“I'd visit again!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

Had the opportunity to visit the Omni last weekend. We had an ocean view room. The hotel is beautiful, the room was comfortable, the view was unbelievable. The hotel is undergoing some construction right now on a new convention center - should be fabulous. Didn't dampen our fun. We had a cocktail party at the golf clubhouse - beautiful sunset, fire pit, good food, good friends.

Thank you for the wonderful comments and rating! Sounds like everything you experienced from the rooms to the view to the club house cocktail party - was all around fabulous - and we could not be happier for you to share that. By the sounds of your review title, you will be visiting again - we look forward it!

“Beautiful place to have a meeting or spend a vacation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

The Omni Amelia Island Plantation Resort was a beautiful place - set between large live oaks with Spanish moss and the beautiful beach. The hotel and its meeting facilities were great and I think each room has a view of the ocean. Our room was wonderful and was nicely appointed and well-cared for by the housekeeping staff. There was a fair amount of construction going on at the time, but the hotel and restaurants and meeting facilities were functioning without missing a step. The golf courses were outstanding and the food service at the restaurants was excellent. As part of our meeting, the hotel provided a beach party one evening with excellent food and entertainment by some of the activities staff. This was quite a distinctive experience. All in all, this was a beautiful facility and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we would return in a heartbeat.

Its so nice to hear how much you enjoyed our location, oceanfront accommodations, function space and culinary options - all things we pride ourselves upon - despite the current renovations taking place. We look forward to hosting you again whether it is for another company excursion or a personal vacation.

“Improvements are amazing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 29, 2012

Updating a previous post: Since the situation in the hotel lobby, we have not returned to the hotel itself. It's unfortunate what occurred and it was obviously an isolated case. We continue to enjoy the pleasures of the OAIP property and support the staff and planned events during the year.

We love shopping at the stores around the lake, meeting friends for drinks at the Boardwalk Bash, and eating at Marche Burrette, the Falcon's Nest, and the Veranda. We're happy to see the arrival of the Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings and love the vast selections of fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers and plants. We also love the prepared meals at the Market, the kettle corn, and flavored honey.

OAIP is a wonderful family destination with continued improvements underway for the guests' and property owners' enjoyment. OAIP is a special destination for business meetings and family vacations, and it will always be a special place for those who call it home.

Room Tip: Great place for business and families.

Thank you for taking the time to make updates to your previous review. As you mentioned, the lobby incident was unfortunate. Nevertheless, we are extremely grateful that the isolated incident did not dissuade you from mentioning the positive experiences and elements of your visits with the plantation. It's wonderful to hear you enjoy our new weekly farmers market! We are very fortunate to have it here and we look forward to its continued success as well as your future visits. Thank you for the excellent rating and comments.

“Staff is GREAT!”

I just completed a stay at the Omni Amelia Island. Thanks to the fantastic staff. The Catering events were fantastic, the food good and the staff...

The staff were prompt, courteous and all had a fantastic attitude.

It's always hard to be upbeat during contruction and remodeling so kudos go out to all who made our event A+.

“Excellent service and location!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012 via mobile

I stayed at the Omni Amelia Island for a business meeting in October. I liked it so much that I plan to come back with my family. The property is beautiful, the rooms were clean and comfortable. It's a 45 minute drive to Jacksonville airport. The food was delicious.Golf, tennis, spa, shops and children's activities are all available. The employees were very friendly and helpful. Service was of the same level as The Ritz or Four Seasons. Keep in mind that there is currently construction, but it won't last long and it will only make it even better.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
We are happy to announce a complete renovation project so spectacular, we call it the Re-Imagination of the Omni Amelia Island Plantation Resort! This incredible $85 million re-imagination broke ground November 2011 and will continue until Spring 2013. During the re-imagination project, the hotel pool and beach club will be closed, but there's still a world of things to enjoy on this inspiring 1,350 acre resort! Stroll along 3.5 miles of uncrowded beach collecting shells, play in the sparking wave-filled ocean, or relax at the largest poolscape in Northeast Florida. Take a swing on any of our three Audubon International Certified Sanctuary golf courses that not only challenge players of all levels but also preserve the natural heritage of the game and the wildlife that thrives there. Tennis enthusiasts can enjoy our twenty three Har-Tru® tennis courts managed by Cliff Drysdale Tennis professionals, while families can register for a number of recreational activities including nature tours, Segway tours, Kid's Camp and Gamers teen lounge. Rejuvenate mind and body at the Spa and Salon with a signature treatment, visit our shopping village including Red Otter Outfitters and Chico's, or experience a culinary delight at one of our many convenient dining locations. When the re-imagination is complete in Spring 2013 the resort will offer 155 additional oceanfront rooms and suites new lobby with floor-to-ceiling ocean views and joint check-in for hotel and villa guests. The new poolscape will feature an infinity pool overlooking the splash-friendly family pool with two nearby hot tubs, children's pool and poolside bar and restaurant. Lastly, don't forget to check out Heron's Cove Adventure Golf! Please note, The Villas of Amelia Island Plantation are individually unique and different, coming with varying views, sizes and locations. Some feature fully equipped kitchens, dining areas, spacious living rooms, multiple baths and private bedrooms. Most complexes have at least one pool. ... more   less
