The price of this suite was very reasonable compared to others and fit perfectly within my college-student budget. My friend and I had a wonderful stay, especially with the beach just steps away! We also enjoyed trying some of the restaurants recommended by the host in the neighboring town of Beaufort. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again.

Take the picture of the pool that you can not use off her page. The parking was terrible due to all the golf carts and for people that have never been to Fripp make sure to tell them that you have to have anamenity card to get in the pool to get in the bars, restaurant! Other than that it was fine.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 July 2026
Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that Fripp Island wasn’t everything you were expecting during your visit. July is one of the busiest and most festive times of the year on Fripp Island, so parking and golf cart traffic can be heavier than at other times. The pool photo is included because my Sunsuite is located in the Beach Club area overlooking the pool and nearby shops, giving guests a convenient location in the heart of the island. For future guests, I want to clarify that my Vrbo listing states that Amenity Cards are not included with this rental. These cards are required for access to the resort pools, restaurants, bars, and certain recreational amenities. Because Amenity Cards are not included, my Sunsuite is typically offered at a significantly lower nightly rate than comparable units that do include them. Thank you again for staying at my Sunsuite, and I appreciate you taking the time to share your comments.

Why they chose this property

We love to walk the beach at Fripp Island Resort. We live full time on Lady's Island, Beaufort, SC. Since Fripp Island is so close to us and has a wonderful clean beach, it was an easy choice for us to purchase a Sunsuite. Being a private island, we always feel very special when we drive through the gates. It is a quiet and restful place. There are so many places to view the most magnificent sunsets on Fripp Island. Be sure to check them out! We have had many writers stay at our Sunsuite in winter. It is especially a quiet time in winter. Bring or rent a bicycle. One of our favorite activities.
