Guest Reviews

This was one of the best B&B experiences we’ve had anywhere in the world. Veronica is an incredibly thoughtful and engaging host. Breakfast each morning is 5 star and the evening wine social was a great way to meet the other guests. We stayed in the King Ferdinand Suite which had a lovely fireplace and comfy bed. She also offers a military discount, which we appreciated. We will definitely...See More

My wife and I spent New Years Eve in Amelia Island and could not have been happier with our stay at the Williams House! The room was clean, well furnished, and comfortable. Veronica, our host, was lovely to interact with and made us feel at home even for the one night we were there. Breakfast the next morning was delicious! We will absolutely be returning!

We look forward to staying at the...See More

This is the nicest B&B on Amelia Island. Wait to go until Veronica, the innkeeper, has room for you! There are several choices for rooms, and we loved the Catherine’s Chamber— newly renovated, with a bathroom as big as the bedroom! This B&B is within easy walking distance to all the shops and restaurants in the Historic Town Center. The breakfasts were gourmet experiences, in this lovely 1856 house!...See More

We reserved for 4-nights and ended up staying 6. We didn’t want to leave. Veronica was a superb host who went out of her way to make our stay a memorable one. We were presented with a gourmet breakfast every morning. You couldn’t ask for a better location, which was within close proximity to the best beaches and fine dining. We are already planning our return visit.
