About this property

Sparkling Retreat Steps to Beach | Fenced Backyard | Snowbird Availability

  • Professionally managed by Casago First Coast. Walk across the street to Fernandina Beach from this ground-level retreat with a fenced backyard built for dogs and evenings outside. Rinse off at the outdoor shower by the front door, then settle in with three smart TVs and a full stainless steel kitchen. A mile north, Fletcher Avenue has the shops and restaurants. Five miles further, Historic Downtown Fernandina Beach is waiting. Tandem parking for two cars. No stairs. Dogs welcome.

    The Space

    Whale Tale B is the ground-level unit of a beachside home on S Fletcher Ave, directly across the street from Fernandina Beach. No stairs to climb, no luggage to carry up. Walk in, drop your bags, and cross the street to the sand.

    What makes this unit different from most beach rentals on the island is the fenced backyard. For guests traveling with dogs, this is the feature that changes the trip. Let the dogs out, sit down at the alfresco dining table for four, and spend your evening outside without worrying about leashes or escapes. An outdoor shower by the front door means nobody tracks sand through the house.

    Inside, the layout is open and comfortable. The living area has a 50" smart TV with cable and a full-size sleeper sofa. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar for two, and a dining table that seats six. Three smart TVs total throughout the home. In-unit washer and dryer makes longer stays easy.

    A mile north on Fletcher Avenue, you'll find beach shops, restaurants, and the relaxed coastal strip that defines this stretch of Amelia Island. Five miles further north, Historic Downtown Fernandina Beach offers antique shops, the Palace Saloon, local eateries, and a walkable waterfront district. Fernandina Beach Golf Club is 1 mile away. Amelia River Golf Club is 2.5 miles. Fort Clinch State Park is a short drive for hiking, fishing, and Civil War history.

    Fenced Backyard

    The fenced backyard is the standout feature of this unit. Alfresco dining for four, enough room for dogs to move freely, and a private outdoor space that most beach rentals on this street don't have. The backyard is shared with Unit A upstairs.
