Solmate - A Beachfront Bungalow on Folly
“Soulmate - a person ideally suited to another as a close friend or romantic partner.” Oxford Dictionary
We call her “Solmate” because we believe she’s the perfect beach getaway for those families and friends looking to create wonderful, intimate, and forever memories while at Folly Beach. Situated at the far end of the island, on the quietest stretch of sand, you’ll enjoy fellowship and serenity while soaking in the gorgeous views of ocean and beach from this quaint, 4 bedroom, 2 bath, beach-front bungalow. Although she retains a lot of the original character of her 1970's construction, Solmate has been completely renovated for modern day comfort and style.
Beach living at Solmate is conveniently all on one floor. The master bedroom with its wonderful ocean views and private access to the back deck has a king bed while two other bedrooms have queen beds. The master shares a full bathroom with the second queen bedroom. The third bedroom has a queen bed as well and has a view of the front garden. There is also one larger bedroom with 2 full beds that works well for children or adults. The two full bathrooms each have a tub that makes bathing children easier. The kitchen is fully equipped including French press coffee maker as well as traditional drip style/Kcup combo, waffle maker, and Ninja blender. If you don’t feel like cooking, don’t worry, there are fabulous restaurants nearby for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Although Solmate is very child friendly with step stool in bathroom, booster seat, and pack n/play, please know that pets and smoking are not allowed. Also, out of respect for our neighbors and owners, no events are allowed that exceed the maximum occupancy of the home. Must be 25 years old or older to rent.
For your enjoyment there is an outdoor shower on the back deck, charcoal grill and plenty of private parking. Also provided are Turkish beach towels, beach chairs, plush bath towels and luxury bed linens (with cozy, down duvets in our colder months) throughout the home for your comfort.....please enjoy them.
The Folly Pier, completely replaced in 2023 with restaurant/bar, and Center Street with all the shops and restaurants are only a 20 minute walk down the beach or 5 minute golf cart ride. A 10 minute walk in the opposite direction up the beach lands you in the county park and provides for the most amazing sunsets in Charleston. No matter where you are on the beach, keep a look out for the dolphins....they are everywhere. And if you like a treasure hunt, there is no limit to the number of sharks’ teeth found in the sand.
We hope your time spent at Solmate is not only refreshing, but also rich with fellowship as it allows you to grow closer to the people you love the most. Please let us know how we can help you experience the best beach vacation ever.
If you have any questions after checking out the kind reviews from Solmate’s previous guests, please send us an email. Although Solmate has been a rental for nearly 15 years with over 150 5star reviews, she is now under new management, hence the limited reviews.

You need to stay here!
I can’t rave about this property enough. It was so clean upon arrival and looked even better in person than the listing! The rooms and bathrooms were very spacious and perfect for 10 people. Having a private entrance to the beach was incredible and the outdoor space on the deck was so nice. Would definitely stay here again! Rhiannon was also so responsive and accommodating.

Girls Hurricane Party
Had an amazing and relaxing stay with wonderful friends, view, and accommodations. Rhiannon offered great communication and was on top of checking with utilities during the short power outage just after the hurricane. She also assisted with a few of our silly questions prior to our stay with great recommendations as well. 12 out of 10 rating all the way around. Look forward to coming back!!

Solemate Chillin'
Beautiful location with an excellent interior layout and furnishings. Can view the ocean and surf sitting in the living room which is a big plus. Any questions we had were answered promptly by the owner. Plenty of beach equipment to keep the grandkids occupied. A overall very pleasant experience and highly recommend it.

Perfect stay
We booked this two days before our vacation due to a hurricane’s flooding of the grounds of our original rental. What a wonderful surprise to get a clean, modern home in the best location on Folly Beach island. Rhiannon couldn’t have been more communicative with the few questions I had during our stay. My family will stay there again. It was perfect!

Wonderful property!
Perfect beach house! We had a great time at Rhiannon’s home. Great location right on the beach, not far from all the restaurants and bars in Folly Beach. The house was clean and well stocked. A small problem at the beginning of the trip was addressed quickly and efficiently! Would definitely book here again!

Beautiful house on a beautiful beach
The house was so beautiful and clean. The view was amazing and we were all so happy to be able to walk right onto the beach! The kitchen had a surprising amount of gadgets to use which allowed us to make a family dinner one night including dessert using the kitchen aid. The location was perfect since it was close to the Folly Beach County Park and also just a 1.5 mile walk into town so people were able to easily do their own thing on Folly without really having to worry about transportation. Rhiannon was a great host and we would all stay here again for sure!!
