Spacious 3 Bed / 3.5 Bath Shipwatch Villa with Ocean Views
Introducing 1362 Shipwatch, a breathtaking 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom condo boasting lovely renovations, most recently including kitchen, dining area, and main bedroom upgrades in 2023. The two-level oceanfront villa has a spacious living room, dining room, and kitchen combination that is perfect for entertaining or family gatherings. It even has a built-in wet bar located just off the kitchen and living area. The large balcony overlooks the ocean and green space in the Shipwatch Villas, a nicely manicured complex in the exclusive, gated Amelia Island Plantation community.
Guests will enjoy the property's incredibly convenient location, which provides easy access to dune-swept beaches, the Shipwatch complex pool (heated in the winter months), and a cookout area for picnicking.
All three bedrooms have full private baths and are located on the downstairs level, offering peace and quiet apart from the main living space for those travelers who like to sleep longer than their loved ones on their beach getaway.
The main bedroom has a king bed, flat-screen TV, and full attached bathroom with a renovated, walk-in shower. The second bedroom is very similar, providing a second main suite for couples traveling together. It has a king bed, flat-screen TV, and full attached bathroom as well, with a separate vanity for getting ready outside of the water closet with the walk-in shower.
For families needing a bathtub, the third bedroom has a tub/shower combination in the attached bathroom and two double beds with a flat-screen TV as well. For your convenience, there is a laundry area on the downstairs level with a LG HE washer and dryer.
All fresh bed linens are provided for our guests, along with bath and beach towels. Cable and high-speed wifi access are complimentary.
When it is time for meals, the fully-equipped kitchen has all major appliances, necessary cookware, and new dinnerware, flatware, and glassware. Beautiful water views are served all day while guests prep and fix their plates.
The perfect place for your Amelia Island beachside retreat, 1362 Shipwatch invites you to relax, listen to the waves hitting the shore, and feel the ocean breeze. Wake up in paradise and spend the day lounging in the sand or beside the spacious, well-designed Shipwatch pool.
Guests can also enjoy the miles of walking and biking trails in the Amelia Island Plantation (AIP.) This sprawling 1,340-acre gated community is surrounded by maritime forests, tidal salt marshes and pristine, sandy beaches.
Dining, shopping, and spa services are offered nearby at the Omni Amelia Island Resort, located within the AIP. The closest golf courses are Little Sandy and Oak Marsh but there are many other nice courses in the area.
As part of this rental, a custom digital guestbook is provided with thorough property information and a local area guide sharing our favorite restaurants, attractions, and more! Excitingly, our guests are also eligible to receive a 15% discount on beach gear rentals.
We look forward to hearing from you and helping plan your visit to Amelia Island and this beautifully renovated Shipwatch villa!

Wonderful! We love receiving this feedback as our goal is always to have everything perfect for our guests so you can truly kick back and relax on your vacation. Thanks for sharing and we hope you will return to be our guest again soon!
We absolutely loved our stay here! Plenty of room for my parents, my husband and me, and our two children (7 and 12). Close to pool and beach and was stocked with everything you would need. Would stay here again for sure!

Thanks so much for sharing, Amy. This is fabulous to hear! It would be our pleasure to welcome your family back again. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you are planning another Amelia Island vacation!
Loved our stay! The condo is both beautiful and comfortable to stay in and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked and the outdoor grill and picnic area were super convenient to walk to. The view was incredible, shower pressure and temperature perfect, beds were nice….loved the key code entry so we didn’t have to worry about keeping up with keys all the time! Safe and friendly atmosphere all around.

Many thanks for your 5-star review of our property, 1362 Shipwatch! We are happy you enjoyed both the location and the unit itself. As for the oven, we wanted to follow up and let you know our team did troubleshoot it following your departure and it worked well. Please know that you are always welcome to reach out during your stay and we can come out sooner to address anything like this and either coach you or put your mind at ease accordingly. Thanks again for being our guest!
Plus: Beautifully furnished unit. Great location. Short walk to the beach. Shorter walk to very nice swimming pool. Minus: Advertised beach chairs/umbrella/sand toys were not available so we bought them and left behind for future guests. No response from management regarding alarm beeping in locked room under one of the bedrooms during our one week stay.

We are glad to hear that overall you enjoyed your first stay with us! The owners have spent a lot of time updating and refurnishing their property, so we are happy you found the furnishings to be beautiful. Yes, the condo is ideally located within Shipwatch for accessing the clean beach and the community pool, which is seasonally heated. Thanks for your honest feedback on your "minuses" too. We combed through our listing and do not see anywhere we advertise specific beach equipment. Our company provides beach/pool towels but does not guarantee any specific accessories or chairs. The owner does currently allow guests to access their storage closet tucked beneath the building (information provided to all guests in a digital guestbook) and we wonder if you checked that during your visit. You're welcome to use any available beach chairs and other equipment that are stored there. As for that bothersome alarm, our office shows we did receive one call from you about the beeping and our team immediately notified the Shipwatch Community Association Manager. We did not hear from you or any of our other guests in that building, so we assumed the beeping was resolved. In the future, please feel free to reach out to us again if it's ongoing, as our team takes any and all maintenance requests very seriously. Thanks again for being our guest and we hope you will consider staying with us again in the future!
This spacious condo is stunningly decorated with an excellent layout. The 2 floor design separates sleeping from living quarters to accommodate different sleep schedules. The condo is well appointed and conveniently located to area amenities. The view is beautiful and peaceful. The beach is broad and chairs and umbrellas are available to rent. The island has so much to offer for outdoor activities, restaurants and shops.Be aware this is a first and second floor condo and includes steps to get to the condo and between floors within the condo. Also, there are many steps to get to the beach, so this is not a good choice for those with mobility issues or with lots to cart to the beach. And there is no bathroom at the pool, for those with little ones. Overall, an outstanding choice for a family beach vacation.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback! We are happy to hear that you felt our Shipwatch condo was spacious, beautifully decorated, well appointed, and outstanding overall! For future reference, there is a community bathroom located on the ground floor of Building C near the pool. We note that in our digital guest guidebook but perhaps we could post it somewhere else too. Thanks again for being our guest and we hope to host you again someday!
We loved this condo but have a few recommendations. Please add a top lock to the doors that go outside, my two year old could open the door and walk right out of the building which is very scary. The outdoor furniture is great for teenagers and adults, they are very high and my kids couldnt come on patio b.c they tried to climb on it and then they would have easily fallen over the balcony. There were no extra blankets. It would have been nice to have. Pluses - loved the layout, there were games for adults and kids to play, TVs in every room which was amazing, big TV in family room. Air fryer! And, there were about 6-8 beach chairs, boogey boards and umbrellas which was amazing, you should list all this as amenities as people love that stuff. We would definitely come back!

We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback on your spring stay at our newer listing, 1362 Shipwatch! Our Destination Amelia team agrees that our condo has a great layout and is well equipped! We love hearing that you definitely want to come back. As for your recommendations, we can see how those items would make the unit more little-kid friendly. Our owners will consider these suggestions and in the meantime, we invite parents of littles to send us any additional questions. Thanks again for choosing to be our guest!
