Our family of 10 (6 adults, 4 children) stayed here in July 2025. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for our group. The kitchen was well stocked, and everyone loved the quick beach walk! The beach was not crowded, although the residents are allowed to drive on the beach in this area. It was quiet and relaxing. Downtown Fernandina Beach is about 20 minutes away with many restaurants and shopping. We all enjoyed our stay!
House is a great location and has a great view of the water. Inside was clean and updated. We had one issue with the AC, but maintenance responded immediately and fixed the issue asap.
Great house and location! Few minor things but would stay again! Great owners.
First glance everything looked just as pictured. Place was generally clean but in our opinion could have been cleaner. Seemed like whomever cleaned just did minimal things. AC wasn't working properly upstairs BUT the maintenance manager Joe was awesome to work with! Very kind and stayed on top of it to provide a solution. Owners were also very kind about the issues we had experienced. Honestly probably the first time we stayed somewhere that the owners and manager cared as much as they did. Would 100% recommend this property. They had beach chairs, an EZ Up, couple umbrellas, boogie boards, etc for the beach. Lots of baby items included. We had a fantastic time and would return for sure!!
We stayed in this home last year and came back because we really like the layout and location â it is ideal for families and close to everything. Unfortunately, this year the property showed more wear and lacked the level of maintenance we expected, especially at this price point. Several issues added up: a broken dryer handle, a leaking coffee maker, a tub handle that came off, a missing fan remote, and exposed screws on the back deck door that could be a safety concern. The upstairs fridge was too small for a large group, and a few fixtures (like a bench and toilet paper holder) were damaged.None of these ruined the trip, but the overall condition felt overlooked. With a little upkeep and attention, this home could return to the high standard it once had.
We spent two weeks at the property. The kitchen was fully stocked. Not a pot or utensil was missing that we would have needed. Eloise was great in our interactions when needed. Even after we left, and left something behind she got it shipped to us without hesitation. Overall a great place to stay.
We had a great family vacation at Pelican Landing. The house had several items that needed to be repaired and updated. The floors in the home were very clean upon check in. We only had one working vacumn that def. needed to be updated. The other one didn't work at all. One of the eyes on the stove remained on high and you couldn't use it to cook unless you wanted to burn what you were cooking. Eloise started out being very friendly, but after a few contacts was non-responsive which dissappointed me. This is not a property that we would stay at again. It may be what others are looking for, but it did not meet our standard of expectations for a VRBO stay.
We enjoyed ourselves and thought the house was perfect for our family. We had a very large private top floor. My son had a private room and bathroom on the bottom. My daughter and two kids had two rooms on the middle floor. Kitchen was well equipped and big enough to make our Thanksgiving dinner. Great beach access.
Very nice and well equipped for a relaxing vacation. Located right next to the beach access. The house had every thing we needed. The property manager was super friendly and very prompt with all the info we needed. Thebeach is beautiful
This is the 3rd time we have stayed at this property. We love this time of year as is quiet and the beach is beautiful.
We communicated a few times with Elosie...we had a few questions and she was quick to response and just lovely.
It's a special place.
We enjoyed our stay. The house is great and the location. I would prefer to be on an area of the beach where you canât drive so there isnât so much fishing around us. Other than that everything was great.
This is our second time staying in this house. It's on American Beachfront and is a quiet and pet friendly beach. A great place to just hang out and enjoy the ocean.
We had an excellent stay. There was construction going on while we were there which wouldâve been nice to know ahead of time but other than that we had a great time while we were there.
This is our second year renting this house. It is the perfect size for us- 6 adults and 2 kids. The kitchen is well stocked and the house has plenty of seating, bedrooms, towels- all of the things you need!
Our first visit to this area and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! The house is very nice and has room to spread out comfortably. Beds sleep well and master suite is nice and private! Weather was perfect and the property manger was quick to respond to any issues that arose. We would like to return next year!!!
The house is directly on the beach with a direct walkway over the dunes. American Beach is less popular than other parts of AI. Our dog had a great time chasing the birds on the beach. Highly recommended.
This was our 3rd stay at Pelican Landing and weâve always been very pleased with the house, itâs beautiful furniture and decorating, not to mention itâs great beach front location on American Beach. The property manager, Eloise, is amazing. She is competent, professional and handles issues immediately. Weâre booked again for next year. We give the house and the service we get there 5 stars. We canât wait to go back.
Solitude with nature are rare to find in today's 'hustle and bustle' world. Pelican Landing was purchased as a beach getaway for the owner's family who reside in Atlanta, GA. We invite you to enjoy our beach getaway!
