Candice Cove is one of the Historic homes on American Beach Oceanfront. American Beach is a historic HOA beach community located north of Jacksonville, Florida on Amelia Island in Nassau County. During the time of segregation and the Jim Crow era, African Americans were not allowed to swim at most of beaches in Jacksonville, and several black-only areas were created. American Beach was the largest and most popular, and was a community established by Abraham Lincoln Lewis, Florida’s first black millionaire and president of the Afro-American Life Insurance Company.
American Beach was founded in 1935 by Florida’s first black millionaire, Abraham Lincoln Lewis, and his Afro-American Life Insurance Company. The plan was for his employees to have a place to vacation and own homes for their families by the shore. Throughout the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, summers at American Beach were busy with families, churches and children. It was a place where African Americans could enjoy “Recreation and Relaxation Without Humiliation”.

Family Beach Vacation
We absolutely love this place—it's our little slice of paradise! We've stayed here multiple times, and each visit has been just as wonderful as the last. The home is beautifully maintained, cozy, and incredibly welcoming. Everything was perfect, and we’re so thankful for the chance to stay here again. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Great Location
First of all the property was very clean upon arrival. The house is an older house but it is nice, it is a historic local house from years ago. Very close to the beach with just a short walk and very nice back porch and sitting area down below. You could not ask for a better owner in Anthony, he is super nice and responded quickly to questions or concerns. I would recommend anyone to stay here and I would definitely return.

First Beach Trip this year May 3 2025
Overall everything was nice. Not far to the beach. Very private. Everything was well stocked. Host was very courteous and easy to get in touch with if you had a question. There was still damage from the hurricane to the lower inside, but it is under construction as I speak. We had a lovely time and beautiful weather. I would definitely recommend this cottage. Hated to leave.

American Beach
If you are looking for a modern high rise with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, this place isnt for you. But, if you want a quaint, clean beach bungalow steps from the ocean, lots of outdoor seating spaces, and a very responsive host then this is(Anthony), then this is the place you want.

Worst VRBO Ever
Candice Cove is the worst Vrbo rental we have ever encountered! The Host contacted us just hours before we were to arrive to let us know Half the house was under construction due to storm damage!!! We didn’t have time to find another place!!! The house was full of mold!!! Dirty! Sheets smelled !! The house was uneven and the floors sagged! Couldn’t use the whole downstairs or the outside courtyard! Trash was thrown on both sides of home and huge construction was going on in front of property. We left on the 3rd day! Host only refunded us 300.00 when we requested a full refund! I will be informing VRBO! He could have notified us in November that the house was damaged.. but waited until hours before arriving!

Nice
One of the best locations. Hop and a skip from the beach.House could use some updating.. The TVs did not work in two of the bedrooms.😳 My granddaughter and her friend had a wonderful time.
