About this apartment rental
Experience unforgettable moments with your family or friends in our serene and spacious condominium at Shipwatch Villas, located on the grounds of the prestigious Omni Amelia Island Resort in Amelia Island, Florida. Our fully renovated, 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom condo comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests, making it the perfect choice for your next vacation destination.
Shipwatch Villas is located on the ground of the Omni Amelia Island Resort.
Our condo is located within the beautiful setting of the Omni Amelia Island Resort. Our resort is an exclusive resort like no other, with over three miles of uncrowded beaches and countless waterways to discover. Quietly nestled among a great forest of live oaks, you’ll love exploring the numerous walking and bike paths. The Omni Resort offers a variety of shopping and restaurants within walking distance of our condo, and there’s even a miniature golf option set among the majestic live oaks. If you’re a nature lover, you’ll find an amazing variety of birds, turtles, crabs and even an occasional manatee sighting all in their natural habitat. Truly, an amazing location!
Our spacious 2nd floor condo is decorated and flows just like a home ~ to ensure that you feel comfortable during your vacation, and at the same time get that ‘I’m-in-a- luxurious-resort’ feeling! Master bedroom has a king sized bed with a large walk-in closet and spacious master bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen-sized bed with private bathroom and the third bedroom has 2 queen sized beds with its own bathroom also. Our condo sits in the south corner of the Villas, so it is filled with amazing ocean views: from the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, the breakfast area, as well as the master bedroom on the south side of the condo. Our Villa also overlooks relaxation area and green space. Our complex offers a seasonally heated pool. We have T.V.'s in each bedroom and the living room. Our condo includes comfortable towels and our sheets are high quality, so you will rest easy! The kitchen is fully stocked with any of your cooking needs and is equipped with a Keurig single cup coffee maker, a normal drip coffee pot, stove/oven, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator. We can add a Porta-Crib and high-chair ~ both upon request.
We try our best to keep beach chairs & umbrellas, small beach toys and other ‘beachy/pooly’ fun items in our condo’s storage closet for you to enjoy!
Please be aware that this complex does have an elevator but, when exiting the elevator, there are still about 5-7 stairs/steps to get to the actual floor where our condo door is located. We are not a handicap accessible complex.
I’m happy to be directly available for any and all needs you have during your stay. My goal is to provide quick-action and attention to you ~ so our cleaners, handymen, and other contractors are readily available, as they live on the island in case you need them.
We hope that you will feel valued and appreciated throughout your stay, and to ensure that you get the best experience, you will connect directly with me ~ you have my cell phone number to call for anything-even recommendations throughout your vacation.
This is perfect for a family occasion or special vacation. Truly a premier condo with amazing ocean views and close to all resort activities. Amelia Island was just ranked in the top 3 Islands in the Continental US by Travel and Leisure 2021! You won't be disappointed if you plan your vacation on Amelia Island. This rare opportunity is ready for you and your family to build lasting memories.
I would highly recommend travelers insurance to protect your vacation from any emergency.

This property is NOT a rental through Omni Amelia Island Resort and does not give you access to "resort privileges or amenities" like the main hotel pool and fitness center, and Racquet Park is only open to club members and their guests.

Our layout achieves any/all social-distancing practices that you desire. The condo’s front door entrances are located in an outdoor / open-air hallway. There are elevators, but there are also open-air stairwells that provide access to all floors, as well. There is no indoor closed-entrance or common area to be concerned with in light of Covid-19.

The stay was great. The condo was very nice and spacious. Great location. Would definitely come back to stay here again. The owner was very responsive when I had to ask a question. We had plenty of room for 8 adults.

Wonderful family vacation in a beautiful condo! Everything you need for a wonderful week at the beach! Communication was super- hostess was quick to response to any question/needs. Plenty of room for our whole family-we enjoyed watching the sunrise from the patio in the mornings and then playing cards at night at the table which fit our whole crew. My grandchildren and children are ready to go back-this was one of our favorite places to stay on Amelia Island so far!

We had our annual family reunion. 6 condos were rented throughout AIP.
Ours was by far the nicest!
We loved having access to beach chairs since our car was packed and we left ours at home.
We sat on the porch every morning for coffee and watching the sunrise.
I loved the lotion they had in the bathroom! Such a nice touch.
We loved every minute of our stay at AIP.
Thank you for making our week at the beach a 10!!!

This condo was the best place we've stayed at in Amelia Island. From the beds to the kitchen and the bathrooms, everything was really comfortable and updated. They had plenty of really fluffy bath towels along with really nice beach towels. The condo was outfitted with plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas. Even the bath tissues were really soft!:o) This place was amazing!!

My husband and I invited our daughter and her boyfriend and our son to join us for a long weekend. The set-up was fantastic and it was wonderful to have chairs, towels and umbrellas available.
Beds and furniture very comfortable.
We were happy no sharks got us!

Overall the condo itself was great! The complex is older but this unit is updated. The beds were soft. Kitchen was well stocked. Property owner is available via text and helpful. There were tommy Bahama beach chairs available for use and in good condition. It was nice that all rooms were on the same floor in the condo. However the walk to the beach is up and down a lot of stairs and is far which you should be aware of before booking. The pool was closer and very nice but we were wore out by the time we got to the beach. Deff wouldn’t stay at this particular property if you’re unable to walk far. You can’t take a beach wagon because there are too many sets of stairs. Once you make it out to the beach, it’s a huge beach area with alot of room.
10.0 / 10.0
Beautiful condo with all the amenities, great view, easy access to well kept pool and beach. I can’t think of a better, more relaxing place for our quick getaway weekend. We were there for the beach but it was an easy ride over to Fernandina Beach to enjoy the picturesque town center and eat some absolutely delicious food! We plan to be back!

We had a great family vacation at Amelia. The condo is in a great location, large and very comfortable. It had everything you need for a week at the beach.

What a special time with family at this beautiful and thoughtfully designed condo! The balcony views of the beach are so peaceful looking out over the well manicured landscape and dunes while the layout gives plenty of space for family and/or friends to be together! The owner gives accurate and detailed description of what is included when staying at Shipwatch. The owner's explanation answered all our questions about staying in a new place (Amelia Island) and affirmed our choice of staying at this condo and location!
We enjoyed the location of a 10-15 minute walk to many of the Omni activities and restaurants while having more privacy at the Shipwatch pool and beach area. This condo provides many beach chairs and towels and there is also additional chair/umbrella rentals if needed. There are bikes to rent nearby and the Par 3, 10 hole golf course is perfect for family fun! The condo provided supplies if you want to use the grilling area located near the pool.
This property is so clean and well maintained. Highly recommend this condo for your Amelia Island vacation and would definitely rent again!

This is the second time we have stayed at one of the condos at Shipwatch.
This condo was clean, spacious, and perfect for our needs. The location can't be beat. Owner communication was fantastic. We will come back!

Shipwatch is our groups’ favorite beach spot. The pool is fabulous and the beach is awesome. This condo is clean and tidy. But it’s not plush. Furnishings feel like a hotel, not a home.

We enjoyed our stay so much! Three generations of family with plenty of room and a thoughtful layout to stay comfortably. We enjoyed the pool. The weather was very windy during our week but the beach was beautiful. Michelle was extremely responsive… even ordering us a cooler to use for the beach and pool that arrived the following day. The property was clean, well appointed, and so beautiful. We hope to return!

The condo was a very nice place to stay. Everything was clean and neat. Will stay there again.

It was the perfect vacation rental for our family. The condo was very large and well equipped. It had a pack 'n play and booster seat for our 1 year old, and plenty of beach chairs and toys. The pool is right outside the condo and the beach was only short walk across the lawn and dunes. We definitely hope to return soon.

My family goes to Amelia Island annually and have stayed in the same building for years. It's older but this unit has been nicely remodeled with large kitchen and sitting area. It's new and clean. The beach and pool are easily accessible making it ideal. We had an issue with an inoperable dryer, but our host was very responsive and did her best. My only suggestion to the owners would be to upgrade the bedding. All of our guests were uncomfortable on very old beds. For a premium property of this nature, it makes all the difference. Otherwise, it's a great place and I'd recommend it.

We've stayed at the Amelia Island Plantation resort for 20 years and this was the best condo we've rented. The buildings are older and many condos haven't been updated but this one was remodeled. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. The view isn't as good as some other condos but you can still see the ocean. Very nice of the owner to supply beach towels and plenty of chairs. The kitchen table seating cushions and chairs should be cleaned or replaced but that was the only thing we noticed. We would definitely rent here again!
10.0 / 10.0
The location of this rental is pristine. Nestled inside the Omni plantation property, with a gorgeous view of the beach, and an excellent location with a beautiful pool and bbq area in front of the beach. The unit itself is also perfectly maintained with all amenities that you would need. It is gorgeous and clean. I love a clean, bright open kitchen with a view of the beach, and the kitchen had everything you would need if you wanted to prepare meals.
The owner was very communicative. The entry at the gate and to the unit was a breeze.
The closets in the spare bedrooms were locked, I assume for storing the owners personal belongings, which is completely understandable. May I suggest having a little hanging rack available in each bedroom so that the guests could have somewhere to hang up nice clothes if they wish. Otherwise, the accommodations were just perfect.
I do have two criticisms which were more administrative. I did not like being forced to take insurance or give a substantial refundable deposit. I take insurance if I’m traveling with a large group or with small children, but this time it was just my family and it wasn’t necessary and I didn’t like having to pay that large amount extra upfront.
I also paid a lot of fees for a 2 night stay through VRBO including a substantial cleaning fee so when it instructed us to wash the towels, run the dishwasher and strip the beds I didn’t appreciate that. I am a very respectful renter and probably would’ve done all those things anyway, but I didn’t like feeling obligated to do all of those things before a 10 AM check out in order to get my deposit back
Overall, I love this property and I will return to it because it was beautiful and relaxing.

The condo was very spacious, seemed even larger than the pictures showed. We had my husband and I, along with our son, his wife and grandkids age 2 & 4. The condo was clean and nicely renovated. The master bed was very comfortable, an issue we have struggled with in other rentals. We had an issue with the blender the first morning and by evening a new one was delivered to our door! Greatly appreciated as we use one everyday. There were plenty of beach chairs and toys. We had some great family time and made sweet memories - Thank you!

We were a group of six (3 couples) from Savannah looking for a getaway weekend not too far away. Everyone loved the condo. Very well appointed and so nice not to have to fight over bedrooms each had a king or queen. Loved the porch looking out to the Atlantic with the sound of the surf. Our only glitch was lack of wifi and tv: there was an Xfinity issue while we were there. Not a big deal for our group but for others who knows. Overall, we all thoroughly enjoyed Amelia Island and hope to do it again sometime in the future.

We had a great time on Amelia Island. We stayed because my husband had a conference at a nearby hotel and we needed a place with a bit more space. This was perfect and beautiful. It was fully stocked with chairs and toys for the beach. My kids loved playing in the sand, looking for shells and of course splashing in the ocean. There is also access to a spacious pool. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a few meals and even had a high chair for the baby. We went to downtown Fernandina one night and had a nice dinner with a view to the St Johns river. All the family had a great time. It can get a bit hot in the rooms but they did have some box fans. I also have a hard time sleeping if I’m not at home but the mattress in the master was amazing. No complaints there. I would not hesitate to return. Thank you.

Highly recommend
Loved the property very convenient as far as beach location and the condo is nicely decorated and worked great for our family of 7. The restaurants and town were all close by. Only thing that could be improved was cleaning crew arriving right at 10 and coming in while we were gathering our belongings to head out.
