Thank you!

This beautifully renovated 3/3 unit was perfect for our group of 8 friends. There were plenty of beds, baths and living space. Fripp Island is a favorite destination and this unit is in a convenient and beautiful part of the island. Communication with the the owner was excellent. It was a wonderful week and we unanimously agreed we'd happily return to this unit.

We just finished our stay on Fripp Island. The condo was beautifully decorated and very clean! Super convenient short walks to the beach and pools! Beautiful ocean views from the deck and from the living room. Was great for storm watching and night too! Tiffany was very attentive and quick to respond to any of our questions. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful family vacation with my 3 married children and our grandchildren. We had a bed for everyone and plenty of places to sit and relax without being crowded. The villa had everything we could think of to make our stay enjoyable. Having a golf cart included was fantastic. Daily golf cart rides were a hit with our grandchildren. We will definitely be back next year.

We spent 5 days in this condo and everything was perfect. There is enough space for everyone to not feel cluttered. The unit was extremely clean, enough seating to be comfortable. The rooms are perfect with the perfect amount of furniture in them, and the bathrooms were extremely clean and with all the needed products. We made Thanksgiving dinner, after using the golf cart to go around the island, and become familiar with the area. We didn't have any problems making dinner, everything we needed was readily available and we loved making breakfast with the beautiful view and light coming through the windows. The beach is a few steps away. And while we didn't have direct view of the water, we had the view from the deck, and the windows that surround the living and dining areas. The unit is beautifully decorated, so you know they intentionally put it together, not just threw some things in there, as we've found in other places. We had young adults in our party and they enjoyed the place as much as the adults. The island itself is beautiful and so peaceful. We loved to see the deer everywhere and noticed how so many homes have quirky sayings about being in Fripp, i.e. "no frippin way" or "it's fripping unbelievable", which let's me know the owners of fripp island units truly love this magical place. During our stay, we visited nearby Savannah and Charleston, but would have had plenty to do if we also stayed at Fripp, the whole time. The communication with the property manager was the best I've ever had. While we tried not to bother her, as it was a holiday weekend, we did have to reach out a few times. She responded immediately and with the best disposition. We will be returning. I hope this helps other families' decision making process as we are truly happy with our stay, and I acknowledge that I'm not the easiest when staying away from home. Many blessings for 2023.

Fantastic Beach Villa
My family and friends just returned from a 1-week stay at this Captain John Villa. The property is 100% as advertised. Here are our favorite things about this place: location (right on the ocean); floor plan (the upstairs space for 2 teenage boys was perfect and the wrap around windows on the first floor afford great ocean views); the deck is perfect for grilling and relaxing while taking in the ocean view; the wildlife (deer are everywhere and the fishing around the island is great); and lastly, Tiffany, the property owner (she was absolutely amazing before, during and after our stay!). My only constructive feedback would be to research the Fripp Island amenities a bit more before booking your trip to make sure what’s open and what’s not. All in all, this was a 5-star vacation for us. Thanks Tiffany!!

Family and Friends Spring Break getaway
Beautiful villa right on the beach! Loads of space for our HS senior and his 4 friends, our preteen and her friend, and us. The older ones loved having their own floor to themselves. Kitchen had everything I needed to cook for the week. Beach seemed to go on forever. Loved it!

Location was just perfect! Amazing views!
Thoroughly enjoyed our time! It was clean & decorated adorably. Linens were soft & we had plenty of bath towels. Had everything we needed. The golf cart was a huge bonus & made for such a fun experience. The porch was the best for morning coffee overlooking the ocean.

Wonderful view and beautiful villa!
We were in awe of the beauty and view of the ocean from this villa. The deer directly outside the window was such a fun experience. The villa had everything you could need and we will surely be back. Wonderful stay!

Great All Around!
This villa was wonderful for a weekend getaway with our (2 and 4) kids. The golf cart made riding and seeing deer so fun; the amenity card that gave us access to all pools, including the kids pool with the slide was loved by our little people; and the balcony + the proximity to the beach could not have been better. The only issue we had is we had to leave! This villa definitely made us fall in love with Fripp- we will be back!

Beautiful villa, fantastic location!
This newly renovated villa was very clean and had everything our family needed. The owner was super responsive to my inquiries. The location has fantastic views of the ocean and is just a short walk to the beach, which is so nice with kids! The included golf cart was perfect for evening rides to watch the sunset or check out the wildlife on Fripp! We will be back!
