We only stayed one night but if I had known how amazing this place was, I would have opted to stay here and just have done Charleston as day trips!As soon as you arrive, you’re greeted with the sounds of summer playlist (Bob Marley, Beach Boys etc) Totally sets the scene.Super friendly and helpful staff. The room was beautiful and immaculate with a private, screened in balcony to enjoy the sultry summer nights of Folly. If we had stayed long term, the innkeepers supplied guests with beach towels, chairs and an umbrella (pretty sure about umbrellas ) plus a ride to and from the beach on their golf cart. Happy hour was cool (gotta try that Folly punch they offer) and breakfast was hot and homemade. HIGHLY recommend!! We will be back.❤️

Our stay at Water's Edge Inn at Folly Beach was the best hotel experience I have ever had, with fantastic service. A delicious complimentary homemade breakfast was offered daily between 8am-10am, with food quality surpassing that of some restaurants. The inn was ranked as having the best breakfast in bed in South Carolina and also offered daily free happy hour. Shuttle rides to the beach with umbrellas and beach chairs were provided, and the location was ideal, just a 5-minute walk to the beach and strip with bars and restaurants. I will definitely return in the future! Rating: 5/5 stars.

Tucked away off the main road yet easily accessible, this cozy retreat exemplified hospitality! Welcome drink, happy hour, endless cookies, full breakfast…the rooms are well maintained and super cleaned. Lots of stairs so pack light…and expected noise (toilet flushes, steps, etc) between floors given floor plan. Bikes and a golf cart ride are super convenient. Loved our time!

It was very well maintained. For an older property they had all the modern updates where needed but retained the charm of the age of the property. The staff was friendly and engaged. The screened in patio attached to your room was delightful and we spent a lot of time there. Loved the beach transportation with chairs, umbrella and towels. Did not use them there there were bikes to ride.

Beautiful property. Very convenient. Loved the rooms, our screened porch and our breakfasts. Very nice to have beach chairs available and a ride to the beach. Minor issues- Coffee could have been a bit stronger. Our ceiling fan was noisy and fixed after our first night. 2nd floor rooms a bit noisier as they are near lobby. We would stay again.

Water's Edge is a diamond in Folly with a fulsome breakfast. It's only a few blocks walk to the beach but also hidden on a side street away from traffic. I loved this place, especially my Atlantic room that had a jacuzzi tub and a view from the balcony of marshes. I slept like a baby and was made to feel very welcome by the staff. It's a classic B and B in every way. You can't beat it in Folly.

Checked in Sunday with Faye, she was wonderful. We were so impressed we were going to book another stay for October. On Tuesday my daughter came to spend the day with me and Claudia was so rude to her, I’m sorry but if I’m paying $300 a night for a room 3 blocks from the beach I should be able to have a guest for the day. We stayed until Thursday and Claudia didn’t speak to me again the rest of my stay, totally unprofessional. Claudia has cost Waters Edge a repeat customer, I won’t be back.

Folly Beach offers a very laid back atmosphere and pace. The Water's Edge Inn reflects that same tranquil feeling with some fun Hawaiian themes. The staff was so welcoming and accommodating. The breakfast and 4pm happy hour/snacks hit the spot. We also like being able to walk to most of the spots in Folly Beach easily from the Inn--hope to stay again.
