My favorite place to vacation!

This was our 2nd year here, and we came back specifically because we had such a wonderful time last year. The house is perfect size for myself, husband and 2 kids. The location is beyond beautiful, and the people are so nice, and the beaches are exquisite! You can find sharks teeth just walking the beaches, the beach is never crowded! The owner is fast with responses, and easy to communicate with, we very highly recommend staying here!

Highly recommended beach cottage

We enjoyed our stay at the beach cottage. All the little details made it feel homey and it was literally steps from the beach. We were able to see the sunrise during our morning walk on the beach and the kids loved spending every minute in the water. We look forward to making more memories here!!

My family enjoyed our stay at the beach cottage. It was directly across from the beach and everything we needed was within walking distance. It wasn’t the biggest or fanciest place on the beach but it was just what we needed. I would stay again if we visit Fernandina Beach

Perfect Beach Bungalow

This home was exactly what we needed for our long weekend at the beach. The house was clean, well equipped and in the perfect location. We could watch the sunrise from the deck in the morning and take the short stroll down to the beach on the sandy street when we were done with our coffee. I really loved staying on the North end of the island as we were so close to downtown and all my favorite Amelia Island stops! The home is perfect for a small family and has all you need for meals at home. Also, boogie boards and beach boards too. We will definitely stay again!

New favorite beach thanks to Kim's Cottage

We will definitely be back. The cottage was just what we needed and it's right on the beach! The cottage was very clean. It had everything on hand for cooking so we could spend as much time as possible enjoying the beach/view. We were able to start our days watching the sunrise and walking the shore, and then pop back in for breakfast/lunch. The beach was very clean and relaxing and too. We enjoyed tea/desserts on the balcony/porch in the evening to end each day. Fernandina is now our new favorite beach. We also did the beach creek boat tour that a another guest recommended, the whole family enjoyed it.

Awesome Little Beachfront Cottage

Our family of four, including twin 3 year-olds, had an amazing time at Kim's beachfront cottage. From the day we booked our stay Kim the owner was in communication with us. Upon arrival, the house was exactly as described. While not a large house, it was perfect for our family and the location could not have been better. We were steps away from several beach accesses and the view from the house was fantastic. The location is perfect for visiting downtown, Fort Clinch, the beach, Egans Creek, and many of the other recreational activities. The house was well-stocked and we didn't feel like it was lacking any necessities. Overall the neighborhood was quiet, almost too quiet. I wish we had brought an extra white noise machine for our bedroom. Even after checkout, Kim went above and beyond to assist with reconnecting us with a forgotten item. The house was perfect and the owner couldn't have been more of a pleasure to work with. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks for sharing your home with us!

About the host

Hosted by KIM

Host profile image
David and Kim both grew up in Fernandina and love their home town. They are very knowledgable about the area and its history. Feel free to contact them with any questions.

Why they chose this property

We choose this area of the beach because of its quiet, family-friendly atmosphere. This is where the locals go for a quiet day at the shore. Most of the beach houses in this area are owned by families who have vacationed here for generations. The north end of the island exemplifies that laid back, 'old Florida' lifestyle that we think our guests will love. We like that it is centrally located for walking and biking to the historic downtown and all it has to offer.


What makes this property unique

We want our renters to feel like they are guests in our home. We are true locals and are available for restaurant and activity recommendations and any questions they may have. We go the extra mile to make sure guests enjoy their beach vacation and return again and again.
