Amelia Island, Florida
Our readers say: This Nantucket Shingle lodge with sweeping rooflines and broad porches is in a "great location right on the beach"—"the place took me back to the Gatsby era." The "incredible, awesome lodgings" include rooms in the Main House with period antiques and oversized tubs, and mini suites that exhibit West Indies decor and have oceanview decks facing the Atlantic. Wood floors, brass lighting, and a fireplace mark public areas. Enjoy breakfasts that "are better than Mom’s" each morning and wine and hors d’oeuvres during a social hour in the evening. "The innkeepers go out of their way to make you feel at home."
