A beach vacation does not have to mean crowded beaches, busy streets, and a packed itinerary. At Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort, vacation moves at a different pace. Located along South Carolina’s Hammock Coast in Pawleys Island, the resort combines beautiful natural surroundings, spacious accommodations, family-friendly amenities, easy beach access, and plenty of ways to enjoy the outdoors.
For families, couples, golfers, and anyone looking for a more laid-back coastal escape, here is why Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort makes a great home base.
One of the things that makes Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort unique is the variety of accommodations throughout the property.
Rather than one traditional hotel building, the resort includes different buildings and neighborhoods, each offering its own setting and vacation experience. Guests can choose from standard rooms and one-bedroom suites to spacious multi-bedroom villas and condos.
Some accommodations place you closer to the Summerhouse Pool & Play Plaza, while others are tucked into scenic areas near lakes, marshes, or the beach. Depending on the accommodation, guests can also find full kitchens, screened porches, balconies, multiple bedrooms, and plenty of room for families and groups to spread out.
There is a lot more to pool time here than taking a quick swim. The Pool & Play Plaza brings together some of the resort’s most family-friendly amenities, including an outdoor pool, lazy river, kiddie pool, the Silly Submarine water feature, hot tubs, and plenty of room to spend a full afternoon outside.
Families can bounce between the pool and lazy river while younger guests splash around the kiddie areas. If your ideal vacation afternoon involves finding a comfortable spot and staying there for a while, cabanas are also available at the Summerhouse Pool Deck during the summer season.
There are indoor water amenities available too, giving guests another option when they want a break from the sun. Depending on where you stay, select neighborhoods throughout the resort also offer amenities such as additional pools, hot tubs, kiddie pools, lazy rivers, and more. This gives guests even more ways to enjoy the water close to their accommodations.
Of course, you cannot come to Pawleys Island without spending plenty of time by the ocean. Guests staying in eligible Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort accommodations can enjoy private beach access within the gated Litchfield by the Sea community, along with a fishing pier. Beach chair and umbrella rentals can also be arranged, so you can arrive at the sand ready to settle in for the day.
Take a long walk along the shoreline. Bring a book. Search for shells. Walk out onto the fishing pier. Stay until everyone decides they are finally ready for lunch.
Some places are simply better explored by bike. Bicycle rentals are available right at the resort, giving guests a fun way to explore the property and take in more of the surrounding scenery.
Instead of hopping in the car every time you want to go somewhere, take a leisurely ride through the resort and enjoy the moss-draped trees, ponds, coastal vegetation, and quiet atmosphere along the way.
It is one of those simple activities that perfectly fits a Hammock Coast vacation. There is no finish line and nowhere you need to be. Just get outside and see where the ride takes you.
Beach and pool days might take up most of your vacation, but there are plenty of other ways to stay active at Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort. Guests can enjoy recreational amenities including tennis courts, a basketball court, racquetball, a playground, fitness facilities, and the fishing pier.
The resort’s Health Club adds even more ways to stay active, making it easy to fit a workout or a little friendly competition into the day.
And with “Golf” right in the name, the resort also puts you in one of the Grand Strand’s most popular areas for hitting the links. Pawleys Island and the surrounding area are home to an impressive collection of golf courses, so it is easy to turn your coastal getaway into a golf trip too.
You do not have to travel far when you are ready for something good to eat.
Coastal Dish brings convenient dining right to the resort, making it an easy choice for starting the morning or enjoying dinner after a day outside.
For something even more relaxed, head to The Deck Tiki Bar for drinks and casual bites in an outdoor setting. Seasonal live music enhances the atmosphere on select evenings, giving you an easy way to extend your vacation day without leaving the property.
There is also an on-site Starbucks near the front desk for those mornings when coffee needs to happen before anything else.
One of the best parts of staying at Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort is everything surrounding you. This part of the South Carolina coast feels noticeably different from the busier stretches farther north. The Hammock Coast is filled with marshes, gardens, wildlife, waterways, quiet beaches, and plenty of places where the scenery itself becomes the attraction.
Brookgreen Gardens is only a couple miles from the resort, offering a beautiful mix of sculpture, gardens, history, and nature. Just a little farther away, Huntington Beach State Park is a favorite for beaches, wetlands, nature trails, and wildlife. And when you are ready for dinner with a view, head toward the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, where waterfront restaurants and Lowcountry flavors line the marsh.
With a wide variety of accommodations, extensive resort amenities, beach access, on-site dining, and some of the best attractions just minutes away, you can build your vacation around exactly what you came here to enjoy.
