My wife and children (ages 9, 7, and 1) spent four nights at this property and absolutely loved it. It's right on the water with convenient access to a pool, beach, and various Omni resort offerings. We want to come back!
Enjoyed stay, easy access to events. Will rent again.

We rented this condo on Amelia Island in August, 2026, and it was by far the worst vacation rental experience we've ever had.Upon arrival, we found the balcony door wide open, which had allowed bugs to get into the unit. We soon discovered why: the balcony door lock is badly rusted, and the door can't be properly closed unless it's locked - which is difficult to do. This is clearly an entry point for pests and needs to be repaired.The unit itself was not clean. There was significant dust buildup in every corner and under all the furniture, and the furniture is outdated and in poor condition - it badly needs to be replaced.Most alarming: we found two large dead cockroaches in one of the bedrooms upon arrival. Over the course of our stay, we killed live cockroaches every single day, in every room, but especially the kitchen and living area. The infestation was severe enough that roaches were active even during the daytime. At one point, a roach fell onto my wife's back while she was sleeping.We were extremely disappointed, especially given the cost of the rental. This property needs a serious pest control intervention and a deep cleaning before it should be rented to anyone again. We will not be staying here - or anywhere near this unit - again, and we can't recommend it to other travelers.

This two-bedroom condo is one of our most popular and we are disappointed to see the remarks of this guest. These units are treated by their owners on a quarterly basis for pests and this one had had its regular treatment recently. If a renter finds bugs, and we are advised, which we were not, we would call Nader's Pest Raiders to address it immediately. Our housekeepers average 20-plus years of experience and go to great lengths to clean each property prior to any arrivals, and then they're inspected by a supervisor. As for the balcony door open and roaches, north Florida has had extensive rainfall and heat this year and the wood cockroaches have been resilient, and often renters will open the doors for ocean air and these pests come flying in. We caution about that to every renter who chooses to stay anywhere in Florida, ket alone in an oceanside resort. In 9 years of managing this particular property, we have never had anyone complain about cleanliness or pests, and if they would and advised us accordingly, we would immediately rectify or move them into another property. We were never contacted by this renter regarding these or any other issues, which is unfortunate in that it impacted their stay. These comments are not consistent with the numerous renters who have stayed in this unit this year or in years past.
This property is the perfect. The two room and shared living and kitchen space is the ideal set up and location for two families or one large family The kitchen is well stocked with essentials, the beach is close and easily accessible, and the pool is an added bonus.
Everything was exactly as described. Loved having 2 beds in each room. It was also nice that there were beach chairs and boogie boards there for us to use. The best part is being beachfront! We would definitely love to visit again.
School got out and 5 educators wanted a low key trip to unwind. This place gave us exactly that! Great location, the beach was beautiful, and the resort was so nice! The condo was perfect for us!
Had a great week on Amelia Island, unit has a great view and location. Very close to the Omini so you can dine without having to drive. Very comfortable stay and would recommend this unit
My mom and I had a great mother/daughter weekend at this beautiful condo.
Very comfortable for us with a pretty view.
Would absolutely stay here again.
We had the best stay here. The kitchen and the bathrooms were well furnished. The bedrooms were cozy, and enjoying the view of the ocean from the balconies was therapeutic.
We will definitely be back!
