The iguana - offbeat meets casual

What better way to spend time at Folly than staying in an updated, classic family beach house within a very short walk to everything Folly has to offer. The Iguana is two blocks to the beach and just a block away from all the shops and restaurants on Center Street – put your flip flops on and you’re ready to go.

The Iguana accommodates six guests comfortably with three generously sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. The open floor plan, large screened front porch and back deck all provide lots of space to relax together. After enjoying the sun of the beach, grill out in the expansive shady back yard where there’s an outdoor shower for rinsing off, table and chairs for six, and a hammock for naps.

The house is kept immaculately clean, the kitchen is fully equipped with two fridges, there’s a full sized washer and dryer, all quality linens are provided, and beach gear available for guests includes chairs, a small cooler, and rolling cart.

The owners have gone the extra mile to keep the original 1950’s feel of The Iguana while modernizing the house for the best of both worlds – comfort and convenience with the authentic experience of a true beach house at Folly.

The Casita Azul and Casita Amarillo are two cottages on the far side of the property that are also available from another owner. Rent all three places and bring the entire extended family!

For rates and details on staying at Casita Azul go to VRBO listing number 675863.
For rates and details on staying at Casita Amarillo go to VRBO listing number 678253.

Please note: The Iguana is set up for families to enjoy time together rather than for events, parties, or a place for a group get-together. We're happy to welcome your pet to come and enjoy your beach vacation with with manager's approval. Please provide info in your inquiry on type of dog you would like to bring.

Classic Cottage with fun decor
Although the pictures are dated, the cottage was clean and the owner was very responsive and helpful. Located a block off the main strip and behind the fire station, it’s not the quietest place but not loud either. It’s also fun to be able to walk and get to the great/unique local restaurants and shops so quickly. Beach access was also good and a short walk. If you want a cool old-school beach cottage that is close to the action and the beach, this place is for you. If you want secluded and modern, probably not. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and appreciated The Iguana!

Perfect girls weekend get away!
The house is a super cute beachy atmosphere that has everything you need to hang out comfortably with a bonus of the perfect location for ANYTHING you will do on Folly Beach. Tim made everything easy and quickly answered ANY questions we had. All 3 of us girls (and one was a fussy personality) absolutely LOVED this house and would highly recommend it. If we come back to Folly Beach, this will be where we stay for sure! P.S. It was wonderful to have beach chairs we could use. That was a bonus!

Perfect location
We got in late at night and our young adult kids were excited to find Center Street still awake! House was easy to get into and very clean (not to mention cool in the middle of July). It is a prime spot for the beach and the main street, we never had to move our car. Tim was super responsive and helpful whenever we had a question. I am usually ready to get home by the end of the week, this was the first time i was sad to go. The house was really comfortable and had everything we needed and then some. They truly thought of everything. Can't wait to go back again!
