My wife and I had never been to Daufuskie Island before this week, but we had a great visit there this week. The condo was absolutely perfect and the island’s beauty and wildlife made for a relaxing and wonderful experience.
Six of us had plenty of room with the three bedrooms and bathrooms. Nice large table to eat and the access to the beach was perfect. The oceanview was just as advertised.
We had a great stay at this condo. Communication with the host was very fast and efficient. The location is just as described. The sunrises were amazing. Daufuskie is a remote island…not many restaurants but that’s mentioned in the description. It was cool riding around in golf carts. This is a perfect place to get away and unwind.
We spent spring break at the condo with 3 kids ages 8 to 15. Wonderful location and the 3 bedrooms were very spacious. The layout was wonderful giving us plenty of areas to hangout. The access to the beach was so convenient. Shelling and hanging out at the beach was relaxing. Head towards the palm trees to the left of the condos for natural shading. We booked a shark tooth hunt with Daufuskie Adventures and Captain Stewart was awesome! A mush do if you like fossils.
We really enjoyed our stay at the condo, place was super nice and owner very easy to work with in providing details on the island! We will be back.
Great stay here. My only suggestion would be bring basics like trash bags, and ask the host to provide enough towels per guest.
My family enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend at the property. Everything was clean and comfortable. We would stay here again.
Absolutely awesome!! What a wonderful gem of an island and an ideal location for this beautiful property
Great experience with the property and the property manager. Easy walk to the beach, pool is great even in October. Couldn’t ask for a better location to escape for a while.
Amazing sunrise & sunset. Great, secluded location. Haley was really helpful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Such a perfect stay on Daufuskie! Great communication with owner and easy to check in. View is perfect! Loved the pool right there and beach. Great chairs and towels included. Golf cart was nice! Spacious living area and bedrooms. Everything was just perfect!!!
Very nice! Beautiful ocean views from wrap around balcony porch. Our unit was everything we could have wanted. We really enjoyed the island. Owner very helpful and responsive,
Wonderful unit in a truly picturesque setting - the pool was terrific, the beach is almost indescribable and the island has so much to explore. Communication with the owner was seamless and helpful. The unit is beautifully decorated with so much space and a great deck looking at the ocean. Couldn't have been a more enjoyable experience!
From beginning to end it was a great experience. Communication with renter was top notch. We would definitely do the whole trip over again and keep everything the same.
We had a wonderful stay in this fantastic condo. Everything was as described, the unit was clean, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Haley (the host) was great to work with - we were provided very detailed information to easily arrange everything for our stay and any questions we had were promptly answered. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful and the proximity to the beach was perfect. The pool was also great. We loved our stay and will be back!
We had a great. Unit at Sandy Lane. The view was magnificent and the condo was clean and furniture was beautiful and beds were comfortable. We were impressed by the local artwork dis played throughout the unit! It was a trip full of wonderful memories!
You can’t beat this hidden getaway! The condo was in a great location. The inside of the condo was beautiful, plenty of room for our two families with four kids 8-13 and clean. We all loved the beautiful ocean views day to night. Easy communication with owners. We would highly recommend this place!! The community pool was perfect along with the golf cart!
What a gem. My family had a wonderful time. Great property with amenities. We hope to come back again next year.
The condo was beautifully decorated. The view was stunning. We could see the ocean and the pool. The open floor plan was perfect. The condo provided everything we needed. We brought extra trash bags, so that took care of our extra trash. We brought lots of paper goods.
AMAZING!!!! Beautiful accommodations!!! Did not want to leave! The host, Haley, was awesome!
Wonderful family time was had by all!
This was a very unique experience. We loved it and will be back!!
I cannot put into words how much we love the island now and this particular unit. The owner was more than kind and on top of everything( and I’m picky). If you want a truly exclusive experience this very private unit is perfect. We barely saw a neighbor. The building is a tank and I would rent it during a hurricane. It is fully equipped and nicely appointed. If you’re anything like me the art on the walls will make you go buy some of your own to take home. Initially I hadn’t even realized that I booked an island stay and the owner reached out to make sure that I had everything arranged.. with a list of contacts who made it all easy three days before the trip. This place will live rent free in my dreams until I come back. 10/10 I would book this multiple times a year. If you want to get away from busy to an absolutely beautifully slower pace of life stop looking now and book this unit!
We had a wonderful time at the condo. Everything was just as described. We had fun night playing board game provided with a beautiful view of the ocean. We loved the fact that it had easy beach access and a pool. Easy to get to Freeport by golf cart and go see all the historical areas. We disconnect and had great family time!
The property was beautiful and very accurate to the description and photos. Great views and location.
