The Willis: Dog Friendly, Ocean/Sound View Condo, Near Beach

Lounge in one of the three large outside decks at The Willis or take a three-minute stroll over the sand dunes to the ocean. Just steps from the beach, this raised first floor 2000 square foot single-level condo offers ocean and sound views from inside as well as the outside decks.

The Willis is a spacious, open-concept that connects the living room, cook's kitchen, and dining area, featuring hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and a flatscreen Smart TV—perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

Take in ocean views from the dining area or step out onto the living room deck, where you can also enjoy sights of the sound. The well-appointed kitchen includes plenty of counter space, granite countertops, and a breakfast bar with seating.

Each of the three bedrooms features a private bath and deck. The primary suite includes a king bed and a luxurious bathroom with a garden tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks. The second bedroom offers a queen bed, while the third has two twin beds.

Additional conveniences include ceiling fans throughout and a separate utility room with a washer and dryer. There is a large backyard, gas grill and outdoor shower on the ground level where you can unwind from a day at the beach while grilling freshly caught seafood or, if you prefer, take a short walk to one of the island's most popular restaurants—Amos Mosquitos, Oceanana Pier House and Island Grill.

This quiet old neighborhood has multiple beach access points on to one of the least crowded Atlantic Beach shores. With the beach just a short walk away and free WiFi included, you'll have everything you need to relax, unwind, and share your favorite coastal moments.

We are also pet friendly so bring the pup and let them enjoy spending time at the beach with their favorite humans.

Spacious

This is the most spacious place we have ever stayed! Everyone had their own space, and great open layout for everyone to be able to be together. And the beach is 2 blocks away, and is not packed with beachgoers. Will be staying here again!

Highly recommend!

This house was perfectly laid out, beautifully furnished with all of the amenities you will need. Conveniently located to shopping, dining, etc., yet you are in a low traffic area and it is very quiet.

Beautiful condo!

The condo was absolutely beautiful! The open floor plan was great for family time, the kitchen was fully stocked so we could cook easily, and the balconies were perfect for our morning coffee! Just a short walk to the beach, and the provided wagon was great for bringing all our stuff down the the water. Would definitely stay there again!

Spacious, clean and well stocked

We loved the large family area, the well stocked kitchen and the eclectic furnishings. Loved all the porches, but none have roofs so cushions get wet. Great direct beach access. Ample parking. Could walk to Amos Mosquito restaurant.

The condo lay out was wonderful!! Plenty of room, master bedroom was at one end and other two at opposite end. This place had more appliances, cookware, pot, pans and everything a kitchen needs and more. A pretty good hike to beach but not awful. We would definitely stay there again!!

Beautiful condo

There was nothing that we needed that we couldn't find in this lovely condo. It was in a great location with lovely views. Our only complaints would be a lack of outside lighting (particularly at the parking level) and that most of the locks were difficult to operate.

Great place to stay at the beach.

This was our 4th year at the Willis. Only issue is some minor repairs have still not been made. Biggest issue is that all the door locks do not work as they should. And there are a lot of doors. Still, an awesome place and we will be back!

Great option if you are looking to stay somewhere other than a large condo complex. Size of the condo is wonderful. Space for many guests. Large kitchen and full size washer and dryer in the unit. Located in a quiet area close to restaurants and other local attractions. Walk to the beach is good for adults. If you have small children and have to take a lot to the beach, you may want to reconsider. Beach is not super crowded, which we loved. Overall, good stay!

Loved our Honeymoon

We loved our stay at The Willis for our honeymoon along with our dog Bella ! I can’t express enough how much we enjoyed the house, beach and surrounding areas! Our honeymoon was perfect! Thank you for providing us with a clean, spacious and beautiful place to stay !! The layout of this home and decor was absolutely beautiful! So welcoming! During our trip we took a couple different ferry rides to islands which we enjoyed so much ! Also drove to surrounding towns that were all so lovely! So many places nearby just a short drive. Also short walk to beach and nice beach access ramp. Thank you for having us, we want to stay at this home again asap! We are so happy with our stay!!

Great Space but not Secure

The house was spacious, however, not secure the locks were really hard to lock spent more than half of our vacation trying to get into the house each time we left. Also need to be shades on the back doors when you sit in the living room you are on display for the neighbors to see as the house next door is three feet from those doors and the neighbors are always out on their patio. Also, there were cockroaches in the bathroom. Vacca has the worst customer service EVER. I would not recommend them.
