"We had a great stay here (myself, my wife, 12 year old daughter and 10 year old son). This was a great location, and the villa was very nice. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed exploring the island and eating at the various restaurants. The hosts were kind very good at communicating through VRBO. Highly recommend."

"We absolutely loved our stay on Daufuskie! This house is truly incredible. All furnishings and accommodations, from the towels to the baking sheets to the coat hangers, are top quality. The bathrooms are gorgeous and the water pressure is excellent — and we never ran out of hot water, even with two adults and four teenagers taking showers every evening. Bonus points for the brand new, large capacity washer and dryer. Tammy is fantastic and I truly appreciate the thoughtfulness that the owners...

"The logistics of getting to a bridge-less island makes getting here a bit more challenging than some other more traditional vacation spots but it is well worth the extra effort.
Property manager is super helpful. She answered all our questions, eased our transportation concerns, and helped us make our time very high quality.
Love the cottage vibe and can't wait to come back."

"Everything was great. This was our first trip to the island; we stayed 3 nights (extended weekend). This was a perfect amount of time to relax a little bit on the beach and to also run out to the crab co. for a bite to eat, drop by the small shops, farm market, coffee shop, distillery, etc. The house had everything needed for the beach and games/puzzles/bikes for the kids. The island has its own vibe and totally different compared to Hilton Head. It was quiet at night, felt very safe. The house...

"We are an extended family of 14, and preferred a house as opposed to multiple condos. This one fit our needs perfectly, with two distinct sides that could be separated if needed. The location was right on the ocean, and afforded beautiful views. The renters were very active in addressing our questions and few concerns. We enjoyed out stay very much."

"This property along with Daufuskie Island is a great location to decompress. This listing was perfect. Steps from the water, amenities to have fun outside, beautiful sunrises, great screened in porch to feel the warm breeze but being protected from direct sun and other elements. Very responsive hosts prior to arrival and with questions during stay. Highly recommend."
