Convenient to everything

We enjoyed our stay. Room was perfect size for us. It was a little dated but that’s ok too. Older places always bring back the nostalgia of beach trips of the past. Kathy with the rental company was always responsive and helped us with any questions we had.

Quick golf trip

Decided last minute to take a golf trip. Room was booked quickly and property manager was quick to respond. Space was very clean and had everything we could possibly need. It is small but very quaint and perfect for our stay. We will definitely stay here again.

Edisto Weekend Stay

The description was inaccurate, led me to believe it was a 1 bedroom but it was literally 1 room with pull down Murphy bed. Left batteries in bowl on counter leaking acid, NO cleaning & paper supplies, not many towels. Agent I called to ask for more tp was extremely rude.

Relaxing

We had a relaxing stay great location once we found it. Gate guard needs to explain location instead of just handing out a map GPS was no help either finally found it after returning to the gate for clarification. The location and accommodations were great for a short getaway.

Wonderful weekend getaway

I have visited the island multiple times and stayed in a couple different places. The sunsuites are a great option. This particular one is on the ocean side, just steps to the beach and pool. Great location, super clean, and had everything needed for a relaxing getaway. The host was wonderful and very responsive. Highly recommend.

Great location to the central part of the island with easy access to the beach. Located by by the adult pool and the Olympic pool. Request the amenity cards for access to anything on Fripp.

Exceeded our expectations

This place was perfect for us and our two little ones. Great price and a lot of amenities! Would definitely stay again and recommend to others! Great location for the beach, restaurants, & activities! Many things in walking distance from this lovely condo complex, yet it still feels quiet and cozy. Our condo was decorated beautifully and was clean from top to bottom at check in. Definitely exceeded our expectations!

Great location! Perfect size for us!

Overall the stay was good! My only concern was the top bunk didn't have a rail so I was waking up to every sound making sure my son wasn't about to fall off the bed lol. Would consider staying again if I could find a solution to this.

Not enough stuff to do in the area with out the cards

Although we knew ahead of time that we didn’t have the cards to use the pools there is no where else to sit in the sun out of the wind The weather was very windy so being on the beach was out of the question most days So we had to drive in to town and went as fast as Hilton Head for stuff to do most days

A really cute and convenient place

I can't say enough about what a nice little place this is. The location mid-island is amazing. I've been to Fripp many times, and this was my shortest ever walk to the ocean. The unit itself was clean and had everything we needed. As an efficiency in an older building, yes it's small, but it was the perfect size for a parent-child getaway. I also really appreciate that we were able to stay for less than a full week during peak season; that booking flexibility made the whole trip possible for us. Kathy was terrific to communicate with. Thank you for a wonderful stay; I hope we can do it again next year!

Very small

Definitely not ocean view. Your view is of the parking lot and the building between you and the ocean. Room is super small (I’ve stayed in hotel rooms that are bigger). Just felt cramped inside, so we sat outside

Horrible parking

Check in process wasn’t good. Owner couldn’t be contacted (she wouldn’t answer her phone or call back) and didn’t leave instructions for us to get in property. After driving 4 hours we had to call Vrbo and it took about 20 to get into the gate. Parking is first come first serve and is very hard to get in and out of parking spaces. The condo was small but very nice and clean. Very close to beach and easy beach access.

Needs Improvement

The location of this property in itself is a good location, however, the location of this unit leaves a lot to be desired. The unit is directly above the garbage can “housing” which was extremely unpleasant when entering and leaving the unit. In addition, the unit needs repairs, specifically to the plumbing. The shower and sink both “back up” to the point our family members showered in the unit we were renting. When owner was made aware of the issue, which it’s difficult to believe she wasn’t already aware, she did send someone out who didn’t do anything to correct the problem, nor was there follow up to ensure it was corrected. When contacted again, someone was sent out morning of departure date - evening before was an option but little too late all the way around. All in all - there’s plenty of better options on this beautiful island.

The property manager was very good at her responses to us, especially on the day of arrival when the major sink was cloaked. I do believe more transparency is order for the following reasons:1. Our ocean view was blocked by over sized palm trees.2. To use pools: 59; to go to restaurants 59;3 Service fee another 59. 4. The room advertisement says 4 can stay; but really not more than 2 as the space is very small.I don’t believe we will return. Ty.
