Saltwater Zen -- Your Oceanfront Retreat on Fripp Island

The price includes all fees, amenity cards, and resort taxes. No additional charges!

Ocean front location — directly adjacent to the breakwater barrier. The peaceful sound of the ocean will melt your cares away as you relax in this tastefully decorated home.

This exceptional property has hardwood flooring throughout and two balconies for absorbing the beautiful ocean view.

The kitchen has everything you’ll need including a combination coffee maker and k-cup machine to help you start your day.

If you’re looking for some downtime, there’s expanded Cable TV as well as high-speed internet to keep you connected. Google Home is available (just say “hey Google”) to provide you with music in the living room and in the bedroom. And, you can pack light and use our washer and dryer.

1 queen master bedroom upstairs with a pullout sofa downstairs. Saltwater Zen is an absolutely fantastic location for a couple or a small family.

Fripp Island is an absolutely fantastic location. 25 beach access points and several freshwater pools. There are several restaurants right on the island and even more great options in Beaufort, SC -- a short 12-15 minute drive into town.

* Fido will have to stay behind — pets are not allowed — sorry for that.

* Note that the resort recently imposed a 12.8% tax on all rental homes, we have had to raise our fees slightly to account for that new tax. It will show up in your price quote as "Club Fee".

We hope to see you soon at Saltwater Zen!

We love Fripp. This cute beach cottage is perfect for two people. Great views and location!! Amazing watching the dolphins swimming right from the deck. Communication with the host was really good and they addressed a minor issue quickly. Highly recommend!!

This is the second time we have stayed in this cottage. We love it. We find it comfortable with all the necessities to make our stay easy and care free.

This cottage is just right for a couple’s vacation. It is supplied with everything we needed and the ocean view from the decks is fantastic. I could sit on the deck all day and listen to the ocean and watch the dolphins (I didn’t, but I could)!! There are two swimming pools within walking distance (one you’re looking at from the deck) and a restaurant right across the street.

This was our second year in a row at this property, and again our stay was amazing! We love the location, the amenities, the cleanliness, and the private pool. Michael, Tonja, and the cleaning staff are fantastic. We’ve already booked our next ten day stay for the summer of 2025!

4th time down to fripp and always stayed at the ocean cottages. Love the views and location of property. Great layout of cottage for a romantic getaway
Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2024

We chose this property for the location - water views are stunning at sunrise and sunset. We booked the hot tub balcony, and could se that unit next door, but ours didn't include a hot tub off the master/only bedroom upstairs. Wish we had the info about the cruises earlier - we missed the shelling cruise and there were no other options during our stay. But the community amenities were lovely, and the proximity to Savannah perfect.

No hot tub on the property as shown in the picture we saw. At least a queen size bed would be nice. Overall it met our needs.

We enjoyed our stay and loved the balcony. Area was very quiet and relaxing. Was disappointed that we could not find car parking near the beach access on the island.

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Saltwater Zen. We enjoyed it as much as the 1st time. It's a great location, and we saw lots of dolphins, pelicans and deer.

This was a wonderful place to stay! We enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning. We saw plenty of deer and dolphins playing everyday. What a treat!

We loved the place!! It has a beautiful view of the ocean which we spent most of our time on the balcony watching the dolphins. I would only bring clothes and food because they have everything else you could need and not much room for a lot of storage so pack lightly and use the washer and dryer provided😁 we loved it so much we can't wait for our next visit.

Our first time on Fripp Island! The condo was very well equipped and very comfortable! We enjoyed watching the sunrises which were fantastic. The unit is right across the street from golf and food. We enjoyed 4 rounds of golf while on the island. A great trip we hope to repeat in the future.

My husband and I had a great getaway at this waterfront cottage. The owners were quick with any communications and the cottage was very clean, well stocked, and cozy. The view is amazing! We watched dolphins right from the balconies several times a day feeding! Will definitely stay here again if we come back just the two of us!!!
