The advertisement of this efficiency room is way overboard, because the room is smaller than most hotel rooms and the "professional decorations" are comparable to Big Lots items. The bed is very uncomfortable. There is no view. Yes, the pool is on the other side of a big wood fence, but this is JUST a place to sleep and immediately get out of the room here. We very much enjoyed the island, but we would never stay in this tiny room again.

Just steps from the beach. We had a fantastic time. Super clean and nicely decorated. Everything you need for a beach get away vacation. Beach chairs in great condition. Kathy was very communicative. Fripp never disappoints. We will be back. Thank you!

We had a fun trip! There was some confusion with the golf cart, but we got that worked out. Need to get the code fixed for ice as the one we were given did not work.

Its clean, beautifully decorated & close to everything. The only thing i would change is the curtains. Theyre rather thin & seem see through.

The just worked with me on finding a larger place when our needs changed last minute. She went above and beyond to accommodate us. I highly recommend!

Beautifully designed space and has everything you need. Fantastic location on Fripp- right in the center of everything, yet super quiet. The property manager is easily accessible and very willing to help and answer any questions.
I highly recommend and hope to return.
The only negative is the parking situation - but it would not stop me from staying there again.

My daughter and I both enjoyed our stay in the condo. Kathy was a wonderful host who responded to all questions very quickly. The condo itself was very clean, the pools are easy to access with amenity cards, and there were plenty of extra directions provided in the messaging tab of vrbo once the condo was booked to make getting to the condo and checking in a breeze. Parking is tight and meant for smaller vehicles but there are additional spaces nearby. The mini-fridge had plenty of room to store sandwiches and extra snacks/drinks. WiFi is a little sluggish but it’s an island so that’s to be expected and we were able to watch a few movies when we were taking breaks from the beach! The beach is very close, clean, and feels very safe and uncrowded. We rented a golf cart for a day/night and the Fripp Island Resort staff were quick to answer any questions and facilitate the delivery and return of the cart. Fripp Island is now one of my favorite vacation destinations and I would absolutely recommend this condo and Kathy to anyone interested in visiting!

Good Day, the stay was great. Location was wonderful.
My only complaint would be that the radio stayed on at the pool overnight. I understand during the day however, it played 24 hours a day.
Thanks so much, Heather

The best Easter ever! Wonderful spring break, so many activities for the kids. Location was steps from the beach, fitness center, and dining options. We rented bikes to get to everything else. Cute deer visited us every evening and we loved walking next door for ice cream. Beautiful place!

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!

This location is perfect for the pools, markets, shopping, and access to the ocean. We will certainly be returning for an annual visit.

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 studio was super cute and clean! Host Kathy was absolutely responsive.

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.
5.0
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.

Fripp is just the best! Walked nightly to get ice cream
Grandkids loved the bunk beds

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!

Cute & efficient
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!
5.0
Great location, wonderfully decorated unit
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.
