Pawleys Pier Village offers unique option for visitors to Pawleys Island
Are you and your family searching for an exciting, secluded beachfront experience on Pawleys Island, with condominiums, private balconies, a private pool, and pier access? Well, Pawleys Pier Village, which offers a comfortable stay for visitors, is your answer.
This unique retreat, located in the center of the island on the oceanfront near Town Hall, features individually owned condominiums with two or three bedrooms, and each unit comes fully furnished with kitchen and laundry facilities. They are available for rent through the management company, Lachicotte Annual Rentals & Vacation Rentals.
Pawleys Island’s scenic and pristine beach and its beautiful marshland creek offers visitors plenty to enjoy. Options for renting on Pawleys Island include house rentals through several accommodations companies and the two bed and breakfasts on the island, the Seaview Inn and the Pelican Inn.
John Felton, a member of Pawleys Pier Village board of directors and owner of G-3 Engineering, said he started renting a condominium when the village first opened in 1972. He became a unit owner in 2017 and has served on the board for five years.

“Pawleys Island is known for its laid-back, non-commercialized vibe, and Pawleys Pier Village reflects that with a peaceful, family-friendly environment,” Felton said. “Whether you are there for the fishing or just to enjoy the pleasures of the beach and the amazing sunrise and sunsets, Pawleys Pier Village is a unique retreat for all who stay here.”
He said the condominiums are perfect for vacation rentals and catering to family and friends.
“Since each unit is individually owned, they offer unique decor and personal touches, ensuring that no two are exactly alike,” Felton said.
Guests enjoy exclusive access to the large pool and cabana area, nestled in the Pawleys Pier Village private courtyard.
“The pool provides guests with a spot to relax and soak up the sun,” Felton said. “It’s complimented by a cabana, offering shade and a comfortable space to unwind.”
Guests also enjoy exclusive access to the Pawleys Island Pier, one of the most notable features of the village — and the island itself.
“The pier is available only to residents and guests, making it a great spot for fishing, sightseeing, or relaxing over the water,” he said.
This private pier serves as a perfect vantage point to witness the breathtaking sunrise over the vast Atlantic Ocean, or to prepare for a day of leisurely fishing. The pier is a delightful spot for casting your fishing line or simply enjoying the breathtaking surroundings.

For those fortunate catches, a convenient fish-cleaning station is available right on the pier. Boating enthusiasts are catered t, as well, with complimentary boat storage offered throughout accommodations bookings.
Every condo comes equipped with Wi-Fi and provided linens, ensuring your comfort from the moment you arrive. The beds are thoughtfully made before your arrival, ready to embrace you in relaxation.
Step out onto your own private balcony attached to each unit, offering picturesque views that are perfect for capturing those special moments. These balconies, spaciously designed, create a serene haven where you can unwind, bask in relaxation, and relish the refreshing ocean breeze.
Felton said families return to Pawleys Pier Village year after year for its welcoming community feel and open spaces where children can play freely.

“As a unique gated community on Pawleys Island, it offers an experience unlike any other,” he said. “With much of Pawleys Island consisting of single-family homes, the beaches here remain less crowded compared to neighboring communities, providing a more peaceful and relaxing coastal retreat.”
