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!

We enjoyed our stay at Turtle Dunes! It was beautiful and a short easy walk to the beach or pool.

Our condo was perfect and beautiful. We enjoyed watching the dolphins everyday and taking long walks on the beach. We loved that the beach was not crowded and enjoyed the peacefulness each day. We would love to return!

Beautiful view and great place

The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. Beautiful view and great location to pool and beach access so worked well with kids. Only negative was that the confo is last one in the property so takes awhile to get to it once you go thru security gate. Restaurants are longer drive if you want to eat off the Omni resort spots. Overall great condo and experience

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.

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.

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.

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 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
