Great house just a short walk to the beach! House had space for all of us, the kids really enjoyed the fourth floor sleeping/game room along with the pool.The elevator saved bringing in the suitcases and food, along with helping me get to the fourth floor to see the kids.Unit had plenty of towels and beach chairs. Could use a bench at the front door to store and put shoes on along with a few hooks to hang items.Beach was great, went to several local parks and on air boats! Definitely try Sno Cones before Chris and Hot Mama’s BBQ!

This was a fabulous property and everything they said about it in the listing was accurate. Very clean, lots of space, wonderful communication, the kitchen was well stocked with almost every appliance you could think of. The pool was lovely. We had a lot of cars and parking was an issue due to parking enforcement but we were able to park in the garage so that allowed us to make the room we needed. We would return to this property

The house had everything that you need for your vacation. Biggest complaint I have is you can hear everyone around you when they are outside because you are so close to everyone else, and the parking situation is very small. Other than that the house was fantastic and it’s in a great location.

Thank you for your review. We’re glad you found the home well-equipped, enjoyed the location, and had a fantastic stay overall. The homes in this beach community are located close together, so outdoor activity from neighboring properties can sometimes be heard. Parking is also limited to the home’s designated spaces. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back.

Our family of 12 loved this place! We had 5 children and they never wanted to leave the house. The pool was perfect. We felt safe in the gated community. The house was spotless when we arrived. It had everything that we needed in the kitchen. We rented a golf cart and that’s highly recommended because it’s a tough walk to and from the beach with kids/beach stuff. They thought of everything including wagons and pool and beach toys. We just can’t say enough about this place. It was beautiful and perfect. Will definitely stay again!!!

Amazing! The house was pretty well equipped for a group that likes to cook. Great size for 8 adults and 5 littles. The pool in constant shade was a game-changers for us. Highly recommend renting the golf cart, but thought it was expensive. Eating out one night proven impossible for a group our size though.

Perfect family home for all ages

The pool was toasty warm for daily swimming even with cooler Spring Break weather (60-70s outside temp)! House is very clean, new and tastefully decorated. Big comfy beds. Plenty of beach and bath towels. Well stocked playroom, pool and garage to keep kids entertained. 2min drive/golf cart ride to the beach.

Amazing home

This house is gorgeous!! We rented it for a girls weekend, and had everything we needed. We could walk to the restaurant next to the neighborhood, the beach club was a quick drive and we stayed in the heated pool all of Saturday watching football. The owners made sure we had everything we needed, and we really didn’t even need to leave the house once we arrived. We will definitely go back!!!

Family Trip

Our experience at this rental unit was fantastic. It catered perfectly to our needs as a large group, especially with children in tow. The kitchen boasted excellent amenities, ensuring convenience in meal preparation. The rooms and beds were exceptionally comfortable, guaranteeing a restful stay. The kids' room was thoughtfully equipped to keep them entertained throughout our visit. Furthermore, there was an abundance of pool and beach toys available, adding to the fun. The owner went above and beyond by providing carts and chairs for our beach outings, enhancing our overall experience. Definity a 5 star stay..

Propery is absolutely beautiful. We were so happy our experience.The house it a decent walk (20 minutes) from the beach, so it’s not quite as close as is represented in the listing. We made it work by grabbing a golf cart, however that didn’t help with our 9 month old neice.The property is thoughtfully stocked with beach towels and ameneties that make the experience extra special.Although there were a few small issues, the management company was quick to respond and resolve. We appreciated the attention to resolving issues quickly so that we could enjoy our vacation (which we did!).We can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful home close to Folly Beach!!!

This home was absolutely beautiful. The owners made sure there was everything a visitor could need and more! If you have younger children the pool was amazing, was equipped with plenty of toys and they went beyond for adults as well! The home is brand new, beautifully decorated and easy to move from floor to floor with the very cool elevator! We loved our stay and couldn’t recommend this wonderful home more highly! Homes are close together so privacy might be an issue for some but it wasn’t for us. We loved 57 Sandcastle! They even had sweet local gifts for us!!! Charming, thoughtful and beautiful!

Excellent Rental

I have rented multiple homes in the past and am an owner myself. The house itself was big and accommodate our large party of 15 guests. Location was ideal as it was a 10 min walk to the beach. We were able to use the wagons and cooler to take things down without having to load a car. The house had enough amenities and was vary spacious. We did not feel like it was crowded as everyone had their space. First day we had an issue with one of the bathrooms and the property management company responded back quickly and was able to fix the problem. Would recommend staying here.

The home and service from Sea Turtle Vacation Rentals exceeded our expectations. The home was very clean and fully equipped with essential items. We were expecting to have to purchase a lot of things we would need but the house already had most of what we needed. We had an issue with one of the toilets clogging and the elevator not working, so we reached out to the management company and they responded almost immediately to resolve the issues. We will book in the future!
