I debated whether to give a three or a four to the property, thinking maybe a 3.5 might be where it is at. I also debated as there is another whole criteria for judgement when paying close to $300 per night. In the end, I decided to go with the four as we could see how far it had come... More

I have been to this property before and it was nice. But they just had thier grand opening for the new pool. It was very well done. They made it so that you can enjoy the pool area during the day with waiters that come to you and take orders for food and drink (expensive). Even if you get there... More

Just returned from an amazing and relaxing stay at the Omni Amelia Island. I can't say enough good things about the resort. Our room was beautiful and the food (expensive) fabulous! Only con would be the kids (girls ages 13 and 12) were bored. Nothing really for them to do. They like lazy rivers and pool slides. Will definitely return... More

There is a disproportion comparing the property and service with the price. They certainly have wonderful beachfront location and the grounds are beautiful;but the positives stop there. The staff is mediocre, not at all oriented to customer service, repeat instructions in a sing-song manner and in general don't seem happy in their work environment. This is apparent on check in...

My fiance and I stayed here for her birthday this year. Absolutely awesome employees, everyone was helpful. They even gave my fiance a birthday present consisting of bath salts. The room was huge and very clean, view from the balcony was awesome. Will definitely be back, Omni is now the hotel we stay in.

The grounds of the newly renovated hotel are beautiful. There are two huge swimming pools so that the pools are never overly crowded. All the restaurants have limited menus and the food is terribly over priced. The hotel is located on a huge plantation with restaurants, stores and gym scattered throughout the area. Directions in the plantation are poor. We... More

Stayed last week and lived thru several drenched days in a row. Omni is on beach, nice grounds and good restaurant at the Verandah. Rooms are really small and don't impart a luxe feel.

The Omni's renovation is great - the resort is spacious and pristine, and the views are lovely. Our room (ocean view king) was standard but comfortable. However, the rest of the experience was completely and utterly disappointing. First, we waited in line at 2PM (for twenty minutes) to check in because only two people were at the front desk.

Omni recently completed a $90 million addition and upgrade. We stayed three nights at the end of April, just before they opened for the season. If you love golf, then you will love the holes that follow the shore along their 3.5 mile private beach. Even with thousands of people staying in this resort, it was never crowded anywhere. With...

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
