Amelia Island Vacation

We enjoyed our stay. The accommodation was very clean, quiet, comfortable and is nicely furnished/decorated. True to the listing photos. We had all the cookware and utensils needed and appreciated not having to buy any cleaning supplies. There were a couple of minor things we needed help with and the nice folks at Stay Better promptly took care of it. We met and talked with a couple of the neighbors while on walks and at the pool (nice pool area) and everyone was friendly and welcoming. We found this to be the case all over the island. The nice path that leads to the beach took us 10-15 minutes to walk. Be advised there is a small flight of stairs to climb over the dunes before getting to the beach. This was a good place for us to stay.
