About this property

Spectacular condo with 2 king OCEANFRONT bedrooms just steps to the Ritz!

If you are looking for a LUXURY space, for up to 4 adults, that rivals a suite at the Ritz, YOU'VE FOUND IT!

STUNNING total renovation of this two bedroom (BOTH OCEANFRONT), 6th floor Surf And Racquet Club Villa! Almost 40 feet of VERY PRIVATE uninterrupted views of the ocean between the living room and the 2 balconies off of each of the 2 OCEANFRONT KING BEDROOM SUITES which each have gorgeous private baths! Completely new kitchen with new cabinets, quartz counters, range, dishwasher and refrigerator! Both private bathrooms have all new walk in showers with high end tile, marble and new vanity cabinets! Curated art and furnishings include original art and vintage furniture as well as modern pieces from Arhaus, Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn. SWEEPING OCEAN VISTAS from almost every area of the condo... Come experience it for yourself!!

FEATURES INCLUDE:

• Large, OPEN CONCEPT living & dining area with a new 55 inch Samsung smart HD TV on a full motion mount that enables adjusting to almost any angle and allows you to enjoy our YouTube TV channel package as well as the ability to log in directly to all of your personal streaming accounts. Living area opens to both oceanfront balconies.

• Gorgeous white kitchen with ALL NEW high end Stainless Steel Appliances, NEW cabinets, NEW quartz counters and a large assortment of small appliances, kitchen utensils and cookware.

• The two king bedroom suites have new hybrid mattresses and high end luxury sheets and bedding. Each has a desk with charging station and both open to private oceanfront balconies! Each have new 42 inch Samsung smart HD TV’s on motion mounts that allow you to enjoy our xfinity channel package as well as the ability to log in directly to all of your personal streaming accounts. All new baths in each suite with NEW tile and marble showers, NEW vanities (one has double sinks), NEW flooring and lighting.

• Generous COVERED VERANDAS off of each bedroom open to the living room as well creating an unbelievable flow! One features a pair of chairs as well as a bistro dining set and the other has a outdoor dining table for 4!

• Free (and very reliable) Wi-Fi High Speed broadband Xfinity Internet – no problem with video conferencing, zoom meetings, etc.

• The mechanical room off of the hall near the laundry closet also contains beach gear, boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrella and tennis racquets

• The elevator that services our building is just outside our unit providing very easy access

The Surf and Racquet Club is a gorgeous, private, gated resort that is extremely well maintained. The resort offers DIRECT OCEAN ACCESS, 2 SWIMMING POOLS and 4 HAR-TRU TENNIS COURTS that are meticulously maintained with a resident tennis pro. The lovely grounds and sweeping lawns are just steps away from the RITZ CARLTON via either the beach or a paved pathway draped by a live oak canopy.

Please note that this unit is set up for adults only... Although we love children (and have raised 2 ourselves!), there are NO child safety features in the condo, we have high end furnishings, high end original art, showers only and the 2 separate 6th floor balconies aren't child friendly, so we simply aren't comfortable hosting children. Thanks for understanding.

Fernandina Beach

Beautiful condo, even more spectacular than pictures. Two King suites, both with walk-in showers, very hard to find. Owners provided a bottle of wine, fresh flowers & candies upon arrival! Very easy to access our unit, front gate, etc. Never had owners leave so many extras; facial cleaning wipes, extra toiletries, dishwasher & washing machine detergents! A fabulous week- and did I mention the million dollar view??

Great Condo

We enjoyed our short stay at this beautiful condo! The host was very attentive and prompt in answering our questions. The layout of the condo was really nice for 2 couples. Each of us got our own King size bed and nice balcony/view of the ocean. We do recommend this lovely condo!

Best Unit at Amelia Surf & Racquet Club!

We can't say enough about how pleased we were with our stay here! The listing photos only provide a glimpse of how wonderful this unit is. Recently updated throughout, the place is warm, welcoming, and very clean. The ocean views are spectacular, the rooms are large and comfortable, and the full-size washer/dryer and kitchen appliances made us feel right at home. Joan and Joe were amazing hosts and filled the place with personal touches and conveniences ranging from spa-level soaps and shampoos in both bathrooms, to a fully stocked coffee bar, to a variety of baking goods, spices, etc., and even a bottle of welcome wine! We have already reserved the space for next year and look forward to many happy returns. Book today... you will NOT be disappointed!!

Truly Amazing!!!

This is a beautiful condo with an incredible view! It is even more stunning than the photos in the listing. The grounds were well maintained as were the common areas of the buildings. Perfect layout for 4 people. We were entertained daily watching the dolphins and turtles and rabbits. Looking forward to our next visit.

Beautiful Property

The condo is gorgeous, recently renovated, very well stocked, will definitely stay again. The buildings themselves are older, owners can’t do anything about that but this owner has got to have the best unit in the four buildings. We stayed here instead of Ritz, for space, and didn’t regret it at all. We walked to Ritz each morning for breakfast.

Perfection!

My sister and I stayed at the condo for an extended weekend. The condo was perfect for our needs. Everything we needed for a relaxing trip was available in the unit. The unit was clean. The furniture was incredibly comfortable. It was great we had our own bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen was well appointed. It's a five minute walk down the path to the beach. It's a great beach! Condo was near stores and other fun activities on Amelia Island. We (women of color) also felt safe. Others renters (or owners) were very pleasant. We look forward to returning!

About the host

Hosted by Joan and Joe

Host profile image
After vacationing in Amelia Island for many years we decided to fulfill a dream and purchased a 1 bedroom condo in Amelia Surf and Racquet Club in 2017 as an oceanfront retreat for ourselves as well as family and friends and our wonderful vacationing guests! We enjoyed it so much that we upsized to our current 2 bedroom unit in 2021 and did a major renovation that was completed in July 2021! There are more pictures and information on the VillaSoleilAmelia website… so check it out!

Why they chose this property

We spent years visiting beach towns all up and down both coasts of Florida, but immediately fell in love with Amelia the first time we came here over 20 years ago! And the feeling has never changed. From the unbelievable, uncrowded beaches to the charming historic town and the old growth oak canopies all over the island, we’ve never found a place that offers so much or feels more like home.

What makes this property unique

The View is simply spectacular. And the location of this south end resort accessed from an idyllic tree canopied street just steps away from the Ritz Carlton can’t be beat! Miles of beachfront at the back of the complex and miles of pristine paved trails to the front with pools and tennis on the property and golf, restaurants and shopping all less than a mile away offer something for everyone!
