Thank you for your 5 star review! It was a pleasure hosting your group and we look forward to hosting you next time!
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.

Thank you for your 5 star review! We are so glad you enjoyed the home's location and amenities, and we look forward to hosting you again in the future!
We enjoyed this home. The kitchen was by far the best equipped kitchen we have encountered. The setting was quiet and relaxing which was our goal. The home was spacious with so many seating options. We would not hesitate to book again.

Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay! We look forward to hosting you again on your next trip to Folly Beach!
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.

Thank you so much for your kind words and feedback! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the house overall, the well-stocked kitchen, and those beautiful beach views, it really is a special spot. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
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.

Thank you for the 5 star review! Dolphins Folly really is in a wonderful spot and we are glad that you enjoyed your stay there. It was a pleasure hosting your group and we hope you stay with us again, next time you visit Folly Beach.
Amazing house! Very clean. We saw dolphins every day and even got to see the turtles hatch about 50 yards from our doorstep. Couldn't recommend this house more. Thank you!

That's incredible! We're absolutely thrilled to hear you had such an amazing stay at the house.
Seeing dolphins every day is truly special, but witnessing turtles hatching just 50 yards from your doorstep sounds like an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience! We're so glad you got to be a part of that.
Thank you for your wonderful review and for highly recommending our home. We hope to welcome you back for more incredible memories in the future!
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!!

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 Vacation
Great house on the beach, comfortable, and great location.
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.

Dolphin folly
The house was beautiful and super clean. This was a worry for us because 4 years ago with a different company we went through the house was dirty .
So to say the least we were very happy with vacasa
Perfect spot, there was nothing that the owners didn't think of at the house. Well appointed kitchen (so many of the rentals skimp here) and nicely decorated. Will stay again if I'm in Folly again.

Perfect location - very nice property
The immediate access to the beach and view were the highlight of course. The home was bright and open and fairly clean. Many areas inside and out to relax alone or together. Plenty of lighting options and places to plug into. The kitchen was fully stocked with dining, serving and cookware and had basics like salt, pepper, a bit of sugar etc. One set of towels per person (two bath towels, hand towel and wash cloth)-- there is a washer dyer.
We thought there were DVD players - so, we brought box of DVDs as we knew it would be raining part of our stay. There were none, nor an HDMI cable to hook our laptop into for access to play our Plex movies. Just FYI for future visitors. Bring binoculars if you enjoy looking out to sea, and bring beach towels, chairs etc.
There were also a good selections of books and board games. We would definitely stay here again.
