Historic downtown Fernandina (covering a 50-block area) is full of charm, gas lanterns, and 19th buildings. Even some cobblestones. And the shrimp boats which have defined our heritage for hundreds of years are still here and serving us daily. Side by side with the charter boats (fishing and sightseeing excursion opportunities abound). There are even pelicans at the right time of year. The beaches aren't crowded. And traffic is a non-issue. Heaven!

  • Our family of 6 stayed here for my sister's wedding this past weekend. It was just perfect. Nice amount of room. Great balcony/deck. Nice pool in complex. Short walk to great beach. Close to all downtown Fernandina beach activities. Deb was a pleasure to deal with, very accomodating. Loved that there were few knick knacks, just room for all our things.

  • My family stayed at G2 for the week of July 4th. Everything was just as described by Deb. Loved emailing and talking with Deb before, during, and after our stay. She is very helpful, and the townhouse was very comfortable and clean. My family had a blast at the beach, can not wait till next summer!! Take care Deb.

  • This is a great location for a beach vacation. The unit is very clean, comfortable, and convenient. Everything we needed was provided, right down to beach chairs, towels, and even toys for our grandchildren. I would highly recommend this unit to other families.

  • Being a teacher, I am locked into a specific week at spring break. This year our plans were very last minute and we needed to piece together 4 days at one propery followed by three nights in G2. I was not looking forward to having to move midweek, but Deb was so nice to let us move in early so that we would not be "homeless" for 4 hours. We were looking at property this week and found the broadband connection invaluable and the comfortable chairs all with their own lighting a great help. Our little dog was very at home there. One thing that I don't think shows up in the pictures nearly as nice as it is - the deck! It is the width of the unit and quite sunny in the morning. There are 4 chairs and a small table out there. Beach chairs come in all shapes and sizes. The ones in the closet are nice, complete with carrying bags. We usually stay oceanfront, but we didn't feel at all deprived at this property. I tried out the pool and our dog enjoyed getting out of the sand for some walks on the grassy grounds. We walked to Dairy Queen, Shoneys, and of course, the beach. This is, in my opinion, the best part of the beach for long walks. Enjoy!

  • Guest Comment entered by Homeowner:
    The folks who are spending the winter in our unit don't have a computer, and they never plan to own one, so they won't be submitting a comment. But, they assure me that they love it. This is their second winter and they have already signed up for next year. I keep asking: "Are you sure you have everything you need? The answer is always Yes. "Is there anything I need do, or add, or change?" And the answer is always No. I won't submit their long list of accolades. Their repeated re-renting kinda' speaks for itself, don't you think?

  • This is a great location. For those that don't want the overdeveloped beaches but do want to enjoy peaceful and relaxing times, you've found it. The townhome is wonderful; the location is quiet, private, and peaceful; and the beach is truly just a few minutes away. We truly enjoyed our stay because the home is very nice and is all promised in the ad and more. Ms. Powers is such a pleasure to work with; very patient and helpful - our best experience by far on VRBO so far and we've done several. Thank you Deb!!, including the local cuisine recommendations. We'll definitely be back -- and be looking to stay here!

  • We had a wonderful time on our first vacation to Amelia Island and can't wait to go back! The location of your lovely townhome was perfect and we enjoyed being centrally located as we explored the island. The flexibility with the check-in and check-out times was perfect for traveling with our dogs. We all enjoyed the short walk to the gorgeous beach! We will definitely return!

  • What a great weekend we had!! Combining two families together in one place was so much fun! And we had all the comforts of home. The townhome was charming, clean and very comfortable!! The kitchen was equipped well enough to cook meals instead of eating out all the time. Even the queen sofa bed was a good nights sleep for grandmother!!

  • My wife and I stayed here for a weekend anniversary retreat. Deborah was a delight to work with, and VERY accomodating in arranging everything for us as we made our plans last minute. Also, flexibility with check-in/check-out times was a great help! And the price is VERY reasonable! The place is very cozy and well-appointed... we felt right at home. Quite, private, just the place we needed for relaxing and just being together. And for me (the early riser), the short walk to the beach with a cup of coffee to watch the sunrise was great. After two nights together, we DID let our FOUR BOYS (ages 1 - 9) crash our party and join us for the last night of our stay. They loved it, and we spent a wonderful day at the lovely beach. A great stay; would certainly do it again (and probably will!).
