Peaceful Getaway
We had a great time at this property, the beach was fantastic and barely had people on it, mostly locals walking their dogs. The house was comfortable and had enough items in the kitchen to cook modest meals. Our kids had a great time here. Only comments I would make about the property is to be mindful when exiting the driveway as the traffic goes pretty fast on the road and it can be a little dangerous if you are not careful. Definitely would stay here again and would recommend to others.

Location is heavenly
Looking for the most gorgeous sunrise, sunset, privacy? This place is perfect. A small unassuming cottage like property with all of the necessary amenities. The private beach is unbelievable. Host was responsive to each and every request for help.

Cozy, Private Beach House… Just Needs a Few Touches
Cozy, but the family room, dining room, and kitchen give an open-concept feel. 3/4 panoramic views, though I mentioned to the host that he may want to put up blinds, as there are neighbors on both sides who can likely see into family room and dining room. Very quiet area. We hardly ever saw anyone else on the beach any closer than 75 yards (and we had some gorgeous, warm days there in late March). The home is relatively well taken care of, but as I mentioned to the host, it needs some small touches to make it better (e.g. an updated grill, bedside lamps in all the rooms, beach towels, versus the bath towels we used). Great location, as grocieries and restaurants in Vilano are 8 miles away, there’s a gas station (which also has basic sundries) a half mile away, and no public beach access nearby, which my partner and I have learned makes a HUGE difference on a beach rental experience. Overall, I’d recommend this home for sure. Hopefully if we book again, some of the minor issues I shared with the host will be fixed or addressed.

Amazing View
We wanted a place for the 4 of us to be on the beach near St Augustine. This very clean home was exactly that. Not exactly luxury, but quaint, warm, and welcoming with an amazing view.

Beach Stay
The house was nice. It has been rehabilitated, there are small areas where things don't work, close properly. In the master bedroom the door doesn't stay shut (maybe the floor is slightly uneven). The kitchen had everything that we needed to cook. The living room and family area is nice. There is 1 bedroom downstairs with (4 beds- a set of two bunk beds) and there is a full bathroom downstairs as well. The stairwell is quite narrow, so be careful. Upstairs there are two bedrooms (jack and Jill style)- whoever you stay upstairs with prepare to share a bathroom. The shower is a bit on the small side. There were no bath cloths, we had to purchase them. The TV has all of the apps that you need and the WiFi was good as well. Overall, we'd stay again. The views of the ocean were simply wonderful. Hope this helps.

Great house
The house is better than the pictures let on! I wish the kitchen had been better stocked with kitchenware, the floors are uneven, and there was no stopper for the tub, but all minor things. The view is unbelievable!

Stunning rustic beach house with views to die for
Spent a wonderful week at this charming beach house, enjoying everything it has to offer. Firstly, if you are looking for a modern, sleek, characterless beach house, then this is not for you - but if you want rustic charm (and sloping floors!), then go right ahead. Contact with Cameron with excellent with good information before we arrived, everything we needed to know to check in, and check out at the end of a fantastic week. We also arrived with no towels ourselves, and within a couple of hours of arriving, Cameron had arranged delivery of a fresh set so we had enough for the house and beach for the whole week. The house has everything we needed with good kitchen and dining facilities. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable (with space to spare with the 5 of us!). The open plan kitchen, diner and living space with the wraparound views of the beach and the sea were simply stunning. The outside deck has chairs a plenty, and a dining table to the side for al fresco eating. The garden area is great with a charcoal BBQ supplied (so much nicer than gas, and goes with the whole charm of the place). There are also beach chairs in the garage. Good washer and dryer also very useful. Then down the steps and a short hop across the dunes to a wide expanse of beach and the Atlantic ocean with good waves for boogie boarding, and swimming with dolphins, turtles and pelicans. We watched the turtle nests at the back of the property all week, but sadly no hatching - missed it by a week according to one of the helpful, chatty volunteers that check them every day - perhaps next time. 15 minutes down the road and across the bridge into St Augustine, with all the shops, restaurants you could ask for. This was an amazing week for us, and we were sad to leave. The peace of sitting on the deck in the early morning, supping a coffee and watching the dolphins swim across right in front of the sunrise was the absolute highlight of a superb stay.
