Perfect Location and very clean
This was probably the most clean and organized VRBO that I've ever stayed in. Would definitely come back. Great location and great porch. The only negative (only slight) is the walking upstairs in the Penthouse. Many times you could hear people walking around early in the morning.

This property is well maintained. The owners have stocked it with everything you will need. There were amenities that took me by surprise. Thanks. We were in Charleston for a Citadel graduation and officer commissioning so did not experience Folly Beach much but enjoyed our stay in the Blue Starfish.

Wonderful beach stay
We've been coming to Folly for years and stayed in many other condos and houses. This is one of the best hands down. Steve and Maureen are wonderful hosts. The offered us an early check in and a late check out. The condo has everything you could ever want or need for a week long stay. The location is perfect, just a few steps to the beach and the amazing Berts Market and a block to center street. We'll definitely be staying again!

Great Stay in Folly!
The Blue Starfish was an awesome stay! Fantastic location with an amazing view of the ocean, and quick walk to the beach and all the restaurants. Their hospitality was unmatched, and really made our short stay feel like home. We definitely recommend this property for couples, or a young family, and hope to be back again someday!

Very comfortable with everything we needed to enjoy Folly Beach for a few days. Right across the street from the beach, one block from restaurants, and pretty much the end of the driveway for coffee and breakfast (and a drink). Great owners as well. Thank you!

The Blue Starfish will not disappoint! This was our first time visiting Folly Beach and it will not be our last. We lucked out finding the condo and you couldn’t ask for a better location. Even my two teenagers complimented on how nice the condo was and the convenience of its location. Very clean, beautifully decorated, and had so many little thoughtful touches they didn’t go unnoticed. Thank you for making this trip even better.

Stephen and Maureen are fabulous hosts! They are very easy to work with and have a great spot for any visitor to Folly. The condo is so clean and cute. It’s up-to-date, and you can tell the place is well taken care of. The decor is pretty and fun, and it has an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. The location is the best - the view of the ocean and sounds of the waves, immerse you when on their deck. And the short walk to all the restaurants and shops is awesome! We loved staying there, and hope to be back!

very clean and of course best part of this trip was being able to walk across the street and be at Folly Beach! Also a bunch of cool places nearby (Lowlife bar was a good spot during our rainy day), a great coffee truck a block away. 20-30 min car ride from some restaurants we chose to go out of our way for in downtown Charleston and this worked out super well!
