    The unit was clean, well stocked and very comfortable. The Platt’s were awesome hosts and very responsive with ant inquiries. Close to the center of everything. Our only complaint is the vacation ended.

    Right on the beach by private walkway. We were disappointed in that we could not reserve it for next year. Everything was as described---well provisioned, lots of outside areas to sit, and very cozy. Wonderful hosts--helped us out in a couple of emergencies. Amelia Island is a real gem, we have never seen a place with so many wonderful restaurants. Wish we could stay here again--

    Brenda & Jim were most friendly and all communication before we arrived was excellent. Everything about the whole trip was so well planned from them - great instructions, how to get there, what to do when you get there. Unit was clean as a whistle. To top it off, nothing like staying right on Fernandina Beach. Walking that boardwalk over the dunes to get to one of the most beautiful beaches in the USA. Chester, our 13 lb. red toy poodle was totally welcomed. He made so many friends on the beach. Every morning he nudged us as if to say....are you ready, can we go now? He was on his retractable leash and having a ball. Everyone stopped to pet him. His tail wagged. His tongue hanging, being a happy dog. He wants to go back. We will. We also walked the neighborhood and Chester made friends with 3 other dogs down the block. The picture of the beach is exactly how it is and NEVER, EVER crowded. It is heavenly. Thank you to Jim & Brenda. The best! (p.s. we had the two bedroom unit...mostly so we could have 2 bathrooms - worked out great for the 2 of us).

    This Vrbo is a GEM. The space was perfect for us and our little dog. We enjoyed using the kitchen. It was well stocked with most of the things you would need to cook and serve with. The living space was comfortable and the tv service was easy to use. The WiFi was exceptional. We loved the private beach access - such a treat! We enjoyed the porch / patio area also and even enjoyed some meals outside as well as some naps. Our host was amazing. She was friendly, quick with responses, and so accommodating. And, as an interesting surprise, we discovered she’s also an accomplished artist! Many of the paintings in the unit were created by her. You could tell that this unit was furnished and decorated with care and thought behind it, with the turtle theme. During our stay we saw dune bunnies and gopher turtles in the backyard! So serene! We are already planning our next stay!

    This was hands down the best experience I’ve had with VRBO. The host, Brenda, made everything super easy, and the space was furnished with everything you possibly could need … plenty of paper products, linens, beach gear (including a cooler!), kitchen ware, etc. I stayed in the 2 BR unit, which was spacious and nicely furnished, both inside and out. The photos don’t do justice to how lovely this unit is. Brenda was a delightful host, and I highly recommend this listing. I hope to return next year.

    Cute house on beach with 3 units. Ours was on bottom with 2 bedrooms. Wide porch and backyard that you share with other unit with a partition between. Lots of seating outside to enjoy the views and brand new walk way to beach. Our unit was so cute and stocked with all you can need or what you forgot !! The 5 of us and 2 small dogs enjoyed it and had washer & dryer and beach towels. Owners live upstairs and both units downstairs are pet friendly …. We took turns going outside and made it work. Great short spring break trip!

    Every year my husband and I go fishing with my daughter’s family. Found this spot a couple of years ago, and was lucky enough to snag both units this year. We had the 1 bedroom, they had the adjoining 2 bedroom - was perfection. Big deck for relaxing and dinning - private walkway to the beach - truly could not have asked for anything more perfect. Sadly we cannot book for next year, as it is already booked. Hosts were great to communicate with.

Ample linens, blankets and towels. Kitchen appliances and helps complete. Bright welcoming beachy decor, natural light, slider doors and huge patio outdoor furnishings. The ocean is calling, sea gulls screeching, pelicans plunge, gopher turtles sun themselves. Our spaniel was welcomed!
