About this property

Romantic, Clean,Comfortable, and Private

Swedish Paradise is one of Folly's Best Rentals. This modern home is located at one of the narrowest points in the island. As you can see from our map, it is s short walk to the beach. Each bedroom has a balcony overlooking the marsh and river.

This house provides the quiet relaxation of the island's river side with easy access to the beach. Enjoy a quiet dinner on the screened back porch or sun bath on one of the second floor private open decks.

The designers of this house did an excellent job setting up the elegant house with clean lines and modern fixtures.

Well behaved house-broken, flea treated dogs are welcome with approval, but there is no fenced yard, so they would need to be walked on a leash. Keep in mind that dogs are not allowed on the beach between the hours of 10:00am-6:00pm from May 1st to September 30th.

Spacious house just a short walk to the beach

My group of 4 stayed here for a week and we very much enjoyed it! It was a short walk to the beach, had spacious bedrooms, good porch area, and a complete kitchen. The property is a bit older with some older fixtures and could be more deeply cleaned, but it had everything we needed and we enjoyed our stay!

Great location for walking to the beach

We stayed for two weeks at this beach house & had a great time. It’s close walking distance to some of the best surfing on the island. The back of the house is on the marsh, through the deck & one upstairs bedroom you have a nice view. The owner is super kind & helpful. The property was clean & we had no issues.

Perfect spot for our family

Stayed here for a week with our three children. Very quiet location with quick, walkable access to the beach. Spent many evenings relaxing on the back deck overlooking the marsh. If you are looking for the perfect mix of relaxation and access to fun, this is the place to stay!

Location, location, location!

What a wonderful month! My husband and I and our golden retriever stayed at Sarita’s beautiful home for the month of April and it was everything we had hoped it would be and more! The location is on the quiet end of Folly Beach and just two blocks from the beach. We woke up to the sounds of marsh birds every morning. The home is as seen in photos…very comfortable and had plenty of room for visiting grown kids and grand kids. Lots of steps at the property. Our 12 year old golden navigated them with some effort but if mobility is an issue it could be tough. Sarita was very communicative and easy to work with but honestly we had no concerns and no reason to reach out after our arrival. For me the best part of the house was the one minute walk to the beach! We will be back!

Serene and peaceful 10 days on Folly

Tucked away on a quiet street, a three minute walk to the beach with views of an expansive marsh and waterways to the west, this is a wonderful place to enjoy the natural beauty of Folly Island. My friend and I enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and shared meals on the screened porch to while listening to bird song, and watching for egrets, herons and the occasional pelican. Most evenings we would walk a short block to view the spectacular sunsets and then return to the property to watch the setting sun transform the marsh. The house is lovely and comfortable without being fussy. We didn't realize that Folly would be transformed by crowds over the Easter holidays, so we were especially glad to be in a quiet neighborhood a few miles from the traffic and crowds. The one challenge was arriving at night - like many houses on the island, the living space is on the second and third floor. The spiral steps in front made carrying up our suitcases and bags a little daunting. If we have the opportunity to return, I would plan to arrive during the day and carry bags up the back steps which are much easier to maneuver.

Great location and comfy home

My husband and our two dogs thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It’s a lovely neighborhood and a quick walk to the beach. It was great to have a screened in porch and a spacious kitchen. The kitchen could be a little more organized, but that’s a minor detail. The master bath could have been a little cleaner, mostly the sink, but that was easy to clean

Location Location Location

The photos do not do the house justice. Better than expected with everything needed for a beach vacation. Plenty of room to spread out. Ample parking. Kitchen was well stocked. Beach chairs and towels supplied and put to good use. The house is one block from the beach. A quiet low key part of Folly Beach. Not walking distance to restaurants which was fine with us. We went grocery shopping on the way in and spent the entire week at the beach. Should you be looking to dine out, “town” is a five minute drive. Parking is tight. There is a paid lot. Worth the money. The rear of the house has a marsh view. Breakfast on the screened in back porch was the perfect start to the day. If you are looking for a week at the beach, some time in downtown Charleston or a combination of activities, this house has the perfect location. I would highly recommend. One note, there is one king bed and two queens, along with sleeping space in the living room. Could be challenging for families with small children. No single beds or bunks. We were three adults, perfect fit.

Pleasurable beach spot

Perfect location. The hostess, Sarita, was welcoming and communicated directions and expectations clearly. We loved the space as soon as we walked in. Clean, tastefully decorated; well maintained and updated. Can’t beat the walk to the beach or sunset views over the marsh. Perfect Folly getaway. We plan to return!!

Wonderful Stay!!

We had an amazing stay at this house. The layout was perfect for a large family, a short walk to a quiet area of the beach. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The screened in porch was a comfortable place to end the day, very peaceful area of the island. Beautiful marsh view out the back. Overall a 10/10!!!

Folly beach stay

The property was very clean and spacious. We had a great time and the porches were great to relax on! The ONLY setback was the front stairs. They were a little tricky to navigate for my elderly parents, but we learned quickly! We had a great stay and would stay there again! The owner was very quick to respond to my messages and so friendly! Definitely 5star rating

Great location and host

Excellent location - 2 minute walk to 12th street beach access. Property as advertised. House is spacious- we were 4 adults and a cat. The three bedrooms gave everyone ample of space to everyone. Living area is comfortable. House was cleaned very well and host is extremely responsive. They are nice enough to send back wall charger left in the house. Only reason not to give 5 stars is that the upper floor is a bit dated.

Wonderful Folly Beach Home

Our three month stay in Folly Beach was a most relaxing and social time this winter. The home is just as pictured in the photos. It was comfortable and the main floor open concept met our needs for living space and entertaining. The bedrooms upstairs had their own master bathrooms. If anything was a little let down, it was the cleanliness. Some walls are scuffed, utensil and pan drawers were dirty, the carpets were not clean. However, when we asked Sarita to help us, she immediately had the carpets cleaned. She was an ideal property manager. The water heater broke and water cascaded into the first floor. Sarita had the plumbers out the next day and repairs were made. The home sits high and there are numerous steps to climb, from the street and up the stairs. This was not a problem for us, but might be. Not much of a yard, all dirt...but we didn't use it except in the backyard for our dog. the furniture, especially the beds, were comfortable. The home is a 2 and 1/2 minute walk to the beach. Ideal for getting the dog out for a long walk. Ideal for just sitting and reading while the ocean curled in. It would be nice to have some non-rusty chairs to take to the beach, but we bought our own. Having three patio/decks overlooking the marsh was a treat. We were there in the winter months so the daylight sunshine hours on the decks were limited. Folly Beach is a quaint town with lots of options for eating out. Also, the trip to Charleston is an easy 8 mile drive and Charleston has fantastic restaurants, local theater, and some good music lounges, like Forte. Overall, our three months sped by. The neighborhood was very walkable, only 1.5 miles to downtown Folly Beach. Lots of different streets to wander. The bikes made traveling to Folly Beach much easier. Loved the new Pier which opened while we were there. Sarita is an ideal host. Always responsive to our needs and was invested in making our extended stay comfortable. The kitchen could use some more equipment. We had our own coffee grinder and there were probably not enough glasses, cocktail, wine and drinking. A couple of lights need to be rewired and I would like to see some lights out back, especially for taking our dog out to do her thing. We couldn't have been more content and satisfied with the home, the management, and especially the location and definitely home to return next year for another extended stay. Thank you Sarita for taking care of us and meeting our needs. See you again.
