About this property

Pet Friendly Cottage On Sunset Beach. Spacious, Comfortable And Ideally Located!

Panacea is a mid-island, pet and family friendly cottage on the quiet end of Sunset Beach. A short three minute walk gets you to the beach, over the elevated boardwalk that allows views into the expansive dunes that serve as home to deer, rabbits and sea turtle nests. Throw down your beach towel and enjoy one of the widest beaches on the east coast at low tide with great puddles to lounge, splash or build sand castles. Turn to the right towards Bird Island to find the fabled Kindred Spirit mailbox and leave your own message and continue on to explore the rock jetty that lines the inland waterway. Or turn to the left and you're headed toward the pier, great for people watching and getting an old fashioned orange sherbet push-up treat.
Panacea has been updated with modern but not too fussy beach décor throughout, with open floor plan and spacious bedrooms creating a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Bedroom One has a king bed, two night stands, dresser, TV and bench. Bedroom Two has a queen bed flanked by nightstands, dresser and mirror, bench and wing chair. Bedroom Three has queen bed, dresser, and side chair. Bedroom Four is the twin bedroom with a chest of drawers also serving as a night stand, TV and full length mirror. The living area has a full sized couch with recliners on the ends, recliner love seat and a single reclining chair (sounds like a lot of relaxing going on!). End tables and coffee table provide a convenient place for your favorite snack or beverage. The dining table seats 6 but can be expanded with extra leaf stored in twin bedroom closet, extra seating with four stools at the bar. The kitchen has all the expected appliances--fridge, oven range, dishwasher, microwave. Mr Coffee Maker and Keurig, electric can opener, 4 slot toaster/bagel, toaster oven all available. The laundry area houses the washer, dryer, expandable drying rack, broom, dust pan (all you need since housekeeping is included!) with board games and puzzles on the shelf. The back deck sports love seat, chairs and a picnic table. The large front porch with plenty of seating (2 loveseats, 4 chairs, 2 coffee tables and two chair high bistro table set for morning coffee) is the perfect place to gather and enjoy those that matter most.
Under the house provides shaded parking but if you back your cars out a little sidewalk chalk can create a space for budding artists or a game of hop-scotch. The outside shower has a bench, hooks for towels and a hand-held shower head with great water pressure. A bin MAY have boogie boards, rafts, beach chairs and a variety of sand toys and a fat tired aluminum wagon with fishing pole holders will make it easy to cart whatever you want to the beach, just be sure to go down to the 40th street access (no steps). And after a day on the beach if you want to cook out, a 3 burner propane gas grill is at the ready for burgers, steak or whatever you caught fishing.

This Panacea is a definite cure for those needing some R&R!

Interior amenities include cable TV, free WIFI, three TVs, DVD player and CD player/stereo. Linens are included. We were ahead of the game as far as safety/sanitizing by having a UV filter added to our HVAC system several years ago.

Outside offers a 3 burner propane gas grill, sundeck, covered parking, outdoor shower, and covered porch. This home is pet friendly - so bring your best friends! Gates at the top of the steps ensure child and pet security.

Panasea.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Panasea. It was spotlessly clean and decorated so tastefully. Beds and linens were super comfortable. Just wished the porch was screened in - that would be our only suggestion. It was a wonderful week for our family making more memories at beautiful Sunset Beach. Thanks so much!!!

Family Vacation

We loved this house. The pictures do not reflect how beautiful this home truly is. It has everything you could possibly need to include an awesome cart for the beach. We had our 5 month old grandson with us and the high chair helped tremendously. Looking forward to returning next year.

Sweet summer vacation

We enjoyed our stay. The location was a short walk to the beach and we enjoyed the front porch. We had to buy more towels and wash cloths because we did not want to have to do laundry every day. The beds were a little hard for our liking but we had plenty of space for all of us and our fur babies. I feel like who ever does the cleaning does not do as well as they are supposed to because of areas that have not been swept. Over all this was a pleasant stay and the owners were quick to respond to any questions we had.

Peaceful and comfortable

The interior is nicely updated from photos, uplifting colors and quality features throughout each room. Very well cleaned. Kitchen had more than enough for our week of food prep. Laundry area was convenient and clean. We enjoyed the games available. Front porch ocean breeze was pleasant morning to night! The surrounding homes are nice and the location is private and peaceful. Parking underneath in the shade was a bonus. Walking distance to beach is reasonable and convenient to get to Bird Island. Thank you for sharing your Sunset Beach home.

The BEST beach house

We absolutely loved this property. It was a short walk to the beach, and the wagon was very convenient to haul your belongings to the beach in. The house was very clean upon arrival, and had everything we needed for our stay. The pictures don’t do it justice, this house is way more beautiful when you see it in person. I would love to stay here again, and I highly recommend for other families to stay here!

Exceptionally Clean and Relaxing!

We had a great stay at Panacea. The interior is all updated, so we were pleasantly surprised. The location on the island was close enough to walk to the market if items are needed. We also accessed the beach at 38th Street and walked 1.4 miles each way to the Kindred Spirit. We cooked/grilled most meals and everything we needed was provided. The street was very quiet and we were on the front porch every morning and evening. We would definitely stay here again.

It is a great location and a very nice house. The only issue is something was wrong with the cable and we would have to given up 1/2 a day to wait for the repaire man so we chose to go without tv.

Panacea is true to it's name - solace for the soul

Panacea is a wonderful house at beautiful Sunset Beach. The photos are good, but it is even better in person. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortably furnished. Everything needed to fix great seafood was provided in the well-equipped kitchen. The bed was very comfortable. One bathroom has a nice, deep soaking tub, the other a lovely tiled shower; both had large rainshower shower heads. The entire house is bright and airy. The washer and dryer are right off the kitchen and very convenient. The favorite places for me, my dog, and family also visiting Sunset Beach were the porches. The covered front porch has wonderful teak conversation group seating with loveseats, chairs, and a cocktail table. When the sun made it too hot, there were outdoor curtains that could be closed to cool it down in this area. It was a lovely place to enjoy tea and coffee in the mornings and cocktails in the evenings. The back porch has beautiful bentwood furniture with cushions, also with sofa / chairs and cocktail table, as well as tables that can double as ottomans and a nice table with umbrella. There is vegetation in the yard behind this porch that gives privacy and beauty. The outdoor areas are wonderful, and we really enjoyed them! The beach is a short pleasant walk away down, and it is stunning. We also enjoyed walking towards the marshes towards the end of 40th street where there are stunning views - especially at sunrise. Sunset Beach is a beautiful, family friendly beach, and Panacea is the perfect place to stay to enjoy it all! HIghly recommend Panacea!

Relaxing Respite

We found the house to be quite comfortable for 7 adults. The inside had been painted with laminate floors installed. It was very attractive. It was also very clean with fresh towels set out in each bedroom. The front porch is a great place to relax and enjoy dessert in the evening. We made meals regularly and found the kitchen to be accommodating for food preparation. If you’re into watching TV, the living area is a comfy sitting area. We found the walk to the beach to be pretty easy. I’d suggest using the 40th street access. It has no steps which is perfect if you’re using the wagon to take your stuff to the beach. We were very happy with our stay at Panacea!

About the host

Hosted by Leta Wiley/Deborah Long

Host profile image
Both of us grew up in the Carolinas and as Jim was already established in the new-at-the-time field of computers, I opened my optometric practice in Fort Mill, SC. We have lived in Indian Land, SC for 30 years among the trees and wildlife and in 2016 I finished serving eight years in the SC House of Representatives. Jim loved being at the beach golfing or fishing or just hanging out with family and friends. His spirit remains there today.

Why they chose this property

Jim and I met in 1980 and it wasn't long before we knew we were meant to be together. He took me to see a beach lot he had purchased several years earlier because he wanted to build a house on it. Ironically I had been to Sunset Beach once before with a friend who insisted I see this serene, secluded, relatively undiscovered beach with great sand dunes not usually found on the southern east coast and I had fallen in love with it. The next thing I knew we were honey-mooning in Panacea! His two children and one grandchild have followed suit. Don't mean to brag but we were among the first non-full time residents to realize that Sunset wasn't just for summer time fun but that spring and fall at the beach is nothing short of wonderful!

What makes this property unique

This haven not only provides a respite from the every day hustle and bustle but after refueling your inner soul for a couple of days you might be interested in venturing out for some shopping, sight-seeing or entertainment.. In the immediate area there is the Sunset Beach park that has a market fair every Thursday morning, the free concerts on Thursday evenings at Sunset Village, and the Bridge Museum and gift shop. Some of our favorite restaurants include the Boundary House, Crab Catchers, Twin Lakes, Crabby Oddwaters, GrapeVine and Chianti South. The Calabash Deli in Calabash can't be beat for quality and quantity! For a great breakfast the rustic southern way, try Big Nell's. Ride north a little ways and there is South Port and Wilmington with the Battleship tour, antique shopping and quaint cafes. Or ride south twenty minutes and there is the Tanger Outlet for fantastic shopping and even more dining options such as Rossi's and Chuck's Steakhouse.
