Oceanfront Beach House with Amazing Views, Private Beach Access, Sundeck, Yard & Screened Porches.
Welcome to Salt Sea, a serene oceanfront beach house on Folly Beach where the rhythm of the waves and endless Atlantic Ocean views set the tone for an unforgettable coastal escape. Tucked along one of the quietest stretches of Folly Beach, Salt Sea offers something rare — the feeling of having your own personal beach just steps from the house via your own private beach boardwalk. With direct beach access, the sand and surf are always just a few steps away — ideal for morning walks, afternoon swims or long days building sandcastles and collecting sharks' teeth & seashells. The home’s expansive sundeck offers panoramic ocean views and the perfect place to lounge in the sun while the home's two screened porches provide shaded spots to read, nap or enjoy dinner with the sea breeze drifting through.
Salt Sea was created for guests who want to escape the crowds and enjoy the peaceful side of Folly Beach. The atmosphere is calm, relaxed, and welcoming — perfect for reconnecting with loved ones, sharing meals, playing games and creating memories together. Here, days begin with coffee and sunrise over the water and end with salty breezes, starry skies and the soothing sound of the ocean. Designed for relaxation and connection, this inviting beach home blends comfortable coastal décor with open, light-filled spaces that make it easy to slow down and savor time together.
With multiple seating areas throughout the house, Salt Sea enables members of your group to spend time together and also have the option to relax on their own. Once you climb the exterior stairs from the parking level to the home, all the rooms of Salt Sea are on the same floor. There are ocean views from the kitchen, both dining areas, sun room, living room, primary suite and screened porch. This is the type of beach house and the kind of vacation where time slows down, laughter lingers, and the moments you share become the stories your family will talk about for years. Make your reservation today!

This lovely home sits beautifully in between two natural areas, assuring privacy and framing the stunning ocean view perfectly. Comfy furniture and multiple seating areas made it easy for our group to pursure differnent entertainment options. The well-appointed kitchen and outdoor grill were great for cooking!
Best place to stay! Clean, private, and great location. Easy drive into Charleston for all the activities & come back to relax on the quiet beach steps away from the house. The entire process was so easy and the family definitely wants to go back again next summer!
We couldn’t have been more pleased with the lovely home with room for our family and all the amenities for our comfort and the amazing privacy and access to the beach. We loved every minute of our stay and hope to come back! Thank you!
Peaceful and relaxing December stay at Salt Sea. We most enjoyed the sunroom, deck overlooking the ocean, privacy of the trees and well appointed kitchen. :

Girls Weekend.
This is a great place to stay for a girls trip or family trip.
Plenty of room for everyone and a beautiful spot. We loved the games and puzzles you had for us. Also. The kitchen is fully loaded to cook and all you need is food.
With so many other positive reviews, there's really nothing much to add. It's an amazing place right on the beach. Who can complain about that? Kitchen had every pot, pan, or gadget we could want. Plenty of towels and linens. Comfortable furnishings. We wanted for nothing and would most definitely stay at this property again. The setting can't be beat!
We loved the property & the instructions on everything were very clear. The house was clean & comfortable with a nice view of the beach. We loved that we could sit in the protected sun room to watch the surfers & dolphins. We had a very relaxed Thanksgiving together & look forward to doing it again next year.

Great beach front home
This house was THE BEST! It was absolutely homey and roomy. You could sit on the deck, screened in porches or a sun room and watch the beach. It has its own access to the beach and very quiet in spite of being on the beach. It is fully stocked and sleeps 10. 8 adults and 2 bunks for kids. Close to downtown Folly and The lighthouse. We will definitely be back here. Loved having our extended family vacation here. The owners were so easy to work with as well.
The outdoor area is the best. The screened in porches and open deck were wonderful. The oceanfront beach was beautiful. Overall the house is pretty great.

Amazing - Salt Sea on Folly Island
What a fantastic trip. The house was amazing with private beach access. We especially loved sitting on the deck, watching the waves and having tranquil family time. The house was spacious enough to accommodate our family of 5 with all the amenities we could need. This is a "must do" rental for anyone considering visiting the Charleston area. Highly recommend!
We had a fun-filled trip with family and our accommodations helped make it so. House was well supplied, beds were comfy, and there was easy access to beach for our elderly family members. Plenty of space to spread out and views were spectacular. Loved the deck and screened porches. Already looking ahead to next summer at Salt Sea 💛
Loved the location of this property, it was right on the beach, but surrounded by trees so very private. The accommodations were comfortable and kitchen was stocked with anything you could need. Amazing outdoor spaces, two screened in porches with windows and doors you can leave open to hear the ocean. We will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful experience staying at this location. Plenty of room for everyone, close to many things, and our favorite was the easy access to the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner at home if we wanted, but we were also fairly close to a lot of the restaurants on Folly and a short drive to get into Charleston. It was super easy to communicate with our hosts and didn't have any issues with our stay.
Loved Folly Island. Loved staying at this house. Private. On the beach. Great walks. Peace. Even body surfed on 10/19. Very well looked after.
Want to return.
We had the best week staying at Salt Sea to celebrate a 40th birthday! The house was even better than the photos - the primary suite bathroom has received a beautiful upgrade! We had a group of 8 adults, 2 children, and the house was a good fit. We loved drinking coffee on the porch every morning and looking for dolphins! Our favorite part was the beach access, and we appreciated that there were beach chairs and boogie boards available. Hosts were easy to communicate with, and were very helpful when we had some travel issues. Would absolutely love to stay here again!
We has a wonderful family time at Sat Sea. It is a really beautiful comfortable roomy house. I think it is really better than the pictures! We loved watching the surfers and ocean from the sun porch. The kitchen was really well stocked which was great because we cooked a lot. We really liked how private it felt because there are large trees and shrubs on both sides. It was different from most beach places because of that. I would definitely recommend this place and I would love to stay there again. Check in was also very easy. The hosts were extremely attentive.
We are 2 families that like to visit Folly once or twice a year. This was by far our favorite property! The deck, the short walk to the beach, and the longer distance to town were our favorite things. Being farther down the island meant that the beach wasn't as crowded and we could spread out as much as we wanted. Loved the outdoor shower for getting all the sand off before going into the house. The house itself was great! Lots of space for 10 people. The 2 screened in porches were awesome! Overall, our best stay in Folly!
The property was above and beyond! Just like the pictures and the location was perfect for the entire family - grandkids (, 4, 9 and 13 included). We loved the easy access to the beach or to uptown. Beach access being right beside this home was perfect and the kids enjoyed "walking thru the Jungle :)) Our 9 year old granddaughter didn't want to leave.....told her we would definitely be back! Highly recommend "Sand Sea".
