Great Ocean View, Location and Accomodations
We were all impressed with this unit. It was better than expected. The owner/property manager does those 'extra' things that made our stay enjoyable. The communications were better than anywhere else I have stayed- Ever! We often used the provided eGuide for Home/Restaurants/Things to do. We will stay here again!

Beautiful condo INSIDE
The inside of the condo was absolutely perfect! We had everything that we needed except for a broom! The view from the 3rd floor balcony was fabulous! The management company was the most efficient that I have ever dealt with. Every last detail was sent to us, several times via email and text. No issues with check-in, check out, thermostat, or anything else. Downside for older people or handicapped: My mom has a walker and cannot climb stairs. To get to the pool or beach, she had to walk all the way to the end of the building, around the building and back down the other side because of the stairs at the pool. Also, one of the elevators was broken. Also, there were no umbrellas at the pool, only a raised area (up the steps) in the shade. Lastly, the complex has plastic shopping carts for luggage! I ended up with 2 broken ones because the only regular luggage cart was being used by contractors for their heavy equipment. (Which they kept all day while working). I noticed the contractors also loading up the shopping carts with heavy equipment. Probably why so many were cracked and broken. Overall, it was a nice stay, but will find somewhere next time more appropriate for my mom.

So nice
This condo is amazing. My family actually stayed in it before they remodeled it and the owners have done a great job. My family actually rented 3 rooms at Amelia South during this same week and this was by far the nicest one. Communication was fast and helpful with the property manager. The beds slept amazing and the bathrooms were nice and clean. We loved our stay!

Perfect Place for My Daughters, Grands and Me
The beautifully decorated ocean front property was the perfect place for my daughters, grands and me to spend a few days. My grands and I watched the sunrise from the window without waking Mommy. Everything we needed was available. Will definitely plan to stay in this condo again.

Only stayed three nights. Perfect for two couples as each bedroom had a king bed and private bath. We were on the 3rd floor and the elevator was most helpful. Views from balcony were gorgeous.

This is the best vrbo experience we’ve ever had. The unit was clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped. We sent a text to the property manager saying it would be nice to have a dust pan and a cutting board, and they were delivered to our door within minutes! The view is fantastic.

A little break!
The place was awesome, the area was just what we were looking for. We couldn't have picked a better location! My one and only one issue was that we were not able to check in earlier then the posted 4:00 pm arraigned time. I understand that the need to prepare the property is paramount. I feel like that quite possibly an early check-in request was not recognized or prioritized. We have used VRBO several times and I hope this refusal is not standard pracitce.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your recent stay with us William. We are thrilled to hear that you found our location and property to be awesome and met your expectations. As you mentioned, preparing the property for our guests is a top priority, and we strive to ensure that everything is ready for your arrival at the designated check-in time of 4:00 pm. While we understand that early check-in requests are sometimes made, we are only able to accommodate them if our cleaners have finished preparing the unit early. Unfortunately, we do not have control over their schedules and cannot guarantee an early check-in before arrival. Thank you again. Stacie - Stay Better Vacations

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Bill. We are happy to hear you were pleased with our process, the cleanliness of the unit and the updates. We agree that a heated pool is a great idea, unfortunately those are not very common at any complex on Amelia Island. Stacie - Stay Better Vacations

Great stay at Amelia South K3
The condo was beautifully decorated, very clean, well maintained and well equipped. The place made us feel like we were home rather than just staying someplace while on vacation. The ocean view from the balcony was amazing. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of drawer space for cloths. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals as well as serving trays and bowls which was a great surprise. We enjoyed staying in the condo and would reserve this condo again.

Newly Refurbished/Updated Unit and Very Clean
Unit has been completely updated very very recently. Excellent location and convenient to everything by bike or car. Enjoyed our visit. We went to Amelia Island State Park, Fort Clinch Park, hiked the Egan's Creek Greenway, and walked for miles on the beach every day.
