We provide tennis racquets, beach chairs, and beach towels so you can take full advantage of these amenities.

Amelia Surf and Racquet Club is a great complex, I agree! With the beautifully kept grounds, swimming pools, and tennis courts, it feels like a resort. I would love to host you again! - Michelle
We stayed in this wonderful property for my wife’s birthday. The unit was everything we needed…updated, clean, comfortably furnished, well-equipped…and the views of the ocean were exactly what we look for in a beach rental…spent lots of time on the balcony enjoying the views and relaxing to the wonderful sound of those waves. The host was great in her communication and responsive to our questions. Perfect for a couples getaway!!!

I genuinely appreciate you being a repeat guest, Mary! It's wonderful to hear that you found the condo to be clean and well-stocked, as this is certainly our goal. I'd love to host you for a 3rd stay. - Michelle
The condo was spotless, very well appointed and had all the touches i could have wanted. Well stocked for the two of us. Really specific instructions. Great location to beach and restaurants. We would 100% stay there again. Mornings and evenings chilling in those big yellow chairs was the icing on the cake. Thanx for a great vacay!!

Your review makes me smile, Bud. My husband & I call those "big yellow chairs" our lifeguard chairs. We love being able to see the expansive Atlantic Ocean views over the balcony railing. It sounds like you loved this too. I would happily welcome you back! - Michelle
The home was everything we had hoped for. My husband is disabled so it is hard or him to go to the beach. Being able to sit on the couch and watch the waves rolling in was just as great! We woke up to beautiful sunrises from the bed. The home had everything you needed to enjoy a nice and relaxing trip. The kitchen had ample supplies. The check in process was easyThere is a handicap ramp where you can drive your car onto the beach next door. . Harris Teeter is 5 minutes away. It has many quick meal options. There are several local restaurants to visit as well. We had a fantastic time and hope to return again.

This review truly means the world to me. I, too, have a disability that impacts every area of my life, including travel. One of my primary goals with my vacation rentals is to make the entire process as stress free as possible (because life is already stressful enough!). I'm delighted to hear you and your husband were able to fully enjoy the beach and the island itself. Please come back anytime! - Michelle
Thank you for the 5-star review, Drue. I'm so glad to hear the condo worked out nicely for your spring stay. Please come again! - Michelle

Hi! I'm Michelle - mother of 2 teens (yikes), wife of 21 years, and retired special education teacher. Those who know me best know that 2 of my favorite hobbies are traveling and researching travel destinations. About 5 years ago, I was blessed to stumble upon Amelia Island - a place where I can walk along a pristine, uncrowded beach for miles. I am grateful to now share this gem with you.
