About this apartment rental

(Please note: We DO NOT
accept Instant Booking. We prefer that our guests take the time to introduce themselves to us before we accept a reservation. We are known for hosting with a personal touch and like to apply it where possible for our guests.)

Imagine yourself relaxing in a prominent penthouse between the ocean dunes and a beautiful Amelia Island oak canopy located within the Amelia Island Plantation.

As you enter into the comfort of this inviting vacation get away, you are immediately drawn to the expanding ocean view which can be appreciated from a private balcony that spans the entire width of the villa. You can also view the beautiful Atlantic Ocean from the plush comfort of the king size bed. Enjoy the sunrises and watch the dolphin playing just beyond the sight and sound of ocean waves.

(Our goal is to help you create beautiful memories that last a lifetime. We offer a concierge service for guests desiring to add a personal touch to their vacation with a bottle of wine, charcuterie tray, flowers etc.... Please let us know 1 week prior to arrival if you want more details about this service.)

Just steps from the complex await the soft, sandy beaches, a refreshing swimming pool, as well as nature paths for hiking and biking. A short stroll south of the Sandcastles, is a boardwalk that meanders through the plantation's Sunken Forest, which provides various vantage points for viewing wildlife and picture taking of the beaches. Also located within the plantation are salt marshes which are great for kayaking, parks with picnic tables and grills to facilitate your vacation pleasure.

After a day of play, there are local shops and dining for all tastes or you may want to consider a massage at the spa within the resort.

Regardless of season, this Sandcastle property is a welcomed retreat, only minutes away from Historic Fernandina, which offers additional dining, shopping, and recreational venues.

We understand that sleeping in a comfortable bed is very important. The king size bed has a new Serta Perfect Sleeper mattress; Not too hard or too soft, enveloped with Egyptian cotton sheets. We feel this combination will provide a restful sleep, allowing you to awaken refreshed.

As first time Vrbo users, we scoured the online listings and settled on the Compass Rose as our home away at Amelia. From the second we walked in the door, we were welcomed with cookies, a personal note and the view!!! Absolutely stunning! The condo is beautifully updated and appointed. You really can see the ocean from every room! Tanya and Mark have thought of everything to make the Compass Rose a top notch accommodation. We can’t wait to return!

This was our first trip to Amelia Island. It was everything we had hoped and more! This place is everything you see in the pictures. It was like walking into home...warm and inviting...right down to the homemade chocolate chip cookies. We loved the balcony and waking up to the beautiful sunrises. There is a Shibumi and chairs for the beach which made enjoying the beach so easy. We chose to put our money into adventures (chartered boat tour and horseback riding) than lots of eating out. The well stocked kitchen made that so easy. Exploring the island and surrounding areas was awesome. We can't wait to return to do some of the things we didn't get to on this trip. They are truly 5 star hosts!

This rental had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. The accommodations were immaculate and well appointed. The hosts were very attentive and made sure all of our needs were met. The location of the villa is perfect with few people along that stretch of the beach…even in July!

We were on Amelia Island for the week looking for a new home. We had never stayed on the South end of the beach. We loved it! The condo has been renovated to perfection. The beach is wide and the sand is soft. We tried new restaurants that we didn’t know existed. And, we potentially found a home and may be making Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island our home.

This was our first trip to Amelia Island and what a perfect place to stay that Compass Rose turned out to be! Thank you for your great hospitality. We saw every sunrise from the perfect balcony and enjoyed the uncrowded beach every day. We took a couple of trips to Fernandina Beach and a walk through Ft. Clinch State Park and enjoyed some great meals including The Boathouse, Salty Pelican, Falcon Nest, and especially Baxter’s. We’ve been to a lot of places in Florida and elsewhere, but now it’s hard to think of going anywhere else. Already looking forward to coming back! Chris & Amy (Indiana)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo. Everything was perfect. We really appreciated the little extras like cold bottled water, fresh chocolate chip cookies, and many other things which were provided for us. The condo was well decorated and extremely clean. The view from the balcony was fantastic. We hope to stay here again when we come to Amelia Island.

We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend at the beach in style. We have stayed several times at Sandcastles on the Omni Resort but this has been the best unit with the Penthouse suite.
