Keywords: Penthouse Villa
Your island retreat is just steps from the beach, with panoramic ocean views from the living area, dining area, kitchen, both master bedrooms, the queen bedroom and both lofts. Enjoy 2600 square feet of upscale décor, beautiful hardwood floors, and ceramic tile bathrooms. Lounge in your king canopy bed and gaze at the ocean or enjoy the expansive front porch. You are in the PentHouse, it is pristine, as this second row property has only been available for rentals since August 2006. (PROPERTY ADDRESS:122 EAST ARCTIC AVE.)
Airy vaulted main room, architectural details, entirely new furnishings and wide ocean views allow you to be on the beach even when you are indoors. The entire top floor of this complex is yours. Make this getaway your next destination and park your car for the week! The fishing pier and quaint downtown shops and restaurants are only a block away. Stroll 1/2 block to the market for the morning paper or any necessities you may have left behind. You will be living on island time.
Folly Beach is like a miniature Key West that has escaped the hustle and bustle of progress. All things Charleston has to offer are just a short 15 minute drive away. Visit historic homes and plantations, sample fine Lowcountry cuisine, or perhaps a horse-drawn carriage ride will complete your vacation.

Panoramic Ocean Views - Luxury Island Retreat - 2 Masters!
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Other Folly Beach Properties
After falling in love with Folly Beach, we purchased a beach villa to share with family and friends. This little piece of heaven makes you feel like you're in Key West.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
The small, quaint beach town gives everyone a reason to relax and unwind. Within a block, pick up what you need at Bert's Market (which is never closed), visit the fishing pier, or one of the downtown restaurants. You can spend a week at our place and never have to drive your car.

Got Jolly in Folly

Pros: LOCATION, LOCATION, and LOCATION! The Penthouse is one of the best locations on Folly Beach. You can park your car and walk to the stores, seafood restaurants, music fun and famous pier. And you are just steps away from the beach. The Penthouse has a wonderful open floor plan. It was rejuvenating falling asleep listening to the sound of ocean waves, then waking to the sunrise over the ocean, from the large master suite. The spacious porch is the prefect spot for drinking your morning coffee or evening cocktails while watching life on the beach. We found everyone we encounter on Folly to be very friendly and helpful. Black Magic Café was our favorite spot for morning coffees, breakfast and Internet access. Bert's store (also just steps away) has a little of anything you may need. Cons: There are lots of steps to the top, and this would be a real issue for anyone with any kind of disability (breathing, physical, heart). We had some issues with the cleaning service and the properties up keep which we have addressed with the management company.
Recommended for:Age 55+, adventure seekers, sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

Our stay was 7/30 - 8/6. The location couldn't be better with the closeness of the beach and the restaurants/shops. While the amount of steps was expected, they could use some upkeep as some of the nails are starting to pop up. The porch was a perfect start and end to all our days but could use some more seating and some minor upkeep of the existing chairs. The four bedrooms are very nice but the back bedroom on right side of home had a very squeaky bed and was the only room not to have a TV. We felt the loft area was not a good place for sleeping as one can hear everything from doors shutting, microwave running, etc. echoing from the main level. Also, while we never ran out of hot water, we could not run two showers at the same time as the first one to start got the hot water. We did make use of the outside showers for rinsing off after returning from the beach. The house is very nice, but we felt that for the price, it should have provided a few more amenities such as kitchen towels, extra trash bags, toilet paper, etc. Overall, we had a very nice time and enjoyed our stay at the Penthouse.
Owner response:Thanks for your great review. We always advise guests that they should not try to sleep adults in the loft as there is no bathroom in the loft. Typically, the loft is used by teenagers in the group and they love having their own space! We have taken care of the pop-up nails you noted, thanks! We have a full-time, 24-hour a day property managment company with concierge services right on the island, literally 4 minutes away. They are always available to come out and oil a squeaky bed, check the thermostat on the water-heater, etc. but they can't help if they aren't informed of an issue. Starter rolls of toilet paper are provided for each bathroom, a starter roll of paper towels, kitchen garbage bag, and tablets for the dishwasher. This makes it so that guests don't have to run to the store right away. However, refills of toilet paper, paper towels, etc. once the starters run out are up to the guest. Guests are usually very impressed with what they are provided upon check in. Again, thanks for the 4 star review. It sounds like you guys really enjoyed your stay at the Penthouse. : )

We all plan a mother-daughter vacation every year. This is the second year for us to stay in this house. We love it here. Hopefully we’ll be back next year, therefore sharing your beautiful place.

Thank you so much for such a lovely spacious home. We were in Folly Beach for our daughter’s wedding. All of us were able to be together and even have room for the grandbabies too! We loved the fact we could walk to as many places. I think the large porch was our favorite. We had coffee out there in the morning and also ended out day there too. We will have great memories and be back too!
