Three levels. Multiple oceanview decks. And the Atlantic just beyond your door. 🌊

There are Kiawah getaways—and then there are places designed to make the ocean part of everyday life.

Welcome to 1108 Diodia Court, a rare 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath oceanfront Duneside villa on Kiawah Island spanning three spacious levels.

Morning coffee on the screened porch. An afternoon walk straight to the beach. A swim in the seasonal community pool. Sunset from an oceanview deck. And at the end of the day? An entire third-floor primary retreat with its own private balcony overlooking the Atlantic.

Inside, an open-concept main level brings together the living, dining and updated kitchen spaces, while walls of natural light keep the coastal setting front and center.

Upstairs, three guest suites give family and friends their own spaces to retreat. Then the third floor belongs entirely to the primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired bath and panoramic ocean views.

And because it’s offered fully furnished with limited exclusions, much of what you need to start enjoying Kiawah is already here.

🏖️ Direct access to beach boardwalks 1 & 2
🌊 Ocean views from nearly every room
🛏️ 4 bedrooms | 4.5 baths
🌴 Multiple oceanview decks + screened porch
💦 Seasonal community pool
🔑 Fully furnished with some exclusions

Whether you’re envisioning a coastal getaway, full-time island home or investment property, 1108 Diodia Court puts the Kiawah lifestyle remarkably close to the water.

What if your trips to Kiawah didn’t have to end? 🌊

There’s a difference between visiting the Lowcountry and having a place here that feels like your own.

Morning walks along the beach. Barefoot afternoons by the Atlantic. Bike rides beneath the oaks. And the kind of evenings that make you wonder why you ever have to leave.

Whether you’re searching for a full-time home, a coastal retreat, or an investment property, owning on Kiawah Island means making this lifestyle part of your everyday—not just your vacation.

Thinking about buying on Kiawah? Let’s talk about what’s available and find the property that fits the way you want to experience the island.

The dinner party starts in the kitchen. The night ends overlooking the marsh. 🥂🌿

At 3694 Edings Court on Johns Island, South Carolina, this custom Lowcountry home was made for the kind of entertaining that doesn’t stay in one room.

Inside, soaring 18-foot ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace create an impressive gathering space, while the chef-inspired kitchen—with Thermador appliances, abundant natural light and room for everyone to linger—makes hosting feel effortless.

Then take the party outside.

Set on 1.25 acres with sweeping marsh and tidal views, the outdoor living spaces offer a private Lowcountry backdrop for everything from weekend brunch and oyster roasts to cocktails at sunset and long dinners with friends.

And the location gives you the best of both worlds: the privacy and natural beauty people seek when buying a home on Johns Island, while remaining convenient to Charleston, Kiawah Island and the surrounding Sea Islands.

This isn’t simply a home with beautiful entertaining spaces.

It’s a home where you’ll actually want to use them.

If you’ve worked with me before… you already know. 😂

There are things I say in real estate that sound completely innocent.

“Let’s go take a quick look.”
“I just want to check one thing.”
“Wait until you see the view.”
“I know someone.”

And then there’s what I actually mean. 👀

After years of helping clients buy and sell throughout the Lowcountry, I’ve learned that sometimes the best part of the job is knowing where to look, who to call, what questions to ask—and when to bring Chris into the conversation.

Because behind all the phone calls, property tours and “quick looks” is a team working together to make the process feel a whole lot easier for our clients.

MEET LAUREN + CHRIS 👋

We’ve welcomed quite a few new faces around here lately, so we thought it was time for a proper reintroduction.

We’re Lauren + Chris Dion, the husband-and-wife team behind the at Akers Ellis Real Estate & Rentals.

We work together. We live together. We talk about real estate at dinner more often than we probably should. 😅 And somehow, we still really like each other.

But beyond the listings, closings and market conversations, what we love most about what we do is helping people find their version of the Lowcountry.

For some, that’s an oceanfront villa where the beach is steps away. For others, it’s a Kiawah home designed for generations of family memories, a quiet waterfront retreat, an investment opportunity, or simply a place that makes it a little harder to leave on Sunday afternoon.

Luxury real estate is about more than a price point. It’s about understanding lifestyle, location, timing and opportunity—and having someone in your corner who understands the nuances of the market.

That’s where we come in.

We know Kiawah. We know the surrounding Lowcountry. We know the market. And yes, we probably know which route to take when everyone else is sitting in traffic. 😉

Whether you’ve been following us for years, recently found us, are dreaming about owning on Kiawah, or are simply here because you enjoy the palm trees and pretty houses—welcome. We’re glad you’re here.

And if we haven’t met yet, say hello in the comments. 👋
