Great lodging special for Amelia Island

One of our favorite places on the planet is Amelia Island. Living in Northeast Florida, Amelia is the perfect getaway for us – just far enough away that it feels like we’re on vacation, close enough to book it back home in an emergency.

When we go for a weekend, we stay in one of the many Bed & Breakfast hotels. We have a favorite, the Ash Street Inn, because it was the first place we “went away” to for a weekend after we were engaged, but having been there so much and knowing many people in the area, we know that there’s no such thing as a bad B&B on Amelia.

We especially love the great restaurants and bars on Amelia, and we even have a print of the Palace Saloon that hung in my office for many years (The Palace is the oldest drinking establishment in Florida). My parents visit regularly from the West Coast of Florida to check out the great shops, and now that he’s retired my father’s choice of attire begins and ends with shirts purchased at a shop called “Last Flight Out”.

The Ash Street Inn and the other dozen participating properties are running a Lodging Special for Amelia Island vacationers: Book two nights, get the third night for free. Believe me, I can give a personal recommendation to Amelia Island being a great place to visit, and this deal is one of which to take advantage. The special runs through February 29, 2008, so there’s ample opportunities to schedule that long weekend getaway.
