About this property
Sandy Shores, Oceanfront Pet Friendly 775 Marlin Drive
Sandy Shores | Oceanfront | 160° Atlantic Views | 6 Ensuite Bedrooms | Sleeps 22. Located oceanfront with 160° unobstructed Atlantic views, six private ensuite bedrooms, and room for 22 guests — Sandy Shores delivers the space and location large groups are searching for. With over 3,800 square feet of living space, three oceanfront king suites, a full-length back deck, and beach access just steps away, this home is ideal for reunions, retreats, and multi-family gatherings.
Open Living Designed for Large Families and Entertaining: The main level features an open floor plan with hardwood floors throughout and generous gathering space that allows everyone to be together without feeling crowded. The well-stocked kitchen is perfect to enjoy family throughout the large open floor plan living space. The long bar area is perfect for serving and entertaining. A separate ice maker and mini refrigerator in the bar add convenience, while a second full refrigerator in the garage provides extra storage for large groups and extended stays.
Six Bedrooms — All With Private Baths: Each of the six bedrooms includes its own attached full bathroom and smart TV with streaming capability.
Main Level (4 Bedrooms):
• 2 oceanfront king suites with direct access to the back deck
• 2 bedrooms with two queen beds in each
Upper Level (2 Bedrooms):
• 1 oceanfront king suite with queen sleeper sofa (memory foam mattress)
• 1 bunk room with two twin-over-full bunks (adult-sized full beds) plus a queen sleeper sofa (memory foam mattress)
The layout offers privacy for multiple families while comfortably accommodating up to 22 guests.
Outdoor Living & Beach Access: The full-length back deck spans the entire width of the home and the indoor living space opens up to a large outdoor seating area. The deck also connects directly to both oceanfront king suites. Enjoy sunrise views over the Atlantic and evening coastal breezes from multiple vantage points.
Beach Access #2 is located just steps away, providing quick and easy entry to the sand and surf. An outdoor shower makes rinsing off after beach days simple.
Additional amenities include:
• Ping pong table with shaded seating
• Some beach chairs and beach towels
• Beach toys
• Weber grill
• Patio furniture
• Games and puzzles
• Washer and Dryer
• Parking for up to 7 vehicles
Sandy Shores is consistently maintained and thoughtfully updated to enhance comfort for large groups. Returning guests often discover something new — refreshed interiors, improved finishes, and ongoing upgrades designed to keep the home feeling current and welcoming.
Pet Policy: Pets are welcome with prior approval. A signed pet agreement and non-refundable pet fee ($150 first pet / $75 second pet) are required. An additional $300 charge applies for unapproved pets.
Resort Access: Amenity cards are available for purchase and are required for access to Fripp Island’s pools, tennis courts, restaurants, and two championship golf courses.
The Fripp Island Experience: Fripp Island is a private, gated coastal community and designated wildlife sanctuary where beach living and nature coexist beautifully. Deer roam freely through the island, blue herons and white egrets gather along the marsh, dolphins swim just offshore, and sea turtles nest on the beaches during the season. The island’s rich birdlife and natural habitat create a peaceful, distinctly Lowcountry setting unlike anywhere else. Golf carts are the preferred way to explore the island’s beach accesses, marina, golf courses, and dining spots, adding to the relaxed coastal rhythm that makes Fripp truly one of a kind.Club cards are required to enjoy any of the Fripp Island Resort amenities and they are available for purchase with this property. If you opt to purchase cards, a new 12.8% resort fee based on the rental amount before taxes, cleaning and other fees will be charged in addition to the cost of the individual Club cards.
