There are so many delicious restaurants in Fernandina. SaltLife and Sandbar are within walking distance. Play a round of putt-putt at the course between the restaurants. Enjoy a snowcone or ice cream on the stroll home.

Lovely stay

My family loved this house! We had a blast! The pool was so much fun! Also, having that wonderful convenient access to the beach was amazing. It made it super easy for the kiddos to come to the house for a nap.You will love communicating with Amy. She really wants you to have a good time. Very close to downtown area as well. We had a wonderful stay.

Family vacation

We rented both upstairs and downstairs for our stay. Plenty of room for the 6 of us gals! The pool was amazing and we spent most of our time there. Easy walk to the beach as well. 7-10 min drive to dining and shopping. The hostess, Amy, was absolutely amazing and very accommodating. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect house for a big family

Check in Process: The check in process was amazing. You receive the code right before arrival and you walk right in. We had no issues.Communication with property manager: The communication was amazing. We had a few questions along the way, and received a response almost immediately. We did have an issue with the ac upon arrival, but we had someone at the house within 30 minutes. Location of Home: The location is extremely close to the resturants and shops in downtown. Grocery stores and the Dollar General are less than 10 minutes away. Best of all, you are right across from the beach! You are able to look at the ocean from your bedroom or livingroom while relaxing.Overall the home was perfect for our family. There is an upstairs and downstairs that is separated. Both the upstairs and downstairs have full kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. They are fully stocked and provide you everything you need including utensils, plates, cooking supplies, towels, etc. The outside of the house was under renovation, but the inside was what mattered the most. The pool outside was the most used area and probably the best part of the house. It is surrounded by a fence, therefore we had plenty of privacy. It was a heated pool, so my family really loved that! I highly recommend staying here!

Perfect getaway

Enjoyable stay for a large group. The property was comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Even though it was cold we were able to use the heated pool. The beach was just a short walk. There were many nice restaurants just a short drive to get to. The host was friendly and highly responsive.

Getaway

The proximity to the beach and view of the ocean is a HUGE win for this property. Open the curtain in the bedroom and the living room and you have a terrific view of the sea. There is a small balcony on which you can sit and enjoy. In the back of the house there is a lovely pool surrounded with nice landscaping and comfy loungers. The beds are quite comfy and the decor is eclectic and fun. There were nice amenities in the small, but sufficient kitchen. Large TVs were great for watching movies in the living room or larger bedroom. The appearance of the home could use a facelift. A bit tired and unkempt, which was deceiving since inside was quite lovely. One update for inside would be to update the floors as they seem to be raising. There was a good bit of noise due to construction next door that soured the relaxing moments by the pool or during the day, but that’s uncontrollable. Any time I reached out with a question we got a friendly, quick response. Helpful, informative and nice. We did have an uninvited guest (pest” that somehow survived the exterminator treatment. We shared Thai info and had a very prompt reply and the issue was addressed. Florida has a fair share of these creepy crawlers, unfortunately.

Hotel stay would have been easier

Check in process is nerve racking. Felt like we were trying to “get away” with something. We were coming in for a wedding and were told we could not even have people drop by if they were not on the rental agreement, really created a stressful situation and paranoia. Also, you can hear EVERYTHING from the apartment upstairs at all hours. Insulation is nearly non existent from road noise and upstairs tenants, so just be prepared. Lastly read the details check out is 10am, very early for a VRBO and again just created an extra stress for what should have been a delightful weekend of memories at the beach with family and friends.

Perfect Getaway Location

Amenities are as described/pictured with many thoughtful touches. Appliances are updated, beds are COMFY, shower water stays hot and the water pressure is strong! Host provides comfortable beach chairs and quality beach towels too. The shore is truly just a couple steps away and there's restaurants, putt putt, snow-cone cart, public park, and a beach shop within a short, comfortable walking distance. Only thing I'd note for drivers, the driveway is STEEP and if your vehicle is low like mine (Altima) you need to turn in via a right hand turn versus a left to avoid scraping. Initially google maps leads you in and has you make a left turn into the property...take a loop and come in the other way and you're good to go. Locals are super friendly and there are dozens of things to do that are just a short drive away. I'm already day-dreaming about returning soon for my next get away!!
