Fully Remodeled 5th-Floor Sandcastles Villa with Ocean Views!

Gorgeous ocean views are waiting for you at 241 Sandcastles in the Amelia Island Plantation! This 5th-floor, 1-bedroom oceanfront villa has undergone a complete remodel with no detail left untouched!

Enjoy all-new furnishings throughout and features like raised, smooth ceilings, recessed lighting, and granite counters in the open kitchen that overlooks the dining area and living room. The en-suite bedroom includes a luxurious king bed, TV, desk for remote workers, two updated vanities in the bathroom, plenty of storage, and direct access to the oceanfront balcony. There is also a queen-size sleeper sofa in the living room and extra linens are provided.

From anywhere in the villa take in the stunning views and linger as long as you like on your private balcony. When you are ready, head to the beautifully updated complex pool or to the private beach access winding through the picturesque dunes. Between May and October keep your eyes peeled for nesting sea turtles on the beach (but be sure to keep your distance as they are locally and federally protected!) Perhaps you will spot dolphins, a migrating manatee, or one of our many shorebirds. The season for North Atlantic Right Whale activity starts in November and continues through March each year too. If you spot these, you've had the rare opportunity to see one of the world's most endangered species!

The gated AIP community is a beloved 1,340-acre paradise that is surrounded by maritime forests, tidal salt marshes and pristine, sandy beaches. Dining, shopping, and spa services are offered at the Omni Amelia Island Resort, located next door within the AIP.

Sandcastles Villas is one of the most popular rental destinations in AIP with 3.5 miles of sandy beaches right in its backyard. Cross the road to the walking/biking trails that weave for miles throughout the gated community and are an easy route to the old-Florida outdoor shopping village. This village has restaurants, boutiques, an art gallery, a nature center, and a luxury spa.

The socially-connected traveler will appreciate the complimentary high-speed wireless internet, and there is open parking for multiple cars in front of the unit. Bike and golf cart rentals are available nearby, and there are multiple golf courses close to this condo.

Note that the community laundry rooms are located on the 1st, 2nd, and 6th floors (this condo is on the 5th floor.)

Please be advised that this property is privately owned and managed, and is not a rental through the Omni Amelia Island Resort. Our rental does not give you access to "resort privileges or amenities” like the Omni hotel pool, fitness center, and shuttle service. The Racquet Park tennis center allows lessons and clinics to be scheduled, but open play is limited to club members.

Wonderful condo with awesome views! The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. The beach is only a short walk from the condo and pool which is fabulous, especially in 100 degree weather! The only issue we had was that the pad lock malfunctioned, and we couldn’t get into the condo. The management team quickly responded and got us back in within 30 minutes. Excellent service!

Island Paradise

This condo was great. It was clean and had all the comforts of home, along with a spectacular view of the ocean and sunrises from the deck. The location is perfect in the Omni Resort with restaurants, shopping, golf, and beautiful walking paths. It's like being on an Island resort.

Very Nice Condo in a Beautiful Community

My spouse and I visited friends in the area for a long weekend and were very pleased with the accommodations. The condo is located on the Omni Resort property and is in a convenient location if you're looking to explore Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island. The condo was nicely decorated and the beach front view is amazing. The property management team were helpful and shared all of the details we needed to enjoy our stay. Would definitely return when in the area again.

Excellent location

Well it was a beautiful unit! But the mattress was horrible! We got very little sleep! If you look at the mattress you can see there is a problem with it. Also the kitchen needs restocked with cooking tools! Pots and pans are very limited! It’s a struggle to find stuff to fix dinner and to cook with. Other than these topics the place was nice.
