About this Property

• Sleeps 8

• Approximately 1800 square feet

Fripp Island is centered between Charleston and Savannah, just north of Hilton Head. Outlying Beaufort, you must skip across the low country islands and marshes, over causeways, past a state nature preserve and park, to reach the barrier island called Fripp Island.

Used by pirates as a base in the 1700s, it was not developed until 60 years ago. It is a private, uncrowded, secure, vacation community. Rental homes and condos are few. Over 50% of the inhabitants are residents. Many more of the homes are second homes. The Fripp Island Club Resort, with its pool, golf, and tennis facilities, will be available for use by our guests!

There are two 3 bedroom condos. They have adjoining 75' by 15' of continous deck, 75' from the ocean. Start a family/friends tradition! These condos may be rented together or separately, depending on availability. Animals are NOT allowed. The condos are adjacent to the golf course, facing the ocean.

DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS, WE RENT BY THE WEEK ONLY (SATURDAY TO SATURDAY).

We're looking forward to sharing our slice of heaven with you!

How to find the best vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Beaufort, SC rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby shops and restaurants.

Filter your rental search:

• To start, have your family agree to vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Condo - Newhaven has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. If not, contact the host before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's an individual Beaufort, SC attraction you long to visit, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of difficulties.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
