Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Robert and I are semi-retired and live on the Island in downtown Fernandina. Robert grew up in Jacksonville, so he was somewhat familiar with the Island, but we both really fell it love with it when we visited in the early 90's. We loved it so much, we would drive from Atlanta every other weekend - getting here late on Friday night and leaving for home early Sunday afternoon. When we crossed that bridge to the Island, it always felt like coming home. Our dream was to someday be able to make the Island our home. In 2002, we finally realized that dream and moved here full-time. We have two condos - a 1BR/1BA at the Surf & Racquet and a 2BR/2BA in Summer Beach Village (Sailmaker). We thoroughly enjoy managing our condos and we've have met so many wonderful people. We do our best to make our condo special to our guests - a place they would like to come often. Some have even gotten the itch to move here, too! We highly recommend it!

Absolutely Perfect Condo-Review from TravelAdvisor

Guest: Amy from Atlanta - From TravelAdvisor 9/21/11 (-)
Date of Stay: 08/13/11 Review Submitted: 09/21/11

My husband and I found this condo via Trip advisor and felt like it would be a good fit for us. We were so pleased with the condo itself. It is located on the southern end of the island which in our opinion is the more peaceful end. Our entire experience was lovely - Brenda made everything so easy for us and even provided an extremely helpful guide to the island including activities and restaurant reviews. We felt like we were staying in a relative's condo. The condo itself is just wonderful - on the ground floor so every morning we could just walk out of the patio doors and onto the beach. I cooked almost every meal in the well-equipped kitchen and even read a suspenseful Patricia Cornwell novel that was on the condo's bookshelf. I can't recommend renting with Brenda and her husband more. We had a great experience. · By AmyEllis42 from Atlanta, Georgia on 9/7/2011 for a stay in 8/1/2011

Brenda and Robert gave this place their full attention. We couldn't have been happier here. Close to everything yet removed enough to be peaceful. we wish they had been in charge of the weather also. some chilly days, but we'll be back.

We had a great time in Amelia Is!! Your condo was perfect! Very clean and the location was great!! We lived in the water (pool and ocean), did fishing, ate out some, saw the fort and witnessed some newly hatched sea turtles heading for the ocean. The boys loved the big waves!! Our flight to and from was so easy! We truly relaxed.

Me, my husband, our son, and my great nephew were down the week of June 13 thru June 20, 2009. It was very hot but it was wonderful. The condo was beautiful and the King Size bed slept like a dream. I have a bad back so this is a huge plus. The room has great access to the pool and beach. The boys slept on the queen sleep sofa and was fine. The whole experience was so nice. We saw dolphins many times in the water and I myself caught several whitings in the surf and one small shark. The water was the clearest I have ever seen it on the Atlantic Coast while we were there. We also visited Fort Clinch State Park and found many great shells and fished from the pier, where we say either man o wars or sting rays, not sure which. We also saw large ships which the kids loved while at Fort Clinch State Park. Our vacation was much needed and very enjoyed at this location and in this beautiful and very clean room. Brenda and her husband were a pleasure to work with. It seemed like things used to be when people trusted one another. Thank you for a wonderful vacation and all the suggestions. We will be back I am sure. Holly

Great Condo. Great Location.

Guest: A Family of 3 (Middle Georgia)
Date of Stay: 03/20/09 Review Submitted: 03/23/09

First, let me just say that Brenda makes you feel like you're part of the family. Having our 19 month old with us and a lush yard off of the patio was wonderful! The beach was only a few footsteps away, and you have a great view of the pool. Also, I'm convinced that the king size bed in the condo is the most comfortable bed I've slept in! Very spacious. The condo was stocked well with everything you need. This place beat my expectations by a mile!

My husband, 2 year old daughter and I stayed in Amelia Island at this condo for a week June 2008. We loved the location of the unit and the Surf & Racquet Club in general. The condo was clean and well stocked. The bed was very comfortable. There are 2 pools and 2 kids pools on the property. Brenda was extremely helpful and always available. The list of restaurants she gave us were a tremendous help. Our favorite restaurants were Barbara Jeans, Lulu's Bra and Grill, Cafe Karibo, Moon River Pizza and Arte's Pizza(although we had a horrible waitress here but the pizza was excellent). I would highly recommend this condo and Amelia Island/Fernandina Beach.

WE HAVE BEEN TO AMELIA ISLAND FOR MANY YEARS NOW AND THIS HAS BEEN BY FAR THE BEST CONDO THAT WE HAVE STAYED IN. THE OWNERS ALSO GAVE US A WONDERFUL LIST OF RESTAURANTS,SHOPPING AND ACTIVITIES TO DO. SEVERAL RESTAURANTS THAT I WOULD RECOMMEND ARE: LULU'S BRA AND GRILL, COSY,WONDERFUL FOOD. JOE'S 2ND ST. BISTRO AND BEECH ST. GRILL, BOTH HAVE WONDERFUL FOOD AND THE EMPLOYEES ARE VERY ATTENTIVE. ALSO THE RESTAURANT IN AMELIA ISLAND PLANTATION THAT SITS ON THE POND IS QUITE GOOD FOR LUNCH AND YOU CAN GET GROCERIES ALSO FOR THE CONDO.THERE ARE SOME WONDERFUL SHOPS IN THERE AND FERNANDINA BEACH IS GREAT.

We have stayed in this condo for our past 2 summer vacations, and we love it! We often long to visit for a Fall or Winter vacation too. The Surf and Racquet Club is quiet, well maintained, and perfect for families. This unit is spacious, well decorated, and immaculately clean! The ground floor is perfect for our children to play on the lawn just outside the patio. I can actulally cook supper in the kitchen, watch my kids play outside, and see the ocean in the distance. Both pools are nice and the boardwalk provides easy access to the beach. Robert and Brenda are very friendly and easy to work with. It is obvious they enjoy Amelia Island, and they take pride in their units. The list of restaurants Brenda provides is great! Our favorites she recommended are Barbara Jeans and Sandy Bottoms. We haven't tried any of the neat little restaurants she recommended in Fernindina Beach yet, but we hope to do that next time we visit. We knew the minute we arrived at the Surf and Racquet Club and entered this unit that we had found our family vacation spot for many years to come.
