Fantastic Place!
We have been staying in the area every year or every other year for the last 8 years as we visit family who live on the island. This location was great for our family. We had separate spaces for children (teen and preteen) and adults, a great balcony with a view, and easy access to the beach. It was perfect for us and we hope to stay there again next year!

Perfect view, perfectly renovated
I’m a sucker for good design, and this place is tasteful and gorgeous. The views from the living room and primary bedroom are picture-perfect. It was clean; the management company was kind and communicative. Will gladly come back!

Couldn't be more perfect!
The unit was the best stocked with everything we could need for a perfect beach getaway. The new decor was lovely and the relaxing beach colors perfectly set the mood. Wonderful views. Amelia Island is beautiful and shopping, eating and sightseeing in this unspoiled area was great. Try horseback riding on the beach!

Can't beat the view!
The property was clean and the best stocked rental kitchen I've ever stayed in. Everything was as described and management company was super easy to work with and responsive. Very comfortable and well maintained. Would stay here again. Only thing we wished we had were tennis rackets and fishing gear.

Thank you for the great review! We love hearing how well this property worked out for your vacation. We also love hearing that you felt that the property was clean, and well stocked. Cleanliness is one one of our top priorities, so we love knowing you experienced those high levels of cleanliness during your stay. Our management team works hard to be efficient, and effective with our guest communication, so we also love knowing that you received that throughout your stay. This property does not advertise tennis rackets and/or fishing gear in their listing, however it is certainly great feedback that we can bring back to our owners as a potential add on in the future. Thanks again for taking the time to send over your feedback, we really appreciate it!

Nice Beach Get Away
The condo is well taken care of and has nice touches throughout the unit. Nice quiet area of the beach with a gated parking area for your vehicle. They also have an elevator, which was great since we were on the seventh floor. The only issue we had was that the ac could not keep the unit cool on a constant basis. We kept the ceiling fans on and curtains pulled and the unit would recycle but it would still get warm during the night. Regardless the condo was beautiful and we did enjoy the sounds of the waves at night when we went to bed. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Spot and Outstanding Views
This condo will not disappoint. It’s very clean, well maintained and in a perfect location. The property managers proactively reached out to verify and confirm our stay and we’re very accessible. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived that the pictures of the unit online were totally accurate! We will definitely be coming back for another visit.

Gorgeous condo!
This was a beautiful condo, had every amenity from beach chairs, towels, kitchen cookeware, ice maker, carts (near elevator)to bring things up to the condo), etc. The whole place was immaculate and the decor was amazing! Plenty of hooks in the bathroom, one of my must haves, lol:) We were there for a workcation and there was a nice sized desk and super huge computer monitor, lots of plugs and USBs everywhere, too! Very quiet, walls must be very thick, we didn’t hear anything outside there the whole week! The view from the patio with very comfortable seating ( I prob sat out there reading and napping more than on the beach even, lol) was amazing, sunrises every morning (sunsets seen out the front porch, that view was nice, too) had the most fabulous beach view and you can see the pool and beach from there if you have kids you want to keep an eye on. The condo is next to the pier, a great spot to sit under in the shade while on the beach all day, and nice to walk the pier and hang out, especially if you like fishing, the beach seems to not be crowded on non holiday weekends, after the July 4th weekend, it cleared out and was hardly anyone there, really nice! Great location, some food places and stores close by in walking distance, and had no issues with food delivery, just let them know how to get in the walk in gate and they drop off right at the door! Issues: parking, we were able to find parking, but you sometimes had to park farther away, or across the street if it’s a holiday busy weekend, just FYI. The building is a little older, huge with over 80 units, the condo is on 7th floor with elevator, though the power went out for about 3-4hrs in the whole building, so had to take the stairs, thankfully not on our check in or check out day., but if you have a problem with stairs it could be an issue. The check in was a bit extra, you have to park outside the gate, walk in (use gate code)and go up to the condo to get the gate key that lets you drive into the complex. Food recs: Bantam and Biddy, Tortuga Jacks, Salty Pelican Overall, I give this place a high rating because it was super awesome!!!

Hi Jalila! Thank you so much for your generous review! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at this amazing property! Glad you enjoyed a nap or two on the balcony! I am sure the sound of waves is a factor of a great nap!!! So sorry the elevator went out! It doesn't happen often which is a good thing! We can pass your parking comment on to the Association to see if there is a more seamless entry! We hope you come again soon!!

Lovely family getaway
We enjoyed our stay in this property, it was clean comfortable and well equipped with lovely sea views. It was also quiet even though the condo was busy. We enjoyed the beach, the pool and watching dolphins in the evening from the fishing pier.

Amazing view and condo!
The condo is so clean and updated with beautiful colors and decorations. The balcony furniture is comfortable which in my opinion is rare in a beach rental . The condo is so well stocked with cooking necessities. They also have two nice beach chairs and towels if needed. The condo is spacious and has a nice eating area. Now to the most important part… the view! Holy cow it’s like you are right on the water and the sunrise is spectacular- stunning ! There is a great restaurant accross the street and we walked to sliders for lunch which was about a mile up the beach. Just a wonderful condo and location.
