WHAT A GREAT PLACE FOR YOUR BEACH VACATION!

My 2 bedroom/2 bath condo is directly across from the Beach Club, the beach and the new Fripp Island food court. The condo has been completely remodeled with new ceramic flooring and countertops in kitchen and baths, new carpet, new lighting fixtures and appliances.

The relaxing top floor view from the rear screened porch (where smoking is permitted) is of the marsh and tidal creek and is a great place to start your day with coffee. There is a large deck overhanging the canal for crabbing and fishing and it is a great place to have a glass of wine and grill a steak at the end of the day.

Island activities are numerous and include 3 miles of oceanfront beach across the street, 2 great golf courses, several swimming pools (including heated, Olympic, adult only and children's),composition tennis courts, and daily children's activities (seasonal only). There are numerous bike trails and 2 adult bicycles are furnished. A golf cart is available.

Fripp Island is a wildlife preserve. No where else will you find over 500 docile deer, allowing many photo opportunities various wildlife, birds and water foul. Some dscount when booked within 10 days of arrival.

            We were happy to find the condo and towels were very clean. The condo was well-stocked with items needed for a nice beach vacation. When we needed one thing, Ben was quickly responsive, helpful, and friendly.

            We spent four weeks at Ben's Beach Villa during Feb/Mar 2012. This was our first trip to the Low Country of South Carolina, and we anticipate returning next year. The Villa was in a great location on Fripp, ready access to the beach as well as trails across the marsh and extremely pet friendly in terms of interesting and varied walks. Fripp is the last stop on the road from Beaufort, but it's an easy and pleasant ride back and we made that trip many times. We spent a lot of time exploring the sister islands; Hunting, St. Helena's, Lady's, Parris, and Beaufort itself. The local culture, first rate restaurants, galleries, fresh sea food, etc., kept us involved, well-fed, and informed. Ben was helpful when we needed something, and definitely not intrusive. The Villa was clean, comfortable, and has a great view from the lanai. In short, we loved every moment of our stay.

            The condo is an excellent getaway for anyone. We have a 3 year old boy, and the place is so child friendly. It is very convenient to everything and Ben is very nice and will accomodate you with anything you need. The condo is very clean and comfortable. We loved watching the birds fly around on the balcony. I would recommend this condo anytime.

            WE ARE SR'S AND THIS WAS OUR FIRST YEAR BEING "SNOW BIRDS". BEN'S VILLA WAS A NICE WARM "WINTER NEST" FOR US. WE TOTALLY RECOMEND IT. BEN & TWANA ARE SO SWEET, HELPFUL AND SO GENEROUS. IT WAS REASONABLE PRICED, VERY CLEAN AND THE FURNITURE WAS SO VERY COMFY. I REALLY MISS THE BED. IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO COME TO REST AND KICKBACK AND ENJOY THE MARSH VIEW AFTER RIDING THE GOLF CART OR BIKES, BEING A BEACH BUM OR WATCHING THE SUN RISE & SUN SET, JUST ENJOYING THE BEAUTY AND FUN AND WILDLIFEOF BEAUTIFUL FRIPP ISLAND.

            The absolute best vacation we have ever had! We took our three children and our dog along with us. It was the first time we have ever traveled with our dog, he loved the beach and the deer. Fripp Island was so relaxing and peaceful, a true get away. Ben's condo had everything to make you feel comfortable and at home away from home. It was a blast driving around the island on the golf cart and we rode bikes to Skull Inlet every night to see the sunset - magical! All the pools were wonderful and had beautiful views of the marshes, islands and ocean. This could be a yearly tradition for our family.

            We had a "girls getaway" weekend and had a such a great time at Fripp! Ben, the owner, was so helpful in arranging a golf cart and ammenity cards for us to use. The Villa was very clean, comfortable, and well stocked with everything we needed. The Villa location is perfect; right in the middle of the island and close to so many things to do.

            My family had a wonderful week on Fripp Island in Ben’s condo. The condo is centrally located on the island, was the perfect size for us and really had everything that we needed. It was great to have a golf cart to zip around the island all week. I wouldn’t stay on the island again without one. We enjoyed the porch with the view of the tidal creek and marsh. My 6 year old son, along with all of the other kids staying in the villas, had a blast catching the little crabs that were running all over the grass and rocks behind the villas. There was so much to do on the island. We enjoyed swimming in the ocean and several of the pools (The Cabana Club Pool is wonderful for young children). We just loved the Nature Excursion Cruise that we booked through the activities center. Morning walks on the trails, bike rides on the beach, watching all the wildlife (deer, birds, dolphins, alligators, crabs…), good food (I’m craving the she crab soup from the Bonito Boathouse), and even excursions to Savannah and Beaufort….I’m ready to go back! Ben checked in with us at the beginning of our stay to make sure that everything was in order, was available to help us if needed, and returned our security deposit promptly. I’m looking forward to a return trip.

            This was our first vacation at Fripp Island. We (me, wife and two dogs) had the best time. We really enjoyed the sunsets at the point on the golf cart and letting the dogs have a little freedom on the beach or a snooze on Ben's screened in patio while we were out. The condo was clean, very accurately depicted and really a great place to get away. We didn't start our car for 5 days due to the golf cart which we came to find out would have cost about $300.00 for the week but was included with Ben's condo. The cart made it easy to drive all over and see the deer everywhere. The kitchen was great with pots and pans, plates and silverware but we used mostly paper plates to keep the mess down. The bed was comfortable in the master, we didn't use the second bedroom. Beach chairs were provided and there were crab nets everywhere for use on the pier behind the condo on the waterway. I particularily enjoyed my daily cigar and beverage on the screened in patio overlooking the low country marshes. We've stayed at Harbor Island before and Lady Island in the past but I really enjoyed much more to do here than those locations. The security personnel on the island were friendly and helpful and did not intrude one bit. Ben's condo was great, has a man sized lazyboy and was just the right size for us and two good sized dogs with a bedroom to spare. Ben provided everything and more to include arranging for a friend to get a gate pass at the last minute for a quick visit. Thanks Ben, we'll be calling soon for round two.
