The staff was accommodating and friendly. The location is unbeatable for the area and the hotel itself is nice. Only a couple of small issues but not deal breakers. The balcony’s are too small for tables and chairs and the service at the restaurant was slow due to being understaffed I’m guessing. Overall probably the best place to stay on Folly Beach.

The staff was lovely. When we found the bed saggy, the staff helped us make it firmer. The beach was long & fun to walk but the ocean was hard to swim in. It was shallow way out and the waves were rough. We were quite disappointed by the hotel restaurant. The meals were not only bland, they bothered our stomachs. Luckily there were lots of other restaurants within walking distance.

The staff was amazing, every single one was so friendly and helpful, addressed any request immediately! The coffee shop was great, and the restaurant was wonderful. My only disappointment was that you had to purchase a chair on the beach, I realize that the chairs were managed by another company. It would be nice if there could be so sort of collaboration with the hotel for guest. Otherwise, it is a great place to stay!

Terrific long weekend stay at the Tides @ Folly Beach! We played in the ocean and swam in the pool. We ate poolside and had dinner onsite at Blu. We have made this or base of operations while visiting Charleston a couple times. The staff is attentive and friendly - that has been consistent over our trips the past couple years. We will stay there again.

Staff outside and front desk were great. The place needs a total renovation and management to train the staff. The room cleaning staff was not very willing to do their work. No English, didn't even know to take the tips we left every day. Then our 4 year old decided to do some cleaning and.....idk what she got from under the bed but it was nasty. For a cracksmoking hotel ok but oceanfront and the dollars they charged nope never again

We just spent three nights at this property. The entire staff did a great job of making our stay more enjoyable. If we needed anything it was taken care of immediately! We appreciated the fact that everything was a short walk to access. We stayed Wednesday thru Saturday. Wednesday they were hosting a surfing experience for autistic children , the property was very busy but the staff handled it well. Thursday was a quiet day on the property but by Friday you could tell that things were ramping up for the weekend.If you want quiet and relaxation, I recommend staying Sunday-Thursday, weekends have a party atmosphere . We had appetizers and drinks at Blu on Friday night. We got right in without reservations but I would recommend reservations! Service was great and food was good. The hotel is a former Holiday Inn , great location right on the beach with all rooms having ocean views. The first floor has been updated and very nice, the rooms have had some updates and are satisfactory but the bathrooms could use a complete redo. It’s clean , just needs updating! We had issues with a loud air conditioner in our room and they immediately checked it out and moved us to a different room. We ran into a problem with our phone not working and it was taken care of in less than 10 minutes. You can’t beat the location, with bars and restaurants located at the property and right across the street. There are many choices in a four block area. Loved the laid back vibe of Folly Beach !
