This oceanfront 1 bedroom 1 bath condo is both charming and cozy. It features hardwood floors, a gas log fireplace, new kitchen cabinets, granite counters, stainless appliances travertine counter in the bath with a vessel sink and new custom tiled walk in shower. This condo is an end unit located on the third (top) floor of the building which gives you more privacy and a wonderful ocean breeze for those warm summer nights. You can enjoy both beautiful sunrises and sunsets from the covered porch as you watch the dolphins play.

There is a private boardwalk over the dunes right on to the beach. The Folly Fishing Pier is just steps away and you are only one block from downtown 'Funky Folly'. Walk to the many wonderful restaurants, bars and beach shopping. Also, downtown Charleston is only 12 miles away if you choose to venture off the beach.

Fantastically beautiful overlook of the ocean and pier right on the beach! We truly were able to watch dolphins playing in the the ocean with the first rays of the morning sun as well as fisher birds diving for their meals, right from our deck! Everything you need is just a short walk away: excellent restaurants, coffee, shopping, music and more. This is our second stay at Dolphin Watch, and there will definitely be more!

Didn’t expect the dog situation, no water pressure, 4 flights of stairs, shared thermostat, but all in all we had a great time. Luckily we had great neighbors and the host is the most wonderful person in the world. But we won’t be back.

This is an amazing location in Folly Beach and we will definitely be back! It is so close to all the restaraunts and shopping in town and the view of the beach, pier and ocean is amazing! It is right there off the balcony which has awesome views. We spent so much time out there just soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying the views. The beach is aslo fantastic and just steps away! The room has all your basic amenities and meal-prep items for making your own meals if needed, but there are so many fantastic retaurants within walking distance. The bed was comfortable and the furiture cozy. The bathroom shower is huge! My wife and I stayed for 3 nights and it was thouroughly relaxing and enjoyable. We will definitely be back for a longer stay.
