Our Sandy Feet Beach Retreat has a heated pool! This is island living at it's best!
Spacious 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home located in the heart of Anastasia Island, only about 2 minutes away from the beach/pier, and about 5 minutes away from historical downtown St. Augustine. Our home has an in ground pool, fenced yard, circular driveway, updated bathrooms, stainless appliances, granite counter tops, and a large screened in porch. Fully renovated home with large yard for the kids. There is one smart TV in the living room, one in the master bedroom, and one in a king bedroom.
There is not a light in the pool. The pool heater thermostat is set to a temperature between 78 and 85 degrees F, depending on the time of the year. It’s not possible to raise the temperature above 85 degrees, the temperature range is set to protect the health of the pool (from algae growth) and the equipment. If the daytime air temp doesn't get above 58 degrees the pool will have a difficult time staying heated.
Our pool technician comes on Tuesdays to check the chemicals and Fridays to clean. Our lawn/landscape professional comes on Wednesdays. These dates are subject to change based on weather or other factors, but in general that is when they are scheduled.
The history of St. Augustine is incomparable with almost any other on our coast. Founded in 1565 it is chock full of amazing places to visit, from the oldest house to the first schoolroom, to the impenetrable fort built by the Spanish. Lincolnville, just south of downtown St. Augustine takes you on a walking tour of the history of the civil rights movement noting where Martin Luther King stayed on numerous occasions. Needless to say, there’s also so many unique shops, and the restaurants are so varied and truly have an international flavor! There are things to do no matter the weather! You can take a free boat ride to Fort Matanzas and learn the history about the battles fought. Further south is Marineland where you can swim with dolphins!
The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill. There are always concerts at St. Augustine Amphitheatre and events at Francis Field as well. You will never run out of things to do here in St. Augustine. It is probably one of the most beautiful places in all of Florida, and for sure one of the most photographed! Come and see for yourself!

The pool area could have been tidier. The beds could use upgrading. But overall it was a nice place to stay and very convenient location! Would stay here again.

The pool was a lifesaver to keep the kids occupied and the home was in good condition. We had everything we needed and the location was as central as it gets with easy access to everything’s.

Very spacious for our group of 9. Plenty of sleeping area. The living room was big enough and comfortable with the dinning table in the same room made it feel like we were all still close but not over crowded. The pool was great. Loved the screened in porch. Easy drive to the beach. The owners were very prompt in their responses. Overall a great stay.
