Great Family Vacation

I would highly recommend this place for a larger family. We had our kids and girl friends come along (8 of us) and was great that we all had our own bedrooms and bathrooms. The place was very clean and had great views of the ocean. We vacation alot in Folly and would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful beach, sunset, and night sky views. This unit is beautifully appointed, but also has a comfortable feel. It couldn't be more convenient to access the beach. Our car stayed parked most of the time we were there. The restaurants are all a short walk away.

This was the perfect condo for the 3 generations to stay while visiting the area for a family wedding.

We're glad you enjoyed your time at Sandy Pause! We always have a helpful staff on hand to assist with any items like batteries! As for the heat, sometimes after going months without being used, the system needs to burn off a bit of dust which unfortuantely may set off some alarms, but shouldn't last for long! We'd love to have y'all back to stay with us again on the Charleston Coast sometime soon.

This place was completely remodeled and super clean. Location right on the beach only 2 block walk to all shops and restaurants. Including close walk to pier as well. Balcony was amazing and each room was spacious with its own bathroom. Kitchen fully stocked and beverage fridge/bar area a bonus!
