You will fall in love with Daufuskie Island on your first visit. It is a vacation like no other. The craziness of traffic, tourist and crowded beaches are not our idea of relaxing. Your Daufuskie Island vacation begins when you leave your vehicle on the mainland and board a ferry or private boat for a fun ride over to the Island where you can often see Dolphins. After a short 30-45 minute ride you are so relaxed and ready to kick back and truly enjoy all the nature, quiet beaches, long walks & golf cart rides.
Feel any stress in your life instantly go away with the soft breeze of the ocean air. Tour the island on your golf cart and enjoy the nature and peacefulness. You may see rare birds, alligators, deer, fox squirrels and more!
At a specific point on Daufuskie Island you can see Hilton Head, Savannah and Tybee Island, but those crowded beaches are in the distance as you enjoy a private beautiful beach. If you want to see more of the local living enjoy a meal at the Daufuskie Crab Company, at the Freeport Marina, D'Fuskie's Store Eatery & Bar, Daufuskie Island Distillery, Frye's Corner, Driftwood Diner, Corakko Beach Club or The Sportsman. Visit The Iron Fish, The Community Farm, The Daufuskie Island Distillery (Daufuskie Rum Company), Daufuskie Blues for indigo dying classes and beautiful merchandise, The Light House at Silver Dew Winery and other great shops and sights.
In addition to our beautiful beaches, the Corakko Beach Club (pool and grill) is open just down the avenue (seasonal).
There is so much to experience on Daufuskie, and we hope you will enjoy The Captain's Choice and all Daufuskie has to offer as much as we do!

Our family had a wonderful stay at The Captain’s Choice on Daufuskie Island! My wife Kathy, our daughters Carrie and Katy, and even our small dog Coco thoroughly enjoyed our vacation.From the start, Chuck and Terri were exceptional hosts. The Welcome Packet they provided was incredibly helpful and saved us a great deal of time planning our trip. Their communication before and during our stay was thoughtful, responsive, and informative.The villa itself was beautiful, spotless, comfortable, and very well maintained. The only thing competing with the beauty of the home was the amazing ocean view! We especially enjoyed relaxing on the screened porch and soaking in the peaceful island atmosphere.We also had excellent experiences with local services. Daufuskie Life handled our transportation from the county dock to the villa, and our driver Scott was friendly and professional. Holly with Explore Daufuskie provided our golf cart rental and delivered outstanding service as well.Everything about our stay exceeded expectations. Chuck and Terri clearly care about providing a first-class guest experience. We made wonderful family memories and would absolutely stay at The Captain’s Choice again. Highly recommended!

This was my 3rd time staying at The Captain's Choice. The villa is lovely. It is always clean, cozy and stocked with everything we need! Terri always communicates well. The check-in process is super easy. Daufuskie is such a special place. Cannot recommend the Island and The Captain's Choice enough!

Great island getaway property! Beautifully appointed decor. 2 bedroom ensuite condo. Each suite had a bath, mini frig, tons of storage. The king suite had a shower and jacuzzi tub. The suites were separated by a large kitchen, dining, living area with expansive views of the water. This layout provides nice privacy. The porch was also fabulous with comfortable furniture and the same spectacular views. Great for a family or 2 couples.
