Perfect for beautiful sunsets

The best thing about this property was the 3 porches (one screened) with a long marsh view. We spend much time on the porch listening to the nature around us. The house was perfectly clean but would benefit from some updating starting with the charcoal grill that was in its last days when we were there. We would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful Vacation at The Hidden Palm on Fripp Island

What a wonderful vacation we had at The Hidden Palm on Fripp Island! The layout of the house was great, and the interior design was first class. We enjoyed spending time with cocktails on the upper deck, dinner on the screened-in porch overlooking the peaceful marsh, ping pong in the rec room upstairs, and plenty of golf cart rides to the beach and around the island. The Ocean Point golf course was in pristine condition, and was enjoyed by our guys. We had a great weekend and will definitely be back. I would highly recommend this beautiful home as a topnotch vacation getaway!

We had a special time together at this home on Davis Love. The house is spacious enough for10 people & a baby including a nice screened in porch for reading, eating, talking & napping. We had a few issues that were resolved with a quick phone call to the owner--she took care of our problems & replied to our messages in a timely way.

Our group of 10 loved this space for our women's retreat. We had a lot of structured discussion time and had plenty of room in the den. The big table held all of us. The back porch was so peaceful. The different levels gave some space and separation when needed. It was a beautiful weekend!

Marsh views and porches!

The Hidden Palm was a wonderful place to stay with great views of the marsh. It offered a reverse floorplan with most bedrooms on bottom floor along with a large covered porch and laundry area.The kitchen, dining, great room, an additional bedroom and awesome screen porch were on the second floor. Our teens enjoyed the game room and open deck on the third floor. The home was beautifully decorated as well. We liked the enclosed brick courtyard area for storing beach supplies. The property manager was available by phone or text, and very responsive to questions or requests.

The Ideal Beach Retreat

"The Hidden Palm" was beyond our expectations! From the moment of arrival, its marsh views are captivating, and you can sit on the porch for hours. The house is clean, well-decorated, comfortable, and relaxing. The kitchen is well-stocked and has everything needed for family meals, and the game room on the third level is an added bonus! Bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, and its location is unbeatable. The thoughtful touches throughout the house made it feel like a home away from home. The property manager, Barry Fitzgerald, was responsive and helpful. He went above and beyond to make the stay perfect, including installing a new disposal when ours broke on the second day. "The Hidden Palm" was the ideal beach retreat for family, and we highly recommend it to anyone seeking a relaxing vacation with marsh views. We will definitely be back soon!

Memorial Day Weekend

Booking was quick and easy! The house was incredible, spacious, comfortable and clean. The views were outstanding!! We enjoyed sitting on the spacious screen porch each evening. The house has all of the essentials and more. Kathy was a pleasure to work with. She arranged our golf carts in advance of the stay. She checked on us to make certain we had everything that we needed. We had one minor issue with a slow tub draining and she had it fixed promptly. Outstanding customer service. I highly recommend this home.
