“Remote and Exclusive, but no good coffee”

Most visitors seem to be retirees or families with younger children. The rooms are extremely clean and the services are wonderful. We went during spring break. Not all restaurants on the island are open. Within 30 minutes drive, only one restaurant was open. Kitchen is fully equipped though, so load your car with plenty of yummy food and groceries before you arrive! Cell phone coverage is spotty. If you are looking for a quiet vacation with not much to do other than golfing, swimming and sun bathing, this is perfect!

“home away from home...beautiful!”

we went for my sons graduations from the USMC, after his graduations we stayed one more night and it was great for him so relaxing and not a cramped hotel room.

“We didn't want to leave!”

The marsh views from our condo were great! We saw kayaks, boats, and wildlife (including deer) right outside our patio! The condo was nicely decorated, confortable and clean. The restaurants, pools, market, tennis courts, and other amenities met all our needs. The resort staff were always helpful and pleasant.

“Island Escape”

Rented a three bedroom private unit on the island. We rented the first week in April. Island was not very busy and with that, most of the restaurants/shops were not open. The golf courses were open for business but were not grown in yet. Resort did not offer discounted rates and should have. If you want privacy in early April, this is the place to go. Can't imagine how busy this island must be during season. Only one major two lane road on island so travel must be awful. Overall, a very pleasant place to take a break.

“Will go back very soon!!! Very quiet.”

The accomodations were a 3800 sq ft house, not a hotel. We were stunned at the beauty and reasonable price.

“The Prince of Tides”

This was such a fantastic property -- every morning we woke up, we felt as if we were on the movie set of The Prince of Tides. Beautiful, serene, peaceful, gorgeous ocean views. The "room" was a one bedroom, two bathroom small condo. Lots of room; nicely maintained. Just a great place.

“Perfect place to getaway”

We went to Fripp the week after Christmas and even though it was the coldest days they had all year ,we had an excellant time. We stayed in a 900 sq ft 1 bedroom Ocean front condo on the North side of the Island. While the room was just your typical beach theme it served our needs and we were very comfortable. There wasn't any beach on our side (although there was a pool), but we didnt mind driving a few minutes to one of the many beach access points. Once on the beach it was nice and clean and there were sand dollars, starfish and shells everywhere that were very beautiful. Another thing about the Island is it is covered with deer. At night we would drive off the Island and eat dinner, and coming back we would see no less than 20 deer every night. And these were BIG deer that werent afraid to be 5 feet away from you. We even saw them during the day while going to the beach. We saw dolphins in the ocean and lots of other wildlife. Loved going there and would def go back!

“Loved it, wish we had known oceanfront doesn't mean beachfront”

This is an awesome place for families to stay, but I wish that I had known the place I booked was not within walking distance to the beach, though it was oceanfront. We had to drive each time we went to the beach, and no restrooms at the beach (an issue with kids). But it was amazing and we can't wait to go back but will make sure our accomodations are closer to the beach. We saw dolphins twice, fed deer from our balcony, loved the uncrowded beach. We got locked out on our patio twice, so watch it if you have small children who are trained to shut doors no matter what! Luckily we were on the first floor, so we could jump the ten feet down to the ground for help. What is the deal with the amenity cards? Seems silly to me, I guess I don't understand the purpose. Also, make sure you have a good map, my husband took a taxi from Savannah airport to meet us and the driver got lost twice - $180 fare. All in all, can't wait to go again.

“Will most definately go back.”

Loved it. We stayed in a two bedroom/two bath house with two screened in porches and full kitchen. Easy access to all the amenities. The pools were very nice and the wildlife was fascinating. This is definately the place to take your family for a nice get-a-way. We'll definately be back.

“Wonderful family vacation!!”

Our lodging was a 2 bedroom/2 bath beach club villa with canal/marsh view located in the middle of the island. It was clean and updated with a screened in balcony. Only downside was 3rd floor location with no elevator. I would definitely stay in this location again. Call the resort in advance of arrival to reserve a golf cart which is the primary mode of transportation. You can use your car but it is much easier to find golf cart parking near the beach and pools, plus it keeps the car sand free. Call resort directly 3 days prior to arrival to get your unit number which you can view online. There are restaurants on Fripp which were good if you don't want to cook. Our visit was in July and we can't wait to go back.
