NEWLY RENOVATED! Cute Shipwatch Villa in Gated Resort With Easy Beach and Pool Access!

Step into the lovely condo 1321 Shipwatch, and feel the worries of the world melting away. This 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom property is beautifully appointed, recently updated, and tucked into the oceanfront Shipwatch complex in the award-winning, gated Amelia Island Plantation. Come enjoy a romantic getaway, a golf weekend, or just a quiet retreat on the beach!

If you're planning to dine in, guests can easily whip up snacks or cook their meals in the freshly-renovated and fully-equipped kitchen featuring brand-new quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. Seating options include three stools at the kitchen island or a circular dining table for four.

The living area offers stylish, comfortable furnishings for delving into your latest novel or watching your favorite TV programming. High-speed Wi-Fi is included for the modern traveller. When it's time to rest, the bedroom has all the comforts of home — a king bed, a flat-screen TV, a large dresser for unpacking your belongings, a spacious closet, and a fully remodeled bathroom. When needed, there's also a sleeper sofa in the living room.

The renovations completed in late 2024 include new flooring, fresh paint, expanding the closet space, installing a new hot water heater, a new AC unit, new TVs, and new major appliances.

While this Shipwatch condo does not offer ocean views or any private outdoor living space like a balcony, it offers one of the easiest locations within the complex for accessing the Shipwatch amenities.

Amenities include the spacious Shipwatch complex pool that is just a short walk away. This beautiful pool is heated during parts of the year and offers a large deck for finding shade. There is a community grilling area, picnic tables, and a bike rack available for guests as well.

Guests can also enjoy the walking and biking trails that weave throughout the Amelia Island Plantation (AIP.) This sprawling community is 1,340 acres and is surrounded by maritime forests, tidal salt marshes and pristine, sandy beaches. Rent bikes or a golf cart through a local vendor to explore even further.

1321 Shipwatch is conveniently located for partaking in the dining, shopping, and spa services offered at the Omni Amelia Island Resort, located within the AIP. Golf is also available at Little Sandy and Oak Marsh right within the AIP.

For guests convenience, there's a washer and dryer, an iron and ironing board, and beach towels. All bed and bath linens are provided.

As part of this rental, a custom digital guestbook is provided with thorough property information and a local area guide sharing our favorite restaurants, attractions, and more! Excitingly, our guests are also eligible to receive a 15% discount on beach gear rentals.

*Please be advised this property is not a rental through the Omni Amelia Island Resort and does not give you access to "resort privileges or amenities.” This means there is restricted access to the main Omni hotel pool, fitness center, and shuttle service, and that Racquet Park only offers free play to club members and their guests. We will gladly answer any questions about area activities and our amenities.
During your stay at this condo building, you'll be within walking distance of American Beach. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the condo.

April Vacation
The property was very clean and organized. The pool and beach were close by which was awesome. Just an FYI, the condo did have a musty/mildew type smell. It would have also been nice to have upgraded beach chairs and an umbrella. Other than those few things we would definitely come back. Regards, Marianne

Love Amelia Island.
I have to say this is a very beautiful property inside and out. The location is a bit south of the main town, but worth it. Even for a 4th of July holiday weekend it was extremely quiet. Only two things I would recommend for the owner. 1. Purchase a parking slot for the Apt if you can, parking in the street sucks. 2. Since we are not allowed to lower the temp of the AC below 72 and there are no ceiling fans, 72 still feels extremely hot at night with no air flow. Providing a fan or two would be helpful.

Great for a short trip
The condo was nice and clean. If you’re looking for a balcony or ocean view, skip this condo. We were ok with that on this short trip. My only complaint is that the mattress in the sleeper sofa was disgusting. It smelled bad and was extremely lumpy/warped so we just closed it right back up. So, if you’re counting the sleeper sofa as a place for someone to sleep, you’ll be very disappointed. It is not close to adequate for someone to sleep on. Other than that, we enjoyed our trip.

Little gem
Shipwatch is a great condo property. Clean, nice view, easy beach access. The condo is good for a couple or single. It has no balcony, but steps to the properties pool and nice outside space. Bathroom is small but ok. A bar at the end on wall would be helpful. The kitchen is fully equipped and great.

Honeymoon Trip
The condo appeared as advertised, and everything was clean and comfortable. It was just the right size for our honeymoon! The batteries were dead in the TV remote, but the manager sent someone out right away with replacements! Great customer service! The property was lovely and well kept-we were able to enjoy the pool in early October as well.

Property is very dated.
This property needs updates to get it more current. This is especially true in the bathroom. Still has the original cast iron tub and a cramped bathroom not real functional for more than one person in the residence.

Comfortable condo
I stayed 6 nights at this lovely one bedroom condo. Everything was just as advertised. Comfortable furniture, a well equipped kitchen and great location. Destination Amelia was wonderful. I had a minor mishap when checking in that they easily rectified and even followed up the next day to make sure I everything I needed. I'd stay here again!

Great Location/Nice Place
Negatives: Floor could have used a good cleaning but this was noticed by my spouse not me. Bathroom could use an upgrade. Would like to see a little more info on how to use TV but we figured it out. Price seem a little steep but I am not terribly familiar with the going rates. Positives: Overall layout and appointments (furniture, appliances, decoration) were very nice. Location near the beach and the scenery excellent. Beach was great. It was nice being able to go the the bars and restaurants inside the resort area (walking distance for several). Overall: Recommended

Excellent location but mold issues
This older condo is in a really good location (beach front tho the unit faces a parking lot on the opposite side of the building), is cute but the smell of mold in the unit was bad. The kitchen sink area, wet-bar in the bedroom and the bathroom all smelled of mold. We only stayed 4 nights so just toughed it out. It was a comfortable unit otherwise… The bed was comfy the pillows could use a refresh. The sofa was nice but could be deeper. Lots of little extras for things that were nice to have when cooking etc. Again a great location and a cute set up for a couple but the mold was a big issue for us.
