Candice Cove is one of the Historic homes on American Beach Oceanfront. American Beach is a historic HOA beach community located north of Jacksonville, Florida on Amelia Island in Nassau County. During the time of segregation and the Jim Crow era, African Americans were not allowed to swim at most of beaches in Jacksonville, and several black-only areas were created. American Beach was the largest and most popular, and was a community established by Abraham Lincoln Lewis, Florida’s first black millionaire and president of the Afro-American Life Insurance Company.

American Beach was founded in 1935 by Florida’s first black millionaire, Abraham Lincoln Lewis, and his Afro-American Life Insurance Company. The plan was for his employees to have a place to vacation and own homes for their families by the shore. Throughout the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, summers at American Beach were busy with families, churches and children. It was a place where African Americans could enjoy “Recreation and Relaxation Without Humiliation”. The beach included hotels, restaurants, and nightclubs as well as homes and other businesses.

Loved our stay!
This house was the perfect getaway for 4 adults and 2 small children. Older house with tons of character and very clean. Awesome bar/hangout area underneath as well! Great location that isnt busy and we had the beach all to ourselves. Anthony was in contact with us through the week with anything we needed for our stay!

Location
The location was great. Mop bucket was left in the kitchen, the kitchen was old and hard to cook thanksgiving lunch. Bathrooms were not clean, sand in some of the beds. This home should have been taken off the rental list with damages from recent storm

Perfect Vacation Spot
My family was very impressed with our stay at Candice Cove. It was extremely clean and the owner went the extra mile and had toilet paper, paper towels, soap, first aid kits, and even more amenities you may need. The location could not have been better! The beach in front of the property felt like our own oasis as it was not crowded and so convenient to the house. My entire family agreed it was one of our favorite vacations ever :)

Relaxing Stay
We loved our stay at your beach house. It was clean, well decorated, had comfortable beds, great views and close beach access. We enjoyed the porch, deck and back patio with the outside shower. So much room to relax and enjoy the beautiful area with our pup. We also liked the historical books and cookbook re America Beach. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Thanksgiving at the beach
Location is everything in my opinion when going to the beach. This rental location was perfect. Waking up to the sunrises daily and being a walk over the dune to the ocean was exactly what this Colorado family needed!

The house and location were perfect for our girls' trip away. We had such a great time relaxing on the back porch listening to the ocean. The easy short walk right onto the beach was perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better location.

Best place on Amelia Island
This is my favorite place to go when on vacation. This place is amazing. This was a 2nd time here and it was even better. I have already scheduled my next stay. The upgrades to the bathrooms was super nice. I would give this place more than 5 stars.
