About this condo rental

Nestled in Folly Beach, this charming condo for $430 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Sunset 98, Mariner’s Cay is ideally situated in the southwest corner of the Mariner’s Cay compound giving guests a panoramic view of the Folly River as well as knockout sunsets from the wrap-around porch. Mariner’s Cay is a gated community of residents and renters, which offers guests not only a swimming pool and tennis courts but also is only minutes away from the beaches and town of Folly Beach either by car, golf cart, bicycle or walking. The privacy and lack of traffic is perfect for small children and teenagers to bike, trike, skateboard or just hang out. Since Sunset 98 is a corner unit, the view and the light upon entry is one of those ‘wow’ moments. With a southwestern exposure, the kitchen/dining/living area is totally open to the Folly River and marshes, including the occasional school of marlin. The next ‘wow’ moment comes at sunset when one must get a drink, hurry to the balcony and allow him/herself to be awed. As can be seen by the photos, the unit has a large, master bedroom opening onto the balcony; a twin bedroom off the rear balcony and a double bedroom in the southeast corner for those who just want to get away for a nap or a good book. The open living area has a newly installed flat screen HDTV on a wall pivot, ie, no messing around by the kids...DVD is also included. In addition, both the master and double bedrooms have flat screen HDTVs, and for those who can’t completely get away, wireless is available throughout the unit. Folly Beach is a six mile long barrier island, and the closest beach to historic Charleston, South Carolina (15 minutes on the Connector) where one can find outstanding cuisine, the performing arts and Civil War history. During summer season (May 23-Aug. 30), we rent by the week and our turnover day is Saturday. Check-in: 3:00 PM; Check-out: 10:00 AM Keywords: Mariners Cay and Raquet Club, gated community with pool and tennis courts, children friendly, last right turn before going over bridge into town of Folly Beach

Loved it! Wish we could go back once a month! The proximity to Folly Beach is perfect, the space between each bedroom was appreciated and the sunsets were unbeatable! We saw dolphins fishing and it was enjoyable to see the tides change the landscape from a low marsh with birds to water at a higher ground! We celebrated Thanksgiving here and only had to buy a big pan for basting the turkey—but they literally had everything else and we made a lot of side dishes! Fully stocked with cooking needs. If you are hot sleepers—be sure to bring light sleep clothes as only one bedroom has a ceiling fan. They have additional fans to plug in—just important to know from one warm sleeper to another. OTHERWISE, it’s PERFECT!

Had the best stay at Lois’s place. Everything was perfect. Check in was easy. It was just what I needed to relax and get away from “real life” for a few days. Loved the view and really enjoyed the pool. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

It was so peaceful to sit on the screened in porch and listen to the waves, and watch the birds and dolphins. The location was perfect. It was close to the busy beach town of Folly and an easy drive to downtown Charleston. Definitely would recommend. Communicating with host/manager was so easy and prompt.

We stayed in a different unit at Mariner's Cay in years past when visiting Folly Beach and while it was a nice space, we never quite felt at home. When we arrived at Lois's unit, we immediately felt welcomed and were in awe of the beautiful view. It was a great layout for myself, husband and our two little kids. We will most definitely be back!

The property was presented well. The porch views are amazing, especially at sunset. Saw dolphins multiple times during the week. The condo was clean, well stocked, very quiet, and comfortable. Within walking distance to Folly Island and close to excellent restaurants in James island. Highly recommend eating at Edison and staying at the condo.

The condo was great and had everything we needed. You can tell this is someone’s home and has lots of extra touches throughout. The view from the porch is a perfect way to start or end the day. The location is perfect, you are a short drive to the beach to unload all of your stuff or you can walk (about a 20 min walk). Lois and Susan were very easy to communicate with and responded very quickly the very few times we needed them. We hope to be back next year.

Perfect location. Minutes from folly beach, 15 minute drive to downtown Charleston. The condo was spacious with a spectacular view. Screened in porch was wonderful for taking in the sunset and watching dolphins. Condo could use some updating,otherwise would highly recommend. Just FYI there is a lot of remodeling taking place at Marina Cay not quite sure of completion date. Had to do a little navigating around construction vehicles. Definitely something to discuss with owner when booking. If planning on heading to beach bring or rent own chairs and beach towels. Owner doesn’t supply those items.

Best part of condo was screened in lanai. Loved having coffee & watching dolphins. Location to Folly Beach was great. Could have been a little cleaner, especially bathrooms. I was disappointed we couldn’t enjoy the pool. A lot of construction going on at Mariner’s Cay & wasn’t told about it or that the pool was closed. Should have been told that so we were prepared.

Lois's condo is in Mariner's Cay, at the foot of the bridge that leads to Folly Beach, roughly 3 mins. by car or 15 mins. on foot from the beach itself. It is ideally situated within the development, at the very back, right on the marsh. Even better, it is a corner unit, on the second floor. In other words, you literally could not be better situated to take in the stunning panorama of the marsh, the river, and a little inlet/creek just in front of the house. Take a glass of wine onto the deck at sunset and settle in for a couple of hours' worth of the greatest show on earth. We saw porpoises gliding along, smaller fish literally jumping up in the air, and lots of wonderful bird life (including a whole colony of egrets in the marsh, who flew inches away from the deck, one by one). An unexpected gift was that not only were the sunsets amazing, so were the sunrises! Lois's deck wraps around, so you can catch a small slice of the eastward view as well. You don't actually see the sun as it comes up but you can certainly see the sky as it is illuminated, with all the colors. And the marsh grass is nearly as pretty at sunrise as at sunset, with the light cast from the east; it goes from gold to bronze to bright green. At any time of day, but particularly at sunrise and sunset, this is a view that will make you fantasize about taking up painting (or maybe photography). It is inspiring and it is soul-healing. The condo itself is extremely attractive and comfortable. The dimensions of the living/dining/kitchen area are generous; you can really stretch out and never feel cramped. The furniture is big and comfy. And-- back to that view again-- the view is everywhere you look. Even when you are washing dishes or making your dinner, you are drinking in magnificence! Wow! The master bedroom has a super comfortable king-size bed, with an excellent mattress and good quality bedding... and a stunning view of the marsh and river! And direct access to the deck! Again, wow! The place was immaculately clean, really spotless. And, while not "fancy," everythingin the place is good quality. This is not one of those rentals furnished as cheaply as possible, with everything seeming like it's going to fall apart any minute. This is someone's home and it is intended for casual but gracious living. Lois is a very gracious person--courteous, personable and communicative. Frannie, her cleaner, was very helpful and had cleaned beautifully. Highly recommended! Wow!

We really enjoyed our stay at Lois’s place in Mariners Cay. The condo was as shown in the pictures and the sunset views from the balcony were amazing every night. The check in went smoothly with the information provided and Lois checked in after we arrived to make sure everything was going well. Great location within walking distance from downtown and the beach. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice place to stay in Folly Beach.

Such a wonderful condo! Our family enjoyed our visit very much. The views from the end/corner unit balcony were simply amazing. Not only did we enjoy watching the sunsets, dolphins & boats, but the various seabirds were mesmerizing! The pool was very nice. We appreciated the excellent communication from both the owner and the property manager. Thank you for a wonderful family vacation!

What an amazing property! The patio was amazing for dolphin watching and sunsets. We walked into town very easily. The pool is lovely as well. My only recommendation to future renters is to draw the master bedroom drapes at night. I was awakened at 3:28am by a boat with flood lights very close to the property. Completely lit up the room as it were daytime. I drew the drapes all following evenings.

Beautiful view of marsh/Folly River, end/corner unit; minimally decorated but we had all we needed. Check-in process is ok, as long as you are arriving before 8pm. We arrived around 9pm, and had some difficulty communicating with local contact, another resident/visitor ended up letting us in. There was some HOA construction going on that was loud and started early, 530 one morning, Lois said she was unaware of construction.
