Owners response:
April, thank you for your kind response. We always love having repeat renters and your family took extra special care of our home. It was also great to meet you last year.
Since you were here last year, we have added a new golf cart, 2 new kayaks with oars and vests, and some new furnishings to the house. We have added all new furniture in the master bedroom with a fabulous top of the line king mattress. We always want our guests to be comfortable and have the convenience of a top rate resort and house.
Hope you enjoy your vacation in June and please let me know if you need anything else.
Regards, Sheryl

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beach house and look forward to more in the future. It was beautifully decorated as well as landscaped.The living room has a very open feeling with a fireplace on one side and a lovely view of the pool on the other. The kitchen is stocked with every conceivable gadget you would ever need.The bedrooms and baths are attractive, comfortable and clean. The beach, shopping center and restaurants are a 5 minute's drive away.This beach house is charming inside and out and the owners are a delight to work with.

We have stayed at this lovely home twice, and VRBO pictures are very accurate. The location is great - About 1/2 mile walk to the beach, and across the street from the fitness center and the tennis facility. The house is beautifully decorated and wonderfully maintained - It is decorated for permanent occupation, not with cheap furnishings as in some rentals. It is perfect for families or for having visits from friends. There is plenty of space, and the master bedroom is on the first floor, at the opposite end of the house from the second floor guest bedrooms. The owners are very responsive to questions - They will be happy to recommend restaurants in Fernandina Beach (about a 10-15 minute drive), and there are some excellent ones to choose from. We especially like Espana. There is also a large supermarket, a movie theatre and a gym nearby, as well as plenty of casual food places.
We will return to the house, and recommend it very highly!

Perfect is the word to describe our vacation to this spacious, comfortable house. Our family loved having the pool and soothing waterfall right outside the door, as well as the separate study where the children could go and watch DVDs and TV so we could have "grown up" time in the family room. We would sit for hours on the lanai by the pool in the large wicker rockers and lounge chairs. Toddler alarms on all the doors made us very comfortable with the little ones around.
This quiet house is exactly as it looks in the photos. We especially enjoyed cooking in the gourmet kitchen, talking with each other while cooking and watching TV in the family room. We were actually able to eat in the dining room and watch the children playing in and around the pool. Besides the kitchen being completely stocked, also available for our use were beach chairs and towels, children's toys, a child's strap-in booster seat, railings for our son's bed, lots of beach toys, puzzles, board games, etc.
When not relaxing at the house, we took a 5 minute walk (or 2 minute drive) to the beach. The fitness facility and the tennis courts are only a block away. AIP is everything we imagined--a safe, gated community great for walking, riding bikes, looking at the sunset at Walker's Landing---all under a gorgeous cool canopy of live oak trees. My four-year-old cried when we had to leave! We can't return soon enough!

Our family just returned from the best vacation we have ever had! We decided onAmelia Island for this summers reunion...8 of us including our 6 year old twins stayed at this gorgeous home. All the rest of the family stayed in various other homes, but ours was voted the BEST by far. So everyone congregated here. Great kitchen.....very well equipped. Spacious living areas! Nice beds, comfy pillows! Spotless bathrooms with nice towels...And our favorite thing was the pool! We could sit on the lanai and watch the kids as they had a ball splashing away! Amelia Island is beautiful and we definitely will come back here next summer!

This home is unbelievably gorgeous! Our month's stay was over all too quickly! We loved the pool with the waterfall! The kitchen is so well equipped. We cooked lobster, shrimp and scallops! We highly recommend this home and Amelia Island for a perfect vacation.

In July 1980, seven high school friends from Newnan, Georgia started getting together for a week of fun! Last year we came to Amelia Island and liked it so much, we decided to come back again this year. We found your house when we were here and rented it for this summer. It has been perfect for us. We are down to five now and it was the best house for us that we have ever rented. We especially enjoyed the nice pool and ALL of the bathrooms. This is really a great place. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
