A perfect stay in paradise!

We had the most incredible time at the Pink Retreat in Folly Beach! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the comforts of a luxury getaway while still feeling cozy and welcoming.The location couldn’t be better—just steps from the beach and a short walk to local shops, restaurants, and the pier. We loved waking up to ocean views and spending evenings on the porch listening to the waves. The kitchen was fully stocked, making it easy to enjoy meals at home.Our hosts were responsive, kind, and thoughtful—they clearly put a lot of care into making sure guests have a five-star experience. We truly didn’t want to leave!If you’re thinking about visiting Folly Beach, Pink Retreat is the place to stay. We’re already dreaming about a return trip!A very special thank you to our fabulous hostesses!

Perfect

This place is understated, but had everything we needed for a perfect stay. You know a place is clean when even the baseboards are clean! The hosts were incredibly responsive when we noticed one of the bedroom doors was broken - they had a repair guy there to fix it within 2 hours! The location was perfect and the back porch was an amazing place to spend the evenings with a cocktail before dinner. Hopefully, we will be back!

Beautiful Beach Cottage with a stunning back porch view

We had 3 generations staying at the beach house for an end of summer family vacation. The kitchen was well appointed and made it great for cooking, which unfortunately we did more than we planned due to Tropical Storm Debby. The beach house is an older cozy cottage with lots of charm. However, it also has been updated with newer appliances and the bathrooms all have great showers with quick hot water etc. The layout has the bedrooms on the outside and the common area in the center which was perfect for family game time, meals and movie night. The view and access to the beach cannot be beat! Communication from the hosts was great. We would highly recommend it!

Not fancy just fabulous

House is older but sufficiently equipped. Loved the open floor plan. Bedrooms very comfortable and 2 had views of the ocean. Back porch overlooking the ocean was incredible. An oversize rope swing was my seat for a good part of the stay. I have not relaxed to that degree in a long time. I would definitely recommend the pink retreat.

Great retreat with young family

The Pink Retreat was a good option for our extended family. We had our 2 grandsons ages 6 weeks and 2 year old. The ocean front property has 2 gates to secure the walkway to the water and a wonderful bed swing on the porch which we used every day with the new born. My daughter has already ask to return next year.

Fantastic May24 Week at Pink Retreat

We had a super family vacation at the Pink Retreat while also visiting our daughter Brooke who works as a Charleston police officer. The house was perfect for 7 adults and 2 grandsons. The back deck was excellent to allow the boys enclosed play and also offering a wonderful ocean view. The host Cindy was so nice and accomodating when we were faced with a potential beach access dilemma due to unforeseen beach repllenishment activity. One of the best overall rentals we ever had!

Excellent stay!

This is an incredible place. We love Folly, and are now spoiled for life because we could not imagine staying anywhere else. The Pink Retreat is beautifully updated while keeping the old cottage charm, plus has the added bonus of being right on the water. Perfect for a family with 2 kids, a set of grandparents and an aunt & uncle. Great kitchen with excellent cookware, and hosts are fantastic. Will absolutely stay again!

Will definitely go back!

This house is perfect, we cannot wait to go back! Location is 10-15 minute walking to the Main Street, and 20 minutes drive into downtown Charleston. You cannot replace the beach location with anywhere else. Having our own walkway to the beach was priceless and safe for the kids. The owners were super nice, checkin and checkout was easy. The cleanliness was the best part. It’s an old southern house that is modernized and classy, and plenty big enough and spacious. Kitchen was well equipped. All of us had the best week and we cannot wait to go back to the Pink Retreat!

Picture perfect!

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Pink Retreat! It was the perfect, relaxing home away from home that our family needed. The house was perfect, beautifully decorated, and functional. Each larger bedroom having it's own personal bath was great and the large living and dining/kitchen area allowed us all to be together. The back porch and walkway leading to the beach was divine and our personal favorite, the large porch swing was perfect for morning tea watching the sun some up. We enjoyed playing and walking the beach. The latches on the gates made the safe feel safe for our young child. So close to town and to the park at the end of the street, and a quick drive into Charleston- the location couldn't be better. The whole team was great to communicate with, and were so quick with anything we needed. I hope to visit again someday!

Great House on the Beach

My family of 5 rented the house for a week during Christmas. We were very pleased and would visit again. Before we arrived there was a large rain storm that caused flooding around Charleston. The property manager reached out to us with pictures and assurances that everything was ok on the island. We very much appreciated the proactive contact and throughout the rental process the manager remained communicative. We have found over the years that you can rent a beach house and find that they are a little bit dirty. Sand under beds, amenities outside the house worn out, etc. This house was the exact opposite. Incredibly clean and well taken care of. Nice appliances a gas stove, etc. We cooked a lot during the trip and found the kitchen to be very will stocked. We brought a meat thermometer, which they didn't have, but otherwise there wasn't a single thing that we needed that wasn't available. Finally, the pictures on the website don't really do justice to the beach proximity of the house. Off the back deck is a long walkway over dunes that leads to a private stairway onto the beach. It was great. My whole family enjoyed walking up and down the beach and the easy access made it really convenient to get to and from the house. Great house and very well managed.

Weekend getaway

We rented the Pink Retreat for a weekend friend getaway. If you want a relaxed location with an amazing beach but still be close to all the happenings downtown, this is the perfect place! The house was exactly as advertised, very clean and comfortable with a great common area. The beach access was a huge boon. Beach chairs and toys are provided, but be sure to pack your own umbrella. We would return to the Pink Retreat in a heartbeat!

Heavenly Hideaway in Folly Beach

Our stay at this remarkable Folly Beach home was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning location, offering both seclusion and easy access to the local attractions. The home itself was a treasure, beautifully appointed, clean, and equipped with all the amenities one could hope for. The layout was perfect for our family, providing ample space to relax and unwind. The porch quickly became our favorite spot, even in the rain. The sound of the raindrops coupled with the breathtaking views provided an unexpectedly magical experience. As a family with a young child, we were particularly impressed by the child-friendly aspects of the home. Our little one had a ball exploring and playing on the porch, even during those rainy days. The hosts were accommodating, and ensured our stay was comfortable and trouble-free. In a nutshell, we were incredibly pleased with our stay. The house, the location, and the host all surpassed our expectations. We look forward to our return visit. For anyone looking for an unforgettable stay in Folly Beach, we cannot recommend this home enough.

Wonderful family beach house!

This was an ideal beach home for small children. The close proximity to the beach and a one level house made this the perfect beach house for a family with children. The extended front porch is gated off from the boardwalk, so our toddler grandchild could play outside without running to the beach! The home was very clean and nicely appointed with everything we needed. Beds were also very comfortable. The owners were quick to respond to our questions. We loved staying in an older home with charm and loved the updated bathrooms and appliances. We also loved our location because we had a playground a block away and could walk to town if we chose. We would definitely choose this home again!

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Campbell

Host profile image
We have called Charleston home for over 45 years! Folly has been a place where we have created many memories from dating to family gatherings over the years as well as sharing our love of Folly through great beachfront vacation homes.

Why they chose this property

This property was purchased with the intent of creating a vacation home with beach lovers in mind. The location is a little over half mile from Center Street, or about a 15 minute walk, where most of the restaurants, new fishing pier, coffee shops and beach shopping is located. This is the perfect vintage beach house with all the charm you would expect plus the cleanliness and updates that make it a great beachfront stay in Folly Beach! Open and airy floorplan makes it easy to enjoy everyone's company while inside and the porch has plenty of seating with the day bed swing and rocking chairs!

What makes this property unique

The Pink Retreat is designed with vacation guests in mind! Three of the bedrooms have their own private baths, one has a bathtub and two have showers! One shower can be shared without sacrificing privacy in the nearby bedroom. Relax on the back porch in our hanging daybed or rocking chairs, and soon, enjoy a refreshing swim in the brand-new pool, which is currently under construction and scheduled for completion in May. Grab a drink and take in the beautiful sunrises and sunsets with the sound of the waves rolling in.
