Beautiful and tranquil beachside getaway!

We absolutely loved this beach house! Hard to find but we waved down instacart and Uber eats drivers! This place was absolutely perfect for our needs and had beautiful sunrises from our deck while drinking coffee in our pj’s! Walking distance to the Sandbar restaurant which we loved also and minutes by car to everywhere else! We will be back!

We love this place!

This is our second time staying here and we’ll definitely be back! It’s such a great location. Even on a holiday weekend, the place felt quiet and the beach was not crowded. It was a hot weekend, so the under deck area was a great retreat from the for the kids to play. And the upper deck is great for evenings in the summer. It was so nice to see the beach and sunrise from the deck. Great stay!

Great Location .. Basic Maintenance Neglected

Location is Great: right on the beach, at north end of island, close to Ft Clinch and close to town.Living Room furniture is comfortable and attractive. Internet and TV work well.Maintenance Issues: slider to deck is virtually opaque from broken seal, needs to be replaced; grill is unusable, needs to be replaced; heating/cooling units are poorly mounted, transmitting very loud vibrations into master bedroom.Despite these deficiencies, we enjoyed our stay. With a little TLC this property could be awesome.

Beautiful Location

Overall we were happy with our stay. Great location. Could use some decluttering in cabinets and on the front deck around the grill. As mentioned in the description it’s tight quarters in regards to closet space/drawers. No wine glasses or any glass cups. All plastic. This property looks like is up for sale so not sure if that matters to some.

Okay for the Most Part

Be prepared for very close quarters. It’s smaller than we imagined, and we were prepared for small. Updates inside are nice, and yes, the outside needs some TLC. I would have liked the interior to be tad cleaner when we arrived, but basically it was okay. Being on the beach, you can’t beat the location. However, I would opt for larger and newer on the other side of the street next time—especially with small children. This property would be best for two couples or families with older kids. I will say, however, the host was very responsive when we reached out.

Beach stay

The house was actually two separate spaces. Although is able to sleep 12, would be very tight with that many. There is a run-down house in front of this unit, which we thought at first was what we rented. Glad to figure out we were looking at the wrong building. Loved the outdoor porch but not crazy about having to go outside to get from upper and lower parts of the house. Also when we got there we had to fold a load of 3 sets of sheets that had been left in the dryer. That’s what we pay the cleaning fee for right?

Enjoyable vacation location

Overall our stay was good. Location was great. Right on the beach over the dune with a private walk way. Close to restaurants/bars with live music and a convenience store, beach shops and rentals, mini golf and a kids playground all in walking distance. It is also just a short drive do the downtown with lots of shops and restaurants. The property is well prepared for guests and we'll stocked. It is clear the owner wants guests to enjoy their stay. That said, the cleaning service left something to be desired. The floors were not clean at all with crumbs, sand and pet hair so we had to clean thoroughly. Also, the duvet covers on the beds appeared as though they had never been washed. We had to wash all bedding before we were comfortable sleeping in the beds and this literally lightened the color of the duvet covers multiple shades. That said, I think this is on the cleaning service and the property manager should pay close attention to the job they are doing. Once cleaned, the house was great.

Paradise

The property was easy to find and located as advertised. Being a dune away from the ocean was wonderful. At night you could not only see the ocean, but you could also hear the waves. It was so peaceful and calming out on the deck. The facility was as advertised with clean sheets and towels. There were no bugs noted on the property. Parking was well suited for three cars. All appliances were in good working order. The location, including the proximity to the beach and to the downtown was excellent. Fort Clinch State Park is also a short walk or bike ride away.The beach was not crowded and it was also very clean. I would encourage people to stay at this property for it is really a wonderful experience.

Fine property, strange experience

The property is very comfortable and a great location. When we arrived, we noticed the door was unlocked and upon closer inspection, realized the sliding (and ONLY) door didn’t have a lock at all. We contacted the owner and were told that the handle was broken 2 days prior, and they “did their best” to replace the handle, but acknowledged that they knew the door wouldn’t lock from the outside. I let them know the door also did not lock from the inside, and they literally told me to look for a stick to jam in the door. Wildly unacceptable, and since the upstairs couldn’t be secured, our choices were to only use the downstairs or not leave the property the entire vacation. A very bizarre experience. The home itself, assuming they fixed the door, is lovely, but the unprofessionalism was truly shocking.

Amazing

I was so happy with this property. We LOVED everything about it. The only thing we weren’t aware of is there are no inside stairs to downstairs. So it’s actually like two apartments instead of one house. We were going to put the kids down there but being so young, we weren’t comfortable without stairs. Not a huge deal at all. It was perfect in every other way! We will be booking again!

Wonderful accomodations! Great sunrise view!

Wonderful surprise! The view from the deck was amazing! Watched the sunrise every morning! It is beautifully decorated. It is not only ocean front but it is so close to Main Street Park and Fort Clinch State park. Also it is close to Historic Fernandino Beach shopping and dining. Communication with host was great! We actually stayed another day! Can not wait to visit again! Comfy beds made it a restful stay!
