Where to Eat Near Myrtle Beach Vacation Rentals

Myrtle Beach rentals are mostly family beach weeks, so this list leans toward seafood dinners, kids’ menus and an easy breakfast. This guide lists 7 restaurants that fit that pattern. Every detail comes from the restaurant’s own website, checked on October 14, 2026. Hours change by season, so confirm before you go. Still choosing where to stay? Start with the Myrtle Beach neighborhood guide, and see Myrtle Beach family vacation rentals for planning.

Quick answer

The list covers Myrtle Beach (1), North Myrtle Beach (2) and Murrells Inlet (4). BnB Search is a rental directory, not a restaurant critic, so the list is not ranked and shows no ratings.
