Welcome to 165 Beach Club Villa, Fripp Island, SC!

Centrally located, with amazing canal and marsh views, and an easy 2–3-minute walk to Fripp's wonderful 3+ miles of beach. Private fishing/crabbing dock. Accommodates up to 4 guests.

We keep our rates simple, and they include wi-fi, linens, resort access with 2 amenity cards, a golf cart, and cleaning at checkout.

The resort requires anyone 13 and older to have a card for admittance to resort amenities such as pools and restaurants.

If needed - You can get up to 2 additional cards - $55/card Memorial to Labor Day or $39/card outside those dates.

If you don't need any cards, then let us know and we can provide an updated quote with substantial savings. Most people do purchase amenity cards, especially during the summer months, as the resort requires anyone 13 and older to have a card for admittance to resort amenities such as pools and restaurants. Without the cards you still have access to the beach and there are a couple places on island where you can get a bite to eat. There are several good restaurants nearby off-island.

Our rates are based on weekly stays. Outside of the main season, Memorial to Labor Day, we are open to other options. If the dates you are considering show as available, then ask and we can see what we can do to accommodate you.

We can consider one pet with a non-refundable pet fee of $250.

Be sure and view our photos to see just what you are getting with your reservation. Checkout our reviews to get an idea of what to expect as experienced by previous guests. We strive to keep things in good working order and clean. This is our 25th year of making 165 Beach Club Villa available for a great Fripp Island experience. Any questions?

Excellent Location!

This was our first trip to Fripp Island and we will definitely be back! The property was extremely clean and very comfortable for our family of four for the week. We enjoyed cruising and exploring the island on the golf cart. The pools were nice and we enjoyed some of the restaurant options on the island, as well as a few places that were a close drive. The beach is gorgeous and not overcrowded. Easy and quick communication with the owner when needed. We could not have been more pleased with our time at this property!

Steve was very prompt in his communication with us. They are in the process of preparing the parking lot to be repaved. Steve prepared us for that prior to our arrival. We have stayed at the Beach Villas before in a different unit. Steve's was much more fresh and updated than the other unit we stayed in. Fripp Island has become a favorite destination for our family.

The condo was very clean and nice and taken care of and the kitchen had everything you could need or want and in a good location to everything. The screened in back porch was a plus and we used it just about everyday. The beds and couches where very comfortable. And the bathrooms where very clean. We will definitely be back!

Great condo and great location!

We loved this condo for the week. The location is an easy walk to the beach when you are carrying everything, or an even quicker walk when it's just coffee or wine! The condo was spotless and very comfortable. The furniture is very nice, the beds and pillows were very comfortable too. The kitchen had a great assortment of utensils and plenty of dishes. The screened deck was great - we sat out there every morning and evening almost. There is a back staircase off the deck leading to the grill and dock, making it easy to access. Met a couple of neighbors who were owners and everyone is super friendly at Fripp. Communication with Steve & Millie was great - they sent us all the info we needed and the resort calendar even. We will definitely stay there again!

Broken lockbox, malfunctioning doors, and poor communication

Just before our arrival, the owner wrote to tell us that the electronic lock on the door was malfunctioning so the unit could not be entered by typing in a keycode, but that there was a separate lockbox with keys. When we arrived, the lockbox was also broken so we were stranded outside the unit with our groceries, including ice cream and other frozen groceries, for an hour while he had a cleaner some use her spare key to access the property. Half of our groceries melted and had to be thrown in the trash. Without a lockbox or electronic lock working, we had to keep our key with us at all times because the door would lock behind us when we left. This unfortunately led to us getting locked out for 5 hours one evening when our key was lost swimming, and the owner charged us $50 for getting locked out even though a working lockbox or electronic lock (which the unit was supposed to have) would have prevented the situation. I offered to cover half the cost since losing a key was partially our fault too, but he never responded and simply submitted a charge for "damages". Disappointed that he was unwilling to have any conversation or acknowledge that his malfunctioning locks contributed to the situation. The money isn't the issue, the lack of communication was a problem.

A fantastic condo on a gorgeous island!

We just got back from a week in this condo on Fripp Island in South Carolina. We had an absolutely fabulous vacation. The condo was just right for the four of us -- me, my husband, and our two adult daughters. The condo was very clean, and had terrific features, like up to date technology, 3 TVs, an amazing view out of the back, a Keurig, a dishwasher, a washer and drier, and more. It was very conveniently located on the island. Fripp Island is truly gorgeous, with lots of amenities -- 5 pools, delicious restaurants, and a beautiful beach. I highly recommend renting a golf cart -- what a fun way to get around the island! I can't say enough about how much we loved our vacation, and Steve was a terrific host. He was very responsive in answering questions and providing information about the island and the area, and checked in with us leading up to our departure to make sure we had everything we needed. We would love to stay here again!
