Disappointed overall

We only stayed 3 of our 5 booked nights. Very noisy above and on one side of condo, constant loud music playing. Concerned with upstairs condo door taped and off its hinges. Looked like Shipwatch Property not taken care of. Sign at pool says open from dawn to dusk, although noisy with people past dusk. Condo showed age metal rusting, shower and bathrooms sinks, chips in floor tile.Would not use Vacasa or stay there again.

Nice place, great view!

First time on Amelia Island and we loved it. The house was nice and had a fantastic view. Balcony access from each room was great. The added security of a gated community was a plus.

Almost Heaven!

The condominium was beautiful, comfortable, and well stocked with everything we might need during our stay. The view was spectacular and we spent lots of time on our porch and in the comfortable chairs at the front windows. It was a perfect spot for our dog, both inside and out on the gorgeous property. We hope to visit this condominium again very soon!

Nice Place

Very nice place and location. Only complaint was NO COFFEE MAKER. I had to go buy one. Seven steps getting to our room were no big deal. We would definitely go back and take our coffee maker. Great pool area and views.

Great dog friendly stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My mom and dad want to thank you for the great relaxing trip. I got to meet many other new friends and I got to experience the ocean for the first time. I really enjoyed chasing the sea foam as the wind blew it along the sand. I am still a pup, but my dad and mom like to teach me manners when meeting others( of all kinds) It was so great!

Jaw dropping ocean views

The views are everything. Oceanfront. Gorgeous sunrises. Spacious and comfortable. That said, the bathrooms are a bit tired, with peeling paint and rusty shower curtain rods. Similarly, the tile is older, with less than pristine grout. The pink paint peeking out from behind the toilet showed more care could be taken with the paint job. But the ocean views, the peace and quiet. I’d go back.

Luggage cart

There are no luggage carts on this property. I was on the top floor and had to make 6 trips to bring all my stuff up. I'm older and have a dog. For the price I paid you should have carts. I broke a bottle of wine carrying it up with my stuff. There should be a bigger tv in the living room.

Meet requirements, but could use some updates.

The vents were disgusting!!!! Black , moldy gross, shower rods rusted out, paint literally coming off ceiling, lamps master did not work . WIFI unplugged, mAster bedroom ceiling fan broke, unable to use, phones disconnected, minimum towels, pots and pans kinda gross, needs to be updated, coffee pot, linens and pillows needs to be upgraded. Curtains were severely old. Front door was chipped and water leak in ceilings … just not what was expected.

Terrible Stay

This is without a doubt the worse trip I’ve done with a VRBO property. The listing/advertising is quite misleading. To begin with the listing indicates that we have one parking space with the unit. Not true. The closest I could park to our unit was about 100+ yards. Next there are no luggage carts to help you unload your luggage and packages. The outside temperature hovered around 90* to 93* and we had to handle carry all of our stuff. Then we needed to take the stuff up four floors on the elevator, then walk down a set of stairs carrying the luggage to the unit. Next the WIFI was terrible. Again the advertising said the unit had streaming capability. It did not. When I tried to contact the local representative , they would only communicate via text. Never by phone/voice. And then the text we received back supposedly addressing the issue never worked. The ice maker in the unit was broken. The local resource claimed they were unaware of that. However there were two small ice cube trays in the freezer. Clearly they knew about the problem as they had the placed the ice cube trays in the freezer before we arrived. We are truly unset with our stay. I feel the owners of this unit should reach out to us to discuss our stay.

The week at 1354D Shipwatch

The property was just as described in the pictures. I love the fact that this property owner is dog friendly. We were able to enjoy our vacation with our pup with us. The whole property is beautiful and the beach is not crowded with people. I sat on the balcony a lot over looking the pool and the ocean. Even though this time of year is hot, as the afternoon came the breeze picked up and it was just lovely. We totally enjoyed our stay and will be back again!

Great view, spacious condo

This condo had a great view and tons of room with a great patio area. The condo is a little dated with shower nozzles that only hit your head and a dishwasher that is in need of repair. Having laundry in the condo was great and we would recommend this property for a family or a couple

Only drawback

I didn't notice this in the caption of the property, if it is mentioned, my mistake. The elevator landing spot is between floors. So it would go to floor D, but that meant you still had to travel up or down stairs to reach your room. Not a deal breaker for my family, but if you had elderly people or anyone in a wheelchair, it would be inconvenient.

Nice stay at shipwatch

The view was lovely as are the grounds and pool area. Easy walk to the beach. The condo is large and has a good layout with newer appliances and living room and dining room furniture. The bathrooms need a refresh/renovation has some peeling ceiling paint, dirty grout rusty tp holder. Otherwise the photos are accurate.
