We had an excellent stay at Water’s Edge. The B&B was well kept, the breakfast was great, and the location is unbeatable! Unfortunately the hot tub now closes at 9pm and we didn’t get a chance to use it but it looked like a great set up. Staff was friendly and helpful. There are steep stairs to access the B&B and more stairs to access the rooms.

We have stayed at the Inn several times over the years, and it's always perfect. It's like coming home to warm slippers after a hard day at work. Or visiting your favorite family member, where the door is always open, and you're always welcome. The best part of this Inn is the genuine warmth of every staff member. The rooms are all different, and every little detail makes them perfectly unique. Comfy beds, fluffy pillows, and beautiful decor. The breakfasts are homemade and just like Mom used to make...what an excellent way to start your day on Folly! And, if you time it right, you can score some Folly Punch at happy hour nightly. Cannot say enough good things about this Inn...from attention to detail to a warm smile & perfect island breezes, this Inn has mastered the concept of true Southern Hospitality. Splurge. It's worth every penny!

Don't think twice about booking! The room was clean and the staff was extremely friendly. It is in a great location, lots of food choices nearby, and about a 10 minute walk to the pier. Loved the amenities to include the use of their bikes. I would not hesitate to book again.

The room was cleaned when we requested and the property/hot tub was very nice. There was only one staff member that made us feel a bit off. Sort of like we weren't supposed to be there. Everything else a fine.

Room was very clean, large, and well-appointed. Only nine rooms in this adult-only hotel that's with walking distance to many good casual restaurants. Bathroom ceiling light/fan was broken and no individual control of temperature. But great otherwise.

One of the best stays I've ever had anywhere. The staff and service were impeccable. Amazingly clean and welcoming. We met the other amazing guests with whom we had breakfast every morning. The room was perfect for two people with a spacious bathroom, open tile and glass shower, freestanding tub, shuttle to the beach, prepared breakfast and the list goes on. You have to be in good enough shape to make the steep staircases to your room but it's worth it. I almost hate to leave a review because I want to be sure the Inn is available the next time I go.

Our second time at Water's Edge. Lovely setting, friendly staff, and nicely appointed rooms. Unfortunately, this time around, they had to move us to a different room on the second night, which was odd and a little inconvenient in that second room lacked a balcony where we planned on sharing a picnic dinner. Otherwise, a very nice stay.
