Great location! Beachfront. Staff was helpful and responsive. My only comment is it would have been nice to have salt and pepper available in the kitchen. It would have been a waste to buy it for the few days we were there.

It was the perfect location for our stay on Folly Beach! On the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops. Lots of parking. It is on the 4th floor. There is an elevator. They provide shopping carts for carting your luggage and supplies.Both the bedroom and living room have doors that open to the spacious balcony.

A clean, well managed property, the proximity to Charleston and its many historic homes is convent, and the beach is clean, uncrowded, and steps away (directly on the beach) from this condo unit. We found it to be accurately described and the 3 bedroom-3 bath unit has ample room for four. Check-in and check-out was frictionless.

Great place to stay location was good. The only problem was the floors were dirty, we had our grandbaby with us who is crawling, so we had to call the office and they brought us a mop out to clean the floors. Everything else in the condo was great.

Awesome condo

Absolutely the perfect condo. We have stayed twice and enjoyed it both times. The only complaint is there need to be a center entrance to the beach from the elevator but that has nothing to do with this rental.
