About this property

Relaxed Cancellation Policy! Oceanfront home with pool,hot tub, fire pit, bikes.

"Surf's Up" is a magnificent, ocean front home looking over the vast St. Augustine dunes and the Atlantic Ocean. Walking into the foyer, you are greeted by soft colors, beachy decor, and beautiful pine floors. The main living area is on the 1st floor. The living room, dining area, and kitchen look out over the pool and hot tub and the beach in the back ground. The living room is warm and inviting with its many windows allowing plenty of natural light. The sofas and chairs allow guests to gather around a decorative fireplace to socialize, or watch their favorite show on one of many TVs in the house. There is a powder room off of the living room. Next to the living room is the sun room with two day beds, sitting area, and another TV. The sun room can be used as a 6th bedroom, however it does not have a closet. The dining table has comfortable seating for 8, but you could squeeze in 10 or 12 if needed. The kitchen is spacious and fully loaded with everything you need to make your favorite meals. The chef in your group will appreciate the granite counters, wood cabinets, stainless appliances, and plenty of prep space. We have a side by side refrigerator with water and ice dispenser in the door.

On the main level is a fabulous master suite. Here, guests will find a comfy king bed. There is also a nautically-themed desk with work space, and high speed wireless Internet. There is a flat screen TV mounted on the wall in the bedroom. The master bath is very spacious, with a double vanity, deep soaking tub, separate shower and enclosed toilet room. The back deck wraps from the back of the house around to the master bedroom. Guests have deck access from the master bedroom.

On the 2nd floor, there are four more bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. There is a second master bedroom upstairs. It is on the ocean side of the house and features a king bed, TV, and a large, private bathroom with a walk-in shower. The 3rd bedroom has a queen bed, TV, and ocean views. The 4th bedroom is also on the ocean side. It has a double bed with twin bed on top and 1 twin bed and a TV with a DVD/VCR player. The 5th bedroom has a double bed with twin bed on top and a separate twin bed. Bedrooms 3,4, and 5 share a full bathroom which features a pedestal sink and a shower/tub combo.

On the ground level, the back deck offers a sunny place to sit and watch the passing pelicans, or to lay out in the sun and work on your tan. There is a patio table with seating for six, another table with seating for six with umbrella, and a couple of recliners. There is a separate laundry room on the ground level. It has two sets of washers and dryers. There is also a bathroom in the laundry room. It has a shower, sink, and toilet. The beach is accessible via a public walkway just a few steps from the house. When you return from the beach, we have a private, outdoor shower closet with hot and cold water.
There is plenty of parking space here. We have covered carport parking for two cars, and at least 4 more cars can park in the driveway. We have a small garage, but it is used mainly to store beach toys (surf boards, beach chairs, etc). Also 7 beach cruiser bikes to tool around the beach or ride to local shop. Helmets also supplied.

Check in and check out were a breeze. The property is in a great location. We had teenagers and they were able to eat tacos whenever they wanted to. And our older beer drinkers enjoyed the brewery! Our daughter enjoyed biking (her own) every day. Mr. Black responded to our concerns in a timely manner. The kitchen was well stocked but everything was in a jumble. It took awhile to find things. The photo of the garage was well organized but that was not the case. We had to hunt around for things. The property could use some TLC but it was still a great beach house for our group.

Great family get away

We booked this property for a quick three night beach getaway with my family and two other families. The property had plenty of space for 6 adults and 7 children. The beach is steps away and the pool was awesome.

Everything and more

We wanted for nothing. The house was amazing, clean, roomy, and right on the beach. It was peaceful but still in the area of things to do around it. The bikes were a special thing that the kids loved. Lots of extras in the garage for the teens to do. The first floor master was so helpful so the kids could have the second floor. The house was better than any picture could show. The owner was kind and communicative and the whole process rom start to finish was seamless.

The BEST location for our girls trip

This adorable beach house is in the perfect location. Enjoy the most amazing sunrises on the beach which is literally steps away. Listen to the waves crash against the shore while relaxing in the pool or hot tub. Tons of space for sleeping and hanging out. Stocked very well especially for going to the beach with bikes, chairs, a wagon and umbrellas. We had the best time and communication with the property manager was super easy and seamless, he gave us tons of recommendations for places to go and things to see. Seriously you will not find a better location to enjoy the St Augustine beach!

Great Location

House was in a great location. It had everything we needed. One issue was the main TV was not working at all. Also, it would have been nice to have the pool heated without having to pay $75/day. He does state this in the description but for the price, seems like it would have been included. Overall, though a nice house and owner was communicative.

Surf’s Up Review

There were things we loved about Surf’s Up and other things that were less than desirable. The amenities were fabulous, and the home was well equipped. The ocean-front location and proximity to the beach were excellent, although not have a prime ocean view was a disappointment—only because my favorite thing about being at the beach is watching the sunrise. The home has a very musty odor and mold on the ceiling in the living room—health concern. The faucet in the upstairs primary bath was unusable because the water had a sewer smell. The driveway flooded during an overnight rain storm, and there was standing water above the tires and door level of two of our cars, causing concern about driving both cars. Also, it would have been helpful for the host to have provided guides for the tvs and a packet of local info. Although our family enjoyed the trip, the negatives ( especially the mold) out weighed the positives.

Pictures were out dated, outside property isnt being taken care off, if you have someone with lawncare you are being ripped off. Not enough towels, toilet paper isnt Is adequate for 16 people for a week. Doing towels laundry daily instead of vacationing. Had 5 issues 1.downstairs toilet over flowed and is still not work. 2. One washing machine isnt Agitating and unuseable. 3. pool stopped cyclingbut was fixed after call. Location is perfect just needs alot of TLC. 4. DOOR to deck is so old that is lost its seal...hard to really enjoy view thur it need to look past it. 5. Garage with bikes and Floats were very outdated and rusty, no organization in the garage you had to paw through the items to find something to use. Needs a full gut out and replace outdoor items for recreation. Was alittle disppointed from online pics to what we received.

Halloween in July

This house has the perfect location. The house has a lot of room. The pool is immediately off the back door and the walkway to the beach several steps away. This could be a great place except it has several areas that need to be addressed. The landscaping needs a lot of work. The house has plumbing issues and the first floor bath was out of order. It needs a good deep cleaning. Cobwebs in the hanging lamp over table and thick dust in vents. The first night we had cockroaches in at least three bedroom upstairs. My granddaughter would not sleep alone the rest of the stay since they were crawling on her legs in the night. The bug man came the next day after a call to the owner but he told us we would probably see more activity and we did in the kitchen. The upstairs bathroom sink had only a trickle of water pressure and the deep tub in the master bath only had tepid water. It never got hot. We should have suspicioned something when there was caution tape around the downstairs bathroom. the door knob fell off the bedroom door upstairs and a man came to fix it. He took the door knob off and never came back. The young couple staying in that room were not pleased that their door would not shut and stay shut. The window in the upstairs bath could not be shut and may have been a source of entry for the bugs. The repairman came and nailed it shut but the wood was rotted. The air conditioning went out and required a repairman. This house needs some TLC.

Florida vacation

This beach house is in a perfect location and the beach was absolutely amazing. The house itself was not thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival so we did have to clean counters/sinks, wipe down appliances and wash all the bedding prior to our first night of sleep. Only one washer is working of the 2 so we found a local laundromat. Communication with the owner was just fine, only thing was he didn't own that the house wasn't cleaned even though we sent pictures of what we were seeing. Overall we had a wonderful time and the cleaning issues definitely did not spoil our trip.

Excellent location and property amenities. Poor property management

The house is very nice. Awesome location right on the beach. There is a pool and Jacuzzi, which is excellent. The owner was great to communicate with and very responsive. The property management team or person needs to be replaced. I know the owner lives far away, but there were just too many things that were not working properly, broken, or just left undone or messy. If it weren’t for the management of the property I would give it five stars. I don’t like when the picture show everything spotless and clean and orderly and then you show up and it is not that way.

Perfect location and “party” home

This is the perfect location for St Augstine Beach! It’s right on the beach (you can’t get closer to the sand), it’s within walking distance of a couple of the more fun restaurants in the area, and across the street from a beloved local coffee shop. There’s ample bedrooms for a stay with kids and both of the “main” suites have large bathrooms, with great showers and water pressure. Unfortunately the renters prior to us were less than ideal and the one woman cleaning crew simply couldn’t turn the place around in time. I recommend bringing your own towels (very few were provided, especially in the common areas like kitchen, powder room, etc), and if you like to cook, anything you might need to prep a meal. We stay in about a dozen vacation homes a year and this is one of those that provides the “leftovers” from other residences. You are definitely paying for the size and location of the home, not the luxurious amenities. It’s a great party house right on the beach though!

Perfect House for our Bachelorette Trip!

The house was perfect! Plenty of space for a larger group of girls. Clean, spacious kitchen and sitting area. Sleeping arrangements and bathrooms worked really well and the backyard pool plus being steps away from the beach were better than we could've asked for. The host was so communicative and responsive with details about the property and recommendations for the area. Check in and check out was easy and seamless. There were so many great spots to grab coffee, food and drinks around the area and just a short uber ride from downtown St. Augustine. We couldn't have asked for a better weekend!
