    Great laid-back “old Florida” motel right on the beach.

    Nothing. It was exactly what we wanted.

    Property was conveniently located to some great food, and right on the beach. Far enough away from the crowded historic district for us.

    Led lights would have improved the lighting. We would have liked a microwave. Smoking is allowed outside each room door. Not a problem during the day but at night when in the unit, we could smell smoke from inside our room. Would have liked a smoking area away from unit door.

    Great pool on property. Path to beach easy to walk due to sand mat covering path. Beautiful white sandy beach. Room was very clean and adequate size for us. Bathroom small but again fine for us. Coffee available every morning in check-in area. Across the street from property is a restaurant. Definitely a plus!

    There wasn’t anything we didn’t like about this place.

    The location was great. It was easy to get to. The beach access was easy to get to. The staff was so friendly and nice. The room was perfect for a quick trip. We would most definitely stay here again.

    Excellent oceanfront motel was perfect for our overnight stay. Wish we had stayed longer. Easy, free parking. Comfy, clean, great staff. Can’t beat this location! Short drive to historic Fernandina Beach, which we absolutely loved.

    The motel was clean, and the staff was very nice, but the smell emanating from, I suppose, was the drains was AWFUL! I understand the rotten eggs/sewage type oder is a problem all around Amelia Island, but it seemed particularly bad in our room.

    Clean, convenient, close to the ocean and the very nice staff.

    The room was clean, the pool is great, the beach is steps from the location. Across the street is a bar/restaurant called Surf. There is coffee and muffins from 8-10 am and check-in and check out are refreshingly old school; you actually use a key and return it. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return!

    Coffee in the rooms was not as good as the coffee they made for breakfast. Their coffee was not available until 8:00 am. Being an early bird, I was a little disappointed that I couldn’t enjoy coffee earlier.

    Convenient location to restaurants and the beach. Clean and cute mom and pop kinda motel.
