Santosha at Seascape Villa Steps from the Beach
Daphne’s Villa is extremely clean, comfortable, updated/modernized, and peaceful. The boardwalk to the beach is so close. We hope it is available again next year to book, no need to look elsewhere!

Chill Shack - Couples Favorite
5 stars is an understatement, beautiful spot, great amenities, awesome location, great host, super clean and easy checkin/out process

Oceanview Sea Cabin 318B- Isle of Palms, SC!
Can’t say enough. The condo was spectacular. It was the perfect space for my family of four. My kids, who are nine years old and seven years old, loved the bunkbeds. Nikki was extremely accommodating and very responsive. I highly recommend and look forward to our next Charleston trip booking with Nikki.

Perfect spot to enjoy all that Folly Beach offers!
Loved the house and location. We were just far enough from downtown that we couldn’t hear the live music but close enough that it was easily walkable. We also liked being next to the pickleball court. Overall great place and easy access to Charleston for a couple day trips. Would definitely recommend!

Folly Beach - 3 Blocks to Beach - Sleeps 6!
We loved staying here! Super close to the beach and dog park, clean and spacious. Short walk to Center Street. Would definitely stay again!

Sailors Rest: Pool & Sauna Johns Island SC Retreat
I loved everything about this beautiful property, they have everything that you need , it’s very kid friendly, looks just like the pictures and I love that this house is rooted in God !

Two Sisters Folly, Unit B- Marshfront Duplex
The location is great, with a beach access right in front of the house. Downtown is a short drive away but you can also walk, which removes the need to park. The place is old but functional.

Steps from the beach - 1 bedroom - Folly Beach
This was our second stay at Matt’s place. We appreciated how the apartment was close to everything but also quiet and peaceful. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable. Everything was just very well-maintained. If we return to Folly, we will definitely stay here again.

Salt and Sol. Ocean Breezes in a Chic Home.
We enjoyed this Airbnb a lot! Lovely views back and front and the beach is maybe 3 minutes walk (look for the public access sign to the left, about three houses down). Great shower! Lovely kitchen! Comfy sofas! If we ever come back to folly beach, we would love to stay again. For the mobility challenged, it is only 12 steps to front door, unlike a lot of neighboring houses, which are on stilts and have 25+ steps. 😁

Steps from the beach: extraordinary home and yard
Our stay at Melissa’s place was fantastic! She was super responsive from the beginning. We came down for the week of our wedding so we were pretty stressed, but Melissa took away some of that stress by making our stay phenomenal. The house is absolutely gorgeous, colorful and fun! It was a fantastic space for a big family and pets. Our dogs loved having a yard to play in and space for the kids to run around with. Melissa also checked in with me after we had settled in and made sure we were happy with the accommodations. The house was also clean and tidy both inside and out back. Would highly recommend this home for your next stay in the area! We will definitely be back!

Lux Beach Bungalow Ocean Views Heated Pool
We had an incredible stay at this beachside duplex. The location and house were perfect. Just steps from the beach, it was so easy to return for snacks, clean bathroom breaks, or staggered showers with our group of 8. The house was spotless, spacious, and stocked with everything we needed (including fridge condiments!). We loved the pool, porches with cozy furniture, provided beach chairs, and the fun garage setup. Being right across from Bert’s Market was a total win. It had everything from snacks to late-night people watching. We were also within walking distance of great restaurants, the pier, and even pickleball courts. Jessie and Robin were outstanding. They sent detailed guidebooks for both Folly Beach and Charleston and checked in many times during our stay. Best of all, they were flexible and understanding when our flights were delayed. The combination of comfort, location, and thoughtful hosting made this a truly special getaway. We would absolutely stay here again!

Direct beach access, Oceanfront - 1575 E Ashley
We were visiting Folly Beach for the first time for a Girl's Trip! We loved staying right on the beach and enjoyed walking on it daily. We enjoyed the tips that they provided us for restaurants nearby. We were within drivable distance to downtown Charleston and some of the local plantations. The house was perfect for our needs and very comfortable for six ladies.

Cottage by the Sea
We had the most wonderful stay at this beachfront Airbnb! From the moment we arrived, our host was incredibly accommodating, making sure all our needs were met. The house was exactly what we were looking for – a relaxing, lowkey getaway for our family by the beach. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the sand, and the home itself was well-equipped for a peaceful weekend. It had everything we needed to unwind, from the cozy couch to the backyard for evening hangouts. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet beach retreat!

3 Summer Dunes - Renovated Ocean View Beach House!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL home less than a minute walk from the beach! It was the perfect location for our long awaited reunion with our closest friends. Everyone absolutely loved everything about this place! 10/10

Exquisite 3bdrm/3bath Folly Beach home; near beach
Excellent location — house is a block away from the Market and restaurants, but on a quiet street. Less used beach access trail is adjacent to the house which was very convenient

Luxury Beach Front Pet Friendly
Great place for a couple's getaway in the perfect location with everything you need in one place. Hope to return!
Condo rentals with beach access

On the Beach-End Unit! Enjoy Dolphins & Sunsets!
Amazing is the best word to describe John’s condo. Check-in was a breeze with clear instructions. The condo was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed for a beach vacation. There were tons of pots and pans in the kitchen and lots of beach supplies on the deck. Th location and access to the beach cannot be beat! Communication with John was excellent. I am already planning a return trip to the condo.

Dunes West-beachside Port O'Call
Mona was great and provided all sorts of information on the area. The condo was lovely and very quiet.

Key Lime Condo
The place was amazing!! Perfect location!! Will definitely be booking again! Perfect get away for 2!!

Newly renovated Oceanfront Condo ~ Isle of Palms
Perfect for a couple to enjoy a beach getaway. Elizabeth was available and very helpful!

The Best of Kiawah | Walk to Beach | Updated Condo
Chandler was very helpful when we had something come up the day of our check-in. He was super helpful, quick to respond, and easy to communicate with. The unit was just as pictured, tastefully decorated, and super clean. His check-in instructions were very easy to follow and the welcome book inside the unit answered any questions we had during the stay. We enjoyed morning coffee and evening cocktails on the screened porch. Peaceful and relaxing, just what we were looking for. We would definitely stay here again!

**Newly Renovated** Oceanfront Villa
Such a great spot, perfect for our babymoon getaway! Absolutely beautiful location, the beach is quite literally right in your backyard. Extremely quiet, private, and peaceful area. Very easy walk (0.3 ish miles) to coffee/breakfast in the morning at The Nest. We enjoyed the Ocean Room and Hege’s both for fantastic dinners. Freshfields shopping is also an easy drive for shops, groceries, and lunch spots. Ron was a wonderful host - we’d love to return!

1st Floor Coastal Villa, W/ Pool, Steps to Beach
Loved everything. Great spot for a perfect getaway.

Oceanfront Villa-pool/pier, fishing, stunning view
Stayed for a few days with our small family. Grateful for the easy walks to the beach and the pool. There was plenty of play gear available for the beach. The kitchen was well stocked for a good cup of coffee and to accommodate some simple meals for our picky children. Great views in the morning, too!
