Ranked among the 10 Most Beautiful Beaches in the World, Amelia Island is one of Florida's best-kept secrets. With it’s slow, Southern charm, beautiful Victorian homes, and miles of salt marshes and beaches it’s no wonder that Southern Living Magazine describes historic Fernandina Beach as 'one of the most charming little towns in Florida”. Just 35 miles from downtown Jacksonville, and a short 30-minute drive to the airport, Amelia offers the quiet of a small island while providing convenience of the big city.

Fun activities abound, making Amelia a year-round vacation destination. Whether it’s tennis, fishing, water sports, horseback riding, biking, hiking, kayaking, seashell hunting, shopping, or just relaxing, you can do it on Amelia Island. Historic Fernandina, just a 1.5 mile bike ride away from this home, features outstanding sightseeing, thrift, consignment, and retail shops, and more than 20 restaurants.

Dining choices include everything from local seafood houses to the 5 diamond Grill Room at the Ritz-Carlton.

Less than 200 yards from the beach and 5 minutes from the public pool, many activities are walking-distance. The 1,100-acre Ft. Clinch State Park is literally the back yard, where you can visit the fishing pier, hike or bike on 11 miles of paved and unpaved trails, and explore the Civil War fort. Oceanfront Park is just a couple of blocks away, with beach front restaurants, basketball courts, miniature golf, a waterfront playground, and other family activities.

About Debbie and Don Walker

Hi from the Walkers. Welcome to our beach home.

We live and work outside Savannah, Georgia.

Debbie and Don Walker purchased this house in 2008
Why Debbie and Don Walker chose Fernandina Beach

Amelia Island, specifically Fernandina Beach, is a beautiful and fun beach destination, without the summer heat usually associated with Florida. The tropical climate and beautiful beach is wonderful. We plan to retire here one day.

Charming house, with everything we were looking for...short walk to beach, private, clean and well maintained. The toys, kids books and dvds were a welcomed treat for our tired 4 year old. The owners were great to work with and I will definitely recommend this property to friends. A++++

This house was perfect for our family of nine. We liked the layout and the coziness of it. The children loved their play house under the stairs. Lots of activities nearby but it was a little too cold to enjoy some of them. Hope to someday return in warmer weather and enjoy all this house and town have to afford. I found the owner very easy to communicate with. I would definetely recommend this property.

Lovely Spot!

5 of 5

I stayed here with my husbands family for a Christmas getaway. The house is cozy, with a roomy feeling open plan. Very clean and well appointed; kitchen fully stocked for making meals, a small "sand" room with a variety of beach toys and lounge chairs, nice outside porch, working fireplace (it was chilly when we were there!), Wi-Fi, washer/dryer... everything you need to feel at home. It's a very short walk to the beach and Fort Clinch State Park is within walking distance as well. My daughter and I love Amelia Island and this was a great house to spend time in while there! Next time I'll bring a bike (although you can rent them on the island), my daughter just learned how to ride yesterday and exploring the island would be so much fun from this spot! In addition to the State Park there are several children's play parks, one just down the street and bordering the beach. I wish I could remember the name of the Mexican restaurant we found - it was right next to a big grocery store and had excellent food.

We stayed here for 5 nights that were terrific. The house was clean, quiet and comfortable. We were very close to the beach and fort cinch, and a short car ride to town. There was a very helpful book with area attractions and resturant info in the house. It was very easy working with the owners, who were always informative and pleasant. I would stay here if in the area again.
