Perfect house for multiple families staying together while also giving some privacy. Beautiful marsh view and cleanliness. Property manager was also quick to respond. One of our favorite houses we have vacationed at.

The Hidden Palm was a wonderful place to stay with great views of the marsh. It offered a reverse floorplan with most bedrooms on bottom floor along with a large covered porch and laundry area.The kitchen, dining, great room, an additional bedroom and awesome screen porch were on the second floor. Our teens enjoyed the game room and open deck on the third floor. The home was beautifully decorated as well. We liked the enclosed brick courtyard area for storing beach supplies. The property manager was available by phone or text, and very responsive to questions or requests.

What a wonderful vacation we had at The Hidden Palm on Fripp Island! The layout of the house was great, and the interior design was first class. We enjoyed spending time with cocktails on the upper deck, dinner on the screened-in porch overlooking the peaceful marsh, ping pong in the rec room upstairs, and plenty of golf cart rides to the beach and around the island. The Ocean Point golf course was in pristine condition, and was enjoyed by our guys. We had a great weekend and will definitely be back. I would highly recommend this beautiful home as a topnotch vacation getaway!

Great property with a great location. Easy to get anywhere on the island in only minutes with a golf cart. Definitely would rent again.
8.0 / 10.0
House is nice and resort location is great. Definitely recommend getting the amenity cards to use the pool and on-site restaurants. These were great additions for our family. The Rec room with ping pong table on 3rd floor was a huge hit and there were tons of games to entertain. Separate apartment is nice for privacy and was perfect for the grandparents, but is still a work in process and could use more furnishings. The golf cart at the house is a plus and needed for beach access - but might need a new battery. The battery died on our trip back from the pool and we had to push it home. The code to the lockbox didn’t work for us and the key pad to enter the house is not readable and does not work properly. Made it difficult to check-in at night. Recommend checking in while it’s still light and before 5:00. Our kids enjoyed touring the resort property and seeing the deer, gators, bald eagle and other wildlife. Bring mosquito repellent, bath tissue. Overall the house was nice, homey, cute decor, well stocked kitchen, beach towels, washer / dryer, dishwasher and plenty of towels. Lots of deck space and as advertised, the resort was great and location had fun things to do.

The house is very nice and in a great part of the island. We had elderly parents with is and the write up did not clearly state the living areas were located on the 2nd floor. It was alot of steps for them. The key pad at the front door didn't work so there was one house key for 10 people. View fron the back porch was beautiful!

Everything was great and we had a great time. No complaints on our end. Great place to stay for a weekend getaway.

The best thing about this property was the 3 porches (one screened) with a long marsh view. We spend much time on the porch listening to the nature around us. The house was perfectly clean but would benefit from some updating starting with the charcoal grill that was in its last days when we were there.
We would definitely stay there again.

Our group of 10 loved this space for our women's retreat. We had a lot of structured discussion time and had plenty of room in the den. The big table held all of us. The back porch was so peaceful. The different levels gave some space and separation when needed. It was a beautiful weekend!

We had a special time together at this home on Davis Love. The house is spacious enough for10 people & a baby including a nice screened in porch for reading, eating, talking & napping. We had a few issues that were resolved with a quick phone call to the owner--she took care of our problems & replied to our messages in a timely way. Thank you for providing a nice home for our 6th visit to Fripp Island!

We always enjoy our time on Fripp Island.
But, this house was not up to par in comparison with other homes we've rented. The home was not the cleanest, the carpets in the bedroom were filthy; I'm not sure what was going on with the kitchen floor, but there were a few self stick tiles put down, and they had come loose and were moving; the sofa was shredded (and cushions were turned to the wrong side), in hopes we wouldn't notice; the top sheets did not fit the beds; a couple of the mattress pads had blood stains on them. It was very inconvenient not having a common bathroom available on the main floor.
Being on the marsh I assumed there would be more bugs, but I didn't expect them to be in the house as well as outside. There are two of us that are very susceptible to bug bites and we were doctoring ourselves with bug spray and itch cream all week. The air filters in the hvac system hadn't been changed in months, maybe even longer and we struggled all week to keep the house cool. That could have been some of the bug problem. The outside shower is very basic with just a dribble of water coming out of the faucet. It would be nice to have outside water and hose to rinse the steps, etc to keep the sand out of the house a little easier. This could be a nice house if were properly taken care of.
The best thing about the house, and why I gave the 3 star overall review, was the large screened in back porch, but there were bugs there too.
Luckily, we spent most of our time at the beach or out on the golf carts that we rented. Fripp Island has the most beautiful beach I've ever seen and our time spent on the beach was wonderful.
4.0 / 10.0
The house served our family of twelve well. The location is great. We spent most of our time at the house on the screened porch on the back enjoying the view of the marsh. It was nice to have seating for the whole group for dinner but the living room was tight for hanging out. The beds were comfortable and the in-law suite was perfect for my father to have some quiet away from the grandkids. We really enjoyed having access to all the beach equipment since we aren't able to fly with any of it. Only wished that there had been a few more things to get you started - there was only one roll of toilet paper in each bathroom and one roll of paper towels and a tiny thing of dish detergent but no soap in any of the bathrooms to even wash your hands. The property agent was great to deal with and responded to requests quickly. Would recommend to others.

We were pleased with our vacation rental except upon arrival the garbage area was totally messed up & had to be cleaned up by us before we could take out any garbage.

I loved everything about our stay on Fripp Island! The house was beautifully laid out and conducive to visiting! We especially enjoyed sitting on the screened balcony and watching over the marsh with its birds and animals!

I'd highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway to Fripp Island. The house was comfortable, well-maintained, in a great location, with a phenomenal view of the marsh. We look forward to returning :)
