Not Shipwatch review
Even though this unit was booked, I was contacted by the rental company and was told it was compromised with water intrusion from Hurricane Debby. My wife and I were switched to another property and charged an additional $240+. The property we stayed in was an upstairs unit with 3 bedrooms. There was only the 2 of us. Water stains were on the ceiling in the dining area. The smoke detector had been disconnected and left atop the refrigerator. The interior was dated but it did have a nice view. I'm not that picky about a dated interior but wonder if the switch in units was valid since we were charged additional for the inconvenience. Again, not a review of Shipwatch but that is my only option to review with VRBO since that is what I booked.

deferred maintenance
1385 Shipwatch was a nice unit with an excellent view of the ocean. However, cleanliness was poor and there was much deferred maintenance.. Grime and grit were in the bathrooms. Floors were black with dirt, mold on the shower curtains and mold on the dining chair cushions. Return air vents in the hallway literally had dirt falling of it. The sliding screen door in the second bedroom was falling off the track and too precarious to open. Draperies need to be properly hung. Kitchen needs a good cleaning, stove not clean. Kitchen was poorly equipped. Bathroom fixtures need to be replaced. It wouldn't take much to get this unit shining. It looks as if no one is checking on housekeeping. There is a minimal amount of cleaning being done. The upright dresser in the second bedroom is in bad shape. The top drawer cannot be pulled open without falling on the floor. The Lampshade has hopes in it as well as considerable chipped paint.

Great location and value
Property has some deferred maintenance but over-all is a good value. Spacious, well equipped, and RIGHT ON the beach, with a big heated pool. We're coming back.

Nice stay on a beautiful beach
My sister and I were really happy with the big condo and its glorious view of the Atlantic. We both had large bedrooms and our own bathrooms, along with the spacious living room, great balcony and easy-to-use kitchen. Our main qualm was that things were not quite as clean and well-maintained as they should have been. The tile floor was dirty (you could tell if you walked across it barefoot) and not all the surfaces were dusted. (There was a layer of dust, for example, on the glass coffee table.) A couple of the light bulbs were out, and the chandelier over the dining-room table was wonky: It dimmed and brightened of its own accord, and the bulbs didn't match. Also, we read in a previous comment that the guests couldn't figure out how to use the TVs; neither could we. PLEASE, leave some instructions. None of these little things ruined our stay, of course, but they added up to a place that needs some TLC. We loved the location, the quiet, and the space, and we loved poking around Fernandina Beach and eating at several terrific restaurants. We'd love to come back, once you get a few things sorted out.

Beautiful view
Lovely property with a beautiful view. I was a little disappointed in the cleanliness of the place. It felt like they only cleaned what was necessary. Bathrooms could use some updates but all in all, it was a great place to stay for the price. I would definitely stay here again!

Enjoyed the condo.
Very clean and access to beach was great. Pool was excellent and clean. Only suggestion is bathrooms need updating with new faucet and shower fixtures --- they are old and worn badly. Also, door knob on outside of door to patio is corroded and in great need of replacement. Otherwise, kitchen, furniture in den and bedrooms was nice. We enjoyed the condo and would stay again.

Beautiful view and great condo
We really enjoyed our stay. There was confusion in the beginning due to the listing stating an occupancy of 6 people to include a convertible sofa bed. Upon arrival, we determined there was no sofa bed. The management company was very good about rectifying the situation. They delivered a brand new air mattress and linens to accommodate our needs. Overall we enjoyed our time very much and hope to return.

Beautifully furnished apartment in a well upkept older community
The condo was beautifully furnished, the kitchen equipment (pans) could use some upgrading. The dishwasher did not wash properly. I notified the management company of this and other issues and they did not respond. It was a holiday at the end of our stay so we are not upset, but would be upset if we went back and the dishwasher was still there. It was a challenge to get to the beach with 2 dogs, a tent, and chairs. Lots of steps to beach across a golf course hole and many steps. Elevator did not take you to where you could roll luggage up, there were six stairs after elevator to get to appt. Other than pans/dishwasher and the steps it was a great stay.

Holiday Getaway
The unit was very nicely decorated and relatively well stocked. Great view. Very clean and no maintenance issues. The Plantation is a wonderful place for a family vacation and an easy drive to many restaurants and shops. I would suggest including directions on how the multiple TV remotes work. If my techie son hadn’t been with me, I would have been stuck. Definitely will look to book this unit again on our next visit.
