The rental was beautiful and the location could not be better! We really appreciated the quick response from you all and Dustin when we could not get things to work. We loved our stay. Thank you for a great vacation!
This property was beautifully decorated, clean and modern. It is steps away from the beach and an excellent restaurant. Such a quaint downtown. Highly recommend.

Wonderful stay at Ocean View Villas
Unit was beautiful, nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. We went with two couples, plenty of room, would be a nice place for families. Short walk to the beach and park area, short drive into town. Nice to have two dedicated parking spaces, would definitely stay there again!
Beautiful location, extremely clean and convenient.
You have everything you need and including plenty of room for family and relaxation. The hosts made everything comfortable and the property is beautifully decorated and complete. We were there for a death in the family and returning back to the condo in the evening was comfortable and restful. Thank you!
We stayed at the property for 4 nights. The check in/check out process was super easy. Communication with the property management staff was excellent. We loved the location - close to the beach, but not too close! Everything we needed to make our stay great was available.

Very good communication. Apartment was clean and well organized
We absolutely LOVE this rental. It was for a surprise birthday weekend. We walked in and felt at home. it's well kept, comfortable, and like home. We will be looking forward to staying here again.
I honestly can't find anything that could have been improved upon here. I stayed with my husband and three older sons. The unit was spacious, clean and so welcoming. It's so close to the beach and two casual restaurants. We would absolutely rent here again. It was also a great value.
Great space for a gathering of women. The unit was very clean, modern and had everything we needed. The location was perfect - walkable to the main beach and restaurants there and an easy drive to the town of Fernandina for shopping, dining and exploring the riverfront and the historic area. Communication with the owners about access, etc. went smoothly. Everyone wants to go back and stay there again.
House very clean and tastefully furnished. Lots of dishes, cooking utensils, nice appliances. Great location , ocean view, 3 minute walk to beach, deer and gofer tortoise outside our patio. Short walk to Salt Life restaurant. Loved the gated parking. Immediate response from maintenance when one garage door opener didn’t work.
He really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean. Everything we needed in the kitchen was provided. Would stay there again. The bets were just fine. I was a little nervous. They might be too firm, but they were fine. The only thing I could say I would’ve liked a little bit more comfortable pillow, but besides that it was a wonderful place to stay.

Girls Trip
Ocean View Villas 1B was a perfect spot for our girls trip. We had teenagers to 70 with us and it was a great fit. The size of the villa, location to beach, restaurants and the historic district was ideal. The villa also had beach chairs, towels and the essentials (coffee, toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags...) ready for us at arrival. Communication was great, but we never really needed anything. Only negative was the AC was hard to manage...either really cold or nothing was coming out and the skate park nearby was a little loud, neither of these would keep me from returning. All in all, great location and the finishes inside the villa were perfect for what we needed.
My friends and I take a girl’s trip every year and decided to take a quiet beach trip this year. This property had everything we were looking for. It was clean, comfortable, and centrally located. A few steps to the beach (we highly recommend you reserve chairs and umbrellas through the rental service…it was lovely jsut showing up and having it all set up for us). We had fabulous meals in the downtown area and also jsut enjoyed the porch for hours. The house is fully stocked and accommodated us so well. Yes, the beds are firm, but it didn’t bother us at all! Greta communication with Stacie and a Greta experience overall.
Everything was great. Very clean, well appointed. Quiet location. Located right next to a State Park, so watching deer was pretty cool.

Great Location
The location is great. You can walk to the beach, restaurants, the nature park, shopping and more. The unit is fantastic with open floor plan, very clean, tastefully decorated, well-appointed with all you need and most importantly for us quiet. One nice perk as well is the parking garage. Highly recommend the stay at his villa.
We had a wonderful experience and the perfect get away at Amelia Island! The condo was very spacious, extremely clean and wonderfully updated! The location right across from the beach couldn’t have been any better! We loved our time here!
Such a wonderful property right off the beach and near Ft. Clinch nature park. Within 2 miles of charming,
historic downtown Fernandina Beach. Stacy was an amazing host and communication was excellent! Will definitely come again!
Most everything was great about this place. Location, cleanliness, etc. My only downside was the king mattress was a little firm for me; although my fiancé’ liked it:). You can’t go wrong renting this place!
