From the moment you enter the giant doors of this custom, 3000+squarefoot home into the two-story foyer you will be transported into another world. Mediterranean-style architecture mixed with comfortable high-end furniture and appliances exceed all standards of holiday rentals.

This is a full-service rental. You just need to pack your personal belongs. Unlike most other rentals we supply all the rest at no extra cost to you. High speed internet and free long distance phone .Most of all you will feel pampered by the high-quality designer linens and towels as well as the quality soap products just like a five-star hotel.

This home is ideally situated four houses from the ocean with grassy path right in front of the house ,making the beach just 150 steps away. Best of all you are just one-and-one-half blocks to Center Street Folly with its quaint stores, coffee shops, ice-cream parlors, and numerous restaurants, so there is no need to take the car when casually stepping out at night or walking the pier.

The home consists of a formal living room , and large dining annd living areas off the kitchen amazing, state-of-the-art, "to die for" kitchen with tons of granite. With an abundance of local seafood and other fresh produce, you will be only too willing to try out the professional,stove, the double ovens as well as the dual convection/microwave. The large, side-by-side refrigerator will aide you in one-stop shopping. This whole area is tiled in Italian Travertine stone that is both beautiful and worry free. This area opens out to the full-furnished, screened loggia or porch where you will find yourself surrounded by tropical trees and the singing of birds mixed in with the sound of the ocean.

To the left of the foyer is a large suite/fourth bedroom with queen 4 poster-bed.Here there is a full bath as well as small kitchen area and T.V This has a door to the screened porch so this area is a beautiful unit within itself if someone wants more peace and quiet.

Upstairs there are 3 more bedrooms.The Master bedroom is huge and opulent having a king size bed and plenty of extra space .The spa like bathroom has Jacuzzi tub and a sperate shower. There are two further queen bedrooms upstairs sharing a Jack-and-Jill, beautifully tiled bathroom. The larger of these bedrooms has a great ocean view from the queen-size bed ideal for lazy days. There are TV'S .in 2 of these bedrooms ,one left without on request so Kids don't stay awake all night watching!

The most spectacular aspect of this home is the ocean-side deck, perfect for days you want to lounge and
sun without being at the beach, or for catching the cool night breezes and ocean sounds as you dine alfresco or gather with friends.

This home is for the discerning renter, a family or group who appreciate such luxury yet want the casual fun feel of Folly, mixed with the quick commute to Charleston, and all this for 1000s less similar luxury elsewhere. With all we have to offer, as well as making it available to owners of mature well-behaved dogs(at no extra cost), we have had 4 wonderful fully booked out years with lots of very happy guests, many of them repeat guests .Please check the availability calendar which we always keep up to date If we are unavailable we would love to have you visit another time.

Folly Beach is like no other place. Once the haunt of hippies and dropouts, it has retained its quaint beach-side atmosphere. When other communities were being developed out of existence and their personality, Folly remained unchanged. Now it is one of the most desired communities South Carolina as quietly over the past few years it has been discovered. This means all the more amenities for you while keeping all the charm.

Last year 3 new restaurants came to Folly ,This year there seems to be even more being built all great places to eat ,have fun .Who knows what will come next year.Folly is getting bettet by the minute and all our guests adore it there !

So what else to do:
* Walk the pier, view and photograph the lighthouse, walk beach, walk historic streets of Charleston . Dine in Folly or Charleston . There is too much to do or list look up our website for more ideas or photos

  • We had a great stay at Unleashed. Our grandson loved going upstairs on the balcony. It was perfect for our family and for our dogs. We enjoyed all the space and the beds were very comfortable.Close to beach, downtown and stores. Loved it.

  • What a wonderful family vacation we had in your lovely home and at Folly Beach. We loved cooking our meals in the well-appointed kitchen, relaxing on the terrace and porch, taking in the shops at Folly..... The house is so spacious and comfortable, and all the special touches made for a wonderful time together. We will return. Thanks!

  • We were spoiled with "Unleashed" the homeowner went to great links to provide luxury yet comfort in this spacious home. You will love the location of the home, a short walking distance to the beach, stores and restaurants. You can't go wrong renting this property.

  • We had an amazing time at your beautiful house! Pictures cannot do the house justice; when you walk in, you know that your vacation is going to relaxing and wonderful, even if you never leave the house. The view of the ocean from the upper deck was better than expected. Every morning waking up was like waking up on the beach because you can still hear the ocean waves crashing. Folly beach is the perfect size and has everything that you will need with Charleston only a ten minute drive over the bridge. We want to go back ASAP!!!

  • If you decide to stay at the Mediterranean villa on Folly Island you will be as pleased as we were. The villa is conveniently located a quick stroll to the beach and Center Street where cute shops and tasty restaurants are located. The villa itself is wonderfully accommodating, spacious enough for three, possibly four couples, or a large family gathering, including your dog. There's enough room to spread out and enjoy the patio, porch, living room and huge family kitchen, all tastefully appointed and fully equipped. If you buy fresh fish from Crosby's nearby, you'll have a fabulous gourmet kitchen to prepare it in. Everything is just as described, if anything it exceeded our expectations. Lee is dedicated to making your vacation as wonderful as possible. You'll be delighted!

  • House was great, everyone talked about how nice all weekend. Open spaces, decor, furnishings were all just wonderful. Roof deck was very popular Friday (warm sunshine), and some use Saturday morning. DVD is hooked up and works (one guy in group full tech-geek) TV has really good picture, watched ROLLING STONES live concert tape Saturday night after dinner. Surround sound was wonderful. The cooks LOVED kitchen, that range/oven/hood combo is to die for, had fresh seafood two (2) nights (local shop), fixed full spread breakfast every morning. We did eat out local first night, couple lunches, and short pub crawl Friday night, very friendly, good food, and good service. Weather turned out wonderfull, golf, walkers and had bicycles, toured around from park to light house and in between. Drive in basement was nice when unloading, then Sunday came with rain, was great when loading to leave. Take care of place we are planning to come back

  • What a great weekend to be at the beach and especially this house. We brought our dogs for their first trip to the beach. The house is ready for dogs and more than ready for humans. So many extras!! Great location with an easy walk to the beach or town. Never had to use our car. And I think we only used one-third of the house!! The owners are very attentive to every detail and then some. Highly recommend staying here!!

  • We absolutely loved the house. It is well kept and very spacious. The rate for December rental was very reasonable. We used the house for our honeymoon and it exceeded our needs as there were just two of us. It is close to the beach and very near downtown Charlestown (maybe 10 minutes). The upper porch has a view of the ocean and is connected to the master bedroom and very spacious, but it is also very private as this balcony is above most of the neighboring properties. Would recommend to anyone from a couple of two to a large family. We would love to come and stay here again.
    
    Homeowner Response:
    We would also love to have Ben and Carol back.It gives me great pride and pleasure to see so many repeat guests each year. Thanks for your kind comments. Good Luck together ,Leonie

  • We are originally from Charleston and have a lot of family still living in the area. Your home was the perfect place for us to gather, enjoy good food prepared in your amazing kitchen and spend time taking trips down memory lane. The upstairs patio was a gathering spot for the younger family members, while the older folks spent most of their time on the well-furnished porch. The amenities are fantastic, the beds extremely comfortable, and all the personal touches from scented hand soaps to ambient lighting to your thoughtful instructional notes, made our stay there such a memorable occasion. The convenient location to downtown Folly was perfect for quick runs to Berts for grocery items or a short walk to a local hangout for a beer. I hope to return soon!

  • Being retired, I've rented a number of houses on the North Carolina and South Carolina coast. This is by far the nicest house I've ever rented. This is a very large house so the five of us had plenty of space for our quiet time. The house is well appointed with quality linens and towels. The large kitchen has every convenience. If you are looking for a spacious and comfortable house that is only a couple of minutes walk from the beach, then I highly recommend this 5 star luxury home. Leonie, the owner, makes every attempt to see that the house is well taken care of. The connector 30 to Charleston makes an easy and fast trip into that charming town which abounds in excellent restaurants, ante-bellum houses, and many fine shops. My friends and I consider ourselves fortunate to have found this wonderful house where we intend to spend more time in the future.
