Welcome to the Sanctuary of Sea Horse Annex!

This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom sleeps 8 comfortably, has a screened in porch, enormous shaded back deck with great vistas of the Atlantic Ocean with rocking chairs and a gas grille. Just a walk away, you’ll travel a wooden boardwalk, through the ever-growing dunes leading straight to the white sands of heaven.

Upon your return from the beach, you will find a huge out-door shower, accepting you to wash away all the bits of the beach that accompanied you home. No need to worry about where to set your towel, we have pegs for those! And just in case you missed a spot or need to freshen up, we’ve installed a mirror for your enjoyment.

Our home offers an open floor plan with plenty of living spaces inside and out so you and your guests can appreciate each other's company. Be it calming in the rockers on the outdoor porch or having your morning drink at the table on the screened in porch, you will not be disappointed with the surrounding sounds of chirping birds in the swaying trees. Inside and outside living can comfortably be accomplished just by opening the sliders, where you’ll find fresh, newer living room furnishings, to relax the nighttime away. And just behind the couch is the dining room with a table, able to seat 8.

We have an additional chest freezer in the laundry room for your additional frozen items and back up ice.

In The Master, you’ll savor a comfortable queen size bed, looking out onto the tropical landscape, while also having access to the screened porch. It is my favorite spot to relax and read. If a little more privacy is what you want, lock the door and drop the shades to turn it into your own getaway. And when it’s time to freshen up, enjoy your own private en-suite bath with a walk-in, glass shower.

There are 2 more bedrooms in the home, one with 2 comfortable queen beds and the other with 2 twins. These 2 rooms share a Jack and Jill bathroom between them.

Golf cart is included. Bicycles and a beach wagon make this an ideal place for beach vacation on Fripp Island. Professionally managed with a team that is readily available to accommodate your questions or any needs that might arise.

Tips for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Beaufort, SC rental home:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Reserve your Beaufort, SC vacation home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Beaufort, SC area travel guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.
