About this property

"The Turtle" at Atlantic Beach Ct - Kiawah Island

Welcome to The Turtle! This beautiful home is located in the coveted Village at Turtle Beach neighborhood. It is conveniently situated with just a two-minute walk from the beach and access to a private community pool across the street. The home is designed for relaxation, featuring an open, airy living space with picturesque views of the ocean and a nearby lagoon. We look forward to having you stay with us.

A beautiful, fully renovated 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath vacation rental located just steps from the beach in Kiawah Island’s popular East Beach area. Situated in the charming Village at Turtle Beach, this neighborhood features white picket fences, tree-lined streets, lagoons, and a central courtyard with a gazebo.

The primary suite boasts a king bed, large windows with lots of natural light, a master closet, and a spa-like en-suite bath. The second bedroom also offers a king bed with its own attached full bath with both a spacious shower and soaking tub. The third bedroom includes a queen bed with a connected full bath — ideal for children or additional guests. A dedicated office space provides a quiet area to sneak away and take a work call or read a book.

Guests will enjoy a full gourmet kitchen with an upgraded Viking gas range/oven plus a Sub-Zero refrigerator and beverage fridge. Off the kitchen is a spacious dining room with seating for six. The heart of this home is a welcoming family room area decorated in tasteful southern style with plenty of seating for family and friends. Large windows frame the beautiful views throughout, bringing the outdoors in.

Outdoor living is equally inviting, with an expansive front porch featuring a dining table for al fresco meals, rocking chairs, and a two-seater porch swing. A Weber grill is available for cooking up meals after a long day on the beach.

Conveniently located, this home is just a 2-minute walk to the beach (via Boardwalk 28 or 29) and diagonally across from the seasonal community pool at the Village at Turtle Point. Nearby attractions include Turtle Point Golf Course, Night Heron Park, the Sanctuary Hotel, and the Roy Barth Tennis Center, all within an easy walk. For a change of pace, historic downtown Charleston is just 40 minutes away.

This was just the best place to stay! Everything was so thoughtfully curated, beautiful, and clean. We stayed for a girls trip and loved everything about this place. John, the owner, was so quick to respond and helpful. It was stocked with everything we could’ve needed and so close to the beach. Seriously, I can’t say enough great things. I will certainly be back!!

Amazing Kiawah spot. Excellent condition - feels brand new inside, probably the most organized & equipped kitchen I’ve ever seen. Great location just past The Sanctuary. We didn’t get to the community pool but it’s an easy stroll to the beach. Watch the wildlife from the huge front porch (we saw alligators, osprey, herons, and cranes) and enjoy the laid back Kiawah atmosphere. Communication was great. We’re already planning to return

The home is beautiful, well-appointed and thoughtfully laid out and stocked, The kitchen is IMPRESSIVE. I love that each bedroom has its own bathroom. We loved the close proximity to the beach as we carried all the prerequisite beach paraphernalia. From the porch we observed much lagoon nature and wildlife. Lastly, the home is conveniently located near the Sanctuary and island entrance. We will definitely return!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful home and would not hesitate to book again! As a family of four, we found the space to be perfect — well-laid-out, comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed with clean, modern amenities throughout.The kitchen and bathrooms were stunning, and it was clear everything had been well-maintained. The location could not be better — a quick walk to the beach and a community pool right across the street.The host responded quickly whenever we had a question. You could tell they genuinely cared about making our stay special.

This was a great house and location for our family of 5. Steps to the pool and short walk to the beach and short rides to any other amenities needed. The house exceeded our expectations as it was very clean, ample size and beds, and very well appointed. Anything we may have needed was available for our stay. And the front porch!! Highly recommend!

This house was absolutely perfect for our Kiawah stay! It’s charming, beautifully furnished, and one of the best-appointed rentals we’ve stayed in. Every detail seemed thoughtfully considered, and it had everything we needed to feel right at home.The location couldn’t have been better—an easy walk to the beach and incredibly convenient to The Sanctuary. We especially appreciated being able to pop over to The Sanctuary while still enjoying the privacy and comfort of the house.We made wonderful memories here and would absolutely stay again. If we’re lucky enough to return to Kiawah, this property will be at the top of our list. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by H23 Vacation Properties

Host profile image
Greetings! My name is John, and I am the owner of H23 Vacation Properties. We would be delighted to host you and your group at our home on Kiawah Island. I have been visiting Kiawah since I was a child and have a deep appreciation for everything the Island has to offer. When we are not at home in Atlanta, we spend as much time as possible enjoying Kiawah. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me with any questions about the property.

Why they chose this property

We purchased "The Turtle" in 2026 and love its central location on Kiawah Island. Having easy access to the Sanctuary, Roy Barth Tennis Center, Turtle Point Golf Club, and Night Heron Park is wonderful, and the proximity to the beach is unbeatable.

What makes this property unique

Being part of the Village at Turtle Beach neighborhood makes this home a true gem. The white picket fences and tree lined streets along with a courtyard and gazebo make this one of the most enjoyable neighborhoods on the Island.
