Everything was very clean and bed was comfy. Didn’t get to enjoy the beach other than a quick walk down the private pier. Nicely appointed and great communication with owner. Location was ideal and close to everything we needed on the island. Would love to stay here again.

Brenda’s place was fantastic! We loved being close to the beach and she had everything we needed. (Beach towels, kids toys, umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards, etc). It was so nice not to have to pack all of those things.

This was hands down the best experience I’ve had with VRBO. The host, Brenda, made everything super easy, and the space was furnished with everything you possibly could need … plenty of paper products, linens, beach gear (including a cooler!), kitchen ware, etc. I stayed in the 2 BR unit, which was spacious and nicely furnished, both inside and out. The photos don’t do justice to how lovely this unit is. Brenda was a delightful host, and I highly recommend this listing. I hope to return next year.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Platt

Host profile image
Jim and Brenda Platt - We are retired from long careers in telecommunications and have traveled extensively in the US and abroad. We've been many beautiful places but, to us, none are as beautiful as Amelia Island. The island still has the small town feel and people are friendly and helpful. Nature thrives on Amelia!

Why they chose this property

Amelia Island is a unspoiled barrier island with pristine beaches, thrilling wildlife and the most charming Victorian village in the South.

What makes this property unique

Quiet evenings with silver moonlit seas. Wonderful sunrises. Beach that is never crowded. Flocks of pelicans, waterbirds and dolphins. Our property is located in a residential area away from the commercial feel of condos and hotels.
