This property has everything a family could ask for! The proximity to the beach is unbeatable! And a heated pool in the backyard. The units are clean and comfortable. We loved our stay!
This is one of the best homes we have rented on Fernandina Beach! It has everything youâll need for your stay on Amelia Island. Plenty of space and privacy, beautiful view of the beach with private beach access, a fabulous new pool (which can be heated during cool weather and cooled during the heat of the summer) as well as an entertainment area. The host family goes through the trouble of making sure your stay is comfortable and fun.
I highly recommend you try to get on their calendar. We will definitely be returning.

We appreciate your staying with us and would be happy to host you again! Stay tuned for more upgrades for summer 2026!
Best reunion stay! We loved the property, all 7of us. The house was clean and well stocked, pool was a great gathering place, with chase lounges. Also, beach chairs provided to sit by ocean. The upstairs rental was perfect for our big meals and sitting on the porch watching the waves. Would definitely book again.
Having the two separate living areas worked very well for our family. The direct beach access was awesome. Owner was a pleasure to work with and we hope to return next summer.
Thank you so much for choosing our Sunshine's Happy Place for your birthday celebration! I'm glad the two living spaces and direct beach access worked well for your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we'd be delighted to welcome you back again!
This place was perfect for a two day vacation with the family. The place had everything you needed, from beach chairs, towels and game accessories. Would definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful stay! The host was super responsive to any questions we asked. The pool was great to hang out by and catch up. You couldn't ask for a better location! Super easy to access the beach and convenient to historic downtown Fernandina!
Amy is an amazing host with such a nice property. My family has stayed here 2 years in a row. It is a nice, clean and cozy place to stay! And its directly across from the beach!
Very comfortable and clean. Easy Beach Access. Enjoyed time around pool. Temperature was just right to swim. It was a great place to experience Fernandina Beach.
Great location. Owner was very responsive to any questions we had and worked very hard to make our weekend a great experience. Upgrades to the property are being made as we speak to make our next stay even more enjoyable. Owner very receptive to feedback and suggestions.
We rented both upstairs and downstairs for our stay. Plenty of room for the 6 of us gals! The pool was amazing and we spent most of our time there. Easy walk to the beach as well. 7-10 min drive to dining and shopping. The hostess, Amy, was absolutely amazing and very accommodating. We would definitely stay again.
Great location to car watch during car show week. Close to town and all the car shows / auctions. Nice place with plenty of parking and a nice patio to entertain on.
My family loved this house! We had a blast! The pool was so much fun! Also, having that wonderful convenient access to the beach was amazing. It made it super easy for the kiddos to come to the house for a nap.You will love communicating with Amy. She really wants you to have a good time. Very close to downtown area as well. We had a wonderful stay.
Had a great stay! House was close to beach, state park & the town. House was clean and was as described. Loved the ping pong table & we used the bbq a couple of times Thank You!!
I grew up traveling to Fernandina Beach as a child and fell in love, so naturally it was the beach sweet spot that we always gravitated to for vacation. We raised our children spending the summers playing in the afternoon tide pools, searching for shark teeth, walking down the beach to play putt putt, and picking out books at the BookLoft downtown to complete summer reading requirements. We have made so many special memories on Amelia Island and we hope that your family and friends will too!
Our dream came true to own a slice of heaven when we made our first Fernandina Beach purchase at 240/ 244 South Fletcher Avenue. This property at 551 South Fletcher Avenue is our 3rd property and it is very special. It is situated across the street from the beach but boasts beautiful views of the ocean from the upstairs deck. Get comfy in the cozy deck chair with a good book or settle in for a good nap! Our newest feature for this property is a beautiful swimming pool! Two waterfalls are a lovely backdrop spilling over the stone ledger wall.
We started construction on the swimming pool in January. We discovered after some research that there are not many homes with swimming pools on the beach rental market. This lot provided ample room for the pool and plenty of space to gather with friends and family. We allow up to 8 guests (including children) at all times.
