The Lazy Turtle Too (Next Door to Original) Vacation Rental - Amelia Island

Life is better at the beach! Relax and rejuvenate in our 3 bedroom/2 bath condo. Retreat to the master with king bed, smart TV and a private bath. We are located in a very quiet and secluded setting under the oak trees at the back of the resort complex. Our 1,100 square foot, second floor condo has vaulted ceilings, skylights, luxury vinyl plank floors, and a bright, airy feeling. There is NO ELEVATOR and you must be able to navigate stairs to access our condo. Come enjoy the beach!

The amenities include:

*A designated parking space (& additional visitor space)

*Central air/heat

*KING size bed in master

*Smart TV in master

*Third bedroom can be converted from 2 twins to short king

*High speed cable and wireless internet

*Smart tv in Living Room

*Large capacity washer and dryer (detergent provided)

*Linens, towels and beach towels provided

*Approximately 30-40 minutes to JAX International Airport.

I was mislead on the location and the commutation with the host was absolutely unacceptable

I requested the proximity of the TPC sawgrass and was told 29 min. It was actually 79 minutes. After an apology from the host I requested a refund after the first night stay and never received a response.

TVs and Remotes

We were challenged with operating the remotes for the living room TV and while we did get on to the TV eventually the sound went away and the alternate remote had sound options did not work. In the master bedroom nothing worked. We worked around it by using closed captions and reading the conversationsOur suggestions are 1) have your housekeepers test the remotes and replace batteries 2). It would be helpful to have a guide in your welcome package to operate the TVs. We have never used ROKU however are familiar with streaming services but we were lostWe enjoyed the space, it suited our overall needs Thank you

Girls Trip

Friends since kindergarten and before get together every year and this year Amelia Island was our choice. Our condo at the Lazy Turtle Too was great. Our hosts was very gracious when we contacted them. The walk to the beach was not accessible for a bunch of 76 year old ladies but they were within a short car ride. We found it easy to get around and a good time was had by all.

Great trip

We come to Amelia every year and always stay at Forest Ridge. This was our first time in this unit and we will definitely be back. Everything was clean and there was plenty of room for my husband, 2 kids and I. We were happy there were beach chairs and beach towels to use. We had a great time.

Fantastic Sister Trip!

This property was perfect for our sister trip (4 of us)! The location is quiet and feels secluded, but it's only a short walk to the beach & close to restaurants, the grocery & other shops. The property was very clean & the kitchen was well equipped for all of our meals. We recommend this rental! Also, check out Ghost Tours of Amelia Island, Amelia Island Board Rentals & Amelia River Cruises!

Best Forest Ridge Condo

Looking for peace, tranquility, and a renovated condo? Look no further. We have stayed in a dozen Forest Ridge condos over the years and the is was by far our favorite. It is located in the back of the condo which for us was a benefit even though the trek to the beach was longer. It was so quiet and private compared to other condos in the complex. We highly recommend this condo and will certainly be back next year!

Perfect trip!

We had a great visit! The condo was a perfect size for our group of 5. The kitchen was well stocked with all the things we needed to cook meals. They also have beach chairs and beach toys to use. It was all very clean. My kids enjoyed the little playground on property, the pool, and feeding lettuce to the turtles in the pond. Beach access is definitely walkable from the condo, but we opted to drive because my 75 year old mom was with us. We went to Burney Park on American Beach and Main Beach Park and found ample parking at both. The condo is also a quick drive to downtown, Boneyard Beach, and Fort Clinch. Fort Clinch is not to be missed if you want to collect some beautiful seashells. We met the owners Andy and Sandy on our visit and they were so kind and welcoming! We'd definitely stay in The Lazy Turtle Too again!

No serious issues. Only comments are: the unit could use a new broom and the rug in the main bathroom is a hazard as it has no backing and slips around easily. We stashed it in the closet.
