was a great SUV to put our luggage and travel items to put in the trunk

We drove up to Beach Cove Resort and had an amazing few days for our Spring Break. Great views of the beach outside of our balcony. I will definitely be reviewing the resort in the next upcoming posts. We also drove up and down North Myrtle Beach to the downtown area for various foodie spots too. I definitely will also have a blog post on that as well coming soon.
I also did the Mazda Drive for Good charitable program as a way to give back to the community. Since its launch in 2013, the Mazda Drive for Good program has donated more than $12.9 million, has pledged more than 192,000 charitable service hours and continue to provide monetary and community service throughout the year. I donated $25 to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta as my charitable donation via Mazda. #MazdaDriveForGood
The Mazda CX-9 was wonderful for Nina and I traveling through Myrtle Beach and returning home. Great for a getaway to ride in style in the 2017 Mazda CX-9 and glad I got the opportunity to take this on the road!

I love that Mazda! What a great car to take on a road trip! It is so sporty but still sleek. It looks like there is a lot of cargo space too! I will have to keep this in mind when I try test driving some cars this summer.
That does sound like a reliable SUV for traveling. It’s awesome that you got to take it on a road trip with a friend! It looks like you had awesome weather too.
The Mazda CX-9 is practical, but it’s not all Costco and Home Depot and road trips to Disney. The CX-9 looks like something Karl Lagerfeld would use to run errands on whatever his version of a nice little Saturday might be.
My neighbor has this exact suv and she loves it. I used to have an sub and down graded to a car, but honestly I miss it. Looks like y’all had a great time.
It sounds like you had an amazing road trip to Myrtle Beach. The the 2017 Mazda CX-9 sounds like a great vehicle for a road trip. Hopefully I can enjoy a road trip during spring break one of these days. Thanks for sharing your experience.
One of the most upbeat crossovers, Mazda CX-9 is now available in the entry level segment of luxury cars. Until 2012, this crossover was not really a mainstream player, but its latest facelift has attracted large number of SUV enthusiasts in the Philippines auto market.
Not only do I love the colour I LOVE the look of this car. Mazda’s are always so nice looking. I really like this the look of this. Looks like a great ride!
I have a Mazda and it has gotten me a lot of miles so the CX-9 is probably even better. It looks like a great trip to take for spring break in Myrtle Beach.
I love a good road trip and this looks like it was a lot of fun. The car looks great as well, and spacious for the kinds of things you would need to be able to carry on a road trip.
We did road trip over Spring Break. We went to the mountains. I would have loved to have had the Mazda CX 9 for travel. It looks like it would have been roomy enough for my family.
I haven’t ever driven a Mazda before. Next SUV that I buy, I will have to test drive the Mazda before making my final decision. I love the color of the one that you test drove.
What a handsome looking car! I love the fire engine red color of it, but most important is the safety features and all those hi-tech interior features too.
The Mazda Drive for Good charitable program is a great way to give back. I would love to take this car for a test drive. It would have a ton of room for road trips.
Now this is what I call a fun spring break. Totally on my level. I love the looks of the CX-9. I would really like something with this kind of space in it. I currently drive a small car and it’s just not enough when we go camping.
I love a good girls trip, looks like you gals had plenty of room for your luggage. Myrtle Beach is one of my favorite places. I need to visit again soon.
You and your friend look great and are so ready for great adventures. I love your dress, it matches with the color of the car! 🙂 This Mazda is awesome. Looks compact but actually roomy inside and packed with cool features.
That looks like a beautiful car to take a spring break road trip in as a girls trip. Definitely wouldn’t fit my family, but would be fun to disappear in with some friends for awhile.
I have a Mazda and I am very satisfied with it. The gas mileage is tops, low maintenance and total interior comfort. The techy stuff is a bonus! Glad that you loved driving this Mazda!
Indeed to road trips .. especially to the beach! (Lucky) This is crazy because our neighbors just bought a Mazada CX 9 .. I’m not even kidding. Theirs is black and we just admiring it the other day. Sporty .. yet not too big. A really great looking ride!
wow what a great looking car! I love the red color as it’s nice and bright. Looks like you guys had a blast and created some wonderful memories! I hope to get to Myrtle ,Beach one of these days as I have never been.
The United States is truly an amazing country, geographically and beyond. As a Canadian, I always look forwarding to going to the USA. It’s a great country with beautiful scenery and endless things to do
[…] enjoyed my experience here in Myrtle Beach again. It was Nina Spring Break, and I had the 2017 Mazda CX-9 f0r a week test drive and we came together and decided we were going to roadtrip up here to Beach […]
My dad has this car (in silver) and loves it. He talks very highly about it 🙂
That is one sweet ride! I love all the space in there. I need that with all the kids, my husband, and the dog.
That looks like a great car. I just love your dress!
The CX-9 looks like a wonderful vehicle. It’s quite impressive that they managed to keep the size small but the interior space big.
What a fun way to spend Spring Break. That Mazda is super good looking, I am not usually a fan of red cars but this one? I would totally drive it!
OHH I Love the Three-zone automatic climate control with pollen filter!!! I want that in my car! I will have to check this car out!
I did not but I sure would have loved to take one in style in that car! You two look amazing by the way. Beautiful women by a gorgeous car is perfect!
Sounds like a fun trip! You had a great car and a fun destination too.

Wow it looks like you can fit a ton in the Mazda CX 9. It would be great for a road trip. I would love to go to Myrtle Beach again.
Sounds like an awesome car. I’ve never driven a Mazda, but I’ve been hearing a lot of great things about the Mazda CX 9.
I’m wanting my next vehicle to be an SUV, especially for my growing family. Something like this would make the perfect road trip vehicle, too!
I love Mazda! My next “fun” car will be the Miata but I love the look of all their cars. It looks like you guys had a great time
That SUV is adorable!! Go Mazda!! And great post!!

I love the Mazda brand. This car is great. My son’s father has one and I was able to see how roomy it was.

Spring Break trips are always fun. The Mazda is a nice looking ride.
My husband and I are saving for a car. It’s so hard to pick when they’re are such amazing cars out there like this one!
Be still my heart. That’s one gorgeous vehicle.
You are one lucky woman! I would LOVE to have that for a day!
I haven’t ever driven a Mazda before. Next SUV that I buy, I will have to test drive the Mazda before making my final decision. I love the color of the one that you test drove.
What an awesome Mazda! My parents have a Mazda, but not a CX9. It looks really nice! I need to get to Myrtle Beach too!
Mazdas are great cars. We had one forever and it drove really well. We hated having to get rid of it.
You look great with that car! We have an (older)Mazda and have always loved the amount of cargo space that the small car has. It’s amazing!

Gotta love a good old road trip to relief the stress from whatever everyone takes off and then enjoy a spring break. Loving the Mazda!
This car looks like it’s full of so many useful features. We are in the market for a new car and will check this one out.
This is such a beautiful car! I have had a Mazda before and really enjoyed how they drive.
I love the sporty look to that car. So nice!
I love road trips! Looks like such a fun spring break. I am so craving the beach lately. I don’t think I’ve ever driven a Mazda. Super cute.
The Mazda CX-9 and your outfits looks spectacular! Loving the bright red and the roomy interior of this great looking car!
