About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Oceanfront Retreat • 2 King Suites • Private Balcony

Ketch a Wave’s Highlights:
• Oceanfront with Spacious Balcony
• 2 King Suites
• Full Kitchen
• Washer & Dryer
• On 2nd Floor
• Elevator Access
• Low Density Complex
• Pool (Not Heated)
• 1 Parking Spot (Complimentary)

When you stay at Ketch a Wave, you are booking directly with the owner rather than through a property manager. This allows us to keep fees minimal - only a cleaning fee, which goes directly to our cleaner, and VRBO’s standard service fee.

- Convenient Oceanfront Location -
Our condo is located in the Ketch Courtyard complex, which is about 5 miles from popular attractions such as Fort Clinch State Park and the historic downtown area. Just across the street, you will find a local favorite, The Surf Restaurant. If you’re hoping to enjoy Amelia Island’s beautiful beaches, just walk out the front door to the beach walkway that’s exclusively for Ketch Courtyard guests.

- Kitchen with a View -
One of the primary benefits of staying in a vacation condo rather than a hotel is having the ability to prepare your own meals, saving you money. You’ll appreciate our fully-equipped kitchen with all stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen is open-concept, allowing you to continue enjoying the wonderful ocean view while you prepare meals.

Beyond pots and pans and other kitchen essentials, we also provide
• Dishwasher Pods
• Dish Soap
• Paper Towel
• Garbage Bags

- Oceanfront, Restful Living Room -
After spending the day exploring Amelia Island, you can relax in our comfortable leather sofa or accent chair. There is a new flat screen TV with Comcast cable. If you want to dine in, there is a table for 4 plus additional barstool seating at the counter.

- Master Suite with Private Balcony Access -
In the master bedroom, you’ll find a new king size bed, a flat screen TV, and plenty of storage space in the walk-in closet. There is even access to the private, expansive, oceanfront deck through the sliding glass doors.

- Master Ensuite Bathroom -
The ensuite bathroom has a lovely antique white vanity with beadboard paneled doors. You’ll also find a beautifully tiled tub/shower combination.
The bathroom amenities we provide include:
• Shampoo and Conditioner
• Body Wash
• Blow Dryer
• Towels

- Second King Bedroom -
In the second bedroom, you’ll find a king bed, 2 night stands, a flat scrren TV and a spacious walk-in closet with plenty of storage. There is also a door leading from the bedroom into the second bathroom, creating an option for a private ensuite by locking the second/hallway door.

- Second Bathroom -
Our second bathroom is accessible from the second bedroom and the hallway. It is very similar to the master bathroom, just a bit smaller.

- Laundry Room, Not Laundry Closet -
One of the things that drew me to our condo was the fact it has a dedicated room for laundry, rather than just a closet. Above the washer and dryer, you’ll find additional shelving for storage. In the laundry room, we provide:
• Laundry Detergent
• Beach Towels

- Ketch Courtyard Pool -
When you stay as our guest, you’ll have access to Ketch Courtyard’s private pool.

- Guest Access –
• The keyless entry allows for convenient self check-in and easy coming and going for all guests.
• Parking is located directly in front of the complex and is free. You are able to park one car in the Ketch Courtyard lot (strictly enforced).

- Interaction with Guests –
Prior to your check-in, I will send pertinent information to you, such as the WiFi password, pool door code, keyless entry code, and a detailed list of items we provide. Should any questions or concerns arise, you can easily contact me through VRBO messaging.

Great location. Place was nice. Comfy bed. Loved the beach chairs. Few things to maybe fix is sliding glass door to porch was hard to open and close. Needed two hands as it feels like it’s going to come off track. Coffee table would be nice also as no where to put drink or food. Little things like salt would have been nice but place is clean and convenient. Very peaceful

The view was lovely. However, the main slider was either broken or off track, so the only way we could access the balcony was through the master bedroom. The condo was clean and functional. But if you plan to cook anything, you will need your own pots, the ones in the condo are so scratched that they would be dangerous to use.

We had a fabulous stay in this unit. We love Ketch Courtyard and this unit is one of the best 2br we have stayed in. They have thought of everything you would need/want in a vacation condo at the beach. The owner is very responsive to any questions. We will definitely stay here again when we return to Amelia Island.
