Welcome to Amelia Island, ranked No.3 in Conde Nast Travel magazine's Readers Choice Awards 2022 for top islands in the United States!
This unique, French coastal private residence is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, adjacent to the luxurious Omni Amelia Island Hotel and Conference Center.
As part of this verdant beachside community, our home is nestled in amongst uniquely windswept live oaks and southern magnolias with miles of private trails and paved paths extending in all directions, right outside the front door... AND you are just a short 6-minute walk from one of the most beautiful beaches in Florida.
This amazing family home has something for everybody: lounge on oversized sofas and play a variety of board games (provided); stream the latest movie or favorite show on the living room's wide screen Smart TV (with cable); appreciate a quiet moment in one of our four spacious ensuite bedrooms; read a book on a private side deck; prepare dinner in the fully equipped kitchen and serve it in style; grill some delicious local Mayport shrimp on the outdoor BBQ under the glow of the patio lights; share a meal on the screened-in porch (patio heater in wintertime, ceiling fan in the summer); listen to the ocean breeze caress the palmetto fronds; watch the evening sky and warm yourself by the firepit (firewood provided); observe red cardinals swooping onto the birdfeeder; walk along the 13 miles of white sand searching for pre-historic sharks' teeth (best at low tide); cast a line off of Aury Island and try to catch a wide-mouth bass; discover the sunken forest and the ancient Timucuan burial mound; bike to Drummond Point for a game of ping pong or pickleball; watch the sun set over the marshes at Walker's Landing; visit the hands-on Nature Center; play putt-putt golf on the Shoppes center; wander over to Marche Burette (5 minute walk) for an ice cream and check out the shops, spa and restaurants along the way; drive the golf cart through the maritime forest to the beach for a day full of sun and surf....
Inside the house, you will find everything you need to make your stay as easy as possible: pots and pans, lots of dishes and serving vessels, glasses for all occasions, paper products, soft linens, 2 twin airbeds, a Pack 'n Play Graco crib with sheets and baby blanket, fluffy bath towels, oversized beach towels, fast WiFi, multiple Smart TVs (Roku), Ecowater filter at the kitchen sink and a Brita pitcher (no need for bottled water), candles and so much more.
In the garage, you will find room to park 2 cars, an electric golf cart, at least 4 adult bikes and 4 kids bikes, helmets, beach chairs, a cooler and an assortment of beach toys and boards.
The house layout is on one floor and aside from the 3 steps leading to the front door, it is wheelchair friendly. The stairs in the dining room lead to the homeowner's private loft space.
VRBO states that this house sleeps 10, which is the maximum number of people allowed in the rental, but we only sleep 8 people in beds. Finally, although this property has a lot to offer, there is no access to a pool. We are very proud of our 5-star rating and our high cleanliness reviews. We are also striving to be a sustainable rental, so please recyle and use towels economically.
We are happy to welcome one 4-legged member of the family for a fee of $75 per stay; please check the pet box when you make the reservation.
You will be given your own access code that will also work for both the front door and the garage.
We trust you will enjoy yourselves as much as we have over the past 20 years. Amelia Island is truly unique in so many ways! Take advantage of Instant Booking to reserve today!
