Amelia Island Florida Vacation Rentals |
Amelia Island Rental Description:
Our Fernandina Shores Condominium is a relaxing getaway! Located on the quiet and picturesque north end of Amelia Island, the condo is 2 blocks from the beach yet only minutes (1.5 miles) from downtown Fernandina Beach. Enjoy the beach without the higher costs of beach front rentals. Excellent location!
The unit borders Fort Clinch State Park to the West, with the ocean nearby to your North and East so there is only vehicle access from the South thus no through traffic. Great neighborhood having a large natural beach area with dunes. Main Beach is also nearby for those of you who prefer a more populated beach with lifeguards.
The condo is approximately 1,200 sq ft in size with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. It has two balconies; one balcony directly off the living/dining area (facing the ocean to your east) and the other a small private balcony outside the master bedroom facing a natural area of Fort Clinch State Park (in the background of the picture to the rear of the unit). The condo is an end unit on the second floor which gives you a little extra breathing room and privacy compared to most of the units in the complex. Within the complex are tennis courts and a swimming pool.
It is fully furnished and equipped. The master bedroom has a queen-size bed and connecting bathroom with walk-in shower. The second bedroom has a day bed with trundle and the third bedroom has a twin bed, with both bedrooms sharing an adjacent bathroom with tub and shower. The unit also has a full kitchen with appliances and a laundry closet with a washer and dryer.
Considered by many as one of Florida's best well guarded secrets, Amelia Island is known for its 13 miles of beautiful and tranquil beaches. There is also golf, tennis, boating and fishing.Amelia Island is the southernmost barrier island on the US Atlantic coast. Cumberland Island with wild horses is nearby as well as other barrier islands offering great natural settings and recreational activities. This area in Florida's northeast corner has been named one of the top 12 vacation destinations by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
You can watch the gorgeous sunsets at the downtown Fernandina Beach Harbor Marina while watching the shrimp boats come in and the fisherman weigh their catch for the day.
If you're a water-lover, try surf fishing on the beach or fishing in the salt marshes and oyster beds along the river, go for a sail or paddle a kayak.
For the history buff, Amelia Island offers an abundance of attractions. Stroll through downtown Fernandina Beach which is 40 blocks of historic homes and businesses. There is also Fort Clinch bordering the condominium, a living pre-civil war landmark that offers tours and re-enactments of life in the mid 1800’s as well as great hiking trails and a spectacular pier.
Come visit us and Amelia Island. But be careful, you may not want to leave! We would love to have you as our guest!
Here is a review by one of our recent guests. We can't say it any better!
"My husband and three children stayed here last summer. It was the first time any of us had been to Florida, and we fell in love with Amelia Island. This condo was convenient to beach, downtown, dining, the whole nine yards actually! It was nice, quiet, clean, and very affordable! On our first trip in June 2007, we took a day trip to SeaWorld and had a blast! We toured Fort Clinch, shopped and dined in downtown Fernandina, and found 99 sharks teeth on the beach! Our second trip in August was just as wonderful! We took a daytrip to Neptune Beach, rode the ferry, and visited Little Talbot Island! Which is a must see! It is absolute paradise, a breath taking site to behold! We definitely will be back for many more years to come!" Proctorville, Ohio
