Our

story

Meet the family behind Anchor Away Vacation Rentals: Michelle and her three daughters, Maya, Erin, and Avery.  We’re so glad you’re here! For more than 13 years, our family has had the privilege of welcoming thousands of guests to beautiful Amelia Island and helping families create unforgettable vacation memories. With more than 1,500 five-star reviews across Airbnb and VRBO, we’re incredibly grateful for the trust our guests have placed in us throughout the years.  Anchor Away is a small, family-run, boutique vacation rental team, and that’s something we’re especially proud of. Working together as a mother and three daughters allows us to offer something truly personal: genuine care, attention to detail, and a commitment to making every guest feel at home. We’re hands-on throughout your stay and always happy to answer questions, share our favorite local recommendations, or help with anything you may need along the way. When you stay with Anchor Away, you’re not just another reservation — you’re a guest we genuinely care about.  We love Amelia Island, we love welcoming people to our favorite place, and we love being part of the memories our guests make here. Our goal is simple: to make your Amelia Island vacation so wonderful that you’ll want to come back and stay with us again and again.
