Great Location for family & friends
We used the property for a low key new years. It was a great location right on the beach, but still close enough to town. Perfect for morning walks/runs, dolphin watching and relaxation. Would definitely love to stay here again!

Wonderful, Easy & Comfortable Beach Getaway
This house is beautiful and the location is perfect. Minutes from the Folly Pier and an easy drive into Charleston / King Street for day out shopping. Everything was easy from beginning to end. The hosts are extremely attentive and made sure our stay was comfortable. I highly recommend this property for your next Folly Beach getaway.

Reunion
The home is in a beautiful location and has plenty of room. It is right on the beach and the views are wonderful. The home was clean and worked well for our reunion. Considering the daily cost of the home we were quite surprised and disappointed in the number of maintenance issues that need to be addressed. We informed the company of the problems and hope that they will be taken care of for future guests.

Family Vacation
We had a great stay at this home in Folly Beach. The house was super clean and tidy when we arrived! They had everything we needed during our stay and the Avant Stay team was very tentative to our needs and making sure there were no issues regarding our stay. I would say the one problem we had was that the ceiling was leaking from the vents at one point, i’m sure due to the humidity outside and the cooler temperature inside the house. Overall great experience and would book this home again!

Overall it was good, one room had trash on the floor. There were not enough dish towels for kitchen and there were no hot pads. There was a step that was broken that could have posed a danger. The broken crack in the driveway was worrisome, so we just avoided it.

Great Stay at Folly Beach
We had a fantastic stay at the Poseidon in Folly Beach. The location is in a great section of the beach that has low traffic and is very beautiful. The property was well-maintained and had everything we needed. The only issue for older guests would be that the elevator was not working, but that was not an issue with our group.

Unforgettable Experience: Comfort, Style and Location
This property is AMAZING! Spacious, welcoming, clean. I loved that the master suite was on the main floor with the other bedrooms below. We loved waking up every moring to vibrant hues of the sunrise, we loved the beach just steps from the door. The property managers are very quick to respond if you have any questions. Easy check in, no problems. The house was well equipped to host families. The location is perfect, the people are great. I would live here permanently, that's how fantastic it was. The elevator was not working during our stay...but that really didn't matter to us, we prefer the stairs anyways!!!! Hope to come back again for a longer stay.

Big house at Folly Beach
Large home with tons of space inside and out for our big family. The home is stylishly furnished and well equipped. We enjoyed dinner on the porch that seats 10-12 plus all the Adirondack chairs on both decks. Most bedrooms have ensuite baths and TV for privacy when desired. The HVAC wasn't working upstairs so portable units were brought in. Unfortunately, it took a while for them to catch up on the warm day of our arrival. An HVAC company came out but needed to order parts to complete the repair. The portable units worked ok for us as the weather had cooled during our stay. Kudos to the cleaning team as the house was immaculate. There are two or three of everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay. The owners do need to address the blinds and curtains as well as some other general maintenance to make this a repeatable rental.

Family beach trip
The property is in a beautiful spot with great access and views of the ocean. My family had a great time. The house was clean but not well maintained. One exterior door was broken. The kitchen had only 8 forks and no wine opener. Several light bulbs needed to be replaced. I'd read another review before booking so was not surprised. We still enjoyed our stay.

Great location poorly maintained
The location is fantastic. But there are many fantastic oceanfront rental options. Was clean and AvantStay as a manager was great. BUT … the house needs some maintenance. Many light bulbs were blown (all kitchen lights didn’t work), broken switches, door handles, toilet seat, doors wouldn’t close all the way. Fireplace didn’t work (we stayed in winter). Perhaps nit picky but this is a thousand dollar plus a night rental. I was expecting better.

Great location and house for a family
It is a great family house. Chloe and Jake were wonderful. They were quick to replace the grill that was not usable and to bring us extra items that were missing. We had one day that plumbers were there to replace one toilet and repair the other 4. We had an infant with us and the living area carpet was really dirty. Pillows and blankets in closet were not clean. The washer was full of sand. Which was most likely the last people that stayed there, didn’t follow direction. For the price I felt things should of been cleaner.

Fantastic location but rental agency was not responsive
We have visited Folly many times. We have family in the area and come down several times a year. This is the first time staying at this particular property. The location is great as we love to visit the lighthouse and we could walk there from the house. The house was very spacious and clean and for our group of 8 adults a perfect size. We loved the common areas and was able to eat either on the porch or inside at the same table. The issue we has was on the first day the elevator my mother and I were on dropped about a foot and got stuck. She is very claustrophobic and started to panic right away. My husband was able to help us jump about 5 feet down (mom is 75) but my main issue is the lack of response from the rental agency. I called the emergency number when we were stuck and it took 32 minutes for anyone to return my call. That agent was not helpful at all and said someone else would need to call me back. I did eventually get a text message from the rental saying someone would swing by to check. Needless to say the elevator never got fixed and I have yet to receive a call checking on us. I specifically picked this house because I have my 75 year old mother, my husband who is getting ready to have a knee replacement and our friend who is out of work with a back injury and wanted everyone to have access without all the stairs. My friend was not able to attend the James Island lights because he back hurt him so bad. If many stairs are not an issue for your group then this is a great property to stay in but do not pick it if you need the elevator.
