What guests say
7.9 / 10 · Good on Booking.com, from 527 guest reviews
Tides Folly Beach earns consistent praise for its unbeatable oceanfront position, friendly staff, and easy beach access, making it a solid choice for a coastal getaway. However, recurring frustrations around outdated rooms, a single non-air-conditioned elevator, missing in-room microwaves, and pricing that some feel outpaces the room quality keep it from standing out as exceptional value. Guests who prioritise location and staff warmth over modern amenities tend to leave most satisfied.
