We designed and built this home from the sand up in 1997. Our mission is to welcome family and friends in a environment of quiet luxury. The home is Crump family owned and operated by the McCarthy family that built it. Thus we know, and care about every detail, and we share management , improving the end result! The ocean view is expansive and terrific from our four spacious decks. The home boasts two master bedrooms, each featuring King-sized beds.

Soul Sistas Beach week #16

This is our second year staying at Crump’s Sandcastle. It is perfect for our group of 12 friends, ages 60-75. This is our 16th yearly beach trip. We have stayed at several different homes but this is by far the best. It’s not only the spaces and number of bathrooms but you can tell this is a well loved and cared for home. We have already reserved for next year!

Better Than Before

This is the second time I've stayed in this house; the last was in 2020. If anything, the house is in better shape than before, with upgrades most notable in the bathrooms. The location can't be beat. The house is comfortable and well-equipped. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Girls Getaway

We are four 60 women that plan a trip together once a year. Amelia Island was our favorite so far. This house is in a perfect location. The beach is steps away and it is less than 10 minutes to the historic downtown or the grocery store. Also, the house is very well appointed with everything we could need. We are talking about a returning.

Spring Break Memories

We’ve been coming to Fernandina Beach for Spring Break the last 7 years. The last four of which have been spent at this house. I don’t think there is a more perfect location for our family. The proximity to a quiet section of beach and the relaxing porch to swing and watch the ocean are our favorite features. This house was built for families and we have used it to make memories for ours.

Best house in the area!

We just wrapped our 9th annual family vacation in Amelia Island. This house has been the best so far! Location, house layout, cleanliness, comfort, supplies, and the SCREEN PORCH all made our stay so enjoyable. We look forward to returning next year!

We have rented this house for two years and love sitting on the porch in the morning, drinking coffee and enjoying the ocean view. While the house is older, you can’t beat the location.
