Fernandina Beach, Florida
Escape to the Amelia Island with the entire family or group of friends and experience the island life in this like-new beautiful beach home. This gorgeous home is centrally located- 1.5 miles (4 minute drive) from the beach, 2 miles from Historic Downtown Fernandina Beach, and close to grocery stores, restaurants, bars, parks, and shopping. You will love this spacious and private destination home on our little island!
We had a great time with family and the communication with the owner was wonderful. She was very quick to respond but there were a few issues. First, the renters before us had an excessive amount of trash. There was nowhere for us to put trash. We had to contact the owner (who already knew) and come up with a solution. Owner had to bring extra bin and get it dumped. Had to buy and replace fan remote batteries in living room. There were ants in the upstairs bathroom coming from the pocket door. There was poison ivy all along the front walk so we could not really use the entrance safely. Kitchen did not have enough utensils to really cook if you wanted. House is a new build and nice. The powder room door is very hard to stay closed. There really wasn’t enough seating in dining and living room to accommodate all of the people the house could sleep. Overall, house is nice but needs a little more attention to detail. Very thankful for the communication with owner. We had a nice time and loved Amelia Island.
Our disappointment centers around this home being inadequately equipped and furnished. The upstairs has three bedrooms that are set up for sleeping 12 people and not a single chair to sit on if you wanted to watch tv. Each room has only beds, a tv, and an inexpensive small nightstand. There is no place to set your suitcase down to unpack except the floor or the bed. There is a 4th bedroom up there that is completely empty. There are no wash clothes or hand towels and the tub drained so slow that we couldn't use it. The Main bedroom on the 1st floor is no longer furnished as it shows in the photograph. The only items in that bedroom are, the bed, 2 small flimsy night stands and a TV. Again no chair(s) or sofa as shown. Speaking with the hosts Brittany and Savannah, and their willingness to bring some of their own furniture, is what kept us from contacting VRBO as I feel this home is misrepresented by the listing and the photo's. Beds for 14, place settings for 8? Seating at the dining room table for 4, Seating in the Living room for 6 (really good friends). Outdoor seating for 4. No can opener, pots and pans that were so dirty and rusty (Cuisinart), that we had to clean thoroughly before using. The downstairs bathroom had one sink that also didn't drain and the other had black mold around the drain. The garbage disposal rattles, sounding as if it's going to spit it's contents back at you. I am also disappointed in the previous visitors for not telling you what I am. Theres mor
Home is beautiful and new
We were very happy with this home. Plenty of room for 3 couples. Close to everything. Wish the weather was better, didn’t get to go to the beach due to hurricane Nicole, but we made the best of it. Home could use a full length mirror, iron and ironing board, and blow dryer.
Property was easy and very reasonable to rent for the weekend.
