Amelia Island - Amelia by the Sea Private Fishing Pier, Tennis Courts

Heads up! Our building is getting its final round of updates to make sure everything stays safe, attractive, and comfortable for the long haul. Most of what’s left involves painting the exterior and balconies, plus a few finishing touches in shared spaces like the stairwells. You might see workers around or hear some daytime noise, but it should be much quieter than before.

Work will only happen Monday to Friday, from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM. Weekends are noise-free.

We really appreciate your patience, and we hope you enjoy your stay—and the building’s fresh new look!

The master bedroom has a King bed and a TV, but most of all, it has A Direct Ocean View.

All units at Amelia by the Sea have a direct ocean breeze blowing across the balcony and this unit is certainly no exception. You have a table and four chairs here for your comfort while you enjoy your morning coffee, lunch or dinner, or you just listen to the sound of the surf and seagulls as you watch the sunrise.

The 800 ft fishing pier is available to our guests and NO FISHING LICENSE is required when fishing from this private pier.

The condo itself was beautifully appointed and the rental company was very responsive when there were issues. The view was wonderful. Not a bad seat to be found to view the sunrise. And the proximity to one of the elevators (when they worked) could not be beat. Unfortunately, during our stay, there was constant construction, including one morning when I walked out to the living room in time to see workmen climbing onto the balcony. They were also outside our window blaring music and talking really loudly during nap time. Not the most restful trip. Though, I think it was a case of timing for out trip (early March).I can see that when the property was new, it must have been nice, but we had a few too many issues that a new paint job wasn't going to fix. Issues including no key cards when we arrived, no beach access until we got a hold of the general property manager (to his credit, he fixed the issue quickly), no elevator service for part of our stay (which was an issue for the eldest member of our party who requires ambulatory assistance), the aforementioned "visitors" on the balcony, a lack of good food nearby (personal opinion), and a general sense that the entire building may need to close for a more thorough building refurbishment without guests present.All this being said, we probably won't return but I believe that once all the work is complete, it will be a nice stay for another family.

Hurricane trip

We stayed the week of hurricane Debby. We spent a lot of time in the condo due to the weather. We loved the balcony and spent a lot of time watching spectacular lightening over the ocean at night and beautiful rainbows during the day. The condo was cozy, clean, and conveniently located. We loved it.

Girls Trip

We stayed for a girls weekend, 7 women. The location is great! The condo itself was a bit outdated. The pillows were horrible, no additional pillows or blankets provided. They provided minimal supplies such as TP, paper towels, only 1 garbage bag. The code for the pool gate changes and with no communication so we had to wait to get let back in from the beach. Will not choose this condo, unfortunately.

Memorial Day Weekend 2017

On Memorial Day weekend my husband & I take our two grown sons & their families to a different location. This year Amelia Island was our destination. We were very pleased with our accommodations on behalf that our two granddaughters under the age of 2 were with us. Your condo was an easy access to the beach and the rooms were big enough to set up a "pack & play" for them to sleep in. The only complain I would have is that there were not enough towels for a 3 bedroom/2 bath unit. However I would consider this condo a "redo" for our family.

Safe, beautiful beachfront lication

The property was very easy to navigate. The location was right on the ocean, with a private pool, private boardwalk to the beach and private large fishing pier. It kept it feeling very family friendly and we could always find a spot on the beach, very close to our boardwalk. This made it easy to run back and forth to the room. There were private tennis ball and pickleball courts (bring your own equipment). Parking was provided. There is a fun restaurant directly across the street and then another about 1/3 or 1/2 mile away. People respected quiet hours. We cooked in the room for our family group several times and found everything we needed.

Far From Good

The location of the property was good. However, the condo smelled musty, the toilet paper holder in the master bath was broken, there were scraps (8 feet in length) along the wall where the backs of chairs rubbed, the plaster on the ceiling was chipping off and the lounge chairs at the pool were missing supports so you fell through the holes when you sat down. We will not stay at this property again. It was too run down. Management needs to be more diligent in the upkeep of the condo and the overall property.

TV's in rooms did not work. one without a tv

We got the 3rd BR TV working by working on the cabling that was loose and replacing the batteries, but the master TV will only show one channel. The office could not help. The 2nd BR has no tv. When you are staying as a group of adults tv's in ea rooms help and that was somethng we were told this unit had. Beds are very firm so be prepared. Other than that the unit is very nice and we love Amelia by the Sea and the pier

Very nice condo

The condo was overall in really good shape. The Carpet in the master bedroom had a number of really big dirty spots and just needed replacing. The master bath shower door was really dirty with either dirt or mold. I think it just needs to be cleaned really well and the door to the shower replaced or deep cleaned. Neither sliding doors would lock. This was not a good situation with a 3 year old. Need to fix them. The rest of the condo was in excellent condition and we really enjoyed our stay

Potential to be great

The Amelia by the Sea facility was neat in that - although its exterior looks a little beat up - it has a very nice, clean pool; great beach access & views; nice tennis courts; is relatively secured, and - the cherry on top - is the private fishing pier. That was what made the trip for our family. In terms of the actual condo, it wasn't that it wasn't nice - it had a well equipped kitchen and nice furnishings, but it was the first time I have felt compelled, on vacation, to wash the floor. The owner had obviously had it cleaned, but they probably just need to get a new cleaning crew. After we settled into the condo that first night, I sat down and was surprised at how dirty the bottom of my feet were - and some of my kids. I looked more closely at the floor, and realized that it looked like it had been washed...but with dirty water. I'm not a super neat freak, but after that, I was just kind of on edge, which isn't a fun feeling when you're staying someplace. Not only did I go over the tile with cleaner, but I ended up running the vacuum too, and that also pulled up a fair amount. If this owner got a new cleaning crew and gave the place a deep, overall cleaning, it could be 4 star. The insult to injury was that the washing machine wasn't working (tho they did respond very promptly in trying (tho unsuccessfully before our departure) to get it repaired for us) and the showers needed some attention (2 re-grouts and the master shower-head was partly broken)...I know this starts to sound negative, but we DID have a nice time here - just wished it had been cleaner and that everything had been in working order.

Wonderful time, minor concerns

The location of the condo was fantastic! We enjoyed the view from the large balcony and utilized it every day and long into the night. Pool, pier and grounds were wonderful. The condo is spacious and the couch is very comfortable. The renovated bathrooms were lovely. However, we did have a few concerns. The communication between the owner, manager and renter was not as smooth as I have experienced in the past with the many VRBO rentals we have used. I had questions regarding the condo condition prior to our arrival which were not answered via email message as expected and we never heard from the owner after confirming the reservation in January. No phone contact for owner was available. The check in process was not clearly defined and not what we were told. We lacked confidence in it when we were told the keys would be left by the housekeeping staff in the drop box. After discussing this with the manager, we discovered that she was going to be out of town but did not tell us who to contact in case of problems until we asked. Thankfully we were able to get in the condo as instructed. There are some lighting issues in the condo. The kitchen ceiling light has a short in it or something because it may or may not come on. The light over the dining room table does not have a switch that we could find, you had to plug it in the outlet when you wanted to turn it on. Lightbulbs were available but the problems above were not corrected by lightbulb changes. TV instructions would be helpful. Note each bedroom does not have a TV as the condo description describes. It does say this under the entertainment part however. The condo is in need of painting but this is just aesthetics. There are no available cabinets to put food in, however the counter is large and we just placed everything out on the counter. The above issues did not hamper our wonderful vacation. As some of the concerns were mentioned in previous reviews, I feel they should be addressed by the owner/manager and this is why I detailed them here.

Enjoyed our stay!

We had a very enjoyable stay at this property. The private access to the beach and pier were wonderful. The property is a little bit older than what we could observe in the pictures. It has been remodeled, but still has some characteristics that show age. However, we didn’t mind that too much and were overall pleased with the accommodations. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
