Neighborhood Overview:

The Ebb Tide Cottage is well-located towards the north end of the island and is a quick drive to all of the island`s best dining and shopping. Additionally, this section of the beach is all residential homes so there are no condo buildings (i.e., this section of the beach is generally less crowded than the condo sections). From the house, you can walk to Slider’s Seaside Grill (0.4 miles) for oceanfront dining, beach drinks, and live music.

To the north, you will find Main Beach which features the Salt Life and Sandbar Kitchen restaurants, a playground, and beachside putt putt golf. From there, Amelia Island`s downtown historic district is just a short drive down Atlantic Avenue. There you will find plenty of wonderful restaurants, shopping, nightlife and local culture. Fort Clinch State Park is also located along Atlantic Avenue. The park features the 19th century Fort Clinch (still open to the public for tours), a great beach, and lots of beautiful trails for hiking or biking.

The South end of the island boasts several wonderful restaurants, the Ritz and Omni resorts, a picturesque canopy biking trail, and charming local boutiques. We recommend checking out the Ritz spa if you are looking for a relaxing treat!

If you go inland (west), you can find most necessities within two miles of the house. Sadler Road has a Publix grocery store, Starbucks, and multiple quick restaurants.

Getting Around:

Amelia Island is a small area and is easy to navigate! There is free parking available throughout the entire island, making driving very easy to any place you choose to visit.

Although Uber/Lyft are not very reliable on the island (we strongly recommend bringing a car), they are available through the app on your smartphone.

Bike rentals are available at `The Beach Store` located a half mile south of the Ebb Tide Cottage. Riptide Watersports also delivers bikes and other beach gear.

This house was beautifully appointed and immaculately cleaned. The views from the big windows across the back were beautiful. The kitchen was so well stocked. Anything we needed, it had. We loved the expansive back deck and the nice, private walkway over the backyard and dunes to the beach. 10 out of 10 for sure!!

Absolutely wonderful!

Such a perfect property for our group - 6 adults, no kids. Clean, comfortable, beautifully refinished and perfectly outfitted for a week at the beach. Outdoor spaces perfect for enjoying the beach from the deck & for walking out to the sand itself. Hosts were exceptional with communication & check in/out procedures. Our group is already looking forward to our next stay in the same house!
