The Fripp Ship and Mango stores are fun to go into for your perfect souvenir.

This was the perfect place to stay for my son‘s golf tournament on island. If was clean and a great location. My only complaint, if I had to have one, would be that there was no shampoo in the unit and no ice on site as listed. We would stay here again.

This efficiency room was perfect for what we needed. We were looking for uncomplicated, close to the ocean. The room was clean, first floor, pet friendly, and the walkway to the beach was just around the corner. It couldn't have been any simpler.

This was our first time on Fripp Island and it was a wonderful stay. The property was exactly how it was listed and the owner was wonderful to communicate with. This was perfect for our family of three (the bunk beds are great for multiple kids). We are already planning to book again next summer! Thank you for a fabulous stay!

Newly renovated and mere steps from pool, beach club, ocean, tennis/pickle ball, or bike path. I like that this is a first floor unit - no steps. Owner was very responsive and checked in during our stay to make sure all was in order. We visited in February so very quiet in the neighborhood before the vacation season gets to full swing. Just how we like it! Long walks on the beach and time to read.

The world class beach is a short and easy walk away. We had a great time! Our 2 adult children opted to stay elsewhere - but would be perfect for young family.

This property was decent. It was clean but did smell very musty when we entered. The bathtub has some issues (a big crack in it). It was close to the beach and pool which was good. For off-season (mid-October), I felt that the price was exorbitant for this property. We were there for a wedding and only needed one room and were shocked at the high prices for a tiny motel-like efficiency. I would have been okay with it if the price was half as much, although that would have even been too high.

We loved this incredibly clean studio and NO STAIRS! One of our favorite experiences on Fripp Island. Kathy was so welcoming and a lovely attentive hostess. Incredibly fast response time too! Well stocked studio with extra paper products, garbage can liners, soaps, and the added special touches of coffee supplies and even K-cups were left for us. Great location being next to the restaurants, pools and the beach. We loved the comfortable King bed with the most comfortable pillows and beach towels. We felt very welcome and are looking forward to our next vacation here.

We enjoyed our condo very much! The check-in process was almost flawless, but quickly remedied. In Our condo, the rug is in bad need of replacing and had a huge stain right by the side of the bed, along with the entire rug looking dingy. Also the bathtub bottom was cracked and leaking below the tub, and had some patchwork done to it. These were our only real drawbacks to the appearance of the condo. Besides that, cleanliness was excellent. The neighborhood was friendly and we were close to the beach, but not on the beach, but we were poolside as described. In order to eat on the island at any of the restaurants we were required to purchase cards for entry. These cards were also necessary to enjoy any of the other amenities on the island, so that is something to take into account, as the closest town is quite a ways away. We were there mostly for the beach and the serenity and enjoyed our stay which was quite pet friendly, and the friendliness of the local deer was quite exciting! Overall we enjoyed our trip very much and the condo as well! We would gladly return in the future.

If you are looking for an early check-in or late check out… this may not be your place or planning a head and asking right when you book might have been better, but the location was great! Very clean! Would stay again! No complaints.

It was so nice to stay so close to EVERYTHING!
It was cozy and had everything we needed. The kitchen was efficient - we were able to cook up some awesome seafood dinner a few nights! Kathy was really nice and responded to our messages and questions in a very timely manner. A great place to taste the best of Fripp!

The king size bed was so comfy! The kitchen had everything we needed. I took my crock pot & here they even had one of those! The keurig is a duo. The kitchen is a compacted area, you just have to make it work. Which we did.
This condo sits by the main Clubhouse so you can walk to the beach, pool & food court.
The downside is outlets. I'm sure the building was built before cell phones & tablets. Another downside is parking. If you drive an SUV, good luck. There's also no golf cart parking at the building & no way to charge one so you'll need a gas powered cart. Other than those two issues we had a fabulous stay!

Beautiful rental in a perfect location. It was a great size for two of us and would have fit two kids as well. We loved our stay and will definitely rent this property when we return.
I recommend adding the amenity cards for a small fee to allow you to use the pools and restaurants. It was a little challenging to find the property as we didn't see signs from the street for it, so pay close attention to the instructions from the management company.

Great little beachside getaway
We really enjoyed the space for our overflow guests this weekend. The suite was compact but packed with everything you need and more. Tastefully decorated, comfy beds and location….the pool/beach club and beach right outside your door. Thank you for hosting us, we will be back for sure.

The majority of the room was recently renovated/modernized which was nice - kitchenette is still outdated. There was a board underneath the bunk beds used for storage that was not secured and it ended up swinging open into the back of my friends leg (painful). That needs to be fixed soonest. Also, we were supplied a half of roll of toliet paper for a 3 day stay. No extra rolls provided in the room. You must do better.

My sons 10 and 12, our bulldog and I stayed in this property for a week over spring break and it was great. My sons and enjoyed having their technology time on the bunks when we weren’t out and enjoying the beach or pool. It is small but had everything we needed to enjoy our time. Location was great - so close to the beach and though the pool wasn’t opened out our front door we enjoyed the heated pool. Parking is a little challenging as there are only a few places to park in front on the building but we were able to park across the street by the tennis courts. Kathy was great to work with and always very attentive to my questions. We plan to come back in the future. A blast was had by all!
