When life feels too busy, sometimes the best vacation is the one where you simply slow down and take a break. Pawleys Island, South Carolina, is known as one of the oldest seaside resort towns on the East Coast and also one of the most relaxed. With quiet beaches, a touch of Southern charm, and endless opportunities to do “a whole lot of nothing,” Pawleys is the perfect destination for travelers craving simplicity.
Here’s a laid-back itinerary for enjoying Pawleys Island at your own pace:
Morning: Ocean Views & Easy Starts
Wake up at The Litchfield Inn, a classic beachfront escape. Start your day with coffee in hand while sitting on your private balcony, letting the sound of waves set the tone for a calm and carefree day. There’s no rush, so just soak in the salty breeze and the view that stretches as far as the eye can see.
Late Morning: Beachfront Bliss
With direct access to the sand, there’s no need to pack up the car. Just wander down from the inn and claim your spot on the wide, quiet beach. Read a book, nap under an umbrella, or stroll along the shoreline. Pawleys Island’s beaches are famously uncrowded, so you’ll feel like you’ve got your own little piece of paradise.
Afternoon: Poolside Lounging & Easy Bites
When you’re ready for a change of scenery, slip into a lounge chair by the pool at The Litchfield Inn. Order a refreshing drink and relax without a schedule. For lunch, head to Tides Beach Bar right on-site. With its laid-back vibe, tasty bites, and panoramic ocean views, it’s the perfect place to linger over a casual meal.
Evening: Explore Beyond the Inn
When the sun starts to set, take a short drive off-property to experience a little more of Pawleys Island. Stroll through the Pawleys Island Hammock Shops for local crafts and gifts, or enjoy fresh seafood at one of the area’s cozy restaurants. For an especially slow-paced evening, bring a blanket back to the beach and watch the stars come out over the Atlantic.
Your Laid-Back Getaway Awaits
If your dream vacation involves sandy toes, salty breezes, and a whole lot of relaxation, Pawleys Island is calling, and The Litchfield Inn is the perfect place to stay. With oceanfront balconies, casual dining, beachfront access, and a poolside retreat, you’ll have everything you need to take it easy.
