View looking miles down the beach from your oceanview cocktail table
Location: Amelia City, Amelia Island, Florida North East, Florida, USA (About 30 minutes from JAX, Jacksonville, FL Intl Airport) View Map
Accommodations: Condominium, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 4)
WHAT: A two-bedroom, two-bath condominium located directly on the broad and long quiet beach of this oceanfront resort. (Note that this unit actually has three bedrooms and three baths but we make it available some weeks for people wanting only two bedrooms. The two bedroom rate is lower and applies if guests agree to use two of the three bedrooms.)
WHERE: In the Amelia Surf and Racquet Club, on the sixth of a seven floor building, south end of the complex with unobstructed views both up and down Amelia Island.
WHY: Every bedroom has it's own bath giving privacy and independence to the occupants along with the space and convenience of a full kitchen, living room and dining room. Far more comfortable than renting two hotel rooms and located in the very desirable south end of Amelia Island. This is the optimum view unit in the entire Amelia Surf & Racquet Club complex because of teh high floor and south-end location with windows on both front and side rather than front-only.
DON'T MISS: Please be sure to click on the 360 degree Virtual Tour link down below on this page for a great tour. Just look below for the link labeled "CLICK HERE - for your 360 degree Virtual Tour." Also, please be sure to read guests' comments.
BEDROOMS: For guests renting this as a two bedroom unit, you have the choice of using two bedrooms (each with separate bath) from two bedrooms each with a king bed and one with twin beds.
When your family is ready to plan an extraordinary ocean front experience, this is the place to rent, as this unit has an extremely special location. The view from this 3 bedroom, 3 bath sixth floor, corner unit is panoramic in that it encompasses a view of miles of beach and ocean to both North and South. The sunrises and sunsets from this unit and patio are spectacular. The beach on the south end of Amelia Island where this Amelia Surf & Racquet Club is located is wide, uncrowded and is dotted with dunes and Sea Oats.
Looking down the beach from the unit, you will see the oceanfront Ritz-Carlton which is a short five minute stroll. With four tennis courts and two pools at Surf & Racquet Club, there is always something to do, whether it be swimming or just relaxing. However, it’s so cozy inside too, with elegant, comfortable furnishings.In addition, many mirror-covered doors add sparkle and light to the unit while reflecting the beautiful ocean views throughout. However, it's so cozy inside too, with elegant, comfortable furnishings.
Enjoy a quiet supper on the patio, overlooking the beach and waves, or try some of the great local restaurants.

The complex has two pools and four clay tennis courts. There are many great golf courses very close by, including one near the Ritz Carlton, just a five minute walk down the beach or road and others at the Plantation development on the Island.
Boating, fishing and all water sports may be found on the island, too. Antiquing in some of Amelia’s antique shops is popular as is strolling in the quaint Victorian downtown area. You will find many fine restaurants there and throughout the Island, as well.
A short boat trip to Cumberland Island, a place famous for it’s wild horses and the church where J.F. Kennedy Jr. was married, is a treat. Also, on Amelia Island is Fort Clinch, now a State Park, which is one of the most well-preserved 19th Century Forts in America. There are daily tours, hikes, fishing, and other activities.

Highest Guest Reviews at Surf and Racquet Club
Year Purchased: 1994
Why the Owner Chose Amelia City
In 1994, I stopped at Amelia Island while on my way to visit Hilton Head, and later realized how much more attractive I found Amelia with its quiet, wide, and beautiful beaches, and the charming old town of Fernandina Beach nearby. I was hooked on first glance by Unit C132 with its extraordinary south-end-of-property views at Amelia Surf and Racquet Club. I have enjoyed many visits to Amelia since then, and I am delighted to share this special place with you.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
We especially like the short 30 minute drive from Jacksonville Airport (considering that I live in California), the awesome veiws of the ocean and beach from my end-unit condominium, the broad and sparsely occupied beaches, and the general quaintness of the area. I usually eat meals in but guests leave many positive comments about the numerous restaurants nearby.
This excellent supermarket is just 0.7 miles from the Amelia Surf & Racquet Club.
The airport, JAX, is about thirty minutes drive from Amelia Island.

The links here to the owner e-mail and owner telephone actually go to Melissa, the very helpful property manager who handles all of the guest contacts for this property.
