Hi, I’m Joe Cutajar, one of the Real Estate Sales Executives for Amelia Island Plantation Real Estate Sales here at the Omni Amelia Island Plantation. I have volunteered to post updates about news and information regarding this special island community. Of course our biggest news has been the purchase of Amelia Island Plantation by Omni Hotels and Resorts. More on that later but first just a bit about this blogger. I hail from Dearborn Heights, Michigan which is a suburb of Detroit so yes I drive American, a Chevy in fact since my brother Mike works for GM. I first came to Amelia as an intern from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. Other than a short stay of seven years with the PGA Tour as an Executive Chef and Food and Beverage Director at their TPC Clubs, I have spent my entire adult life at Amelia Island Plantation. In 2002 I was recruited from the Club Division here to become one of our Amelia Island Plantation Real Estate Sales Executives.

Amelia Island Plantation Real Estate Sales is the ONLY real estate company located on the Omni Amelia Island Plantation property. Our office is located at the Reception Center where guests of the resort and hotel check-in and check-out. We have a staff of 7 real estate agents with a combined experience of 260+ years. We are supported by a full-time administrative and marketing staff and our office is open seven days a week.
I was the #1 sales agent in combined sales and listing volume in 2009 and I am also currently the #1 sales agent in combines sales and listing volume through September 2010. I am also a Florida licensed real estate broker.
Having raised my 3 sons on this island (Nathan 16, Alec 14 and Spencer 12), I have always felt a strong sence of responsiblity and appreciation for our community, both here at Amelia Island Plantation and at a local level. As an owner, I serve on the Board for the Sandcastle Condominium Association. (Sandcastle is a condominium complex on the ocean adjacent to the Omni Hotel here at Amelia Island Plantation that primarily serves as villa rentals ). I currently serve on the board for the Fernandina Beach High School Foundation to raise funds to enhance the academic experience of our students.
This blog will be maintained as a resource of all things Amelia. From the lifestyle of our residents or real estate opportunities – both buying and selling, to the events of the resort and the local community of Fernandina Beach and Nassau County, I will seek to help you Discover Amelia. Please follow the Amelia Island Plantation Real Estate Sales blog or check back with us regularly! And feel free to contact us if you have any question, thoughts or need any real estate assistance!
