"There's something about this house that has good vibes" is a comment we have received from previous guests. We are certain you will agree when you stay here. We built this house four years ago on a very quite cul de sac with every amenity that we wanted in our dream beach home. We came here to live with nature and found a piece of paradise like no other place on earth.
This is the PERFECT family house(toddler alarms on all doors). All main rooms on the lower level of the Nantucket-style house face the pool, which provides a calm oasis with sounds of the pool's waterfall right outside the doors. It is also perfect in the winter for those who want to escape the cold of our northern neighbors. A gas fireplace in the living room provides a homey ambience. One will find a canopy of live oaks throughout the entire plantation. The sun rises over the beautiful Atlantic and sets over the gorgeous marsh on the opposite side. Whether you come for a wonderful family vacation or a fun getaway with friends, we know you will not want to leave!
The home, tastefully furnished and designed for comfort to create the perfect vacation environment, includes: approximately 2,800 SF with 3 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms; master bedroom on the first floor with a king bed, two reading chairs, TV, and a
large walk-in closet; master bathroom with dual vanities, soaking tub and large separate shower; the 2nd bedroom with two double beds and its own separate bathroom; the 3rd bedroom with twin beds and its own separate bathroom; living room overlooks the pool with a 36" television with a surround sound system; study/media room and adjacent full bath also overlooks the pool. The study, if needed, has a futon which can be used as a 4th bedroom with adjoining full bath; ceiling fans in living room, study, side porch and all bedrooms; whole house sound including speakers on the lanai and around the pool; fully equipped gourmet kitchen with bar; dining room with table that seats 8 people; large laundry room with washer, dryer and laundry sink; one car garage plus ample extra parking; separate outdoor shower; pool with privacy fence. Sit on the lanai or relax in the hammock in the arbor by the pool and listen to the soothing sounds of the waterfall. On the opposite side of the house close to the kitchen is another private courtyard for grilling on the gas grill. All linens and beach towels are included. Beach chairs, boogey boards, children's sand toys are for your convenience. AIP amenity card is included during the high season- March through September.
Amenity card gives ACCESS ONLY to golf, tennis, fitness center, bike rentals, golf cart rental, tram, Kid's Camp,etc. Additional fees apply.

Why the Owner Chose Amelia Island Plantation
We visited Amelia many times before we built our home. We have both always wanted a pool, which we were able to have. This is a fabulous family house where we enjoy special times and holidays with our children and grandchildren and also many friends. We are unable to get to Amelia as much as we love it; therefore, we would like to share it with others and hope they enjoy it as much as we do.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The peace and quiet of our area and the soothing sound of the waterfall at the pool are a few things we really enjoy. We love to be able to walk to the beach and fitness center and the Village. Watching sunsets at Walker's Landing are also very enjoyable. Actually, there is nothing we don't enjoy at Amelia!!

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.
