The idyllic island life awaits at this stylish escape, located across the street from Fernandina Beach. Highlights of your unit include a private deck with partial views of the Atlantic Ocean, three smart TVs, and a well-appointed full kitchen. Stroll mere steps to the beach for blissful days playing in the dazzling sand and surf. Head 1 mile north to discover a selection of beach shops and restaurants along Fletcher Avenue. Or drive 5 miles into charming and historic downtown Fernandina Beach to go antiquing, sample an array of local eateries, or find nighttime entertainment at the historic Palace Saloon. Tee off at Fernandina Beach Golf Club (1 mile) or Amelia River Golf Club (2.5 miles).

Modern furnishings invite you to unwind into vacation mode in the living area, featuring a queen sleeper sofa and two armchairs. In the evening, choose a board game from the shelf or settle in to stream the latest cinematic releases on the 42” smart TV with cable. Whip up tasty dishes in the kitchen, equipped with a full suite of sleek, stainless steel appliances. Enjoy appetizers at the kitchen bar to keep the chef company. When it’s time to eat, gather around the dining table and reflect on the fun you had earlier in the day. Later, indulge in the partial ocean views from the table for two on your private deck before blissfully drifting off to sleep shortly after.

We had a pleasant stay this past weekend. The location was great, we loved having the deck upstairs. Most everything was as depicted in the listing. It is very pet friendly. However, backyard access for the upstairs tenants is limited to daytime use only due to the light switch being in the downstairs unit. Had we known this beforehand, we would have rented the downstairs unit vs the upstairs for our dog. The gate to the backyard was also difficult to get into if you are staying upstairs because there is a string attached to the latch that opens the side gate and if the string is not accessible, you cannot access the backyard. The only other noticeable things were that the toilet seat was loose and falling off in the bathroom and the over all cleanliness of the home could have been better.

Cute and clean getaway

We loved our stay here. Place was comfortable, clean, and very cutely decorated. Walk to the beach was short. Customer service was amazing. Check in and access was easy. We were in Unit A which is upstairs. There is a small covered deck with outdoor seating area but only two chairs. The small backyard had a table and chairs but we did not access.

Make sure you know what you are renting! We were fooled by the property title.

At the time of booking,this rental was titled “entire home“ which has now been corrected. Listing still shows as an amenity “gym/exercise room” which I have yet to find. The shared fenced in backyard needs a lot of work, broken gate with one small patio area in middle to seat 4, not user friendly when shared between two different families. Shared outside trash cans where renters were responsible to take to curb on trash day was a huge problem. With no garbage disposal and renters who exceeded occupancy each day, cans stayed full and had no assistance taking overflowing cans to curb. The shared driveway with 2 car limit was a pain, other renters, had 3 - 4 cars their entire stay and parked on both sides of grass/gravel areas making it difficult to pull in and out of driveway (once they blocked us in). Dishwasher was full upon our arrival. Family room furniture needs replacing, no support. Could not wipe off feet or dog after beach walk because of missing outside water spigot handle. If you had the entire home this would have been an ok rental.

Location

We were first placed in unit A which I incorrectly assumed was the first floor. Wrong 13 steps and two days later we requested a change with management. I am 79 years old and 13 steps was difficult. Management was wonderful they agreed and we ended our trip having a great time!
