Very nice unit. Well appointed. Slight problem with drain flies and unpleasant odor. Probably the nature of the location.

We enjoyed our stay so much! The condo was just as described which was so comfortable. The morning sunrise view from the balcony was amazing. I found myself waking up early just to see the beauty unfold.
All of our questions were answered within minutes! You’ll love everything about this condo.

My family and I had another great stay in Shipwatch hosted by Michelle. We had previously stayed at another one of her properties in Shipwatch and this one was just as wonderful. We especially enjoyed the pool and the large balcony. Highly recommend staying at any of Michelle's properties.

A special fully stocked condo right on the beach with a great pool…close to everything! Let the relaxing begin! A special shout out for the impressively outfitted beach supplies closet…chairs, boogie boards, sand toys…even flip flops! Our family enjoyed it all!

we went to Amelia Island for my wife's 50th bday and met my wife's sister and our brother-in law. We flew in from Virginia and Pittsburgh respectively so we tried our best to time when our flights arrived a roughly same time AND tried to get as close to "check-in" as possible.
Well, we had to arrive at 10AM and the 45min drive from airport got us AND ALL OUR LUGGAGE there around 11AM... It was our first time there so we had no idea where anything was. When I contacted prop manager, she said check-in isnt until 4PM.
I told her I was aware of that but we were at the mercy of the airline schedule. It wasn't as if we DROVE from Pittsburgh, PA or Virginia. All I asked was: Is there anywhere to put our things so we could Uber into town or go to resort or go to pool and sit...
She said: No.
So we walked down the road DRAGGING ALL OUR LUGGAGE until a laundry cart drove by and told us that the main resort was up the road about a mile.
Needless to say, we walked and eventually a nice man and his wife licked us up on a golf cart and drove my wife and her sister to the Omni resort while my brother in law and I walked. THe resort was kind enough to allow us to store the luggage there as they allowed us to sit by the pool and at bar while we waited for unit to be available.
SO, if you go to this place, either be really accurate with your arrival OR just have your taxi/uber take you directly to Omni resort and tip them to hold your things.

We had a great short stay. Very close to the pool, which we visited often. A little further to the beach. Enjoyed downtown Fernandina, about 20 min drive.

I attended an orthopedic conference at the Ritz. I brought my family and wanted a family-friendly layout. My choice didn't disappoint. It was easy to relax in a clean, well-appointed, and cared-for unit. A great view of the dunes and ocean, easy access to the beach and pool. Great performing A/C, too. Michelle was fantastic with communication about getting in the unit and we never needed her after checking in.

We really loved the condo. It had everything that we needed

I was very impressed with not only the cleanliness of the villa, but how well it was stocked. There were so many little touches that made our stay easier, such as ziplock bags and oils and spices in the kitchen, to games for the kids, and even beach gear and flip flops. We were not expecting to have access to these items, so we had a fully packed car with beach umbrellas, beach chairs, and towels and toys. When we arrived we realized that we did not need to bring half of the items that we packed. We plan to return to Amelia Island later this year and will definitely rent from this property manager again because it will make our trip so much easier with the lovely amenities that are provided. Because we have a small child we prefer to cook than dine out, we were pleased to find the kitchen well stocked. I chose this villa based on the 5 star rating for cleanliness and was not disappointed. Michelle ( the property manager) was lovely throughout the process and went above and beyond to be sure that our stay was as pleasant as possible. We will definitely be staying at one of her properties in the future.

This condo in Shipwatch is fabulous! The decor is lovely, it is well-stocked with all that you need for a week at the beach (including nice chairs and boogie boards), and the layout is perfect for a family. And we loved the views from the balcony! We also loved the location of Shipwatch on the Omni property with so many amenities close by (shops, restaurants, mini golf). And the Shipwatch property is lovely - the pool is fantastic and very clean, the grounds are beautifully maintained, and parking was plentiful. We absolutely loved staying in this condo and will definitely book it again when we return to Amelia Island!

This was our second summer staying here. It was very clean and well maintained. The beach closet and laundry room are well stocked with beach chairs, toys and towels. We love being able to walk to the beach and it's never crowded. Amazing place!

A few things kept our group from giving the property and experience five stars. It's a spacious property with a beautiful view and close to the ocean. Lovely kitchen! First, parking is almost impossible. There are not enough spaces for the number of guests, so we (and many others) often had to park several hundred yards away in the street. We had to do the "parking spot lottery" for all three days. The main room and kitchen floor (were beautiful but not clean. The ladies in our party had black feet after an hour or two of going barefoot. One of the guest room mattresses is very tired and needs replacing. These are all easily fixable issues.

I will definitely be coming back to stay here! Amelia Island was surprisingly not crowded during spring break week, and we truly enjoyed the privacy. The condo was clean, well-stocked, and had beautiful views. I could really tell that the owners wanted the stay to be comfortable for us by providing everything we needed- towels, chairs, toiletries, and even a few snacks. Loved our time here!

Home very clean. Very nice pool. Not crowded. One drawback …did not realize you have to walk up stairs or take elevator and then walk down the stairs to get into either level. Not great when carrying suitcases and groceries.

Wonderful first time trip to Amelia Island. Perfect location, beautiful beaches and sunrise. We will be back for sure!
