Duke's Beach House | Oceanfront | Huge Deck | Breathtaking Views

Duke’s Beach House (Sleeps 13) | 4 Bedroom / 3.5 Bathroom with 4 Private Decks

This gorgeous beachfront property offers the perfect combination of luxurious amenities and breathtaking views, making it the perfect place to escape and unwind. Enjoy the tastefully updated finishes and hand-selected furnishings as you relax on any of the four private decks and take in the stunning panoramic views of the ocean, sunrise, and sunset. With 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, Duke’s Beach House can comfortably accommodate friends and family and provide plenty of space for everyone.

The beach house is centrally located on Amelia Island and recently underwent an extensive renovation. Ocean views can be seen from the entire second floor, which features a large private deck facing the beach, along with a large open concept living room and kitchen.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a bright and comfortable family room featuring a sofa sleeper with a memory foam mattress, a smart TV with cable, and comfortable seating options. In addition, the first level boasts 3 large, updated bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The master bedroom features a king-sized bed, beautiful ocean views, a private deck, an oversized closet, and a smart TV with cable. The master bathroom is fully updated with a large walk-in shower, a double quartz vanity, and plush towels. There are two additional bedrooms with queen-sized beds and large closets that share a Jack & Jill bathroom. The Jack & Jill bathroom has been fully updated and features a tub/shower combo. The first level has an additional newly remodeled full bathroom with a walk-in shower. Both the 3rd bathroom and laundry room (which contains an additional refrigerator/freezer) are located just off the family room.

The second floor contains the kitchen, two large decks, the main living room, and an additional bedroom. As you head up the stairs to this floor, you are greeted by the panoramic ocean views and open layout. This level features a large dining table perfect for gathering with your friends and family after a long day at the beach. The updated chef’s kitchen features soft-close cabinets/drawers, quartz countertops, bar seating, stainless steel appliances, and all of the cooking essentials needed for hosting a large family or preparing a gourmet meal. The spacious living room has a large sectional couch (queen sleeper sofa) that faces the ocean and two additional swivel chairs. In addition to nearly wall-to-wall windows overlooking the ocean, the living room features a double-opening sliding door so you can enjoy the ocean breeze. Your kids will love the bunkroom that is located just off of the living room. It contains three twin XL bunks that are perfect for a sleepover after a day in the sand. Finally, there is a powder room for your convenience.

Decks and Porches

• Large Ocean Facing Deck: This large deck is the highlight of the house! Facing the ocean and accessed from the living room, the deck is large enough for your entire group to gather. The deck features a gas grill, lounge chairs, an oversized dining table, and Adirondack chairs. The deck is perfect for catching the sunrise, along with views up and down the beach - you cannot beat this space!
• West Facing Deck: This west-facing deck is located on the second floor between the kitchen and living room. It is perfect for catching sunsets!
• Shaded Front Porch w/Rocking Chairs: This deck is located on the first floor and spans the whole front of the house. It is filled with rocking chairs, including two kid-sized rockers. This shaded deck is ideal for those times when you need a break from the sun!
• Master Bedroom Deck: This ocean-view deck is accessed through a sliding door in the master bedroom. It has two chairs and a small table that are perfect for enjoying your morning coffee!

Enjoy the sound of the waves and the ever-changing colors of the sky as you escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life at Duke's Beach House!

Neighborhood Overview:

Duke’s Beach House 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.

Our 2nd stay was perfect

Our family of 6 and our dog stayed for a week. It was our second time renting and it was just as perfect as we remembered. The layout of the house is great for a big family and the deck is just beautiful. We spent most of our time there. The house was exceptionally clean and well stocked. We will definitely be returning.

Amazing property, conveniently located

From the write up, our expectations were high. I’m happy to report that everything was as advertised or better! Plenty of space for our family of 6 plus dog. Immediate, private access to beach and adjacent to a local favorite restaurant. We’ve been renting properties since 2012 in Amelia Island and is the best we’ve found. We would stay there again anytime!

Spacious and Comfortable

Over five days at Duke's Beautiful Beach House, we had room for privacy if we wanted to read or nap, and room for togetherness (inside or outside) to eat meals, play board games, watch Wimbledon finals, and see the sunrise on a huge deck. Plus plenty of additional deck space for our beach paraphernalia. All of us, including Teddy, a miniature dachshund, made super memories!

Beautiful place/iffy parking

Wonderfully clean, amazing views, great location. We only had one problem. Parking. We had two cars, but were allotted three spots. Unfortunately, because we had extended family, most of us came down in one large SUV (lincoln aviator). My brother and his wife flew in and had rented a truck, not realizing how big it would be (New Yorkers!-Dodge Ram) The spots in the back do not have a enough room to safely navigate in and out of spots, especially if full. We had issues even though we should have had an extra spot. The spots in front are fine, but there are only four and sometimes compact cars would take them. The cleaners and other staff also frequently take the front spots. We had a couple times we had to kill time to park until a bunch a people checked out midweek. At a minimum, a sign encouraging smaller vehicles to take the spots behind the rental could help. If you book be aware that larger/longer vehicles might be a pain.
