We had a wonderful weekend at Amelia On My Mind. It was perfectly set up for our friends and family. There was plenty of parking, spacious rooms, well-equipped kitchen and a wonderful back porch along with beach misc. and outdoor fun. We were walkable to a few restaurants in the Main Beach area and there was a quick walkover to the beach about a block away. Thank you for thinking through all the details and for such a comfortable stay! We will be back!

Only improvement might be dining place having seats with backs. High top table only had stools, and dining table only benches. Not as comfortable for eating or playing games for senior citizens without back support. But otherwise nice place.

Great Spring Break

We had a wonderful stay for our spring break trip 2025. The home was comfortable, clean and well equipped. We had tons of kids with us ranging from 11 to 20 years old. There is plenty of space for us all to spread out. We loved all the games and using the back patio. The location is amazing so easily walkable to the beach and also a few restaurants up the street. Everything that we needed was there, we packed up the provided wagon with beach chairs, and boogie boards and hit the beach every day.

Christmas in January

The property location was great, across the street from the beach and a short drive to downtown! The common area was fantastic for us, lots of space for everyone to spread out! However, the no door on the Master Bathroom is odd, and awkward. There should be a door there. Also, we had 5 adults (mostly female) sharing the other two rooms and only one bathroom, which was difficult. It would be fantastic if there was another bathroom or powder-room. Maybe even additional mirrors to use in the bedrooms or hallways for makeup. (Just an idea from our group;))The place was clean, and the garage with laundry and ping pong was nice :) We had a nice visit together and absolutely love Amelia Island!

All of our expectations were met, the only reasons we gave 4 out 5 stars was due to the lack of mirrors in the home as we were a house full of women. Otherwise it was to our liking Overall very well tidy and clean but there were a few hairs on the bed

We had a fantastic time staying here! Great communication leading up to the weekend, especially with the uncertainty of the hurricane. We enjoyed using the bikes to explore the trails and farmer’s market. The place comfortably fit everyone and the bunk beds were a delight!

The space was very clean and has been recently renovated. The second bathroom does not have a door so that is a little awkward. Other than that, it was a beautiful house.

Could have stayed longer.

The house was perfect. We did have an HVAC that was acting up a tiny bit but the property manager responded quickly and resolved it as fast as he could. The house was clean and the location was great. Just a note to anyone with small children: the beach access closest to the house does have about 7 steps up to the boardwalk and back down. So if you are a wagon/rolling cooler family just consider it has to be carried up and down those steps to access the beach. Overall great comfortable house and location.
