About this property

Breathtaking Ocean Views from Turtle Dunes at Amelia Island Plantation!

Enjoy Ocean Views from Living Area, Primary Bedroom, Private Balcony!

From the moment you roll your luggage across the threshold into 1844 Turtle Dunes, the ocean views will take your breath away! The blue of the sky will pale above the alluring colors of the ocean waves. Come kick your feet up on your private balcony facing the Atlantic Ocean, watch the tides coming in and out, and keep your eyes peeled for dolphins, manatees, or North Atlantic Right Whales.

1844 Turtle Dunes is perfect for a family vacation or a couple looking to get away! Designed to be practical and beautiful, the oceanfront condo is equipped with everything a modern traveler would need, including high speed WiFi and TVs in the living room and both bedrooms.

With a king bed in the main suite and two twin beds in the second bedroom, there are sleeping accommodations for four. Both full bathrooms are nicely updated and stocked with bath linens.

The kitchen, which overlooks the living area and the amazing ocean views, is fully equipped with appliances, cooking utensils, silverware, glassware, placeware, and so on. Guests can enjoy mealtime at the dining table, which seats four.

Time to take a swim? This property provides access to the beautiful and spacious Sea Turtle shared pool, which is seasonally heated. The property also awards entry to the Dunes Club tennis courts.

In front and behind the Turtle Dunes complex, guests can access the many walking trails in the Amelia Island Plantation (AIP.) These picturesque trails wind through the oceanside and marshside of the gated resort. The AIP community is a beloved 1,340-acre paradise that is surrounded by maritime forests, tidal salt marshes and pristine, sandy beaches. Dining, shopping, and spa services are offered at the Omni Amelia Island Resort, located within the AIP.

Golf is also available within the AIP at Oak Marsh and Little Sandy, as well as multiple other great courses on the island. Tee times can be scheduled online.

Nearby, bike and golf carts can be rented to explore the larger community and venture to community playgrounds like Drummond Park and Aury Island.

Historic Downtown Fernandina Beach is a 20-minute drive north on the island and has fantastic dining and shopping options. Driving south on A1A will take you to the Talbot Islands, wonderful nature preserves known for gentle hiking and excellent birding opportunities.

As part of this rental, a custom digital guidebook is provided with thorough property information and our local area guide sharing favorite restaurants, attractions, and more! Excitingly, our guests are also eligible to receive a 15% discount on beach gear rentals. This villa truly is the whole package, both inside and out!

We look forward to hearing from you and helping you plan your trip to this idyllic Amelia Island condo!

*Please be advised this private property is not a rental through the Omni Amelia Island Resort and does not give you access to "resort privileges or amenities” (i.e. the main Omni hotel pool, fitness center or shuttle service), and Racquet Park is limited only to club members and their guests. We will gladly answer any questions about area activities and our amenities!

Great location

This is the second time we have stayed at Turtle Dunes and both times have been satisfactory. We have used Vrbo many times and have always been satisfied.The presentation of the condo on the website was accurate. This condo was a little smaller but we had plenty of room. The kitchen was small but we did not do a lot of cooking . Location and view were great. The furniture and beds were comfortable. It was very clean . Thought the price was a little high for the size of the condo and the furnishings. We willl come back to Turtle Dunes

Great Thanksgiving Holiday

The property was exactly as described in the rental ad. Everything was clean and orderly. The view is amazing just high enough to see the ocean clearly. The local restaurants were 5 star, Bar Zin and the Verandah. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen and had everything we needed. A couple of suggestion, invest in some regular size silverware the 70’s onyx handle utensil were a bit off. Also, the cooling heating system worked but the air inside was very humid as if the unit was not working correctly. Finally, with the onset of so must technology the outlets were not sufficient to charge iPads, iPhones, EarPods, and computers. Maybe a couple of multi-chargers on the end tables and night stands. Thanks for sharing your home away from home.
