Adults-only Sunset Beach Bed & Breakfast with private screened porches and marsh views

Amenities and Services

The Sunset Inn is an adults-only, non-smoking bed and breakfast with 98 rooms on Sunset Beach. Larger than a typical B&B, The Sunset Inn offers sun loungers, beach chairs, and sun umbrellas, plus a private storage room for each guest unit for beach gear, scooters, or bicycles. The Sunset Inn's landscaped grounds include rocking chairs and swings.

Rooms and Suites

All 98 rooms at The Sunset Inn have king-sized beds and private screened porches. Each themed room includes a wet bar, flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower. Select rooms provide a jetted tub, like the Bird Island Room, with rocking chairs and marsh views from the porch.

Location

The Sunset Inn sits a five-minute walk from one of the widest beaches on the East Coast. Myrtle Beach International Airport is 60 km away, Alabama Theater and Aberdeen Country Club are 30 km away, and Sea Gallery is 6 km away. Doe Creek Art Gallery is 14 km from the property, and Sunset River Marketplace, Planet Fun entertainment center, and House of Blues are nearby.

Breakfast and Dining

The Sunset Inn serves a continental breakfast each morning in the breakfast room. The spread includes fresh-baked breads such as cranberry and cinnamon streusel, hot oatmeal, boiled eggs, and a hot dish like spinach frittata with bacon. Guests can carry breakfast trays to their rooms and eat on their private screened porches.

Nearby Attractions and Entertainment

Planet Fun entertainment center and House of Blues are near The Sunset Inn and offer activities and cultural events. The beach has multiple ramps with wheelchair access directly to the sand, and the pier is within walking distance.

“The inn's charm lies in its quiet comfort, where themed rooms and marsh views invite a sense of peaceful retreat. Mornings here are defined by an exceptional breakfast spread and the gentle marsh breeze from a screened porch. It's a place that feels thoughtfully managed, making the short walk to the beach feel even more rewarding.”
