Girls Weekend

The house was the perfect size for our annual girls weekend! We appreciated the openness of the main living area and enjoyed the screened in porch. Location was close to beach, shopping and all the necessities. Brian was very responsive to our questions and checked in with us to make sure all was going well. I would highly recommend for anyone to stay here!

Buccaneer Bungalow -- best VRBO experience we've ever had

We were on Amelia Island and the Jacksonville area for our son's wedding weekend. We needed a place that was easy to access, had all the amenities (and updated, nice amenities, I might add) and could accommodate 4-5 couples. Buccaneer Bungalow checked all those boxes and then some. First, the open kitchen leading into the open living room with plenty of seating and a huge kitchen island gave us a place to congreate in the mornings and at night -- perfect for big groups who want more time interacting. Just off the kitchen is the screen in patio. I'm the Dad of this group and had work to do, so the screened in patio was a perfect office space to get away but still see what's going on inside. The bathrooms/showers are relatively newly remodeled, so their big, bright and luxurious. Same with the kitchen and appliances.The location was great, too. We're runners and wanted to run on the beach in the mornings. I didn't measure the distance exactly, but there was an easy mile or so run through a neighborhood before we were on the beach. We got in 4 mile runs each morning and that's just about perfect for us. We are also eaters, and once again the location was great. We were just minutes drive from historic Fernandina Beach with all of its great restaurants and bars.Finally, the owner/manager/host Brian was outstanding. Not too much, not too little. As the title of this review says, this was the best rental experience ever.

Very special family reunion at a wonderful spot

We enjoyed our stay at Buccaneer Bungalow. We appreciated the number of spaces that were available for us to gather both inside and out the well appointed property. The Ping Pong table, barbeque, swing, games, firepit - all added to our family fun. We even used the bikes to ride along the beach. The spacious and open front room/ dining/ kitchen area was wonderful for our large gathering. Kitchen was well equipped with plenty of dishes for eating. There was plenty of room for parking and easy accessibility to the beach and groceries. The owner was very responsive and considerate. The home provided a welcome for us all.

Weekend with Old friends

The house worked well for 6 men who travel annually for a NFL football game. The Amelia Island location was terrific to enjoy the home, screened in porch, backyard and the very well appointed kitchen to cook. We were thrilled to be within a 20 minute walk to the Atlantic ocean and use the 4 beach bikes for those who preferred. The beach equipment - belly boards, chairs, etc. made it fun for all of us. In October we had the beach to ourselves even though it was 80+ degrees every day. We also enjoyed the more laid back vibe of Fernandina Beach with its restaurants and cocktail bars which are a short drive. Brian was an awesome host. Very responsive, helpful and willing to assist in any way. Thank you!!

We usually try for a beachfront property but discovered the Buccaneer Bungalow and very happy with our decision. Super clean, with a large open floor plan, that flows to the screened in porch. Furnishings are modern the kitchen and baths look new overall it’s a very cool vibe. Well stocked with entertainment options. Brian is a super host very responsive and accommodating. Location is great easy to downtown FB, beaches, airport and state parks. Peter’s Point park is walkable or take the bikes! Awesome hotdog truck one block over, a coffee shop and Harris Teeters also nearby. Coastal oaks shade the yard. Stop looking, book the Buccaneer Bungalow!

This place was perfect for our group of five adults and could have easily handled nearly three times as many people. The open kitchen/dining/living areas gave us so much room to spread out.

Perfection!

We rented Buccaneer Bungalow for the wedding of our niece. We are a challenging crew-- everything from teens to toddlers to adults, and there are a lot of us! Brian was super responsive to any question we had, so welcoming (let us check in early when we realized last minute we actually had to be at the rehearsal at 4pm!) and soooo easy to work with. The house is just as pictured and then some. Beautiful open kitchen and family room. Bathrooms are gorgeous. Super clean, super well stocked -- a bottle of wine to welcome us, COFFEE PODS FOR THE KEURIG!!???, books and toys for the kids (I'm not kidding, there is a dress up box with princess and pirate garb!), and a ping pong table beside the fire pit. There is literally something for everyone and the location was in walking distance to our beautiful venue. The owners also solicit feedback for how they can make their home more accommodating. I never leave reviews but I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again when we return to Amelia Island. This home and the owner are really excellent!
