About this villa rental

The guest who books the reservation must be 25 years or older and must be present for the length of the stay in the property. 338 Captain John Fripp Villa is the absolute best location for families on the island. This end unit villa is ocean view, steps to the beach, steps to the pool(used only by residents of the Captain John Fripp Villa complex), patio extends on to a large grassy lawn and the unit is private. The villa was recently renovated from top to bottom.   There are a total of 3 full bathrooms. Each bedroom has it's own full bath, and there is a full bath with tub on the first floor.. This is extremely rare in Phase 1 villas. Fripp Island boasts 2 championship golf courses ('100 Best Golf Resorts in North America'-by Links Magazine). Our Ocean Creek course was  renovated in 2013 with new paspalum turf, so thick and smooth it acts like tiny tees holding your ball at precisely the right height.  Come play the same turf the pros played at the PGA Championship. We have 3 and 1/2 miles of unspoiled and uncrowded wide beach.  8 clay tennis courts-lit for play when it's dark. Walk out the patio doors for play on the lawn, stroll on the beach, or a swim in the pool. Walk out the front door to the beach club which has coffee, ice cream, pizza, chicken, sandwiches, shopping, fitness center, business center, and other pools.  Walk across the street for tennis, or hop on the golf cart for a 5 minute trip to either of the championship golf courses. Club cards are available for additional purchase. They are needed for use of restaurants, golf, tennis, and pools other than our complex pool. Four seat golf cart is included in rental cost. (renter must agree to golf cart agreement before using cart) WiFi (Wireless Internet) You will NOT find a more updated villa with 3 BATHROOMS, with our private, prime location in all of the phase one units. (units that are in the 300's) Thanks for your consideration. Please NOTE that new security rules only allow 2 cars parked per day at this property! If you LOVE Hilton Head, but don't like the Hilton Head crowds, Fripp Island is your kind of place!

The unit was comfortable and clean. It is about time for a few updates though, i.e. couch and love seat needs either a good cleaning or new covers.

Loved the location of the property, the private patio as compared to the rest of the complex is very nice. The kitchen was extremely well stocked, washer and dryer a huge plus. Sheets, mattress pads and towels need to upgraded immediately, there were only two decent washcloths, the rest were literally rags. No biggie for us as we drove in and brought extras, which we left as a parting gift because we had such a great time in this very comfortable condo. Would definately stay again and the owner Joe was so very kind.

Our family of six stayed here, and loved it! This is our third rental at the Captain John Fripp Villas, and by far our favorite. Everything has been beautifully updated, and the extra bathroom upstairs was a bonus! The proximity to the beach and the pool can’t be beat! Also, the golf cart was so fast - our kids loved zooming around the island with us. We loved hosting family dinners here and swinging on the porch swing 😊 Don’t look any further, book this one!

This place is SO cool! Wonderful "little" place...but not so little. Has 3 FULL bathrooms. One on the first floor, and two on the second. You can see the ocean from the master bedroom balcony. You have two balconies and a back patio, just feet from the boardwalk to the beach! All the rooms had TVs with cable and the place is not only big enough for a family of 4, it was big enough to host dinner for 12 people...with room to spare! Also, note it may not say it in the description, but there is also a washer and dryer in the place. The beds were very comfortable too. Was like living at home...and the modern bathroom showers in each of the 2nd floor bathrooms are really nice. The included golf cart is perfect. The power to charge is conveniently placed right in the reserved parking spot. I would recommend only using the reserved spot for the golf cart. You dont need your automobile at all during your stay. I recommend parking it in one of the spots listed "300/400" and leaving it for your stay. All you need is the golf cart when you are on the island. You will need your car only if you want to go off the island for a Walmart trip or dinner off the island. Also, Joe is the most responsive host I have every had. I dont think my calls ever went to voicemail. He is always there to help and a really nice guy. We will 100% rent this place when we return to Fripp. Right on the beach, a private pool, and literally right next to the island ice cream shop, an adult pool and the place where you get your amenities cards. Best place to chill at the beach! Highly recommend!! Thank you Joe!

We loved everything about this villa - very clean and comfortable. Mr. Tonini was excellent in responding to my questions. The patio, swing, yard, and pool were excellent to have right there for the kids - and best of all the best stretch of Fripp beach was basically right off our backyard! We would return here again and again - just one warning that I didn’t see mentioned in other reviews - it is directly beside the Ocean Club (which is nice for getting ice cream), but on weekend nights the music was very loud - mostly in the kids room - the master wasn’t too bad. This didn’t hurt our time - thankfully the owner had thoughtfully left a nice sound machine in that room, and the kids slept through it. We had three or four nights with very loud music/partying, but they usually wrapped it up around 10. The only night it interfered with my husbands sleep was our last night (Friday night) they went until midnight. So just throwing that out there for families that may have sleeping issues or issues with loud sounds. Everything else about the villa itself and the location was terrific! Also the neighbors feed the deer so they are veeerrry friendly - which my kids loved even though we tried to abide by the no feeding rules. We had a terrific time. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay!
