Bayview's Secret

AllanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Rich was great! He made the stay easy and enjoyable. He even provided a couple of bikes to get around with. We could ride around the neighborhood, to Shem Creek, and we even went downtown for a day. Whatever our day included, there was a great place to come back to and relax.

Water life “Aquavida”

CamrynRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I lived in Charleston for five years and staying here was the best “welcome home”. From the moment we booked, Brianna was helpful, communicative, and pleasant. Check-in was easy and the place was gorgeous and exactly as described. We even said that “this was the first time that an Airbnb felt like home” and we meant it. Ample entertainment (dvd, Roku tvs, speaker), stunning view, perfect location, and SO many beach chairs, umbrellas, floats, kids games, buckets etc. We hope to visit again and bring our whole family! Modern fixtures and appliances that were easy to use. If I ever need an Airbnb in Charleston again, I will definitely be staying here if it’s available. My only drawback was that it was really warm in the home when we arrived but it cooled down by the time we returned from dinner. Other than that, no complaints! I definitely recommend staying here.

Great house with plenty of space, a screened in porch that we used often. Nice kitchen allowed for meals at home. Very good location with only a few minute walk to the beach and a 30 minute drive to downtown Charleston. Melissa was thorough with her instructions and thoughtful with her recommendations.

Charleston Waterfront Retreat w/ Deep Water Dock

JudyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful home and surroundings. 3 couples with personal spaces and large communal spaces to gather. Very comfortable and clean. Recommend Kiss Cafe for breakfast. We also went through Savor Charleston and had Chef Morgan and her assistant prepare and serve a dinner at the house- fabulous food and was relaxing to just enjoy the views and the wonderful home. Highly recommend! It's no wonder their home receives the 5 star reviews!

Bohicket River Retreat

The location was amazing. We booked this listing to get away and it definitely allowed us to do that. The grounds are beautiful and make you want to just sit and watch all the wildlife around you. Cyndi and Stephen were amazing hosts. They went out of their way to make sure we had a great experience. 10 out of 10 would recommend this listing. The house was immaculate and stocked with everything you need.

Best views on Folly!

TomRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Joe & Claire were great hosts, very personable. Stayed 5 nites in late April/early May. Beautiful location: decks on all levels/sides, sweeping views of marsh in back, high up views of ocean across street in front. Many perfect spots to sit depending on sun & wind. Great views of sunrise & sunset, lighthouse, etc. Furnishings comfortably accommodated gatherings for our family of 5 adults, tastefully decorated too. Kitchen well equipped, beach chairs/towels provided. Besides food/drink/personal items, can’t think of anything we wanted that wasn’t already there. We experienced one significant house utility issue that disrupted our stay, outside anyone’s control. Joe had it repaired and equitably resolved the impact to us. Location next best thing to beachfront, beach access just 100yd down road. Peacefully removed from busy central Folly Beach town area and just 5min ride to many casual restaurant/entertainment options there. Also easy 30min trip to Charleston for exploring and dinner.

On the Beach-End Unit! Enjoy Dolphins & Sunsets!

MarkRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Pelican Watch is a beautiful place on Seabrook. The beach is a 2 minute walk from the backdoor with a great view from the back porch. You need a car to get to most restaurants but great places are 10-20 minutes away. Harris Teeter is well stocked nearby with great steaks and seafood as well as wine. I’d definitely stay here again.

Newly renovated Oceanfront Condo ~ Isle of Palms

ChrisRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Elizabeth responded quickly to questions. She is friendly and goes out of her way to make you feel welcome. We enjoyed her condo so much we extended our stay. The condo itself was very clean and exactly as advertised. Very close to private pier and beach. Was nice to go to the beach without the crowds of public beaches. Very close to Patriotic Point, Forts Sumpter and Moultrie. Many restaurants within walking distance. We hope to make it back next year!

Oceanfront Villa-pool/pier, fishing, stunning view

HannahRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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!

Better than the pictures! I’m a clean freak and this place matched my expectations. It’s was enough space for my husband, my baby, my dog and me. Lisa was very responsive and answered our questions while we were there. I appreciated the white noise machine too! We will make this our official beach AirBnB
