We enjoyed our stay at Oceans of Amelia. The inside of the condo was nice and well kept. The outside could use a little TLC, but nothing major. We would definitely consider staying again.
The ocean is amazing in this spot. Lots of shells, fish, and dolphins! We saw a bunch of dolphins frolicking in the morning right from our balcony.
I do wish the check-out expectations were listed somewhere.
Overall everything was great. I did, however, feel like we had to outfit the condo a little more than usual -for instance there were two dishwasher pods for a four night stay. Batteries in the thermostat and remote controls -that sort of thing. still, no complaints.
We had a short but sweet stay here and would definitely recommend it! There is an elevator you can use, especially while moving in and out (masks required). They also have large shopping carts that you can borrow! We snuggled in and cooked all of our food during our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed! We brought our roku for movie nights. The beds were very comfortable. The beach was perfect! They have a very nice area to hose off when you come in. It felt safe to leave our beach stuff there like everyone else was doing. The kitchen sink started leaking during our 2 night stay. I dreaded having to wait for the plumber, but they made it so easy! They apologized profusely and said they preferred that we weren't there when the plumber came due to Covid. Perfect! It was fixed right away while we lounged on the beach. Be careful with the door leading to the unit. When you use your key to unlock both locks, the bottom (door knob) lock stays locked, making it easy to lock yourself out if you are going in and out. We unlocked the bottom lock and only used the deadbolt (except at night).
Wanted an ocean front condo to celebrate sisterâs 70th and 67th birthdays. It was perfect. Affordable Two bedrooms and Two bathrooms. We ate, shopped and sunbathed.â€ïž
Lots of issues. Before we arrived no one communicated with us about how to get into property, check in was at 4pm and had we not messaged at 4:30 we may have never heard anything from them at all on how to get inside. Once inside the TV didnât work and oĂr children were going stir crazy, at first they told us to wait until next day, but we had to press and finally someone came and fixed it. On check out they had a laundry list of cleanup they required, which included us carrying a full trash bag down three flights of stairs, across the parking lot and into a dumpster, leaving me wondering what in the world I paid a cleaning fee for??? Not only did we have to carry our luggage, manage our children but now we were left carrying a sticky trash bag 100âs of feet. The beach chairs were moldy, and there was a slight mold odor inside of the property. Horrible!!!
The size and location was perfect for our family (2 adults and 2 kids, ages 3 & 6). We lived in Fernandina Beach as newly-weds in 2012-13 and were excited to share this magical island with our children for the first time. It was a rainy weekend, but that didn't keep us from enjoying Fort Clinch, dinner at Timoti's, watching the boats at the marina, and of course, the beach and pool. The beds were comfortable, the unit was clean, and the kitchen was decently stocked. My kids loved watching the Olympics on cable tv (what a novelty for kids who only know streaming services) and learning how to boogie-board. It was exactly what we wanted for our family weekend away, and my 3 year old still talks about going to "the condo beach" over a month later. Thank you for a great stay!
We enjoyed the condo. The view was perfect. Kitchen well equipped (could use a few more small glasses). I enjoyed relaxing in the recliner. All in all a great stay.
Even with the work going on for the elevator it was peaceful. Beach area was beautiful and close to grocery and restaraunts. Will definitely recommend and stay again when we come back
