SUNSHINE’S HAPPY PLACE

Private home with a brand new swimming pool! 4 bedroom/ 3 bath duplex rented together as a nightly rental. There are 2 beds/ 2 baths up and 2 beds/ 1 bath down. It is across the street from the beach with a PRIVATE access for our guests.

OVER 200 5 star reviews of the owner's other two properties on Fernandina Beach:
Property #298354: Rosie's Retreat
Property #221330: Cottage by the Sea

Enjoy the lovely backyard oasis featuring a private swimming pool. NO DIVING allowed and NO LIFEGUARD ON DUTY. The enclosure is surrounded by lush palm trees and tropical plants to bring the island vibe poolside. Two dining tables create space to enjoy meals outdoors. Grill your favorite steak, burgers or your fresh catch of the day.
After a full day on the beach, head back to the house to relax by the swimming pool, get a ping pong tournament going or get a competitive game of corn hole started.

There are so many delicious restaurants in Fernandina. SaltLife and Sandbar are within walking distance. Play a round of putt-putt at the course between the restaurants. Enjoy a snowcone or ice cream on the stroll home.
For your safety, we have exterior cameras at the front and back of the property.

Best reunion stay! We loved the property, all 7of us. The house was clean and well stocked, pool was a great gathering place, with chase lounges. Also, beach chairs provided to sit by ocean. The upstairs rental was perfect for our big meals and sitting on the porch watching the waves. Would definitely book again.

Family vacation

We rented both upstairs and downstairs for our stay. Plenty of room for the 6 of us gals! The pool was amazing and we spent most of our time there. Easy walk to the beach as well. 7-10 min drive to dining and shopping. The hostess, Amy, was absolutely amazing and very accommodating. We would definitely stay again.

We keep coming back!

This was our third year in a row staying in Amy’s beach house (which my 4 year old now calls “his beach house.”). Each year, it gets harder and harder to leave at the end. Amy makes everything so easy! Beach chairs, beach and pool toys, coffee makers, kitchen utensils, toys, etc. all make traveling with children easier. The pool is small, but such an amazing way to relax and unwind from the beach. The location is great and a quick walk across the road to the beach. We can’t wait for year four!

Perfect getaway

Enjoyable stay for a large group. The property was comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Even though it was cold we were able to use the heated pool. The beach was just a short walk. There were many nice restaurants just a short drive to get to. The host was friendly and highly responsive.
