There is quite a bit to see and do here on Amelia Island. This album will give you a taste of what you'll see during your visit to Fernandina Beach and Fairbanks House.
Fairbanks House is on the National Register of Historic Places and is considered to be the finest example of Italianate architecture in the state of Florida. But is also designed for relaxation.
Bill, Theresa and three outside cats are the keepers of Fairbanks House, and have been so for the past 14 years. They love to travel, love the outdoors, love Amelia Island and love innkeeping.
Fairbanks House has over an acre of grounds with multiple gardens throughout. Over the last several years, we have been re-landscaping the property with native drought tolerant and wildlife-friendly plants. They're yours to visit.
Amelia Island's 13 miles of unspoiled beach are open to the public. There are 50 beach access points on the island and most offer free parking, although most of our guests ride our complimentary bikes over.
Ladies getaways are a specialty of Fairbanks House. Amelia Island is the perfect place for a Florida girls' getaway and Fairbanks House is the perfect place to stay.
Christmas in the Victorian village of Fernandina is as charming as you can imagine. Fairbanks House decorates the main mansion and cottages in a style befitting their Victorian roots, including placing a Christmas tree in every room.
Every night on Amelia Island, Fairbanks House guests are treated to a dazzling sunset on the river. Just a few minutes walk from the inn, Fernandina sunsets are something to behold.
