Rooms were large modern and clean. The bar downstairs is a nice amenity. Downtown Fernandina is just a short walk away. They did a great job rehabilitating the old school house.

The Amelia Schoolhouse Inn was a fantastic property! From check-in to check-out, the staff was friendly and accommodating. The property is walking distance to downtown Fernandina shopping and restaurants. Nice outside courtyard area and the Principal's Bar was a fun place to get a drink. It was a great experience to stay in the original schoolhouse on Fernandina Beach, the renovations done were very impressive. Definitely would stay again!

This establishment was a wonderful surprise . The converted schoolhouse was tastefully done , staff were extremely welcoming and helpful , and the short walk into town was made the locational optimal for restaurant and bar hopping . Highly recommended!!!!

The property was very clean. I did not like that the popular bar is open to the public and it seems that more emphasis is placed on serving those patrons than the guests who paid an exorbitant nightly fee. The bar was very loud and grew louder as more drinks were served. Guests should be warned that it may be loud prior to check in

My wife and I were very happy to find the Amelia School House Inn. We ended up arriving late, I called ahead to notify the staff and they were already sending me a message with late check-in instructions. Arrival was easy, the location felt secure, and the room was extremely clean! The property was neat and fit the theme of a school house. The bar on-site was a very cool feature. Staff was friendly and welcoming. The location is 5-6 blocks from the downtown shopping area, so you can take a easy walk to great shopping, food, and entertainment options. We will definitely come back.
