Beautiful House
We had a wonderful mini vacation in Edisto. The house was beautiful and the location was great! After arriving we decided we would like to stay one more day and the host responded quickly to our request. We will definitely stay again.

Beach Bums
In general our stay was quite enjoyable. The beach and area can't be beat! The house accommodated our family well. The house is a bit worn, and needs some updates, and it was a busy place with yard work and AC maintenance that we weren't expecting to deal with. I do recommend this home for families.

Perfect beach house
We loved our stay at Beach Bums! It is a beautiful home with plenty of room for my parents, my sister, my nephews, and their families. Having the elevator was especially convenient for my aging parents. Heather was helpful and kept a check on things throughout the week. We felt blessed to be able to enjoy this beach house!

Great Thanksgiving Getaway
I have a tradition of booking a house at the beach the week of Thanksgiving to bring my family together. This house was perfect for us! It had plenty of room and all the necessities. The house is stocked with lots of cookware which was great for cooking our Thanksgiving meal. The host was very responsive and friendly to my questions. We loved the screened in porches since it rained a couple of days. I would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for our group!
Beautiful, comfortable home, was an excellent fit for our large group and in a great location. We had a wonderful stay. One minor note to be made to any future bookings: the house is a duplex and shares a wall with another house. Something to keep in mind should you be worried about volume coming from neighbors.

Beach Bums
The property was only a block from the beach and comfortably acccomodated the six women who all stayed at the house. We were told to bring our own sheets and bath towels, which everyone did. Future tenants should also be told to bring hand towels for the bath rooms and bath mats. The location was very nice, although it was too cold for the beach.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first and it was excellent! Only recommendation would be to provide a list of all of this specific house’s supplies and an inventory ahead of time. It would not only help the vacationers in packing but it would Hale’s when packing up to leave! Overall? Would return to this location again as it was roomy, stocked adequately and quiet!

Lovely house But be Prepared with Supplies
The house is even nicer than the photos, and it was a great fit for our family with four adults and three children. It's a relatively easy walk to the beach. The property owner was a pleasure to work with a suggestion a wonderful spot to visit. Just be aware that 1) dining and entertainment options are very limited in Edisto, and 2) you'll not only need to bring towels and linens and bath mats--for our six day stay, we wound up needing to buy our own toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, and dish detergent. We've stayed in VRBOs all over the world, and we've never been expected to provide so many basics. Which is absolutely fine, as long as you understand the expectations ahead of time.

Great House
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved this house. Very comfortable and in great "neighborhood" Overall we were happy with the rental but the location was not the best as far as beach goes. We have two small children and the tide was so strong and so scary that we biked up the beach in order to get to a calmer area. Now that I know which side of the beach is best I know where to stay. House was great though!

Thanksgiving at Edisto
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Duplex was ok but needed deep cleaning. Renters in attached unit had a dog that they would let out on porch and dog constantly barked. We tried to get it to stop barking but they were evidently oblivious to situation that was very irritating. I believe unit has a "no pets" policy.

Grad school celebration
Property was ok but needs some deep cleaning. Large bath off upstairs master but other 2 baths small; toilet seats need replacing. Main complaint is unit next door (this is a duplex) was rented and they had a dog that would bark constantly when we were on porch and also could hear in house with windows and doors closed. It is stated NO PETS in ad on VRBO for both duplexes, although not sure the same rental agency handles both units.

Nice house just sort of dirty
The house is beautiful and in a great area. Very quiet and a short walk to the beach. The owner, Heather was nice and was easy to talk to and work with. Check in was simple as well. My only complaint is that the property was dirty. We received a message at noon the day of arrival stating it was ready for check in. Upon arrival the kitchen was dirty, crumbs and stuck on residue on the stove and counters, onion skins on the pantry shelves, all baseboards and woodwork were caked in dust, the master bathtub had dead gnats in it, master shower had hair in it, the master toilet had a literal poop stain in the bowl, and the hardwood floors had all of our feet black within an hour. I contacted Heather within 20 mins of check in with our concerns and she offered to send a cleaner back out the following morning which was the earliest time available. I accepted. I ended up cleaning up the master bath so we could even unpack and use it, not what I wanted to do upon check in and driving seven hours with two kids under 4. So first impression was bad and I was very unhappy. Heather was very compassionate to the situation. The cleaners came on time and the master looked better but not still 100% and the floors still made our feet black. We ended up just wearing our shoes inside the whole week, and we don’t like to wear shoes in the house because it’s gross.

We cherish time on vacation with our children and grandchildren. One of our daughters and her family were unable to attend this year, or we would love to stay here again. With the addition of her family, Beach Bums would not house us all. Thank you for a great week in Edisto!!!

Great experience and affordable
This property was very clean and well stocked. It was excellent being right on the bike trail and the beach was not a far walk if you don't mind about a 1/4+ mile walk. We really did not find anything missing that we needed and had a pleasant stay. I would be aware that it is a duplex and that you could have loud neighbors as we did. Past guests obviously did not clean the grill as the property manager has clearly asked and a couple of our party almost got badly burned so definitely check the grill before using. Overall though this was a great property that I would return to.

Great location
This was our second vacation on Edisto Island. The first was March 2020 and we stayed at a wyndham property was nice. This house is at a halfway point of the Island which was great. The elevator was certainly a plus for our luggage and groceries. Loved the kitchen/livingroom. The home was clean and the owners quick to respond with answering questions and such. We rented the 6 seater golf cart and bikes. Love Edisto

Great vacay at Edisto
Beach Bums was exactly as advertised. There were a few blips along the way, that couldn’t be planned or helped, but the owner/prop manager was quick to address issues and made things right even though they really didn’t have to. You won’t be disappointed w this rental. The elevator to carry up your load is amazing!
