From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with genuine warmth and care. JoAnn and Davie went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, offering thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. Our room was spotless, tastefully decorated, and filled with cozy details — from crisp linens to a breathtaking view of the Marsh. Breakfast each morning was a delight, featuring fresh, homemade dishes. The atmosphere throughout the inn was peaceful and charming, offering the perfect mix of charm and modern convenience. Whether you're visiting for a weekend getaway or a longer retreat, Darien Waterfront Inn is the kind of place that makes you want to return again and again. Highly recommended!

Great Place!

The property is super clean, breakfast was delicious, and we enjoyed having coffee on the huge screen porch that looks out over the marsh. We took advantage of the owner’s offer to use their bikes, and that was a fun way to see the town. We highly recommend Darien Waterfront Inn.

What a lovely place to stay in coastal Georgia. The screened in porches offer a wonderful view of the marsh habitat so prevalent in the region. The sun was shining, birds flitting about and singing, delicious breakfasts, attractive and comfortable rooms…,the full package!

We loved it here.. The B&B is a lovely, bright & cheerful, home with each room beautifully decorated. There are two porches with comfortable furniture to relax and enjoy the scenery of the marsh. The location allows for walking around the town as well as to the Fort. Planning to return next trip north.

Wedding

In Darien for a wedding, decided to treat ourselves too. Beautiful location and room, easy access for aging mother-in-law on first floor, we had an upstairs room. Peaceful screened in porches up and down. Breakfast each day was very good. Already booked for later this year for upcoming trip south.

Our B&B was new construction, beautifully furnished and squeaky clean. What a treat! A large backyard overlooked hundreds of acres of marshland, including the river which brought in all the fresh seafood. Our two breakfasts were nothing less than delicious and we look forward to our return👍.

Darien GA’s BEST OF THE BEST

We found the Inn on hotels.com and it was the best we have ever stayed in, including hotels. JoAnn and Dave went above and beyond our expectations to make our time there top-notch! The Inn is clean, welcoming, and the views — breathtaking. A gourmet breakfast was served each morning, your room felt homey, bathrooms were stocked and if you stay more than two nights, fresh towels, wash rags, and hand towels are provided. The outside is welcoming and parking accommodating. Sitting is available on the front porch (rocking chairs). The porches on the back side of the Inn — assessable from your room both levels, which overlook a beautiful marsh is inviting and furnished with chairs, couches, and tables. There is also swings on the lower level outside near the marsh. We enjoyed our evening meal out there one evening — shade is provided from trees. Noise level is very minimal, everyone was very respectful of that while we were there. Brochures were located on the main floor and available for local area. Tips were welcoming on things to while there ((take advantage of these — super helpful)). Individual rooms were accessible with a key code which is provided at check-in, along with complimentary Wi-Fi code. Coffee, tea, orange juice provided with breakfast. Did we mention the host were exceptionally friendly, polite, servant-oriented! Blessings on anyone’s trip to Darien and find their stop to rest, relax, unwind, refresh and enjoy a quaint stay — choose the Darien Waterfront Inn.
