Excellent rental
We had a family weekend at the property and everything was perfect. Very clean with comfortable beds and plenty of seating. The kitchen was well equipped. The location was close to St. Augustine historic district as well as grocery stores and restaurants. The ocean views were spectacular. Sunrise views in the morning and sunset views in the evening.

Great beach house
Lovely house, beach is right across the street. Street is a bit busy though. House is well stocked and convenient location. 2 bedrooms downstairs are totally separate and you need to go up steps outside to get to main house. It’s great for different generation families.kitchen is huge and fully functional. Mattress in master is a bit hard and water pressure in master in shower is terrible. Everywhere else was fine. Overall, very comfortable house and 15 minute ride to historic downtown. Quiet area by the beach which was incredible. Felt like we had it to ourselves

Exactly what we were looking for, and the coldest Christmas in decades! The house was perfect for our family! We bundled up and walked on the beach every day! No fireplace which was disappointing but we added lots of frameless candles and lights to create a cozy atmosphere!

Gem of a Holiday House!
A group of 10 (family - including 2 kids - and friends) stayed for several nights in July 2022. Excellent location across the street from a beach access. Beautiful decor, comfortable beds, and enough room for all of us to be comfortable and have our own space. Randy and Karina were easy to work with and very responsive. 10/10!

Great Beach Location
This property is super close to the beach, views of the beach and marsh were beautiful. Kitchen is big! Communication with host was good. The only downside to this property was that my husband had some sort of allergy to something in the house and we had to leave early, pets are allowed so perhaps there had been a cat. Also the blinds and the living room furniture need a good cleaning. I did communicate with the host and she said they would give the house a good cleaning.

Great Family Stay
What a great stay for the whole family. the house was perfect for our needs. Privacy for the adult children downstairs, and privacy for the parents upstairs. Everyone commented on the size of the kitchen. It is amazingly big for a rental. It had everything we needed. We loved the large windows that looked out at the ocean. With the house being so close to every place we wanted to go-Jacksonville, Amelia Island and, of course, St. Augustine. Can't beat a place that is only 2 miles away from Publix, either. The decor was lovely and made it feel cozy. We appreciated the extras you left for us-a closet filled with beach gear, plenty of towels and other supplies in the bathrooms, a huge laundry room and the great amount of kitchen supplies. Having a clean home was also a big plus. Thank you to Karina for answering all my questions so quickly. This will be a trip we won't soon forget!

No mention of separate appartments that did not connect or the amount of stairs one needed to climb.
False advertising. Had to cross busy road to get to beach and with the party of 7 averaged 70 years of age so steps were a great barrier for mobility. House was nice but did not meet our needs.

Location!! Odd setup - worked for us!
Great house directly across road from beach, super quick walk. 15 or so minutes to old town St Augustine. Be aware that the 2 downstairs bedroom/bathrooms are not accessible by interior stairs. To join the living area and kitchen you must climb a flight of exterior deck stairs. We didn't mind at all. As 4 active adult couples it worked for us, but might not for all. Kitchen is enormous and well stocked for feeding a big group. We enjoyed the views, the comfy spaces, and the thoughtful supplies. Communication was fantastic and the visitor guide is complete and accurate. We separately contacted the owners about a few minor maintenance issues.
