About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Ketch a Wave • Oceanfront • 2 King Suites

When you stay at Ketch a Wave condo, you are truly renting directly from the owner, not a property management company. This provides you with the advantage of paying only 2 fees: a cleaning fee and VRBO’s service fee. The cleaning fee we charge is exactly what we pay our cleaner. VRBO sets its own service fee.

Ketch a Wave’s features include:
• Oceanfront
• 2 King Suites
• Full Kitchen
• Washer & Dryer
• Beach Umbrella, Beach Chairs, & Beach Towels
• Large Oceanfront Balcony
• 2nd Floor
• Elevator + No Steps Inside Condo
• Low Density Complex
• Pool (not heated)
• 1 Parking Spot with No Charge for Parking

- Convenient Oceanfront Location -
Our condo is located in the Ketch Courtyard complex, which is about 5 miles from popular attractions such as Fort Clinch State Park and the historic downtown area. Just across the street, you will find a local favorite, The Surf Restaurant. If you’re hoping to enjoy Amelia Island’s beautiful beaches, just walk out the front door to the beach walkway that’s exclusively for Ketch Courtyard guests.

- Kitchen with a View -
One of the primary benefits of staying in a vacation condo rather than a hotel is having the ability to prepare your own meals, saving you money. You’ll appreciate our fully-equipped kitchen with all stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen is open-concept, allowing you to continue enjoying the wonderful ocean view while you prepare meals.

Beyond pots and pans and other kitchen essentials, we also provide
• Dishwasher Pods
• Dish Soap
• Paper Towel
• Garbage Bags

- Oceanfront, Restful Living Room -
After spending the day exploring Amelia Island, you can relax in our comfortable leather sofa or accent chair. There is a new flat screen TV with Comcast cable. If you want to dine in, there is a table for 4 plus additional barstool seating at the counter.

- Master Suite with Private Balcony Access -
In the master bedroom, you’ll find a new king size bed, a flat screen TV, and plenty of storage space in the walk-in closet. There is even access to the private, expansive, oceanfront deck through the sliding glass doors.

- Master Ensuite Bathroom -
The ensuite bathroom has a lovely antique white vanity with beadboard paneled doors. You’ll also find a beautifully tiled tub/shower combination.
The bathroom amenities we provide include:
• Shampoo and Conditioner
• Body Wash
• Blow Dryer
• Towels

- Second King Bedroom -
In the second bedroom, you’ll find a king bed, 2 night stands, and a spacious walk-in closet with plenty of storage. There is also a door leading from the bedroom into the second bathroom, creating an option for a private ensuite by locking the second/hallway door. Our second bedroom also includes:
• A Flat-Screen TV
• 2 Beach Chairs (stored in closet)
• Beach Umbrella (stored in closet)

- Second Bathroom -
Our second bathroom is accessible from the second bedroom and the hallway. It is very similar to the master bathroom, just a bit smaller.

- Laundry Room, Not Laundry Closet -
One of the things that drew me to our condo was the fact it has a dedicated room for laundry, rather than just a closet. Above the washer and dryer, you’ll find additional shelving for storage. In the laundry room, we provide:
• Laundry Detergent
• Beach Towels

- Ketch Courtyard Pool -
When you stay as our guest, you’ll have access to Ketch Courtyard’s private pool.

- Guest Access –
• The keyless entry allows for convenient self check-in and easy coming and going for all guests.
• Parking is located directly in front of the complex and is free. You are able to park one car in the Ketch Courtyard lot.

- Interaction with Guests –
Prior to your check-in, I will send pertinent information to you, such as the WiFi password, pool door code, keyless entry code, and a detailed list of items we provide. Should any questions or concerns arise, you can easily contact me through VRBO messaging.

Perfect spot!

First time at Amelia Island and traveling with a 1yr old. Michelle’s place was awesome! She really thought of everything! Was amazing to wake up to the beach everyday and enjoy the the view while the babe napped! About a 7-10min drive to the downtown part but it was perfect!

Very nice place

This place was very clean and located in a great place. The bed was super comfortable. The complex is small enough to where there’s not a lot of others to worry about. The host was very responsive on one minor issue we had and the handyman was at my door in minutes after the request. We would absolutely stay here again.

Not what expected

Not enough seating in the living room for four people with just one small couch and one armless chair. Bathrooms were very dark, no lights in the shower area is concerning since we are over 65. The back room was musty, smelling, and very tight and dark. King bed was nice, but it did not allow any room for any dresser or a chair to help with luggage. Owner should at least furnish luggage. rack because there isn’t even room on the floor, which I wouldn’t do to put my luggage. A closet in the back room was very musty and not conducive to hanging my clothes. Did not like the low ceilings specially when my husband is 6 feet tall. We decided to only stay there one night and we left went to another hotel. Foggy weather did not help with amenities.

Central Location

Place was great for us. Clean and comfortable. A simple bar across street served us well and ocean view was perfect with easy access to the beach. To make it even better an end table and place to put feet up or coffee table would help. Would stay again?

Location, Views, Access .... perfect!

After dozens of trips to AIsland, this is our 1st Ocean Front rental. We hope to afford it again! Peaceful=A+ Location(for us quiet folks)=A+ Accessibility=A- (elevator, short walk to front door, inside entryway access, luggage carts, see note below) Host communication=A+ Swimming pool=A+ Basic nice quality cookware but NO bakeware or mixing bowls at all so bring yours if you'll need them. One bathroom has wider doorway for HC but still has tub/shower with no grab bars. Converting it to a walk-in shower with bars would make it perfect! Beds were SO comfortable! Beach chairs, beach towels & umbrella kept us from having to load ours up in the car! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Beach all day

The view of the ocean is incredible! Short walk to the beach and the hostess provided beach umbrellas, beach chairs, and beach towels. Downside for us and I'm sure it'll be corrected was no password to the wifi and we couldn't communicate with her without it. The light was out over the door, so it was hard to see the keypad. Plus, we didn't have the code to the pool, but others gave it to us. Don't delay booking this unit though. It was well appointed and in a great location!!

Perfect Location-Right on Beach

Place was as described, and everything was ready for our visit. Beautiful view of the water. Quiet. Ample parking. Close to everything. We didn't have pool code but received it from property manager. Sliding doors need some work and did not lock. Washer/dryer could be updated but nice having them for our use. A crock pot would be a nice addition to the kitchen. This way meal cooking while at the beach. Beach is pristine and everyone respects it. Overall, definitely would return.
