About this property
Ocean/Marsh Front, NEW renovated Deck!
Marsh+Ocean Wonderland 🌴 Welcome to Turtle Villa!
Take in the lush, coastal beauty of the Carolina Lowcountry from our 2BR/2.5BA Cedar Reef Villas condo! Watch the glow of sunrise on the marsh & ocean without leaving your plush king bed. Play a game of tennis, then take a cool dip in one of the resort's pools within walking distance. Stroll to the beach via the Cedar Reef boardwalk access, or drive 3 miles to pristine Hunting Island State Park. Close out the day in nearby Beaufort with a date night dinner and a stunning sunset on the marina!
The space
Ideal for couples and small getaways with old friends (sleeps 5), our condo is newly remodeled and arranged to make the most of the incredible ocean and marsh views. Even better in person, the nature-rich scene from the condo shimmers like a watercolor painting with verdant wetlands that stretch to the sea.
BED + BATH
Bedrooms include a king-size master suite and a guest suite with three twin beds (one is a trundle). Both are on the second level and have flat-screen TVs, ceiling fans, and their own attached, private bathrooms.
Each bath has been recently remodeled and fitted with new hardware. The master bath features a walk-in shower with bench seating and pebble floors for a spa-like experience.
LIVING + DINING
Sky-blue walls and earth-toned sofas and chaise loungers in the open living area lead to sliding glass doors out to the balcony—a lovely place to take in the endless views in the salty breeze. Sit at the four-person table on the balcony with your sunrise coffee or sunset wine.
Back inside, sea turtle art and other accents pay homage to our resident loggerheads, and are the origin of how we adopted the name "Turtle Villa". The living area coffee table unfolds to a game table for cards or boardgames after the beach.
The kitchen is freshly remodeled and well-stocked for cooking, with granite counters and new stainless appliances, including a dishwasher. Take in the view while you cook!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sherry Heimberger
Hello all and welcome! We are Sherry and Steve. We have been Airbnb hosting approximately 5 years and are very excited to share our space with you! First a little background. We are from the Appalachian foothills of north Georgia near Helen. However, we decided to try "Lake Life" and currently live on beautiful Lake Hartwell! Steve works in IT and I am in accounting. We have a daughter who is 29 and teaches College while pursuing her Doctorate. She is also recently married! We now have the best Son (in-law) who owns a Dental Practice! We love to travel, explore and take several small weekend RV trips per year and usually one longer trip—either a cruise or flight to some new faraway adventure. Over several decades this has allowed us to essentially “try-out” hundreds of beaches and little oceanside towns. After numerous RV trips to Hunting Island, we knew we liked the area very much. After visiting Harbor Island, and staying in one of the Villas, we knew we loved the area! In early 2020 we decided to officially put down roots in this hidden paradise and purchased a 2 bedroom beach-front condo—now affectionately known as "Turtle Villa". We plan to visit often and share the remainder of the time with our Airbnb friends and family. Come create some tan lines and memories at Harbor Island, we’d love to have you! #iloveturtlevilla
Why they chose this property
We chose Harbor Island, not only, because of its unique "Low Country" vibe and beauty, but also the quietness and security it offers. This is a perfect place to unwind and reset versus the rowdiness and "line waiting" of other "popular" vacation areas.
