It was centrally located between Folly Beach and Downtown Charleston. It was in a quiet neighborhood, which made it a nice respite from the traffic and crowds. The bed was very comfortable, so we both got much needed sleep at the end of the day. We had a kitchenette that had everything we could need.for our stay. The price was also quite reasonable for what you got. The owners were very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. I would recommend Island Nest to anyone visiting the Charleston area!
The shower stall was too small, but it certainly didn't ruin our stay.

convenient location quick beach ride and beautiful backyard, lots of community beach gear are available if you get to them before anyone else.
I was a bit mislead by the "kitchen statement" the unit has a Fridge and toaster inside the unit. There are BBq pits outside which leaves you a bit limmited. For the price i was expecting better cooking accommodations and prep area and counter space .

This place is somewhat like being in a tree house. It is high up above the back half of the house and has a fantastic view of tranquility and calm. Here you can shut off the stress and enjoy the quiet. The apartment itself is cozy with a large bed facing the windows with a view over the back half of the yard. The TV is mounted above the fireplace.
The kitchen is really no nonsense. There is no running water in the indoor dining area but there is a refrigerator,
a table for 2, a coffee machine, and a microwave.
A real plus for this place is the outdoor kitchen for your pivate use including a large propane grill and running water with sink, refrigerator, and flat screen TV. There is enough furniture to easily sit 6 people for a nice grill evening.
There are two very comfortable chairs on the other side of the main entrance that are perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or reading a book.
All in all, a very nice place for a romantic getaway.
The lack of an indoor kitchen makes things a bit awkward. Dirty dishes (breakfast dishes) have to be washed outside in the outdoor sink, cooking coffee means empting the filter in the apartment but taking everything outside to the outdoor kitchen to be washed (you can get water from the bathroom sink) You have to know how to use a propane grill to cook anything warm (we didn’t know how to turn it on)
The bathroom was an open concept meaning that the shower, sinks and bathtub were just few feet from the refrigerator and eating area. No matter where you stand/sit/lie down, every corner of the bathroom area is visible. The toilet was a small area but did have a door.
The beach equipment is free for the guests to use but the chairs could have used a clean-up. Not very inviting!
This is a place for couples only as you will have no privacy but you can make it a romantic getaway.

Everything was just dam near perfect. No drama whatsoever, lots of communication from the owners. I would update the shower enclosure and the tiny toilet. The TV worked great, easy in and out, parking on-site greatly appreciated.
Update shower enclosure to prevent water damage, try to center the toilet. We didn't use the outside facilities much though everything worked. Not much to complain about at all.

Amazing location. Great host. Has just about everything you need already in the place like dishes, kitchen appliances, ironing board, etc.
The toilet room and shower were very cramped for a bigger person. Not their fault.

Great attention to detail. This is what a private room should look like.

The location was excellent. Short drive to the beach and into Charleston.
Property definitely needs a sink for washing dishes inside.

Spacious and great location. Easy to downtown Charleston and Folly Beach.
