About this property

Short Walk to Beach | Pet-Friendly Duplex | Deck & Grill

  • Welcome to 1530 Lisa Ave #B on Amelia Island, FL. "Seaside Escape" has been a short term rental delighting families for a decade with a history of over 100 5 star reviews. Newly refreshed, it is now hosted by Stay Better Vacations. Less than 500 feet from the beach from a private beach access, this pet-friendly upper-level duplex offers peek-a-boo ocean views, a private balcony, and a sunrise that makes it worth waking up early. A comfortable home base for couples or small families ready to trade the routine for salt air and bare feet.

    This two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit sleeps 4 comfortably. The primary bedroom has a king bed, dresser, access to balcony and ensuite bath with a tub/ shower combination. The guest room has two twin beds that can be converted to King and shares a full bath with a walk in shower just steps away. The living room is set up with a flat-screen smart TV with complimentary Hulu Live and Peacock, and the kitchen comes fully equipped with stainless steel appliances. A dining table with seating for four plus two counter barstools is the perfect spot for puzzles or dinner. In-unit washer and dryer and fast WiFi provide all the comforts of home. There is a sleeper sofa to accommodate a total of 6 guests.
    Start your mornings with coffee on the balcony, taking in the salty air and listening to the waves hit the beach, then take the 90 second stroll to Amelia Island's sandy shoreline just moments away. Whether you're searching for shark teeth, soaking up the Florida sunshine, or enjoying a peaceful walk along the water, the beach is always close. Sandy feet? No problem. A shared outdoor shower at the home makes cleanup a breeze. This unit also shares a fenced in side yard perfect for kids or pets. Although located in the quiet North End free from traffic and congestion, it is only 1 mile to Main Beach where surfing, volleyball, mini golf, a skate park, playground, lifeguards and restaurants await. The Fort Clinch State Park entrance is 1.5 miles away and a quick, less than 3.5 mile drive, will bring you to quaint Historic Downtown Fernandina Beach.

    You can park in the driveway, parallel to the driveway, by the fence, in the grass in front of the house, or along the fence in the grass by the side yard. There is plenty of parking.

    Traveling with extended family? The upper unit is sometimes available to rent alongside this one, creating a 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom setup for larger groups. Reach out to ask about availability. This property has a maximum night stay of 6 nights.

Great beach house

Comfortable house with a very well equipped kitchen, good internet and ROKU/HULU service, and comfortable beds. The walk to the beach is less than 5 minutes, and the beach is virtually private. The fenced-in yard is great for families traveling with pets.

Another Great Beach Vacation

We've stayed downstairs twice before and the top floor is just as nice but with the addition of the top floor deck: open to the sky and a better ocean view. Both are dog friendly with a fenced yard, quiet neighborhood and evening deer visits. We look forward to coming back this time next year!

Perfect Beach Trip!

We loved staying at this house and look forward to staying here again. It is tge perfect location in a quiet residential area with a short walk to the beach. The house was exactly as described, but even better. We appreciated being able to have our 2 small dogs with us to enjoy the beach. Check-in was easy and the owners were very helpful and responsive. Amelia Island is one of our favorite places to visit and this is a place we'll stay at again!

Winter getaway

The property was better than the pictures. The property was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need especially in the kitchen. The area was beautiful quiet and everyone was very friendly. It was close to the old town which had lots of shops and restaurants. Our dog loved the beach and the deer in the neighborhood. We loved getting away from the snow and will probably be back next year. Excellent getaway

Perfect

This house was the perfect size for 4 adults, great location to everything. It was a very windy weekend so we did not get to enjoy the porch. If it had been nicer we would have spent all our time out there. Great fenced in area and neighborhood for walking the dog. I would definitely return here in the future !!!

Long weekend

Lots to do and see on Amelia Island. The house was in a quiet area with a short walk to beach. Check-in process was smooth and the house was sufficiently stocked with supplies for a comfortable short stay. The house is showing signs of wear and tear. Would benefit from some professional updates and a deep cleaning.

Great Location

Communication with owners was great! Very responsive! Super nice :)! Great location, loved the area! Very quiet & off the beaten path. Private beach was perfect! The house was nice, but could use some updating (deck, back steps) & a deep cleaning. Could use some new stainless steel pots & pans & a fry pan, as the silicone coated cookware was very scratched up & needs replaced. Also the lighting in the shower in the master bath needs an update, very dark. Beds were comfortable. Nice yard for doggies.

I have never left a bad review. The hosts were very friendly, there was even a Christmas tree set up and decorated upon our arrival! However, there must have been an issue with the cleaning crew. I spent the first day cleaning hair out of shower drains, washing dirt and dog hair out of sheets, cleaning crumbs off the kitchen counters, cleaning toilets with hair and dirty seats. They were fixing the deck with power tools the entire stay as well. This would even be ok if we were warned prior too - but we couldn’t even stay there during the day because it was so loud. I don’t think we will be staying there again. It’s a shame, it’s a great location and the hosts are very nice.

Splendid

This venue is situated in a quiet neighborhood that's just a short walk from private access to a nearby beach on the north end of Fernandina Beach. One can walk northwards along the beach to the tip of Amelia Island. Additionally, the street lights are distant enough that one can see all of the stars at night due to the absence of excessive light pollution. One can hear the ocean from the deck and enjoy an ocean breeze. The kitchen has every possible appliance/amenity available, and the whole establishment is clean and pristine. The beds are very comfortable, and the master bedroom has direct access to the deck. The living room/dining room area is spacious and comfortable. Downtown Fernandina Beach is but a short drive from the house, and all necessary amenities are well within a viable "combat radius". We've stayed here before, on the 1st floor, and they're both equally charming. We stayed for a full week, exploring the local state parks and historical sites, while taking in lunch at the charming restaurants in Fernandina Beach and cooking dinner at night, sometimes grilling outside under the stars, and enjoying the smells and sounds of the seaside. Fort Clinch State Park is just to the west, and we were graced by the periodic visits of the wildlife that migrate over from there. This place is special, and we look forward to returning here whenever possible.
