Perfect for families looking for a relaxing beach vacation, away from the crowds and high rise condos.

Clean off after a day at the beach at the hot & cold water outdoor shower or clean your catch of the day at the outdoor fish cleaning station. If you like a fancy newly built beach house Ocean Whisper is not what you want - it is a quaint 1930s beach house with new amenities. Bed linens and bath towels are included. The linen service supplies only one pillowcase per person so bring extras if you use more than one pillow. Loaded with lots of family games. I cant say which ones as that changes depending on how the games are put away. Quick, easy walk across sandy lane to the dune walkover, and voila, you are on miles of pristine, uncrowded sandy beach. Easy for a morning stroll with your coffee or tea, easy to head in at lunch for a quick break from the sun. There used to be a wooden stair at the walk-over but it has been removed and now there is only a sandy path. Historic downtown Fernandina Beach is 2 miles west--a quick drive or a healthy bike ride to many high quality restaurants, art galleries, shopping, fishing, and historical tours. The variety of restaurants ranges from casual burgers to fancy French, and everything in between. Several supermarkets, Walmart, Alvin's Island and all the other shops like Walgreens etc. are on island and with in a 5 minute drive. Groups looking for a location to have a loud rambunctious time will not do well here as the neighbors will call us to complain and they will call the police. This is a family friendly mellow location great for healthy, peaceful and fun family getaways. We are located 0.7 miles from the outdoor salt water pool at the Atlantic Ave Recreation Center. ******ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT BOOKING ********* MAKE SURE YOU REVIEW ******* We use ERA Realty to manage our property. The front door opens with a code that ERA will send to you at check in time on the day of check in. To make a reservation, you need to contact me first to request booking dates. Once I either accept your reservation request or I forward you a quote and invitation to book which you accept and that complets the reservation and VRBO forwards me your contact information which I will forward along with the fees to ERA Realty. ERA will them forward you the rental agreement and other check-in information. You will then return the rental agreement to ERA within 10 days. I think for the most part they forward you the rental agreement by email. When you send me a reservation request or just an inquiry, I will forward you a response that includes a quote of the rental amount including all fees and taxes. The various fees included are the non-refundable ERA $50.00 booking fee and the non-refundable ERA $50.00 damage waiver fee that covers up to $1500.00 in property damage. Please note that the $50 ERA Booking fee is non refundable if you cancel at any time. As well, VRBO will charge you a service fee based on the rental amount and will debit that amount from your credit card. The rental fee and all other fees are now required by VRBO to be paid through their site. VRBO also applies a fee to the payments you make through VRBO which fee is paid by us. We used to have you pay ERA directly but now, when the booking is made through VRBO's web site, the payments must be made through their site. We require two payments, the first is due immediately upon me accepting your reservation request or you accepting my invitation to book. The final payment is due 30 days before your stay starts. Our 30 day cancellation refund policy applies to stays of less than two weeks. For stays of 12 days or more (or that encompass two weekends) we apply a three month cancellation policy. We do this because it is very difficult to re-rent two or more weeks in 30 days. To make a reservation two weeks or more I will have to turn off the VRBO cancelation policy. VRBO does not have a three month option so I can only choose the no cancel option. However, your rental agreement from ERA Realty will indicate that you can cancel three months before your stay starts. Rental License # 3256
