We had a nice stay as the property was right on the beach. 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bath, balconies, screened-in porch. Spacious for the 8 of us. Excellent sunrise view and sand strolling. Ping pong table and cornhole. Grill (charcoal, not propane). We rented beach equipment. Walking distance to pleasant seafood restaurants and for breakfast/lunch. Only 30 minutes to historic Charleston and Mount Pleasant (movie and miniature golf/arcade). Very relaxing.

We liked this house and loved the location! We really appreciated the start-up toiletries and kitchen essentials. Not all rentals do that and we wanted you to know it was noted and appreciated. The top level of the house is beautiful, excellent for entertaining with the open floor plan. Spent most of our time on the screened in deck off of the living room. Of course it needs some updates, but for a rental, it served its purpose for us! The management company has been 5 star, so responsive and quick to address any issues. Thank you for everything, we look forward to visiting Folly again!

Enjoyed the various outdoor living spaces, large kitchen and location. Just steps to beach and a short bike ride to town. Plenty of parking.

This is our second year staying at this property. We have all adult children so the configuration of the two living areas plus the space in the bedrooms and the double decks allow people to engage in so many activities simultaneously,; well-stocked kitchen, which opens right into a dining room and a big open room thatprovides priceless family time. Of course this property is just on the beach. The management of the property on site has just changed. There is no longer free cancellation.

Wonderful house with plenty of large open living areas, great views, and just a short walk to the beach. Beach is wide with shallow warm water and big tide pools-perfect for younger kids. We did have a toilet overflow soon after arriving but Vacasa management responded quickly. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful property within steps of the beach. The decks and porches have unobstructed views of the water. Comfortable furniture, lots of seating for the 8 of us. Kitchen well stocked. Highly recommend. A note to maintenance: two lights out in master bath. And to cleaning services: only one roll of toilet paper in master bath. All the others had an extra roll. No big deal.

We loved staying here. Incredible ocean views with open and covered porches which we utilized fully. Close to downtown Folly and also tennis courts walking distance!

This house is very spacious and accommodated our family well. The multiple living spaces and outside deck spaces were great for our group. There is a public beach access next door which made the neighborhood a bit busy but didn’t really bother us. The beach access is easy and there was everything we needed. I would recommend that people bring their own each towels as there are none provided. It’s a great place to stay.

We used to live in Charleston, so we had a pretty good idea of what we wanted for a vacation stay in Folly. This was a perfect spot. Incredible outdoor space, great bedrooms, Safe for our kids, it really had it all. We had one very minor hiccup with a fire alarm battery dying but the maintenance team was helpful to quickly communicate and come over and sort that out for us. We’d love to stay here again as we plan many repeat trips back to Folly/Charleston

Hakuna Matata surpassed our expectations. I’m hesitant to rave about it because selfishly we’ll be staying again and it’ll be to hard to book. But it was so nice. It was so well equipped we lacked nothing. It was extremely clean and the elevator was a huge plus. I might add we had a local company put up a tent on the beach every day, which was helpful and we rented a golf cart, which was a huge hit! We felt Hakuna Matata was particularly blessed by a loggerhead turtle that built her nest right off the path to the beach! What a treat!
