About this property

Ketch a Wave • Oceanfront • 2 King Suites

When you stay at Ketch a Wave condo, you are truly renting directly from the owner, not a property management company. This provides you with the advantage of paying only 2 fees: a cleaning fee and VRBO’s service fee. The cleaning fee we charge is exactly what we pay our cleaner. VRBO sets its own service fee.

Ketch a Wave’s features include:
• Oceanfront
• 2 King Suites
• Full Kitchen
• Washer & Dryer
• Beach Umbrella, Beach Chairs, & Beach Towels
• Large Oceanfront Balcony
• 2nd Floor
• Elevator + No Steps Inside Condo
• Low Density Complex
• Pool (not heated)
• 1 Parking Spot with No Charge for Parking

- 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, 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. Our second bedroom also includes:
• A Flat-Screen TV
• 2 Beach Chairs (stored in closet)
• Beach Umbrella (stored in closet)

- 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.

- 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.

Wonderful times at Ketch Court

Very nice location, the grounds keeper (Rick) was a gem, he was out daily watering the plants, vacuuming and sweeping the hallways, he was quick to lower the pool umbrellas and warn us of the weather change, very friendly, warm and inviting person who made us feel welcome. The location is great for local businesses and the view of the beach is stunning, I love Ketch Court!

Michelle's condo is absolutely beautiful and comfortable! Waking up and looking out the sliding doors to watch the sunrise without lifting my head from my pillow was amazing!! Parking was easy and the elevator made hauling a breeze! I will definitely be staying at Michelle's again soon!

Amelia Island Condo

This condo was perfect for my wife and I and our two friends who met us there for the Georgia - Florida weekend. It was hard to find a condo with two king size beds and this one was perfect! It was also neat to watch two turtles and a golden eagle between the building and the beach. Hopefully we can come back next year.

Overall great location and comfortable unit. Ist floor hall is tiled but not 2nd and perhaps 3rd floors. Looks like that make be happening. Otherwise hallway painted concrete floors are not very inviting. Front door sticks as does the master bathroom door. Cook ware needs some updating but otherwise the unit is well stocked. An area rug in the living area would be nice as well as a small coffee table. Beds were very comfortable. I'm glad I brought a feather pillow. Overall the unit was fine for a weekend stay.

We just got back of from staying at this condo, it is just as pictured and was amazing. The views off the balcony were great, it was nice getting up early to watch the sunrise while sitting on the balcony. It was very large and there was even access from the master bedroom, as well as the living room. It was great access to beach with its own private boardwalk that took you right there. The place was clean, and we wanted for nothing as it was well stocked. Great location on the beach and just a short drive to the historic downtown district, which as great. Visit Sliders right down the road for tiki bar right on the beach and had live music. Had a very nice dinner at Salt Life which was a little further down.

Very nice place

This place was very clean and located in a great place. The bed was super comfortable. The complex is small enough to where there’s not a lot of others to worry about. The host was very responsive on one minor issue we had and the handyman was at my door in minutes after the request. We would absolutely stay here again.
