Excellent Stay at the Coral Cottage

We had a great time during our stay at the Coral Cottage. Laura was wonderful host, and her place had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We didn't expect all the great beach gear to be supplied, including a huge cart! This made the short walk to the beach all the better. We look forward to future stays at the Coral Cottage.

Perfect!

We had a lovely time on our getaway in this lovely condo/townhome. It’s well located just blocks from the beach. It’s also a short walk to a park and two decent restaurants. It was beautifully updated and well equipped for our needs (we stay in for a lot of simple-to-prepare meals.) If we decide to visit Amelia Island again, we will be back to this “cottage.”

Cozy cottage blocks from the beach!

We had a wonderful stay and were impressed with the coastal design of the cottage, close proximity to the beach, and short car ride to the charming downtown area. The cottage had all the amenities and extras, everything to make us feel at home. Loved the coffee bar too! We are already thinking about our next trip back!

Great short stay

Check in was easy; it was nicely tended. The supplies available were very helpful especially for a short weekend. It meant we didn’t need to run out to the store when we already had limited time.

We loved this place and will stay again BUT MY HUSBAND didn't put in the right dates. We thought we had it until Sunday They showed up to clean because they had another family show up they went out of the help me and I'm so thankful for them. I had 2 dogs and alot of luggage and no car because my husband was fishing. They loaded up their car and took us to another hotel. If you want someone who cares about your stay these are who you want to deal with. All i can say is THANK YOU

Weekend Retreat

I spent only two nights at the property, but enjoyed everything about it. It was quiet, clean, comfortable, cozy. It facilitated a nice opportunity to visit with out-of-town family member, prepare meals, and enjoy a happy hour on the patio. Proximity to beach access was also so convenient. Thank you!

Perfect beach getaway

When you step into this condo the first impression is positive. It looks even better in person and so clean (lovely fragrance and spotless). Laura has considered every detail that a guest might need including basic cooking staples along with coffee and snacks. Beach gear is provided too and the beach is only a short walk. Fernandina Beach is very dog friendly so our dog had great beach walks too. We were totally comfortable here and would be happy to return!
