We had a great time right on the beach! It was a short 20 min drive to St Augustine, but worth it for the privacy of the beach! The house could use some updating, but it fit our needs well.

Beach Beach Trip Ever!

This was our second year renting this home. The beach is beautiful and we often felt like we were on a private beach. We loved being so close to St. Augustine and hanging out below the deck enjoying the beach AND the shade. We'll be back!

Enjoyable stay at Sandy Feet

We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Feet. It is right on the uncrowded beach, offers a nice deck overlooking the ocean, and is convenient to everything we wanted to do. Owner was very pleasant and responded to inquiries promptly. Enjoyable week with friends.

Beautiful location

The house was located just far enough away from vilano there wasn’t any a large crowd but close enough to drive if you forgot something at the store. Had an issuer the second day but owner was easily contacted and fixed the issues quickly.

Absolutely Wonderful

The home was beautiful (the pictures do not do it Justice). All the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The deck was a perfect way to relax with morning coffee or to grill and enjoy the perfect view of the ocean. We felt like we had a private beach as we walked down from the deck!

Enjoyable 2nd Stay

This was the second time we had stayed at this wonderful beachfront home. There is plenty of room to sprawl out on the main floor and a large deck to enjoy meals on or just hang out. The best part is the ocean is only steps away! There are plenty of beach chairs and beach towels and even some boogie boards! We had no troubles checking in or out and everything was a breeze during our stay. I would highly recommend this lovely little beach retreat!

Great little gem

This was our 3rd vacation at sandy feet retreat. My family stayed 2 weeks and was awesome. Property was extremely clean and pictured acutely on vrbo listing. Tv in living room had a cracked screen and Collen (owner) had a new tv delivered in 2 days. If you want to be directly on the beach this is the house for you.

We were very pleased with the accommodations and access to the beach. We had one problem, the a/c upstairs went out during the last 1/2 our stay but the owner had a tech the next day on a Friday but unfortunately he needed parts and was unable to come back before we left on Monday morning. But the stay was very enjoyable and we would stay there again.

We really enjoyed the house and the location. There were very few people, so it was quiet, just the sound of the waves. We spent a lot of time on the deck plenty of comfortable chairs. The kitchen was well stocked; we cooked several nights. San Augustine was a short trip, and we enjoyed sightseeing and eating out a few nights. I would definitely like to stay at Sandy Feet Retreat again; we all enjoyed it.

Vacation getaway

Very clean and well equipped house. I chose this rental due to the pet friendly feature, but was constantly on edge as there are no secure areas for them to play. I wished they had either a fenced in yard or a gate closing off the second story deck. Once out, an extremely dangerous highway is directly across the street. I recommend bringing a baby gate. Young children would also benefit from this additional safety net. Plenty of sleeping areas. Nice comfortable king beds, but if steps are a problem for anyone in your party it could prove difficult. Both getting the dogs out or going to lower level bedrooms.Those steps are very narrow and steep. Location is great. It’s right on a nice clean and quiet beach.

Beachfront

This is our family of 8 plus dogs fifth year staying at sandy feet retreat. Owner is excellent to work with and house meets all my families needs. Parking can be tough but not impossible we have 3 full size trucks and its tight but doable. Very clean and pictures are accurate. My families favorite part of the house is oceanfront deck and of course right on the beach for many hours of fun.

This was the third time staying at Colleen's and it did not disappoint. The location of the house is perfect! There's plenty of room to spread out (inside & out). The beds are comfy and there's plenty of towels, toys & pantry items. We have created so many memories here, I would highly recommend staying here!!

slice of beach heaven

My new home away from home! I love being able to walk right out the back door and onto the beach. And almost just as important for me was being able to bring my dog and having the freedom to walk the beach without the public crowds. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Does not disappoint.
