The property is old with minimum upkeep. Front door deadbolt and knob are worn to the point where the door moved 3/8 inch when locks are engaged. Several old locks are still installed in door. Entire door and frame needs to be replaced. Bathtub is too high to enter/exit comfortably and more water comes out of faucet than showerhead. Second bathroom shower is really small.

Fantastic & Wonderful !

Sea Gables Cottage - truly delightful! With great pleasure, we hereby declare Darlington Cottages as our 1st choice for our eventual return to Myrtle Beach! My wife, our two kids and I just finished a 6-night stay at Darlington's Sea Gables Cottage from 7/27 - 8/2. Darlington Motel and Cottages consists of a small 4-story motel plus several cottages on the adjacent lot across the street. The Darlington property is owned/operated by a family who takes pleasure in making visitors feel welcome and comfortable. The owners were courteous, friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Sea Gables Cottage is a stand alone cottage and served as our home away from home. The cottage has aged a few decades yet it's both spacious and cozy with superior climate controls (yes - central air) and two (2) full bathrooms. My family of 4 had more than enough room to co-exist as a group and individual down time. Sea Gables has a wrap-around front porch and a nice yard w/ tree swing, outdoor games and even an outdoor shower attached to our cottage. There is one (1) very well maintained outdoor swimming pool optimally located along Ocean Blvd. We cannot speak for the other cottages on-site or motel rooms but Sea Gables Cottage is a true gem. My family and I have zero complaints and look forward to a future stay with Darlington. Major compliments to the accommodations and staff!

We were suppose to stay 4 nights,but we left a day early.We stayed in the Flip Flop cottage.Cottage was cute,but old.It had a very strong mold and mildew smell.They had plug ins but they weren’t working.Our clothes smelled of mold and mildew.They had window units for A.C,no door on the bedroom.Celing fans were dusty.Top of refrigerator dusty.Closet in bedroom had spider webs.Bed was very uncomfortable,floor had a lot of dips in areas.Shower was hot.I think that was the only thing that was good. Owner was nice,but one of workers live there,so I’m sure he be telling what ever he sees

Family beach trip perfection

Our family of 4 stayed here for our first Myrtle Beach experience. Being able to walk to the beach and come back so easily was amazing. The place was perfect for our family with a teen & tween. The cottage was absolutely charming and the host was great working out our very late arrival time. A couple things that I was a little surprised by: there are 2 air conditioning units and they kept the place plenty cool, but we needed to keep the bedroom doors open at night to “share the air”. The bathroom door kept getting stuck on the floor which made it hard to open past 30°. It’s an old (but adorable!) building, so I expect this kind of thing, but just something that made my husband a little nutty. Nothing that would keep me from staying again! It was perfect to eat a few meals in and keep cold beverages on the ready!

This property is an incredible value for the money. No added fees for parking and you can be at the boardwalk in 3 minutes. Property is older but very clean and worked great for us.

Disliked: Room comfort

No where to sit

There was not one comfortable chairs/sofa to sit on. The one chair was so unstable if you move one bit it would start to tip. The couch had no stuffing we had to sit on pillows we put on the couch and it still was very uncomfortable. When you step out of the tub the floor is soft with a large dip that is a health hazard for turning an ankle. When we came home after running all day we wanted to sit down and enjoy our TV shows and it was near impossible due to being so uncomfortable on the couch and unsafe on the chair
