Neighborhood Overview:

The Turtle Loft is centrally located approximately halfway down the island and is a quick drive to all of the island's best dining and shopping.

Within a mile or two, you can enjoy dining and live music at The Surf or Slider's, or ice cream from several local treat spots.

To the north, you will find Main Beach which features the Salt Life and Sandbar Kitchen restaurants, a playground, and beachside putt putt golf. From there, Amelia Island's downtown historic district is just a short drive down Atlantic Avenue. There you will find plenty of wonderful restaurants, shopping, nightlife and local culture. Fort Clinch State Park is also located along Atlantic Avenue. The park features the 19th century Fort Clinch (still open to the public for tours), a great beach, and lots of beautiful trails for hiking or biking.

The South end of the island boasts several wonderful restaurants, the Ritz and Omni resorts, a picturesque canopy biking trail, and charming local boutiques. We recommend checking out the Ritz spa if you are looking for a relaxing treat!

Getting Around:

Amelia Island is a small area and is easy to navigate! There is free parking available throughout the entire island, making driving very easy to any place you choose to visit.

Although Uber/Lyft are not very reliable on the island (we strongly recommend bringing a car), they are available through the app on your smartphone.

Bike rentals are available at "The Beach Store" located 1 mile north of the Turtle Loft. Riptide Watersports also delivers bikes.

Lovely Town Home
The property was very clean, wonderful beach front view, and the layout was super efficient. A couple of drawbacks: The staircase could be difficult if not paying attention (70+ folks). The humidifier in the bedroom closet made noises that kept my husband from sleeping the first night...didn't do this for the remaining three. The cookware was just awful. We make breakfast and the frying pans were garbage. Also, the bathroom was very small but not a deal breaker. We're average height. Might be a problem for taller people.

Great trip, loud neighbors
We had a lovely time staying at this condo on Amelia Island. The unit was very clean, with great access to everything the island has to offer. Our plans were almost derailed by Hurricane Milton (highly recommend purchasing travel insurance!), but we were fortunate that the weather stayed on our side. The layout of the condo is ideal for couples or small families. However, if you have mobility issues, take note that the bathroom at the front of the condo has small steps that might be inconvenient. The only downside to our stay was an unpleasant encounter with a large group that rented the unit directly above us. Their deck was right above our bedroom, and they partied loudly, moving furniture and shouting as if they were at an MTV Beach Bash circa 1998. Unfortunately, they were still making noise at 5:30 AM, waking both us and our neighbors, which ruined our last day. Overall, the condo itself was very nice, but we likely won’t return due to the disruption caused by the party-goers

Great mini vacation at the Turtle Loft
This property was just as beautiful as it looked in the pictures. It was clean and very quaint. It had a private dock that lead to the beach which had an awesome sunrise and sunset view. I would definitely stay here again. The parking was a little tight, but manageable. The host answered any questions in a timely manner.

Turtle Loft
Turtle Loft was awesome! Perfect place for me and the wife. Essentially a private beach. Great location on the island, close access to restaurants and grocery. The bath room is small but was no issue. One suggestion would be to change out the swivel club chair with a loveseat. Or maybe change the coffee table table to a cushioned top coffee table. Overall the place was perfect and identical to the pics. Enjoyed our stay and would use it again.

Lovely Beach Escape
My hubby and I stayed here for a quick anniversary trip. We didn’t want to leave! The space is perfect for a couple and the beach views were awesome! We also loved how close we were to the beach- just steps away. The property was well maintained, comfortable, and modern, with both a front patio and a balcony where you can sit and enjoy the salty air and watch the waves. The bed is super comfortable too. The owner was just a text away and very accessible. We had a wonderful trip and plan to stay here again!
