We had a great stay and the unit was perfect. Being on the ground floor was great for getting to the beach and pool, and we still had an amazing view of the water. Definitely would recommend staying here.

Perfect for families

It was perfect! Plenty of space for my family of four. Comfortable and well stocked. Loved the first floor location and proximity to pool and beach. Being on the first floor did not inhibit ocean views at all. Can’t wait to stay again!

Friend’s Annual Beach Week

We rented this property for the first time this year ( it is our 8th year together for a beach week). The property location was perfect. The place was clean and well organized! We stayed 8 nights and booked again for next year. The property management team were great- responsive and very friendly! They made us feel welcomed.

You Are Welcome Here

It was a pleasure dealing with Guest Cottage. My sisters and I took our traditional beach trip to Amelia Island. We rented a property managed by Guest Cottage..Once inside the rental we were amazed to find extra perks that went beyond our expectations. There were plentiful supplies from extra facial tissue, soap, body wash, and lotion to a welcoming basket of snacks. The unit was so clean and check in and check out was so easy. The folks at Guest Cottage were easy to contact and very responsive to any question that we had. I will search them out the next time we vacation in that area.

Great Stay!

We headed to Florida on the Monday that Hurricane Debby hit. Lindsay from Guest Cottage was phenomenal. She stayed in touch with me for the duration of our drive letting us know we could check in early. Then calling back to let us know we would need to be moved to a different location (Ocean Place) due to water coming in on our originally booked first floor condo. Checked in again to make sure we got settled and everything was okay. I’m sure Amelia south would have been amazing as well. We had a great stay after the rain passed. Plenty of room, and the condo was well stocked with everything we could have possibly needed. Very clean. Great view. Definitely exceeded our expectations. Will definitely book again in the future!

Great Stay!!

We loved staying in Amelia South E1. It's been updated since our last visit and was very nice. The kitchen and unit had many extra items so there was nothing we needed that wasn't supplied. Beds were extremely comfortable and the location was perfect. The only suggestion we would have would be to possibly provide a few more towels/washcloths and a vacuum cleaner. Other than that is was perfect. We will definitely be booking again!

End of summer getaway

We had a nice stay in this unit. It was ideal on the first floor with easy access to the beach. It was located mid island, so getting downtown or to the south end was only a short 10 minute drive in either direction. Communication with the property management was very good and responsive. The unit did have two beach chairs and an umbrella, however the umbrella was broken and the chairs were very small and not really comfortable for spending the whole day on the beach. If you stay here you may want to rent these items if you want to stay on the beach all day. All in all, a great cute spot with a beautiful view!

Beautiful ground floor unit steps fromThe beach.

The unit was nice and as described. Being on the ground floor was the best part. The pool was kept up and not crowded at all. I loved having my morning coffee on the porch listening to the waves. The only things I would mention is that the instructions said that there were parking passes which I did not see anywhere in the unit and 2 key fobs which there was only 1 available when we checked in. Only minor issues and nothing that would stop me from staying in this unit again. Thank you for having us!
