Read our Reviews! We are the heart of Vilano Beach & steps away from the ocean

At Sunshine house, we have diligent about cleanliness , and strive to make this home ....feel like home , with everything you would need to be comfortable . We offer Active Military discount. Our beautiful home is located in the heart of Vilano Beach – featuring private beach access directly across (A1A is about 150 feet from your front door). The intra coastal water access public boat ramp "at the other end" of Boating Club Rd. St. Augustine's beaches stretch from Vilano Beach north of the city to Crescent Beach in the south. The Intra Coastal Waterway naturally divides the mainland from the barrier islands with miles of gorgeous coastline. Vilano Beach is a locals "best-kept secret" offering a wide variety of waterfront restaurants, several within walking distance from our spacious home. The Vilano Beach Fishing Pier, para-sailing and Sea Doo rentals and city several parks are also in close proximity to the house. You can charter a deep sea fishing boat or a sailboat from this area. Vehicles are permitted on the beach within designated areas. For our boaters, multiple public boat ramps are also nearby. Our unique home with its deep driveway is a perfect place for those who might trailer their boat from out of town. The Sunshine House, offered by the Addison's & Kenner's, is only a 1.5 minute walk to the beach (thru county maintained private beach access) and 8 min's from downtown Historic St Augustine and all the best kept secrets of Vilano Beach has to offer. Contact us for more rental information or see us on VRBO

We are 8 minutes from Historic Ole Town St Augustine, the nation’s oldest city. St. Augustine's celebrated its 450th Birthday in 2015! Visit Ripley’s Believe it or Not, Historical Museums, Flagler College, the famous Castillo DeSan Marco Fort, St. George Street and all of its shops and open air restaurants. The Alligator Farm, The Fountain of Youth, Potters Wax Museum, Ghost Tours, Romantic Horse Drawn Carriage Rides and San Sebastian Winery which features nightly music & lots of wine tasting. St. Augustine Beach Pier & the Farmers Market/Craft Show every Wednesday morning, and the St. Augustine Amphitheater hosts top named world famous music acts. Major grocery chain (Publix) and many other local conveniences, probably everything you could possibly need are minutes away.

Local public golf courses are just minutes away and the world famous World Golf Village just 20 minutes north. Orlando/Disney attractions are 1.5 hours south, famous Daytona Beach is 30 minutes south, featuring 3 major annual events, Biketoberfest, BikeWeek and the mega Daytona 500 races (approx 30 minutes away).
We are completely remodeled inside and out, our home is available for immediate rental. It is fully equipped with hi speed internet, 3 televisions, and tastefully furnished. Featuring 4 bedrooms / 2 are private master suites. The downstairs master bedroom has a covered porch. Upstairs master has an over-sized viewing balcony. New Washer/Dryer in our Laundry room, 3.5 baths, gleaming wood floors downstairs, full kitchen, private back yard and a detached 2 car garage. This home has beds for 8 but can easily sleep up to 10 people with the use of an Aero bed and large cot that we have available..
We’d love to host you. We live about 40 minutes away, and care deeply about offering the best vacation experience for you and your family. We are a family orientated vacation rental offering a wonderful home to enjoy just steps from the beach. This is not a "Party House", PLEASE respect the quiet hours of our neighbors.

Loved it
This home was very clean, comfortable, welcoming and accommodating for our family of 8. Everything we needed to enjoy the home and beach was available. Our host Judy was available and responded quickly to our questions. We fell in love with the house and the location was perfect. Beautiful quiet beach across the road, St. Augustine a few miles away, lots of great restaurants and shopping nearby, everything we look for right there. I wouldn’t hesitate to return, loved everything about it.

Lovely home close to beach
My immediate family stayed at this home for two nights while meeting extended family in area for my mother (and fathers’s) celebration of life. The home had everything we needed including a high chair, kitchen items, and beach towels (though we didn’t need them since we packed our own). The long driveway was very helpful as we came in different cars and you cannot park on the street. We are considering returning next year to make this an annual event and I would definitely consider staying again. Lovely home and very easy to access beach access. With an infant grandson that was very helpful. Thank you for your graciousness.

Gramma O'Brien's Family Beach Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. With 10 of us there were plenty of bedrooms for everyone to have personal space. The kitchen was spacious so we could prepare and serve meals easily. The beach was so close with so few people that the children had so much open area to run and not bother others.Thank you for letting us use your wonderful beach house.

This house was everything we needed, with plenty of space and bathrooms, and was very clean. The host was quick to respond to any questions as well. The best part is that it is only a 30 second walk to the beach and the beach was never crowded. Great stay!

Great Place
This was a wonderful house, true to listing within 500 feet of the beach and only 5 miles from downtown St.Augustine. our host Judy was super helpful and easy to communicate with. This is a great family oriented area with a lot of beach items (chairs, unbrellas, boogie boards, even a wagon) provided. I would absolutely stay here again.

Family beach vacation
The house was very nice. They had enough beach chairs and towels so we didn’t really need to use ours. We did have an issue, but the host responded quickly and the issue was able to be resolved quickly. Very short walk to the beach, which was good with having a 5 year old.

Good location. Nice home with a good layout. Only thing that we would have liked to seen in the home, was at least a small amount of coffee for the first morning, until we could get to the store.
