Destination Club Presents New Home in Enchanted Amelia Island, Fla.

Dream Catcher destination club members can soon experience nature at its finest at The Dunes, the latest addition to Dream Catcher’s collection of exquisite vacation homes. Opening July 2005, The Dunes provides an elegant beachfront retreat amid the tranquility of Florida’s Amelia Island.

The southernmost of the “Golden Isles” chain of barrier islands, Amelia Island is a nature lover’s paradise with its stunning landscapes, offering nearly 13 miles of pristine white sand beaches, framed by 40-foot dunes, and marshlands teeming with a variety of wildlife.

Surrounded by nature and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, The Dunes provides ample accommodations for its guests with more than 4,400 square feet in space. The luxurious three-story abode includes four bedrooms, four and a half baths, living and dining areas, balcony with ocean view, and a fireplace and elevator. Outdoors guests enjoy private beach walk-over, brick patio with heated swimming pool, hot tub, and a large sundeck. Beautiful landscaping, crafted to ensure the privacy of its guests, encompasses the home. With its spectacular views of the Atlantic, lavish accommodations and state-of-the-art amenities, The Dunes undeniably blends the best of nature with the comforts of a luxury home.

“In choosing a new home we select the best properties available in a location but also focus greatly on the destination itself and what it can offer to our members. A quality destination, Amelia Island is a perfect choice for us. It’s a wonderful place for members to relax, enjoy nature at its best, and spend quality time with their families,” said Scott Anderson, Dream Catcher CEO. “In addition to the quiet beaches, nature, and history that the island is prized for, members can enjoy many other interesting, fun, and cultural activities particular to the destination.”

Basking in the serene atmosphere permeating The Dunes, members will enjoy access to the prestigious Amelia Island Club and its facilities which include a golf course, spa, tennis courts, and private beach club. Members also have an abundance of recreational activities around the sunny coast to choose from, including beachcombing, nature hikes, bicycling and horseback riding along secluded beaches. The island’s many waterways invite families to enjoy leisurely days boating, canoeing, sailing and fishing as well.

Home to five golf courses, Amelia Island welcomes avid golfers and can accommodate an array of challenges for all levels of play. Also a prime location for bird enthusiasts, the island is filled with more than 250 species. Marine and wildlife lovers can also enjoy sightings of bobcats, red foxes, green sea turtles, alligators and manatees.

Additionally, with its rich history, Amelia Island provides an authentic look into the former Victorian seaport village, with the presence of art galleries, antiques shops and museums found throughout the historic downtown area. Other historical sites include Fort Clinch State Park where live interpretations of the Civil War are re-enacted and the Palace Saloon, the state’s oldest saloon.
