It’s amazing!!! This view!! It’s really so hard to describe just how incredible it is but once you see it, you will sit there all week watching those gorgeous waves roll in and roll out and the sky change colors throughout the day you sunrise and sunset.

We are so happy you enjoyed the new and improved Trex deck. And how exciting that you all had the sea turtle experience. A rarity but more likely while in a house on the beach. We hope you come back and visit soon.

Love, love, love! We’ve visited Fripp many times over 30 years. This house quickly became our favorite. Our host Kathy was quick to respond, the house was spacious and well appointed. Best location with a nearly private beach. Grandkids loved the wide beach and searching for crabs. Can’t wait till next year!

Kitchen was well stocked with all the supplies needed to cook. You can’t beat the location, right on the beach and quiet! Can’t wait to come back!

My family and I enjoyed this great house on beautiful Fripp Island! I highly recommend it for others to stay there. It is very comfortable for 3 couples with or without children. Fourth bedroom is loft with little privacy. The house was well equipped with whatever you may need! Overall, our stay was very enjoyable!

Super easy beach access

Great views, very easy quick beach access. While babies napped inside I was still able to see family on the beach and enjoy views from large deck facing ocean. House was very clean! I gave four stars only because, if the kitchen and furniture were updated this would definitely be a five star stay. Kitchen is well stocked. There is plenty of lounge space for down time for a family of 10. We would stay here again, for sure!!

The owners are very fond of the their furniture and kitchen as are represented in the photographs 😊 We did update the house this past winter and everyone has found it very enjoyable. Of all of the homes I have had the honor of touring, the view, location of the beach and watching the mesmerizing ocean waves from this house, inside and out, cannot be beat! Thanks, Kathy

Family beach trip

This is our 3rd year at the pink palace. We love the location. We love the proximity to the beach and the beauty of waking up with the waves and sunrise with a cup of coffee. Great place to hang with our adult kids. After three years, we thought we would have an update on appliances and things like icemaker. The place is outdated for the price that they are charging.
Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 23 June 2024
Ouch! Ok…We replaced the refrigerator and added a new ice maker just yesterday, actually right after you left. The stove/oven is a Jennair and works perfectly fine. The dishwasher is fairly new. So all things are completely functional. We do have plans to remodel the kitchen this winter. So check out us for next summer. We will give you a discount since you’re a repeat and you were not completely 5 star satisfied. But remember…. The listing pictures do tell the story. If the picture of the kitchen looks the same as when you rented before, it should not be a surprise that it is still the same as the previous 2 years.

Long Weekend at the Pink Palace

The location of this property is wonderful, with beautiful views and easy beach access. The deck overlooking the beach is a delightful place to sit. The arrangement of the house is good for family groups - 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms downstairs, and a loft with a bed and bathroom. The living area can accommodate about 8 people easily, and the dining table is huge. The house could use some updates and repairs, but there was nothing that interfered with our enjoyable weekend.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 November 2020
Thank you for the list of items that you found that we could repair and make things even better for our guests. Ocean front houses are so beautiful but the salt air takes a toll on the hardware of the outdoor fixtures, etc. Thank you again for your comments. We will have the slider working with more ease and hopefully each and every Adirondack chair will be restored to beauty!

Hello 2020!!!

We spend 4 nights and 5 days closing out 2019 and ringing in 2020. The home was comfortable, colorful and completely met our needs for being close to nature, doing some good cooking in the kitchen and spending time just relaxing and being together. We would definitely stay here again and hope to come back to Fripp Island.

Family vacation

Our second year at the Pink Palace. Couldn't have a better Fripp Island beach location. Coffee on the porch watching the waves and dolphins in the surf is a great way to start the day. Noticed some of the updates from last year including the linens, ceiling fans, and new paint. Kitchen is appropriately equipped. Love the outdoor shower. Already looking forward to next year.

The view from the Deck! The BEST!

2nd Time at the Pink House. New paint and carpet upgrades were nice and new! Kathy Folds is a great person to cover our needs. The only concern was a new toaster would be helpful, the one that is available burns on the right side. But the oven broiler works well instead! We hope to come back next year!
