Why the Owner Chose Litchfield By The Sea
We have been vacationing at Litchfield by the Sea for many years, the whole family enjoyed the setting, security, and lovely resort community, so the decision was easy when choosing to purchase a rental condo at our favorite place to relax.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Quiet, peaceful, family oriented, secure setting, while offering access to both the excitement of Myrtle Beach and the historical culture of low country South Carolina as epitomized by nearby Pawleys Island and Georgetown. The Litchfield by the Sea resort has been newly renovated in 2011, with updated landscaping, new walkways, and a totally new beach house, with a completely new clubhouse, new decks and access walkways to the 8-mile beach.

Wonderful, peaceful, inviting! WOW! Just as listed. Owner is very quick to send info and helpful with last minute arrangements. Highly recommend this property! Owner provided list of their favorite local restaurants and activities, we especially enjoyed breakfast at Webster's. Beautiful beach. Loved sitting on the screened deck overlooking the marsh! Condo was very clean and well maintained. Just like home! Thank you for making time with our son special.

Beautiful Beach Condo

Review Submitted: 04/26/11
We loved our stay in this condo in April 2011. The unit was very clean and the description / photos in the listing matched the actual property perfectly. The owner was very easy to work with and made special accommodations to meet me the day before our trip to exchange payment and paperwork since we booked last minute. My security refund was returned promptly after our checkout date along with a friendly note thanking us for renting. The location within LBTS is at the very front of the community closest to highway 17 and directly overlooking the salt marsh with beautiful views. There is a screened porch (with no holes in the screen) to enjoy the marsh view without getting bug bites. If you have small children I would recommend renting a golf cart while you are visiting since the walk to the beach can be a little much for them. For older children or adults the walk or bike ride from the condo to the beach is beautiful through the well manicured community. Another note for those with small children: the condo is all one level so you do not need to worry about bringing baby gates for steps. The only downside my wife and I can think of for this unit is the lack of an outdoor shower and hose to clean beach toys, floats, etc... and nowhere outside to spray the children off. You can always use the hose / showers at the beach access but it would definitely be nicer if the builders had added outdoor showers to these units. We would definitely stay in this condo for future visits and would not hesitate to recommend it to friends.

My family and I stayed in this condo this past week and it was everything we expected and more! It truly was stocked, very very clean, and the owners, Bill and Barb, were so accomodating. We enjoyed the view, the short distance to everything, and the comfort of knowing we were in a gated community. My children had plenty of space of their own, while my husband and I could still enjoy our privacy. We hope to visit Pawleys Island again! Thanks for everything!

We have stayed at this condo more than once because it is so clean and well stocked. We love that there are twin beds in two of the bedrooms so we can each have our own bed. It is one of the nicest condos we have rented and the owners are very accommodating and helpful; even helped us rent a golf cart. You can't beat all the amenities at this place and the resort is beautiful and has lots of things to do to keep you busy. We also love that there is a grocery store right across the street and Starbucks in the resort for all you coffee lovers.

The perfect relaxation get-away

Easy to find location. Parking right out front for ease of packing and unpacking the car. Looks like new with fully equipted kitchen. Light, neutral interior. Favorite part of the condo is the screened porch. You can enjoy a drink or meal on it while over looking the marsh area. Plenty of room for a family. Very well located to grocery (right across the street) and restaurants. If you are into history, plenty of historic plantations within 15-30 minutes. And for the beach lover, easy access as part of Litchfield. I will definitely come back!
