The house had everything that you need for your vacation. Biggest complaint I have is you can hear everyone around you when they are outside because you are so close to everyone else, and the parking situation is very small. Other than that the house was fantastic and it’s in a great location.

Propery is absolutely beautiful. We were so happy our experience.The house it a decent walk (20 minutes) from the beach, so it’s not quite as close as is represented in the listing. We made it work by grabbing a golf cart, however that didn’t help with our 9 month old neice.The property is thoughtfully stocked with beach towels and ameneties that make the experience extra special.Although there were a few small issues, the management company was quick to respond and resolve. We appreciated the attention to resolving issues quickly so that we could enjoy our vacation (which we did!).We can’t wait to come back!

Amazing! The house was pretty well equipped for a group that likes to cook. Great size for 8 adults and 5 littles. The pool in constant shade was a game-changers for us. Highly recommend renting the golf cart, but thought it was expensive. Eating out one night proven impossible for a group our size though.

Amazing pool!
We loved our stay at Tara Castle! The main living area was great for the family to be together. We appreciated the extra beach/pool towels.
The pool was cool despite the high temps and very refreshing.

Beautiful home close to Folly Beach!!!
This home was absolutely beautiful. The owners made sure there was everything a visitor could need and more! If you have younger children the pool was amazing, was equipped with plenty of toys and they went beyond for adults as well! The home is brand new, beautifully decorated and easy to move from floor to floor with the very cool elevator! We loved our stay and couldn’t recommend this wonderful home more highly! Homes are close together so privacy might be an issue for some but it wasn’t for us. We loved 57 Sandcastle! They even had sweet local gifts for us!!! Charming, thoughtful and beautiful!

Perfect family home for all ages
The pool was toasty warm for daily swimming even with cooler Spring Break weather (60-70s outside temp)! House is very clean, new and tastefully decorated. Big comfy beds. Plenty of beach and bath towels. Well stocked playroom, pool and garage to keep kids entertained. 2min drive/golf cart ride to the beach.

Family Trip
Our experience at this rental unit was fantastic. It catered perfectly to our needs as a large group, especially with children in tow. The kitchen boasted excellent amenities, ensuring convenience in meal preparation. The rooms and beds were exceptionally comfortable, guaranteeing a restful stay. The kids' room was thoughtfully equipped to keep them entertained throughout our visit. Furthermore, there was an abundance of pool and beach toys available, adding to the fun. The owner went above and beyond by providing carts and chairs for our beach outings, enhancing our overall experience. Definity a 5 star stay..
