About this property

Our Matanzas Beach House is an amazing mix of the old charm and the new modern updates. It is positioned between the beautiful Matanzas Inlet Beach and the Intracoastal Waterway.

It is listed in the historical magazine of St Augustine. It is a sprawling property with so much natural beauty all around. There are paths, fountains, a beach tower for viewing and a large swing for relaxing after a day at the beach or fishing in the intracoastal. You can literally walk across A 1 A south and you are on the spectacular white sandy beach. There are two very large barn doors for access that keeps the property private and secure. The property is two lots with a separate listing on the second lot a 2019 airstream VRBO # ...you can book both for an additional 155 per nite.

The house features two platform queen bedrooms and a loft queen . There is also a single bed swing in the large living room for additional sleeping or relaxing. There is one large double sink bath with tub shower and also a private hot cold shower outside for additional private showering.

We keep the guest total at six but there is parking for four vehicles/ boat and or water toys.

The linens are top of the line along with everything you will need in the kitchen and outdoors so you will be exceedingly comfortable and happy.

I personally go to this beach house to relax and hang with best friends. There is great private gathering area behind the cottage with a proper cover so you can sit and relax on comfy furniture after a day of fun. There is also a hot tub for 18 and older guests on the property.

Please come and join will be a vacation you love and will remember for many years!

Peaceful Unique Property Close to the Beach

This was such a unique property- we picked it just for that! The hot tub worked perfectly and the property was as cute as pictured. We were just a short walk from some beautiful sunrises. The area was quiet conveniently located between st. Augustine and hammock beach area. We really enjoyed our stay.

Hidden Gem

Our family loved our space in St. Augustine! It was perfect for our family. Even though it is close to the highway the walls/gates makes it feel like you're in your own little world and provides plenty of privacy. There are a few great beach access points. They went above and beyond in providing what one would need for their stay. My kids even enjoyed using the outside shower and it made it so easy for beach days! This spot is about 30 min from the st. Augustine historic district which was perfect for us. As we were more interested in a slower pace.

Cute cottage!

Place was about as cute as the pics let on. Clean. Very happy with the stay. One thing to look out for is if it rains a lot (as it usually does Florida afternoons) there is standing water where you pull your vehicle into the driveway and you will have to walk through it open and close the gate. Bring some rubber sandals. Backing out onto A1A would seem to be a pain but with a touch of patience never had an issue even when traffic was heavy. There is a dehumidifier in the kitchen. Empty it when it shuts off and helps keep the place nicer. I would stay here again.
