Close to the beach and attractions

We were close to everything we had planned for the weekend. It was nice to have a place to come back to that was clean and spacious. We enjoyed having the hot tub to hang out in as well as the grill to cook dinner on. We will stay here again next time we visit.

Great rental near St Augustine for our getaway

Wonderful place that has all the amenities. We prepared many meals in the full kitchen and outdoor grill. Quiet neighborhood but still close to St Augustine and the beach! Very clean and in good condition. We would definitely stay here again!

Clean but average

The interior was clean and beds were comfy. A/c unit was powerful. However, I was disappointed with some aspects: the bathroom shower needs to be updated. It looks a bit dingy and the curtain rod was rusty. We were only provided 1 roll Of toilet paper and a half used roll of paper towel. No other amenities. In addition, the fire pit on the exterior was full of leaves and debris. It was not Cleaned out and the chairs were broken, dirty and extremely poor condition. No firewood or matches provided. The hot tub was a good feature but the screened in porch was dusty! Chairs and table were covered in dust and debris. Not cool. On top of that I had to remove all of the bed sheets from the beds and leave them in a pile. And I also had to throw the towels in the washer! I dried them, too! I’m not sure why they charge us for the cleaning service when we had to do a lot of it! I’ve never stayed at a host home where I had to do those things. This host has a lot of improvements to make if they want to stay competitive. I don’t say this to be mean, only to provide an honest review of our experience compared to other Vrbo homes.

A few days away

This place is incredibly clean. I was impressed. But, the plastic cover on the mattress needs a cover over it. It's very hot sleeping on plastic with a sheet over it. The ceiling fan just doesn't get it. Communication was prompt & courteous. Very easy to work with. Parking was a little tight with a full size pickup truck but back up cams are a blessing. A squirrel came to check us out. So cute.

A wonderful place with FANTASTIC options!!

We had a great stay in St Augustine with this unit! It was super clean and well stocked. The host is super nice and had great communication. Check in was very easy, and the emails from the host were very through and useful. We very much enjoyed the hot tub after a long day of sight seeing. We enjoyed it so much that we all said we needed to come back for a longer stay in this unit! Thanks for a great weekend! We are already planning to come back!

Why they chose this property

Location and layout. It is so close to the relaxing beach and blue intercoastal waters. Great for playing on the beach, swimming, water sports, boating, and fishing. Close drive to historical downtown exploring. The layout of the home and property is beautiful and perfect for a couple or small family. The back yard has a path to a fishing pond, a nice sitting area, hammock, firepit, and a screened in patio.
