About this property

Stunning Marsh & Ocean Views... Freshly renovated in 2023!

Our Santorini cottage has sweeping views of the marsh and Folly River with peeks of the ocean just across the street. Fully remodeled and newly offered as a vacation rental, Santorini Cottage features a new gourmet kitchen, spacious ceramic tile bathrooms, two large covered porches facing ocean and marsh, a large outdoor shower overlooking the marsh, and three comfortable bedrooms each complete with smart televisions, luxury linens, dreamcloud matresses and ceiling fans.

Located on the quiet east end of the island, we are just a short walk to the Morris Island light house and directly across the street from the beach. Sunset views from the rear deck are some of the best anywhere on the island !! As this home is located directly next door to our primary residence, parties involving guests not already sleeping in the home are not allowed.

Gorgeous Sunset Views and home

The sunsets over the marsh are breathtaking. The home is decorated so well and had extremely comfortable beds. The layout was perfect for our family and we loved that we were just off the beaten path for quieter relaxation. Highly recommend Santorini Cottage.

Beautiful House and Property

I can't say anything negative about the house, property or location. It was all we were hoping for and more. The house is perfectly beach themed decorated, location is right across the street from the beach, the views off the back porch were stunning, especially the sunsets. We walked around the neighborhood quite a bit and this house had one of the best cared for properties in our area. The host Steven was more than accommodating and you can tell Steven and Michael take pride in this property! Don't hesitate to book this charm! Folly Beach was super laid back, great vibe, remined me of Key West days before Cruise Ships could dock there. Can't wait to come back!!

Seriously sublime Santorini cottage

We can't say enough about this charming Folly Beach house. The basics--extremely clean, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds with nice linens, a host that was hospitable and easy to communicate with. Beyond the basics--gorgeous views of the marsh from the back deck; wonderful, peaceful location close to beach access. The house is comfortable but also tasteful and well-decorated. We loved being there, had a wonderful time and can't wait to visit again.

Simply Wonderful!

We have rented many VRBO homes. This is right up there with the best! Layout worked perfectly for our two couples plus an extra bedroom. Incredible view of sunsets over the marsh out the back. Easy walk to the uncrowded beach. So many comfortable conversation spots in the house. Well done!

Beautiful Marsh View

We loved our stay, the house was beautiful and functional and the view of the marsh off the back porch was stunning! The house is very close to the beach access and at the end of the block is a park that leads to a lighthouse! The owners next door were super kind and we’d definitely stay here again!

Paradise!

This house is pure bliss - the location at the lighthouse end of the island where it’s quiet, the beautiful decor, the comfy dreamcloud bed, the exceptional stocked kitchen with a view of the river, the stunning sunsets on the back porch, and the hospitality of the owners. Everything they touch is gold.

Beautiful Views and Home

We really enjoyed our stay! You are located on nice quiet street within walking distance of washout beach. I loved being able to watch the sunrise as I walked along the beach. The sunsets were equally impressive sitting out on the back deck. The home was very welcoming and the beds were comfy! I'd definitely recommend staying here.

Relaxing Time on Folly with Friends

We loved our stay here! The marsh views are stunning and the front and back porches are perfect for relaxing any time of day. The house is decorated to perfection and the large kitchen with the faboulous island for gathering around was great. This was our friends first stay on Folly and I think they might be hooked...

Wow factor rental!

This house has the wow factor. Inside is spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen had everything you needed to make a meal. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms large. The best part is the view. The back deck has amazing views over the marsh with colorful sunsets. The front deck has small ocean views through the houses but the sea breezes make it a great place to spend time relaxing. The beach access is across the street and a few houses down in either direction. You couldn't have more attentive owners that take great pride in their property and great care of you while there. I would definitely book this place again.

In downtown Charleston, we have 3 apartments located near our restaurant Stella's, that are available for 30 day furnished rentals as well! If any questions at all about any of these other properties or the area, do not hesitate to reach out. We love Charleston and our island and are always excited to share!
