4853 Turtle Cove
Great location near Turtle Beach, Turtle Point Golf Course and the Sanctuary Hotel. Akers Ellis Rentals is the best rental agency on Kiawah. Their attention to detail in cleaning, prepping, managing their rental units. The Vay Kay rental equipment credit is a first class feature as we were able to have bikes our entire stay. Not the best lagoon view and the twin bedroom bath needs updating but overall an excellent unit and an excellent rental agency managing it.

Perfect, inviting and charming!
We were pleasantly surprised at this villa! Originally we were supposed to stay somewhere else but due to repairs being done we were moved to this beautiful and most inviting villa. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this villa from the outside beauty of the surrounding area to the inside charm of the entire unit. We had everything we needed from the well equipped kitchen to the washer and dryer inside the unit. The towels in each bathroom were in abundance and everything was clean and move in ready. All of the beds were very comfortable! Beach access was just a couple minutes on the bike or maybe a 5-minute walk away and very accessible. I highly recommend bicycles because we enjoyed hours of exploration!! Overall it was a great 10 days spent on Kiawah! We would highly recommend this villa to anyone and we also look forward to coming back for a future stay in this unit.

Excellent choice for Family Vacation
Property was as described. Kitchen, though tight, was well-equipped. Beds were comfy unless you prefer firm. Updates in 2 of 3 bathrooms were great. Built-ins in closets were fantastic! Living room with sectional was a great place to gather for board games. Furnishings on screened porch were comfortable and clean; a great place for morning coffee after a run! Location was very convenient to beach and market. Would choose this property again.

Our stay at 4853 Turtle Cove Villa
We thoroughly enjoyed our week at 4853 Turtle Cove Villa. It was clean and the location was great. We had everything we needed, except a large skillet. We had trouble figuring out how to run the dishwasher, so perhaps an instruction sheet near the dishwasher would be helpful. Other than that, everything was perfect. We would definitely stay there again.

Serene retreat
The unit is very nice and definitely feels like a home versus a rental unit. It was well-stocked with all the basics (towels, bedding, paper products, etc.). The lagoon is off to the side, but you can see it if you sit in the right spot on the screened-in back porch (which could use comfier lounge chairs). The closest beach access is a 5 minute bike ride or 10 minute walk. The beach is very nice (wasn’t crowded at all in March).

Parking at the unit is very convenient for both cars and bikes, right outside the front door. This is a ground floor unit, so we definitely heard footsteps above us, but was quiet otherwise. Sound does travel a lot within the unit—for example, if someone is watching TV in the living room, you can hear it in every bedroom. The King and twin-size mattresses are comfortable, but the queen size mattress is extremely (uncomfortably) firm—it could use a foam topper. The only other small request would be to have a cutting board available in the kitchen.

Property management is very responsive. The bathtub in the kid’s bathroom wasn’t holding water and I left a voicemail on a Sunday afternoon. I got email confirmation of my request right away and someone stopped by with a rubber stopper as a quick fix that same afternoon.
