The Island Estate! Heated Salt Pool/Spa On The St John’s River! 9 Min To Beach!

We had a wonderful much needed family gathering at this beautiful property for my youngest autistic grandson's spring break and birthday celebration. The house and property couldn't have been more perfect, and the communication and consideration of the guest needs from the amazing host Maghen was over and above anything we have experienced at a VRBO property before! Starting with the birthday sign and treats left by Maghen, to the spotless clean house, the extremely comfortable beds to the wonderful outside spaces and the dock. The game room and home gym were used for playing and watching movies, the dock was where you could find my oldest 23-year-old grandson enjoying the nice fishing rods and bait provided by the house along with some great pool lounges and toys. The hammocks were extremely popular on the dock, and the kitchen was used to prepare most meals as we had about everything we needed there. I would be remiss if I did not talk about the sunsets and dolphin watching off the dock in the evenings. We were lucky enough to be there as a family to watch the Artemis lift off from the top of the dock followed by the full pink moon and hundreds of dolphins the last evening we were there. We saw dolphins every night, but the size of the pods under the full moon was breathtaking. Many wonderful experiences and memories were made at this beautiful, comfortable property! We will definitely be back!

The house was just as presented! Very clean and comfortable! Meghan was so accommodating and went out of her way to make our stay extra special. A great place to stay with indoor pool, hot tub, ping pong table etc!

Everything about our experience at The Island Estate was perfect. This home had beautiful decor, plenty of room for everyone for meals and for relaxing, well-stocked kitchen with many extra amenities, comfortable clean bedrooms and baths, and fantastic outdoor spaces, including a great pool and hot tub, and a massive dock area where we enjoyed the spectacular views of both sunrise and sunset, as well as dolphins and ships cruising past. We even witnessed a sea turtle swim up to the dock supports. Our host, Maghen, was wonderful. We entered and saw huge Welcome basket and precious personalized sign, and felt immediately at home. She told us about all of the outdoor accessories for our use and where to find them in the house. She also offered great tips on local restaurants, beaches, activities, groceries and delivery services. This home met, then quickly surpassed, our expectations. We would love to stay here again.

The amenities on the lanai were excellent. Family really enjoyed the hot tub, pool and lounging areas

Fabulous! First, we were welcomed by a beautiful sign for the whole family. Then a delicious charcuterie board was delivered! The house is beautiful with the most comfortable beds! It rained for 2 days and the kids spent all the time in the pool as it was covered. There were great pool toys there and a big float the kids loved. We loved sitting around the pool with all the comfortable seating. The house was perfect for our family! The kids loved the bunk bedroom and game room too! Great sitting areas for the whole family. We had a chef come in one night for my big birthday celebration and it was perfect. We all loved the house, and everyone wants to go back.Maghen was a great communicator. She checked in to make sure everything was going well. She told us that she had plenty of baby stuff for our 3-month-old. And she sure did! The house had everything you could ask for. It is so comfortable and perfect for families to be together.We went to the Jacksonville Zoo which is so close one day and it was so fun. I highly recommend this house for any gathering. Maghen was a joy to work with-we had to add an extra day due to our flight cancellation, and she was so accommodating and helpful. It was truly a magical weekend for me and my family.

Amazing host, sparkling clean home

Great home and location, would go again in a minute.

The house was immaculate. We spent most of the time out by the pool playing games and watching ships go by. It was very entertaining. The kitchen is a cook's kitchen. We did a few outings to Amelia Island which is not far away. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you Meghan!

The house worked well for our family which included several generations. The enclosed pool was great, it allowed us to be outside without the insects. We encountered several maintenance issues with the house while there. The response from the owner was very fast and the issues were quickly taken care of. We had a good week.

We really had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful home and it was perfect for all my family that were coming in from out of state for my son' wedding. Meghan was great to answer any questions promptly and the welcome gift was a nice touch. Only complaint is the house is much older than the photos from the advertisement listing and the there was very little water pressure in the bathrooms. This became very difficult at night when everyone needed a shower before going to bed. The home defiantly needs some updating...

Beautiful home with upgraded amenities on the water! Very spacious, convenient get away with everything you can think of! Thoroughly enjoyed this home and will stay again next time in Jacksonville.

Highly recommend this luxurious house with every amenity you and your family could need. Conveniently located and private enough for a peaceful getaway. My family and I are definitely planning to return to this paradise in Jacksonville. Owners communicated well and are very hospitable. Check in was a breeze. A can’t miss stay!
