Great location with spectacular beach views. Kids had fun with the Tiki Toss game on the back porch. Only minor complaint is that the in-door ice maker didn’t work. Would definitely stay here again.

On the beach..can’t ask for anything more

Amazing ocean views from every room. Can’t beat walking out to the beach from your own private deck. Comfortable beds, clean, lots of outside seating. We rented bikes and biked all over the island.

The house was beautiful and well stocked with kitchen supplies and amenities. Beautiful views from every window facing the beach. The only negative was the master bedroom mattress was a bit hard and uncomfortable and the gas grill was not working but not negative enough that the overall stay was great.

Incredible

We feel so lucky to have found this beautiful property to rent. It’s on the beach, gorgeous views from every room. In the mornings I’d drink my coffee inside while watching my kids boogie board in the ocean and even saw many dolphins! The house is beautiful, spacious, cozy and comfy. They stock it well with mostly everything you need, esp in the kitchen! We will def come again!!

Folly Perfection

This house is absolutely beautiful. Incredible location, awesome beach and just steps from your deck! Well appointed with every amenity and convenience. Close to water activities and easy access to all that Charleston has to offer, especially wonderful restaurants. We had a minor house issue that was very quickly responded to and fixed. Wonderful service. We loved our week here and hope to return!!

Great views!

Love this ocean front house. We have stayed here the last four years with my family. The house itself is set up great with a master downstairs and two substantial bedrooms upstairs. The downstairs master bath needs a major renovation for the price they charge to stay here. I will say I was very disappointed to see the enormous hike in the price for the 2023 summer season. It’s close to almost double what we paid this year. I guess this will be our last year at Dolphins Folly. The Vacasa crew was wonderful!

Great house; poorly maintained

The house is beautiful and very well located. However. Several important items were broken: including the dishwasher, one of the outdoor dining chairs, and the sliding door to one of the decks, which would not open at all, rendering the deck totally inaccessible. The management company was unresponsive and unhelpful. If you are going to charge top dollar for a property you should keep it in good repair.
