Fodor's Expert Review Wyndham Ocean Ridge Resort

1 King Cotton Rd., Edisto Beach, South Carolina, 29438, USA

If you're looking for high-end amenities in a get-away-from-it-all escape, the island's only resort has it all. These 250 time-share units can be rented out with a two-day minimum stay. Summers are solidly booked, especially the weekends. Although none of the accommodations sit on the beach, most are just a short walk away, and there are three swimming pools within the resort. The family-oriented recreation staff knows how to keep kids amused with everything from painting classes to organized nocturnal turtle-watches. There are also Lowcountry shrimp boils and nature walks, but the primary activity here is enjoying the island's golf complex. A tram transports you to the resort's beachfront cabana, which is delightful, with plenty of chaises.
