Sea Escape Ocean Front Front

We have stayed in this house many times during our summer family trips to Fernandina Beach. It’s always the first place where we check availability and try to plan our beach trip accordingly. We love this house!! It’s not fancy, but always clean and feels so homey to us. We will continue to try and rent here each summer when possible!

It’s on the beach…this is the least expensive single family home on the beach…and as the saying goes…you get what you pay for. The minimal amount of old, grainy, low res pics should be the first clue. The second was when I asked the owner for more pics and didn’t get any. There was a reason why. While the property was clean from a dusted and swept perspective, everything is so old, worn, and in disrepair that you never felt “clean”. We put sheets on the furniture, pre-washed any dishes, and left our clothes in our suitcases. It’s obvious from family photos and decor that this was “mothers” beach house. The kitchen is a hodgepodge of plastic dishes, leftover food stores, and sticky everything. No dishwasher. The house has had a lot of water damage as the wall finishes are buckled, drywall joints are falling apart and the floor is so uneven you’d swear you were drunk walking on it. We only used one bedroom and my wife slept on the couch all week as the bed was so uncomfortable. The ceiling in one of the bedrooms has dropped to the point of almost falling in. It happens to be directly above one of the bunk beds…which the ceiling fan extends over the top bunk…I would never allow my kid to sleep up there. Watch out on the back deck! The wood is filled with splinters and nails and screw heads are sticking up. The cheap plastic furniture is only for those “skinny” people. The view is amazing though! The proximity to the beach is great, just a few steps and you are there!

My family loves this house. We have stayed here 5 times and we always check its availability when we plan our vacation. The location is ideal. We particularly love the back porch, the view of the beach, and the outdoor shower. It’s a very homey place and we always enjoy our stay!

We’ve stayed in this house several times. We like it because of its perfect location as well as the owner is very accommodating.

Perfect for our family of 5 to enjoy the beach.

Excellent property on the beach. We hope to return next year!

Perfect location and great little beach house. Air conditioning went stopped working during night - texted owner the next morning at 0645 with immediate response. Constant contact from owner about repair and was back up and running by lunch.

Beautiful place to stay, right on the beach!

This beach house was just perfect for a relaxing week at the beach. Right on the ocean with plenty of shopping and restaurants near by.

We absolutely enjoyed staying at Sea Escape for our family vacation! It was a perfect week! ☀️??⛱️?️
