On a last minute trip my wife and I decided to go to Fripp for New Years eve. I cant say enough good things about how wonderful this resort is. It is both a mixture of Resort type condos to residential homes and vacation rentals. You can stay in an oceanfront home or or the resort condos all the way... More

My husband, 13-month old and I stayed at 139 Captain John Fripp Villas. It was a "silver" rated 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment. The kitchen was updated and there was new flooring, but otherwise it was outdated, musty, worn, messy and not very clean. Linens were thrown in the bedroom closet and junk was stuffed in the hall closet. I... More

When our plans changed for the Memorial Day weekend - we had the chance to take off from Atlanta for a few days. After calling and calling down around 30A in the Gulf - there was NOTHING. We decided to go to East coast instead. Having been to Hilton Head 100x we very much wanted to try "something else." We... More

We stayed in one of the Sun Suite efficiencies that face the beach and had an amazing time! We were there 3 nights in mid September and the place was practically deserted. The island is immaculate: completely private, full of deer walking around, gorgeous houses, everyone drives golf carts or bikes. Do NOT come here if you're looking to party.... More

So, I read all the reviews and ended up renting a Villa ( from a private owner) right on the beach ( Captain John Fripp Villas) next to the Beach Club. The island is lovely, with lots of areas for privacy ( even on the week including the 4th of July). We cooked all our meals in the villa and... More

Do not rent through Fripp Island Resort. They are a major rip off. You can save tons of money by renting houses through private owners, which there are several websites available including homeaway.com and others. Fripp Island Resort charges a 3% NON REFUNDABLE "damage fee" as well as a 7% "Island Fee". They tack on fees to everything, and the... More

Staying at a house on the canal that runs through the center of Fripp Island called Lunaseay. The house is great, center island with easy access to Bonito boathouse and marina, and the beach club. The marina was helpful getting our boat (17' Sea Ray) in the water and giving directions for a difficult trip through the marshes to get... More

Had a wonderful time. The wildlife (deer walk right past you and you can see the alligators!), bikes, pools, beautiful beach...it was so much fun with the golfcarts, watching dolphins at the marina, the Veranda beach area and pool were so much fun for my kids - they love and it feels so comfortable. So many different things to do... More
