Family Beach Vacation

Our family really enjoyed being together at Southern Tide. Fred and Jessica’s beach home is perfect for our children and for our grandchildren. The space is perfect for family time or for individual quiet time. The beach is just steps away from the home. We’re so grateful to have found this beach home that is perfect for all of our needs.

Steps to the beech no wagon needed!

We had such a wonderful time. The home was the perfect for our friend reunion. Everyone was comfortable and there was plenty of seating for 10. It’s always a treat to be steps from the ocean and close to St. Augustine. The hosts were very communicative and available if we needed anything. We would 100% stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Jenkins

Host profile image
I've called Jacksonville home for 25 years and have served as an emergency physician in the area since completing my residency at Shand's Hospital. Having traveled extensively along the Florida coast, I can confidently say that South Ponte Vedra Beach is one of the most beautiful and unspoiled regions in the state. The coastal wildlife, from the expansive bird preserve across the street to the vibrant St. John's River fishery, is unparalleled.

Why they chose this property

Our house is situated on the northern part of South Ponte Vedra Beach, a particularly sought-after area. Across A1A lies Guana River State Park, home to a large tidal estuary and a bird and wildlife preserve. This vast preserve attracts an abundance of pelicans, ospreys, egrets, cranes, and wood storks, which you can often see flying overhead and feeding in the ocean. This section of the beach remains free from commercial development, preserving its natural beauty. The beach is wider in this area than it is further south and remains largely untouched by the potential erosion that storms can bring.

What makes this property unique

The house is large (3000 sf) and rebuilt in 2013. As such, guests enjoy a vacation right on the sand without having to tolerate the musty, beach-shack experience that can be found in older homes. As the photos portray, the house is well appointed and beautifully decorated.
