Clean and tidy
Well appointed unit in very convenient location. Only drawback was the very loud music from the Tacoboy bar on the adjoining property that went on till 11 pm or later sending bass reverberations throughout unit. I stayed four nights and the music was on Friday and Saturday nights. Sunday and Monday nights were blissfully quiet.

Shanghai-La
Shanghai-La was as advertised. It was clean, quiet, and very nice for two people. The bathroom was quite small, but adequate. It was located near the beach and several restaurants. The beach was undergoing restoration. The project was ongoing 24/7, so although the beach was open the equipment was loud. The weather was nice and the island had very little damage from Halene.

Mother/daughter getaway
Condo was clean, super cute. Perfect for a beach getaway. Condo was also centrally located at Folly beach. You only needed to use car with traveling outside Folly beach. Lots to do, great restaurants all around, will definitely go back. The only drawback was no beach chairs and no small cooler to bring stuff to beach. Folly beach was super windy, sand everywhere, especially laying on towels. And it was super hot and humid out so our drinks got hot quickly.

Cute Place, & Great Location
This place was so cute and very clean! The beds were comfortable, and the condo had everything we needed. The location was amazing! We went to the beach in the morning and then came back to the condo for lunch and then back to the beach afterwards. So many restaurants and shops all within walking distance. I was nervous about the parking spot but our Hyundai Pallisade fit without a problem. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful space nina perfect location
We loved this beach condo. The space is airy and light. The decor is beautiful and unique. It was clean and lovely. The beds are super comfortable. You have everything you need. The private parking was convenient and you are steps away from the beach, pier and all the funky stores and restaurants that Folly has to off. You can even rent golf carts across the street to explore the island. I would highly recommend staying at Shanghai-la.

We couldn’t have asked for a better centralized location to stay in. It was the perfect size for us and had everything we would need (even if we didn’t use everything!) we loved being able to walk everywhere within minutes. Condo is adorable and very clean as well! Looking forward to coming back!

Spring Break in Folly
My husband and I visited at the end of march with our 5 year old. I love finding less busy areas to vacation. The location is great! Walking distance to the beach acess/pier. Great little coffee shop right downstairs. Although we read this condos description on vehicle size, we struggled with the extremely tight parking space. We rented a small SUV but had to try tonpark between a saburban and another large vehicle. Frusterating, but not the property owners fault. Taco boys is right next door with live music. My toddler loved going on the deck and listending right outside the condo. Small condo but comfortable beds. The only complain was the rugs do not feel good on feet so bring slippers! Everything else was great!

Great place!
My best friend and I stayed here for a long-weekend. We lived on Folly for years and pretty much know this entire island and let me say this place is SO cute and in the perfect location. Close to everything you’d want. Very clean and the hosts thought of everything you may need. They were also super responsive to any questions we had. My one suggestion would be bringing your own blankets if you’re able to. While the beds and comforters are super comfortable, the comforters are very thin and there was no extra blankets. Just having a throw on the couch would be nice. But it obviously wasn’t a big deal and I would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing Location!
The Shangri-La was exactly what we hoped for: clean, cozy and walking distance to EVERYTHING. Surrounded by great restaurants, cafes, shops and THE BEACH, it has anything you could need, all within steps of you leaving the front door. Management was quick to respond to everything and the neighborhood was safe and clean. The only issue was that Ubers were sometimes difficult to get but if you have a car, (or don't need to leave Folley Beach), this is the perfect place to stay!
