Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 17 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Another wonderful trip to Daufuskie! We had a great visit to Daufuskie Island with our six-year-old daughter and our 13-year-old pup. Fred's villa was clean and well-stocked with dishes, flatware, glasses, pots and pans, and cooking utensils. We took our own coffee, laundry detergent, dishwashing detergent, shampoo/conditioner, etc., but all those items were also provided in the villa except bar soap and hand soap. The last time we visited Daufuskie, we had to make separate arrangements for boat, land and golf cart transportation, and it was so wonderful that all three were included as part of the villa rental on this trip! I gave the "Accuracy of online listing" four stars instead of five because the photos in the listing are not of the actual villa where we stayed, so there was some confusion when we were taken to a different building. The photos are very similar to Fred's villa, but the floorpan is reversed and the porch color is green instead of yellow. We called him upon arrival, and he was very nice and helpful and cleared up the confusion. It wasn't a big deal since all the villas are very similar and the photos closely resembled the one in which we stayed, but we just wanted to make sure we were in the right place. We would definitely book this villa again and recommend it to others! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Papillon Lagoon Reef](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mombasa-Hotels-Papillon-Lagoon-Reef.h51709482.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Krakow Centrum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Ibis-Krakow-Centrum.h903850.Hotel-Information) > > [The Plough Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Congleton-Hotels-The-Plough-Inn.h2277453.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Croydon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Croydon-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d4247-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Arizona](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Arizona-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d204-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Gay-Friendly Hotels in Port Harcourt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Harcourt-Hotels-Gay-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d2782-tGayFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [HiltonHotels Hotels in Hereford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hereford-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d4656--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Spa Hotels in Belfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belfast-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d6034919-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Golf View Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairn-Hotels-Golf-View-Hotel-Spa.h63666.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sunderland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunderland-Hotels.d5706.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Talbot Hotel Midleton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Midleton-Hotels-Midleton-Park-Hotel.h905081.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Romsey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Romsey-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d5671-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [The Fleur De Lis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sandwich-Hotels-The-Fleur-De-Lis.h24093822.Hotel-Information) > > [Las Adelfas 2](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Miguel-De-Abona-Hotels-Las-Adelfas-2.h72982.Hotel-Information) > > [Barksdale House Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Charleston-Hotels-Barksdale-House-Inn.h4905532.Hotel-Information) > > [University of Bath, The Quads - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bath-Hotels-University-Of-Bath.h30551428.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edmonton-Hotels.d180002.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [flights from gatwick airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/lgw/flights-from-gatwick-airport) > > [Flights from LON-All Airports to Jinnah Intl.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lon/khi/london-to-karachi) > > [South African Airlink](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlink-Flights.c4Z.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Ulceby (HUY) to Dublin (DUB)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/huy/dub/hull-to-dublin) ### Cars > [Car hire in Leicester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Leicester.d7583.Car-Hire-Guide) > > [Car hire in Tenerife](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Tenerife.d6047194.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Toulon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Toulon.d3473.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Malmö](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Malmo.d2357.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Canford Cliffs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Canford-Cliffs.d3000012067.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Battery Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Battery-Park-Manhattan.d507431.Attraction) > > [Glenfinnan Monument](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glenfinnan-Monument-Glenfinnan.d6088795.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Putrajaya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Putrajaya.dx12047)
