Shipwatch #1305 - Ocean Front! | 3 Bed, 3.5 Bath

Paradise awaits at this stunning two-story, three bedroom, three and a half bathroom oceanview villa, located on the beautiful Amelia Island!

Situated at the south end of the Omni Amelia Island Resort grounds, with direct beach access and heated pool, this well-appointed home is absolutely perfect for your next family vacation, romantic getaway, or ladies' weekend. The first thing you’ll note when driving into this exclusive gated community is the abundance of stunning, old white oak trees and Spanish moss, which form canopies over the roads and bike paths of the community. You will immediately feel in close touch with nature while you're here, Convenient parking meets you at the Shipwatch complex, where you will take stairs up to your new home-away-from-home.

Shipwatch #1305 is an incredible two-story unit, which boasts spacious and open living areas and stunning ocean views, and is tastefully and comfortably decorated with bright, neutral tones and beachy decor. Enjoy easy conversation and entertainment between the updated and fully-equipped kitchen, spacious dining area, furnished for a family or large group, and cozy common area. The balcony, accessed easily from the living room, looks directly out at the ocean, Enjoy listening to the sounds of the waves with a good book and glass of wine. This floor also includes a bathroom for easy access.

The lower level of this home features three generously sized bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. Each bedroom is equipped with large, comfortable beds and luxury linens. This property comfortably sleeps six guests between the king-size master, queen guest bedroom, and third bedroom offering two twin beds (which can easily be turned into an additional king bed). We would also love to welcome your four-legged, furry family members (dogs up to 100 pounds) to explore the beautiful beaches, Historic Downtown area, or to walk the trails throughout this beautiful island.

All fresh linens and towels are provided for our guests. We also provide a starter pack of toilet paper, paper towels, dish washing soap, dish pods, and laundry detergent. Beach chairs, beach towels, and an umbrella are also provided for you to use during your stay.

Just outside is the oceanfront heated pool (seasonally, October - February) and grilling area, just steps away from the beach. It is conveniently located close to the Omni Amelia Island Resort with a wide variety of dining and shops. After a busy day at the beach or the pool, stroll through the shops or spend some time at the full-spa facility. No matter the occasion, your party will undoubtedly plan future visits and create memories that will last a lifetime at the gorgeous Shipwatch complex.

We have found our GO TO vacation spot!
Go ahead and book this condo! The rooms are spacious and each have a vanity sitting area to get ready and a bathroom! The separate living space made this feel even more roomy for our group. They have seriously thought out every detail, they are equipped for your needs! The walk to the pool is not bad and the pool is very nice and has a lot chairs. The walk to the beach isn’t too bad. The scenery and landscape around the condo was so beautiful! We will be back. This place was perfect for our family, thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Christmas family Getaway
We love Amelia island, been coming for decades. This was our first time in this part of the island. We loved waking up, drinking coffee on the balcony listening to the waves every morning. The rooms were spacious and comfy beds made for great sleep to dream of sugar plums. We played pickleball daily at the Drummond Point Park, over looking the marsh side of the island. Great facility, trails, and courts with public restrooms. We enjoyed the farmers market on Saturday downtown, even got a photo with Santa before his big workday. We took an evening trip into Jacksonville to see the festive “Deck The Chairs” art exhibit, and caught an exhilarating Icemen hockey match. A must, and maybe a new tradition for our family. We saw family and had a wonderful time. Heated pool, ocean for miles of exploring, this space is prefect for families who can do stairs to stay in. ** Might need to ask Santa for a spatula for pancake making, and a WiFi extender for downstairs bedrooms. My family was happy to have this great home to share this Christmas.

We really enjoyed the area. My girlfriend used to live in Jacksonville, so she gave me the complete tour: Jax Beach, Amelia Island Beach, Fernandina Beach. What a little slice of heaven! The accommodations were excellent. We loved the property, and felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. So many good things to say: the landscaping was immaculate, the pool was wonderful, and we felt like we had a huge section of our own private beach. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed, the A/C worked great the whole time, the linens and towels (and lots of beach towels) were perfect. We loved, loved, loved it! One gotcha, which was no fault of anyones is that there are two doors. When they say the keycode is for the upper door, it really is the upper door. Even though we went up a flight of stairs to the door, it really wasn't the upper door. My recommendation is to take the elevator. You'll see what I mean! Anyway, a testament to the management company is that Chelsea came by to ensure we found our way in. I really appreciated her going the extra mile for us. Our whole trip was wonderful! Thank you!

Quick getaway
We enjoyed a quick getaway at this Omni Villa. The Omni property is so beautiful. This villa was nice but this villa and the property are not handicap friendly. As stated, there is a half a flight of stairs to enter the property. There is an elevator at this property but it only stops between floors. There are also 2 flights of stairs inside the villa. There are stairs to access the pool and beach and the beach access is a very far walk from the villa. The villa had everything we needed but based on the previously mentioned, we would not choose to stay here again. The cell service (AT&T) and the wifi were poor. Also, it took a long time to cool the unit properly, the first day/night was miserably hot.

Dirty
Great location and nicely decorated, but don't be fooled by the pictures, this place needs some TLC. Biggest issue was cleanliness, everything was dirty, there were bugs, and the inside of dishwasher was COVERED in black mold. I let management know but they didn't seem to care. We have stayed in Ship Watch Villas multiple times, stay away from this unit, there are plenty of other much better choices.

Raising money for a cure!
We came down as a family of five (three adult children) two with Type1 diabetes. Rode in the 100 mile ride hosted annually by JDRF. Couldn’t have had a more lovely location! The island is spectacularly beautiful and this condo offered a great location within the plantation . Walk to beach, plenty of room,. Large deck.- just not for anyone with weak knees… lots of stairs.

We found the home very clean and really liked that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Bathrooms and appliances need to be updated. Stairs getting in to property was very different. Ocean front view was very small; could only be seen from far corner of balcony. Would have preferred to be higher up.

Nice condo, good layout. Great for dogs.
Everything was nice, good layout. Good supply of paper towels, toilet paper, Kleenex and dishwasher detergent. Property manager was very responsive. Easy walk to beach. Great green space area to kick soccer ball. Pool clean but chilly. Noisy when college students moved into condos on our floor, Thursday- Sunday. (UGA vs UF weekend) Floors a little dirty- dirt on feet and crawlers hands and knees. Only problem was limited WiFi and text messaging. No cell service- we had AT&T. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay.

Lovely, spacious condo
This was our first trip to Amelia Island. Our accommodations were excellent. This was probably one of the cleanest Vrbo’s we have stayed in. There was a great assortment of beach chairs and beach toys. One of the beach chairs was broken but that was probably because whoever used it last didn’t say anything. The kitchen was well stocked and plenty of room to cook. The seating in the living room was very comfortable. Keep in mind if you are not able to deal with stairs this is not the location for you. There are stairs going up to the condo, in the condo, and to the beach. As far as location we were not familiar with the area and turns out we were about 15 minutes from downtown and all the good restaurants but it was worth it. This area is away from the busy part of the island and super quiet. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Lots of stairs
I was shocked by the amount of stairs to enter the unit. I reread the listing and noticed it did say comfortable with stairs. I didn’t take into account getting luggage into the unit. And stairs at every turn. The ocean view did not exist unless I stood in the far right end of the patio. Direct beach access was not exactly easy. Again, more stairs I must admit the unit itself was very nice and clean. I did enjoy “listening “ to the ocean while on the deck. I was comfortable while in the unit.
