Savannah Grand of Amelia Island offers a range of living options that reflect its commitment to quality care and comfort, though these options come at a premium compared to both Nassau County and the broader state of Florida. For instance, the semi-private rooms are priced at $3,990 per month, which is notably higher than Nassau County's average of $3,555 and significantly above Florida's state average of $3,009. Studio apartments at Savannah Grand are available for $4,995, again exceeding local ($4,260) and statewide ($3,823) costs. The most spacious option, a one-bedroom unit, is offered at $6,295 - considerably above the county's typical rate of $5,488 and more than $2,400 higher than the state average of $3,864. These pricing disparities suggest that while Savannah Grand provides an elevated standard of living and exceptional services in a desirable location, potential residents should weigh these costs against their financial planning in comparison to local and state alternatives.
