nice place to stay with immediate access to restaurants and super short walk to the beach. Room was quiet and comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable.
I would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a simple condo in the PERFECT location. Comfortable beds and great hospitality. The one thing we wished we had was a washer and dryer.

I loved this little condo it was perfect for a small trip. Parking is very tough but luckily you do get one reserved space although very small. The place is just very conveniently located near everything the beach, shopping, and restaurants. Perfect place to stay!!
Very close to everything in "downtown" Folly Beach. Several nice restaurants and your typical beach/tourist shops. Very close to the beach.
The space was small but comfortable.
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!
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.

Great place to stay
My siblings and I took a vacation to Folly Beach and stayed at Shangri-La. It’s a perfect little condo and location was ideal. We walked everywhere, the beach, shopping, restaurants, because it’s so close to everything. They had beach gear we could use such as beach chairs and beach towels and has all the essentials for the stay. I loved this cute little condo and would recommend it to anyone who may be looking for a place that can fit 1-4 people.

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!

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.

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.

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.
This property was perfectly located in the heart of Folly Beach. We were steps away from great restaurants, shops, and the beach. We spent several days swimming and boogie boarding in the ocean. We broke up the beach days with several activities including sea turtle hatching at Edisto Island and the South Carolina Aquarium. The property was clean and had everything we needed. We had a dedicated parking spot which was great but it was sometimes pretty tight getting in and out due to the proximity of other vehicles. Other than parking, we couldn’t have been more pleased.
Everything was good, except for actual location. We are 2 older mature women. The steps were a little much for us, but ok. The smell of the garbage and restaurant grease was not good. Seeing numerous air conditioning units and dirty standing water was not wonderful.

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!
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!
