We loved our stay at Sea Horse Haven! It was so close to Matanzas Inlet and the beach and we walked to both every day. It was also VERY pet-friendly - we could let the dogs run free outside without having to worry about them at all since the entire property is double-gated. Decor was adorable, and house had everything we needed. Short easy drive to both the great restaurants and entertainment of St. Augustine as well as shopping and beaches in the Hammock areas south of the rental. We would definitely stay here again.

A cozy getaway

We love this place! It's on a busy street, and not on the beach, but once you close the front gate, it's a quiet little compound with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Lots of lovely outdoor space.

The 5 star reviews are 100% realistic! We had a great stay and the house was everything the listing showed it to be. Clean, comfortable and within walking distance to the inlet. St Augustine is within reasonable driving distance too. Highly recommend!

Family Vacation Getaway was a Dream

Clean, well stocked house within walking distance to the beach! Great location away from the busyness of downtown but still close to whatever you need. We had a wonderful stay- enjoyed the beach, swimming with dolphins at Marineland (right down the street), visited two lighthouses and more. Would definitely stay here again!

Awesome beach vacation spot!

We absolutely loved our stay at Sea Horse Haven! Matanzas Inlet is absolutely beautiful and this rental was in the perfect convenient location to enjoy the beach each day. The house itself was so charming and had a vintage beach shack vibe that my family adored. Cozy and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. Hope to come back soon!

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.

Private Cozy Cottage

The fenced in property was perfect for our small dog and gave us great privacy. The house was decorated and supplied nicely and the hot tub was a great bonus and perfect compliment to the peacefully backyard. You did have to drive a bit for different food and entertainment.
