I took my 12 year old on a late vacation to North Myrtle. We spent most of our days swimming at the beach. I decided to add a day last minute to be able to take him to the boardwalk and Family Kingdom. I wanted somewhere clean, and preferably within walking distance to both spots. The Darlington Inn popped up within my searches, and seemed to be what I was looking for.
After staying there, Iām so glad I found it! The owner was so kind and accommodating. I stopped in before check-in, just to ask if we could park there while we walked to the boardwalk. Then Iād come back at 4 to check-in. Since they had available rooms, and ours was already cleaned, she offered for us to check-in early. They are pet-friendly, and we met their dog as well as another visitorās pup while getting our stuff to our room.
Our room was pretty, and had a calm, beach vibe to it. The room was so much cleaner than the resort we stayed at in NMB!
It had everything I could want when staying at the beach. The balcony faces the ocean, and the pool. Once situated in our room, we crossed the street to the promenade access. We were able to walk the few blocks to the Family Kingdom Saturday night. We got a good nightās sleep that night, and a nice shower before heading home yesterday morning. I wish we could have stayed longer, and been able to take a swim in the pool. Next time we go to the beach I would definitely stay here, and recommend it to anyone else.
