Great location for a staycation

We spent a long weekend at this condo and loved it. Location on the beach with a top level view of the beach is perfect. Easy access to the beach if you don’t mind some stairs. Nice that they had a hose to rinse off your feet. Super clean. Can’t speak to kitchen supplies as we didn’t cook.

Excellent condo

The condo is exactly as it says online. I wish we were told before our stay. That they was working on the beach and it was closed off and they worked constantly day and night and the machines beeped 24/7. So sleeping was a very big problem. Plus, with this being a beach front condo and the only reason I wanted to stay here. Very poor communication on the property management.

Great location, beautiful place!

Highly recommend! We enjoyed a weekend get away for our little family wedding. We chose this rental due to its location being so close to main beach park where our beach wedding took place. I loved the beautiful condo overlooking the beach. Beach access was easy, the neighborhood was quite and fri3ndly. The balcony was the perfect place to watch the sunrise before the wedding.

Sweeping Views!

This is our second time staying at this property. We like the location, for its closeness to historic Fernandina. We love being right on the beach. It’s so nice to wake up in the morning and watch the sunrise. The property had everything we needed for our stay. Thank you!

Perfect getaway on the beach with amazing ocean view

You can watch the sunrise right from the patio, and listen to the ocean waves. The kids have the wonderful beach right in front of the door. A beautiful place to stay at. Highly recommended.

Quick trip for work and play.

Quick three day trip to the area for work and a little R&R after. Property was in a great location, easy access, clean and well equipped. Could use a new sofa, maybe a recliner, but it severed its purpose and I would stay here again.

2nd time and it’s still wonderful

This is our 2nd time renting this condo and it was just as lovely as the first time. Check-in and out are super easy, the condo is clean and comfy and the access to the beach is unparalleled. Down some stairs and out you go. Easy access to downtown restaurants and 2 nice clean bedrooms and bathrooms. Access to our Netflix account allowed us to have a little downtime each night making for a perfect getaway.

FB @ Amelia Island

The Captain's House was always my parents favorite place to stay before they bought a house and moved to the island. I had stayed there many times with them. It was as I remembered it. I loved being on the top floor on an end.
