Wonderful place!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!!! Views were great. Right on the beach via a boardwalk. We thought we would be bothered by the multiple units at the place since we initially thought we had a house to ourselves (didn’t read the whole listing I guess), but it wasn’t any big deal. We actually rented a second unit so one of the families could spread out a bit more. It was perfect. Thanks for the great upkeep of this place!

Inside of house is very nicely remodeled. Much thought has gone into making the house comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The nice level walkway to the beach made it an easy walk, though it was a bit long for our group of 65 to 75 yr old women carrying beach chairs, etc.

A Wonderful Family Vacation
The property was a great spot for a family get-away...a boardwalk away from the enticing beach and surf with plenty of things to do in the area during rainy periods. The house is indeed in close quarters with other renters. For a property that could accommodate so many guests, the kitchen was a bit lacking in cookware, given that we cooked 100% of our meals, but we all had plenty of space in the nicely renovated house. We had a few issues to which the property manager responded, but we had to work around them. All in all, it was a pleasing place to stay.

From the write up, our expectations were high. I’m happy to report that everything was as advertised or better! Plenty of space for our family of 6 plus dog. Immediate, private access to beach and adjacent to a local favorite restaurant. We’ve been renting properties since 2012 in Amelia Island and is the best we’ve found.
