Ground Floor Turtle Dunes - Back Patio Just Steps from Ocean!

Beautiful first-floor Turtle Dunes villa located on the south end of Amelia Island. Gorgeous, high-end finishes including granite countertops and stainless steel appliances make this villa the perfect place to vacation in style. The property is in the idyllic location too - just a few steps to the complex pool or to the Atlantic Ocean. Walk right out from your back patio to the water!

Located in the award-winning Amelia Island Plantation, 1806 Turtle Dunes has been thoughtfully furnished and decorated to provide guests with the ultimate blend of high-end style and comfort. Both bedrooms boast ocean views, full bathrooms, and patio access.

The property has been stocked with everything you'll need for a wonderful stay, including starter supplies and beach towels. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances and nice cookware, and the unit offers a washer and dryer for guest use. In the living area, remote workers can utilize the desk.

As part of the popular Turtle Dunes complex, this property provides access to the beautiful and spacious Sea Turtle shared pool, which is seasonally heated. The property also awards entry to the Dunes Club tennis courts.

The gated Amelia Island Plantation (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 within the AIP.

Golf is also available within the AIP at Oak Marsh and Little Sandy, as well as multiple other great courses on the island. Tee times can be scheduled online.

Nearby, bike and golf carts can be rented to explore the larger community and venture to community playgrounds like Drummond Park and Aury Island. Many of our guests most enjoy strolling on the beach or along the AIP's miles of shaded walking and biking trails.

For those looking to explore further afield, the scenic drive north on A1A will take you to the charming Fernandina Beach Historic District to enjoy the unique boutiques, shops and dining options. Drive south on A1A to visit the Talbot Islands, nature preserves known for gentle hiking and excellent birding opportunities.

As part of this rental, a custom digital guidebook is provided with thorough property information and our local area guide sharing favorite restaurants, attractions, and more! Excitingly, our guests are also eligible to receive a 15% discount on beach gear rentals. This villa truly is the whole package, both inside and out!

Amelia Island Getaway
Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful condo for a long, relaxing weekend—we had a wonderful time! The other reviews talked about the proximity to the beach access walkway, so we were pleasantly surprised that the pool was also very close. (And we would get to see the neighborhood gopher tortoise that lives under the walkway on the way!) We enjoyed sitting outside on the patio with our coffee in the morning, and it was so nice being able to take the dog for a walk right off of the patio, as well. The condo was very well stocked with anything you may need—from beach chairs, beach towels and umbrella to extra pillows/blankets, and coffee supplies. They thought of everything! It was also very convenient being the first condo near the covered drive and being so close to the garbage chute. On the way home, we were talking about when we would be able to come back and visit again, and how we were already missing the beautiful views!

Great facility and location
Roomy, well appointed and beach access was outstanding Difficulty with front door lock was a distraction Primary uncertainly is details of pricing. Started out at less than $4000, but ended up at $5000. Difference was several separate undefined taxes and add on fees. Did not find nearly as much add one on other units in this complex. Seemed like just added items to increase total amount We would be interested in renting same time next year for two or more weeks, but not without understanding the tax and fees

Great spot at the Omni Plantation
We enjoyed this property. Being on the first floor with the large grassy area in front of us was very nice and good for our little dog. There is also a lot of outside covered space to enjoy, more than you would have on a balcony. The interior of the condo is a little tired but it definitely met our needs.

Beautiful views for sure
Well maintained property grounds. Was surprised at the number of dogs in the units, both in our building and the surrounding properties. Nice walkways for strolling along the waterfront. Within minutes of our arrival, a property management employee stopped by to check the internet and TV connections based on a prior occupant's complaint. Was very friendly. We had great success with the restaurants we chose, both on property and off. Very friendly folks everywhere we went.

We loved staying here and immediately booked next year. Clean, comfortable with many amenities. We had a great TV, comfortable bed, nice shower and bathroom, beautiful views, nice patios, friendly neighbors, very dog friendly. Not so good is the bathtub drain and the kitchen cabinets not the best.

Beautiful Condo in Turtle Dunes
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this wonderful Turtle Dunes/Amelia Island condo. It had everything we needed and the beds were extremely comfortable, which we consider important to us. We loved the ground floor location since we brought our pet, and it was lovely being steps from the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Retreat
This was such a lovely condo and perfect for our short visit to Amelia Island! We loved being on the ground floor with such a beautiful front lawn just off the porch. Just steps from the pool and beach, this made it very convenient to run in and out without missing much fun time at the water! We had everything we needed in the condo for cooking and entertainment. I will definitely be booking 1806 Turtle Dunes again! Thank you to the wonderful owners for such a beautiful place!

Great location
We think this is a perfect location for anyone who wants to stay on the Amelia Plantation. Our unit was on the ground floor which gave us excellent accessibility. A short drive provided great dining and, of course, you can also take a little longer drive to downtown. All in all, we’d be happy to rent this property again. We did have a minor glitch with the door-lock code but that was taken care of quickly.

Great location for our family
We loved being on the first level so that we could easily walk off the back porch and be just steps from the beach or pool. The beach and pool were both fantastic. There were perfect sunrise views from every room of the unit. The walking paths and trails within the grounds were fun to explore and we used the to get to some of the Omni property shops, restaurants and amenities like the playground and fishing ponds. The beds in the unit were really comfortable. The 1 kitchen drawer was still broken from the other reviewers mentions from last year. I had take to take it out and just put it on the counter top the whole time we were there. The lower cabinets were all pretty old. Some of the dishes in the unit seemed permanently dirty, which isn't that great. But they had all of the kitchen tools we needed and the fridge, stove/oven, microwave and washer/dryer were all newer and worked really well. Assuming they make some kitchen repairs, I'd stay in this unit again.

Great trip
Great condo. Comfy beds, stocked with everything you need. The only that kept me from giving 5 stars is the furniture and kitchen. Living room couch is very dirty and uncomfortable. Didn’t spend much time on it so not a big deal. The kitchen was stocked great but some of the cabinets would not open and many of the pans etc were extremely dirty. Not a huge deal either but worth mentioning. View and location of condo to pool and beach walk was perfect. Would definitely stay here again.
