Ocean Views and Private Pool: Classic 1950’s Beach Gem

Escape the ordinary and unwind in style on the beautiful beaches of Amelia Island. This home was designed with vacationing in mind! Our three bedroom house - directly across the street from the beach - features 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with extremely comfortable furnishings. The Master bedroom boasts newly updated furnishings, and is equipped with a king size bed as well as luxury linens/pillows so you can rest the night away. Bedroom 2 also contains a king sized bed, luxury linens, and relaxing décor! The third bedroom- a comfortable queen that has some great peek- a-boo views of the ocean. Relax and unwind in the fully upgraded bathroom which features a walk-in marble shower and rainfall showerhead with hand wand. In addition, there is our beach bathroom as we call it, located conveniently near the patio, is the perfect place to wash off your sandy feet after a great day at the beach! Enjoy the open concept living room with comfortable furnishings, a 65" 4k TV, and well stocked kitchen with loads of natural light spilling in. Sip your morning coffee or enjoy an evening fire on the front patio while listening to the ocean .

All of this is just a 5 minute walk from the beach! Stroll just a blocks to the north and enjoy one of the least crowded beaches in Northeast Florida. Enjoy shark teeth hunting? You have found your spot as this area is known as a "honey hole" for shark teeth! A short walk on the beach (or road side) puts you at 3 great beachfront restaurants. Take a short bike ride to the enchanted and world renowned Fort Clinch State Park. Our house is also a short 5-minute drive from historic downtown Fernandina Beach where you can enjoy some of the finest restaurants in Northeast Florida!

Amelia Island is a dream vacation spot. It is truly one of the most beautiful islands in the world and is filled with fantastic beaches, restaurants, and southern charm. We have fallen in love, and we are sure you will too!

I would give a zero rating if it was an option. Completely misrepresented on VRBO website. We left 30 minutes after walking in as the condition was way beyond "cleanliness".

A cozy beach house with everything you need!

We had a wonderful time at this cozy home, which is located across the street from the beach and a few blocks from restaurants and a park. The swimming pool was the highlight for our family, particularly on days when it was too windy for the beach. The home is clean and well stocked with everything you may need. Ashley was a pleasure to work with and was always ready to help. It was the perfect getaway for our overly busy family.

Family vacation

We so enjoyed our vacation at Fernandina. The cottage was absolutely adorable! It was comfortable, clean and had plenty of room. The walk to the beach was just around the corner and the outside sitting area was my favorite. It stormed a few days and the cozy outside area was perfect for relaxing and viewing the ocean. We truly had a fabulous week and will definitely return soon. The Carter Family 😀

Cute cottage!

The description of this property was right on! My husband and I were very comfortable and in spite of chilly temps and drizzles enjoyed our time here. The location was great for those who enjoy the beach and the neighborhood behind the house was perfect for walking the dog. And the north island is very low key and down to earth. We loved being so near Fernandina Beach downtown. Ashley was so responsive and gave us good advice about restaurants in the area. She was the best host we’ve had at a VRBO!

A little piece of sunshine

I would honestly give this 5 stars but some stuff needs to be told so others know. First off the whole pool area made the vacation. Looks like they tore down a garage and either building a new one or making an outdoor space which is nice. The space is nice for the 3 bedrooms. The one bed with the black poles squeaks bad so we moved to another room. The shower is very nice but DO NOT use the spray handle or you will get water everywhere and last...know this is really only a 1 bathroom. We did read that so we were prepared. The other bathroom is outside on the porch and we used it for the pool. It also has the laundry and small shower. Last, from the pics it shows a larger/different couch so they must have just changed it out. The house does need some small work cause it is weathered but I loved we could have our little fur baby with us and the beach is just a short walk away. OHH last thing lol. We didn't think we had a TV. Just note in the living room they have a beautiful painting that is actually the TV so grab the remote and it is easy to log into.

Renter beware

I’m going to preface this review by saying for the last decade, we have only vacationed in homes at the beach that have pool. This house was well stocked, which is something we appreciated. The inside of the house is as described and was fine for our family of three. However, the pool and outside need some major work. The landscaping needs some major tlc. They could have a great outside space just by cleaning things up a bit. The biggest issue we had with this home was the pool and the pool was the major reason we rented this house. First, the pool was constantly dirty. Yes it rained and yes there are some trees around. However, we have vacationed with pools that were not this dirty and were also exposed to the elements. The hot tub did not work at all while we were there. We let the owner know of this midway through the week when we asked to pay to heat the pool. The pool/hot tub heater never got fixed until the final day when they claimed it was fixed. However, on our last day, we had to use the hot tub to “swim” and it took from 10am-4pm for it to heat to 90 degrees. We did receive a small amount of money back after we reached out to the owner and an offer for a small discount for a future stay- we will not be back. Jan is cohost and she was very kind and nice to work with. However, we stopped hearing from the owner, Ashley,completely. If you are looking for a place and will be using the pool frequently, I’d look somewhere else to spend your hard earned money.

Great location. Thoroughly enjoyed the pool, which was always cold (it had a “chiller” element). It was a perfect beach house, equipped with everything we needed. Can’t wait to see the finished outdoor area (under construction) next year when we return. Thanks Ashley for allowing us to stay and play at our favorite place!

Great Location

House is located in a great location. Easy access to the beach. Pool was very nice and clean. The house is very cute but could use some minor maintenance on the inside and outside. Very friendly and helpful host. Great communication. We would stay with this host again. We also appreciated that they let us bring our pups.

Short golf trip

The house is aged but comfy inside. The outside needs some TLC. Lawn is weeds / stone. The pool is great but broken lawn furniture stuffed on side of it. Garage is not open to guests. It basically has rotted doors as well as totted side doors by pool. Cant beat location and price is commensurate with property condition. The host was very responsive for all communications. I would recommend the property for location and pool and overall a good value for 3 brothers on a 5 day golf vacation.

Last minute weekend visit with our boys!

We were driving up from West Palm Beach on business and two of our boys live in the area, one in Jacksonville and one at Ft. Stewart. We all met here for a quick weekend visit. The pool was great! Had some awesome chairs and a wagon for the beach. It was wonderful! Super comfortable beds and pretty house! Loved it!

Great pool, super close to beach. Clean. Comfortable beds.

Wonderful location, clean, nice bedding and mattresses. Good parking. Fenced yard. Separate 2nd bathroom/laundry just outside in another building off the pool area, that was great! The pool was much needed and appreciated. The beach is a 2 minute walk and visible from the house in a few spots. My dog loved it! The inside could use some paint, as well as the outside. Maybe some new doors for the whole garage and definitely some outdoor lighting around the driveway, pool and walkways. A beautiful little beach house that we adored and would love to come back to. The backyard will be in process of a beautiful pool/patio covered entertainment area I was informed by the owner. Once again, the pool is fabulous! I will definitely return because the owners are amazing and kind people who respect nature and animals.

Close & Comfortable

We stayed a week with our adult children and it was wonderful. Very close to the public beach access. Had all the comforts of home. We enjoyed the pool and spa. The beach bathroom was very convenient for use while out at the pool or lounging on the covered patio. We actually appointed the boys to accommodate the bathroom. While we had a couple rainy days it was nice having the covered patio and covered side porch to utilize during the rain and still able to enjoy the outside. The home was situated nicely with the parking being off and away from the street. First time to Fernandina Beach, we all enjoyed our stay.
