Family Vacation

The Blue Crab was perfect for our family vacation to Folly Beach. The house is located w/in easy walking distance to the beach AND two blocks from downtown, making it super easy to walk to dinner or get ice cream. The house was very clean and well furnished. We would definitely consider staying there again should we vacation in Folly again.

Wonderful Stay!

Our family had a wonderful stay on Folly Beach! The house was beautifully decorated. We had plenty of space for everyone with all of the bedrooms and bathrooms. We especially loved the hang out space under the house where we watched football games and enjoyed the hot tub. The location was perfect and we loved being able to walk to the beach, Bert’s Market, restaurants, and shops! We really hope to stay here again!

A True Gem

This bright airy space was immediately welcoming. Our stay was perfect! We were a family of 6 that was able to spread out across 4 bedrooms. The home had all that was needed for cooking and entertaining. The outdoor space made for the perfect family meeting spot complete with a hot tub that worked perfectly.A block or 2 from the beach, shops and restaurants rounded out the amazing convenience factor of our stay. We WILL be back!

We enjoyed the visit

The house was in a central but at times loud location. The team at My Ocean Rental did a great job responding to text messages and even got us a new coffee machine when ours was not working. The hot tub and grill are two great features.

Beautiful Beach House

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house is within a short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. It was clean and spacious. We especially enjoyed spending our afternoons in the outdoor space under the house. There is a market within a block from the house that had a lot of items we needed as well. We had a great time here.

A Perfect House for the Beach

I was so pleased with this property. The location was so convenient to the beach and the main commercial area. The furnishings were first rate and everything was geared to our comfort from the well stocked kitchen to even the mattresses and bedding. I would highly recommend this property. We loved the fully screened in porch that our 2 year old could safely play in and enjoy the fresh air. If you book it you will not be disappointed. The only negative was the need for towel bars in the bathrooms but it would not keep us from staying there again.

Clean and Convenient in Folly

Property was very clean and bright, beds were all comfortable, bathrooms were spacious. Kitchen appliances were immaculate, and kitchen was well stocked with pretty much everything you would need, in very good condition. Nothing *weird* about this place, as you can sometimes find in vacation rentals. No dirty corners, no strange smells, no janky kitchen supplies that were obviously too tired to keep at home so the owner stuck them in their rental. Lots of stairs, and it is a duplex, but sound from the other unit wasn’t bad. Only a block from the main street in Folly, and Ashley St is a busy road, but the noise ordinance in town means you’re not up all night listening to the party two doors down. If only someone would tell the birds that are up at 6:00am!
