If you like having to do your own pest control, this place is for you. We trapped 2 sizable mice and had to dispose of them ourselves. The property manager could’ve given two flips about us. Not helpful at all. The place wasn’t very clean and was covered in dog hair. The kitchen was basic so bring what you need. The sliding door to the patio was tied in with string. For the money you pay for a “resort” experience, this wasn’t it. I’m usually a very fair person and try to give the benefit of the doubt, but I can’t overlook basic things when I spend a lot of hard earned money to get away from work. I’d love to have half my money back but I’m sure that’s a lost cause at this point.

We had a great time staying here. It was centrally located on the island! We walked to a ton of places and had a blast! Thank you so much for sharing your home!

We left early due to the uncomfortableness in the large amount of Black Mold in the main bathroom.

The main floor was well decorated . The location to the beach was great.
However it lacked things that one assumes a villa would have; grill, hair dryer,a hose outside to wash feet off.
The upstairs portable air conditioner had filthy filters and didn’t work one day so we called the PM and she got someone to fix it. The capper was the two rats in the kitchen. We don’t live like that in our home and we certainly weren’t going to on vacation. The PM found us a unit at New Haven that was wonderful. The PM should be commended for her great efforts in this matter.

It was terrific
Everything was wonderful! The manager responded to some tech problems we were having within 1/2 hour of our call and she got it serviced within one hour! And that was on a Sunday! I would suggest having an extra roll of paper products so we could more easily clean as needed! The grocery store is a bit of a distance to resupply!

Peaceful and quiet
This was exactly what we needed. It was very quiet, loaded with wildlife, mostly friendly folks and beautiful weather! The bathrooms weren’t clean with some parts that looked like it had never been cleaned. The rest of the house was as described and we would come back again.

Great View and Beach Nearby
My wife and I enjoyed our visit in the tennis villa on Fripp Island. Communication with management was clear and timely, and the villa was nicely kept and ready for us. The view of the lowlands out back of the villa were beautiful, and we made full use of the walking distance to the beach. It was a great experience, and we would make the trip again.

Great Place To Stay
The location of the property was perfect. Parking got a little tricky at times especially with renting a golf cart. Place had everything we needed. Minor structural issues, but nothing that took away from our stay (broken floor tiles, broken back door handle, towel rack broken in upstairs bathroom). Overall, was a great place to stay for my girlfriend, dog, and I.

Nice condo, nice view.
Everything about this home was as advertised. The place is well maintained, and nearly spotless. The marsh view is unobstructed, and clear enough that you can watch the little crabs go about their buisness. The beds are very comfortable, and linens and towels are fresh and plentiful.

Great tennis villa
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights for our babymoon and loved it. Loved the bikes and beach wagon that came with the house. The views from the porch are unbelievable, and is the biggest reason we chose Fripp. Very walkable (less than 2 blocks) to the nearest beach access so we never drove anywhere except to a restaurant off the island. Sharing a front staircase with the neighbors was not at all an issue and the walls are thick enough that we never heard them next door. Overall, a great Fripp find!

Disappointing
Several things were not up to par and would prevent us from renting this villa again or recommending it to anyone. Although stated in listing, this property does not give you access to a Fripp Island Club card which prevents you from doing much of anything except go to the beach. Received many emails from property manager prior to trip, but none mentioned the check in process so had to call PM two days before. The a/c could not maintain villa temp of 72 with the stove on and 88 deg outside. Portable a/c unit in loft did not work. No instructions were provided for using anything in villa. Bugs in villa. No air movement on deck due to location of villa which made the deck unusable. No shower wand in either shower. Long hair in shower left behind by someone else before our stay. Dishes in dishwasher left behind by someone else before our stay.

Great Long-Weekend Getaway Place for 2
Property was true to the listing! Even though it was end unit close to the main road, it felt secluded and the space was perfect. The kitchen was well equipped and layout great. The only thing I would change is the cushions on the outside sofa, they were a little moldy/dirty. Otherwise, lovely!!!!

Peaceful View
This is a little gem. Property very clean and nicely furnished. Wonderful and peaceful view of the salt marsh and wildlife while drinking your coffee or evening wine. We will absolutely come back! I almost hate to give a raving review as I'm afraid I won't be able to get it for our next trip!
Working with the rental company was easy and efficient. They provided all instructions prior to arriving on the island (door codes, instructions on passes to the island, check out instructions, etc.), provided good suggestions and left a nice starter pack in unit. They continued to touch base during duration to make sure everything was good.
Mattress was comfortable, cable and WIFI excellent, and all appliances clean and in good working order. A nice treat was a wagon provided for your beach trips, which is a 5 minute walk across the street. Bikes were great for trooping around the island.
The spiral staircase is very steep, just in case you have trouble with stairs. Could use a cookie sheet and muffin tin. Since it was only 2 of us, we didn't want to use the dishwasher every day, so we would hand wash dishes - could have used a dish stainer. However, if you use the dishwasher, I would recommend a few more plates and bowls so you don't have the run the dishwasher everyday.
All in all a very nice property!
