About this property

Beachfront, Ocean View, Ground Floor Retreat at Amelia Surf & Racquet

“Paradise Palms” is a sparkling clean, beautifully updated ground floor oceanfront condo at Amelia Surf & Racquet Club, thoughtfully designed for a peaceful, relaxing getaway.

Step right out your private patio door and you’re just moments from the beach or one of two community pools. No elevators, no stairs - just effortless access to Amelia Island’s wide, sandy shoreline.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook a cozy meal or enjoy takeout with an ocean view. The dining table overlooks the water, making even a simple breakfast feel special.

Our light-filled living area features two comfortable Pottery Barn sofas layered with plush pillows and soft throws - the perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun. Watch a movie, read a book, play a game, or simply relax while listening to the waves.

The ocean-view primary bedroom offers a king-sized bed, blackout curtains for restful sleep, convenient USB outlets, and a bedside clock with Bluetooth speaker. You can also step directly onto the patio from the bedroom and start your morning with coffee and sea air.

Enjoy comfortable patio seating, ideal for a glass of wine at sunset or a quiet dinner while listening to the ocean.

Paradise Palms is ideally located between The Ritz-Carlton and Omni Amelia Island Plantation Resort, with easy access to world-class dining, spa services, and golf. Downtown Fernandina Beach, state parks, and countless water activities are just a short drive away.

Property Highlights:
• Ground floor oceanfront location
• Direct beach access
• Two community pools
• King bed with blackout curtains
• Fully equipped kitchen
• Private patio with ocean views
• Prime location near Ritz-Carlton & Omni

We would love to welcome you to our little piece of paradise.

Wonderful stay

You can't go wrong with this quaint condo. Perfect for a weekend getaway or, like for my mom, a reprieve from long hours working at the hospital. She came home re-energized and happily suntanned from her stay. She had everything she needed at the condo and cooked in every night.

Lovely beachfront condo!

Immaculate, modern beachfront condo in a quiet setting, yet convenient to all the island has to offer. My wife and I enjoyed the beautiful sunrise view, the pool just footsteps from the patio and off course the awesome beach just over the dunes! Michael and Sarah are excellent hosts that provided great communication every step of the way. Thank you!! Would love to stay again.

Slice of Paradise! Hard to leave...

Gorgeous property, stunning views, warmly decorated, sparkling clean; best 'hood on the island; hear the ocean all day; steps to pool, made lots of new friends. Property owners beyond gracious. If anything, the pix don't do the place justice! It's even nicer in real life.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah and Michael Harris

Host profile image
Hi, and welcome to "Paradise Palms"! We are Michael and Sarah Harris. We live in Atlanta full time, but Amelia Island is our favorite place to visit. We got married in 2010, and for our 10th wedding anniversary we purchased this adorable oceanfront condo. We are so thankful that we own this little slice of heaven - and that we get to share it with you! (We also own the 1BR/1BA unit next door, VRBO ID 2578408).

Why they chose this property

"Paradise Palms" is an easily accessible, ground floor unit at the beautiful Amelia Surf and Racquet Club. We love pulling up to this quiet end building, easily rolling in our luggage, and walking right out to the beach or pool. We are also big fans of the beaches on the southern end of the island. It's a little quieter and a little less crowded here - not to mention sandwiched in between all the amenities of both the Ritz Carlton and the Omni Resorts!

What makes this property unique

We've made every effort to make sure this is a comfortable, well-equipped retreat for you! We offer beach towels, beach chairs, a beach umbrella, tennis racquets and outdoor games for your enjoyment in the sunshine. If you need a break from the sun, we have provided cable TV, a Google Chromecast to stream your favorite shows, free WIFI, a Blu-Ray/DVD player, games, puzzles and books. We sincerely hope you have a GREAT time while you are here, and that you'll come visit again soon!
