Private Quarters Club at Amelia National

For a change of scenery and something different from a usual hotel stay, consider the brand new Private Quarters Club at Amelia National located along a serene stretch of Florida's northern coast. Offering all the amenities of a luxury resort, but with the added comforts of premier residential living, this alternative way to holiday is ideal for multi-generational getaways, family retreats, or those that want the added privacy that comes with staying in a private home. The three-bedroom retreats, which include unlimited golf for up to eight people, feature nearly 3000 square feet of living space, with gourmet kitchens and great rooms, fairway views, and the perfect amount of seclusion.

This gated community just north of Jacksonville has all the trappings of a five-star find, with a fleet of bobbing yachts protected by the harbor, the feel of sand between your toes as you stroll along the beach, delightful nearby day spas, wine bars and casual-to-elegant dining. Play golf on the Tom Fazio-designed course, go at it on the tennis courts, take a dip in the pool surrounded by tropical plants, or slip inside the clubhouse for a 19th-hole celebration at the bar and grill. While relaxing at Private Quarters Club at Amelia National, you enjoy the best of both worlds - privileges typically found at an award-winning resort coupled with the contentment of knowing you can relax and unwind in your own private abode.
