Overall everything was great! It would have been nice to have a broom and dust pan to sweep with daily.

Thank you for the review, Virginia! We are so grateful you chose Charleston Coast Vacations and we've made a note about the broom and dust pan. We'd love to host you again in the future.
Beautiful view of the ocean. Nice places to eat within walking distance. King Street shopping less than 30 minutes away. Rainbow Row just minutes away. We had a very enjoyable experience.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Great view and nice table & chairs to enjoy it with. 2 Coffee Makers but filters only for 1. Only 2 dishwasher pods provided for a 5 day stay with 4 people. Cleanliness of bathrooms, specifically showers was not good.

Thank you so much for the review, Diane. We appreciate your insight and will be passing this onto our management team. We hope to welcome you back again in the future.
Great location! Beachfront. Staff was helpful and responsive. My only comment is it would have been nice to have salt and pepper available in the kitchen. It would have been a waste to buy it for the few days we were there.

It was the perfect location for our stay on Folly Beach! On the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops. Lots of parking. It is on the 4th floor. There is an elevator. They provide shopping carts for carting your luggage and supplies.Both the bedroom and living room have doors that open to the spacious balcony.

We're so glad you enjoyed your stay at Tides of 5! We'd love to have y'all back to stay with us again soon on the Charleston Coast!
A clean, well managed property, the proximity to Charleston and its many historic homes is convent, and the beach is clean, uncrowded, and steps away (directly on the beach) from this condo unit. We found it to be accurately described and the 3 bedroom-3 bath unit has ample room for four. Check-in and check-out was frictionless.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the convenient location, spacious layout, and easy check-in process. It’s wonderful that you found the condo just as described and appreciated the peaceful, uncrowded beach right outside. We hope to host you again on your next visit to the Charleston area!
Great place to stay location was good. The only problem was the floors were dirty, we had our grandbaby with us who is crawling, so we had to call the office and they brought us a mop out to clean the floors. Everything else in the condo was great.
The view was to die for. Condo was well furnished and very comfortable. Will definitely come back!
