Whispering Palms

Time to get away and relax, at this naturally-lit, calming island home. Just minutes from the beach, enjoy yourself swimming in the ocean, laying out at the community pool, sitting on the back porch taking in the beautiful palms, and watching the calm pond. Getting the chance to experience Fripp Island’s unique deer that sometimes will even let you greet them. The house is located about a mile from the nearest beach access. Wi-Fi and smart TVs are included!
* our neighborhood pool and playground does not require an amenity card.
*recommend restaurants right outside of Fripp Island (on Saint Helena Island) to get a real feel of lowcountry/Gullah food is, Johnson creek tavern (breath taking views of the water), Beedos (local amazing burger joint), Gullah grub restaurant, Shrimp Shack (a person favorite you have to check out a continuing award winning restaurant for its shrimp), and the newly opened Seaside Bar and Grill.

Property was nice but host was terrible
Host does not answer messages thru VRBO. VRBO tried to call and message to no response. Wanted to get code to check in before I departed. No luck

Best House On Fripp
My sisters and I stayed here and were so impressed by this house! We have been staying on Fripp for years and have stayed at many different houses but this one was our favorite. The house matched the pictures perfectly and was very clean. I was a little nervous at first bc I have never used this website but the property manager was awesome. They had answered every question I had and very fast. We will definitely be staying here again next year!

Great get away
We enjoyed our stay. The property was very clean and updated. The deer on the island are something special to see. The property does not come with an amenity pass to eat or do any activities on the island. It would have been nice to know before hand. Otherwise, we would definitely stay again.

Wonderful place to stay
This house was absolutely beautiful and so clean! All throughout the house you could see that it was designed to meet every need. Our family absolutely loved it. It most certainly felt like a home away from home.

Just right for us
Our family of 4 had a great stay on Fripp. The house was clean, easy to check in, and easy to check out. The pool was a great bonus, but we also spent lots of time at the beach and catching fish from the pier.
