Other Things to Note:
While we want all guests to feel right at home, we ask for your cooperation in a few areas.
1. Please do not lower the air conditioning below 68 degrees or raise the heat higher than 72 degrees. This will ensure our air conditioning system will maintain peak performance for all guests.
HEATED POOL DISCLAIMER
1. We may live in Sunny Florida but the pool still gets chilly sometimes! Pool heating is available upon request for an additional $40 per day. Please give us at least 48 hours notice so we can fire up the heater - it takes about 24 hours to reach that perfect temp.
2. Florida weather is amazing and unpredictable! Due to this, hosts cannot guarantee pool temperature. We will make every effort to maintain a temperate range of 78 degrees to 88 degrees. Guests must advise hosts 48 hours prior to arrival that they would like the pool to be heated! Please keep in mind, heating takes time so guest requests are very important!

Near of the historic downtown and very close to Fountain of Youth, the history that the house have is impressive and everything was like the description.
Very clean, super cute, historic home! We loved making s'mores at the firepit! The adults and kids loved the old style arcade games. Within walking distance of pretty much everything. We really enjoyed staying here!
Our host was the best!. Quick response when we need it and really a nice attitude. The house was in a wonderful neighborhood, close to a lot of attractions. It was clean and cozy.
We had everything we needed. Short walk to restaurants, shops and the historic downtown. The pool was clean and refreshing during the heat! I would recommend this bungalow for your next visit to St. Augustine!
Loved the Beehive Bungalow, such a cnvienient location to all of the St Augustine area. The Property is very clean and nicelylayed out, the heated pool was a Huge Plus. Definitely will return to this property in the future.

Check in was at 4pm, we arrived at 5pm and cleaners were still there. Apartment is very ruined, nothing compared to photos. There was dust everywhere.We booked this apartment mainly for the heated pool, but this has an extra cost that was not explained. We were charged extra 40 a day for the heated pool. The heating system did not work for two days during our stay, we were not even refunded a single dollar for this!!!I found a big dead rat in the back yard, maybe this is common in Florida but that didn’t thrill us.Not recommended!
Located in the perfect area! Walk or short drive to nearly everything! Trolley tour and old jail and old merchantile right on the corner. Pool was a big plus after a day of sight seeing! Grilled steaks one night and burgers another. Back porch was our hangout, loved the screened in porch and pool! Final night of our stay we enjoyed a nice fire in the fire ring. Nothing but good times!
It is all about location with this property! Quiet neighborhood for walking the dogs but with a quick walk we were at Stop 1 of the hop on- hop off trolley. It was perfect for our needs. It is an older historic home so the rooms are naturally smallish but for just two couples it was perfect. The interior of the home was clean and tidy as was the pool area. The pool was cold on arrival but we quickly figured out how to start the heater and took advantage of not just the pool but the fire pit. Wifi was excellent but if you are traveling with children there is just one television in the main sitting area. Carefully look at the floor plan as the bedrooms are "train car" style and the middle bedroom is interior with no window. We were glad to not have to use it! We all said we would absolutely stay again.
This place was absolutely amazing beautiful perfect location and so accommodating in every way. We had a blast and kids enjoyed there self’s as well. We will definitely be back. Probably one of the best we have been too that had everything we needed to make our trip amazing without stressing. Thank you
The house was perfect. Had all of the amenities and comforts of home. The owners attention to detail was perfect. We definitely recommend and would definitely come back for a second visit.
We were surprised how quiet this spot was considering how close it was to major tourist spots, the Old Town Trolley hub and the Fountain of Youth. After a long day of sightseeing, it was perfect to come back to a pool the kids could play in. The back porch is so relaxing to enjoy morning coffee and read. We loved walking around the corner each day to beautiful Magnolia Ave with the gorgeous trees draping over the road and peacocks everywhere!
The house was located on a quaint tree lined street close to the fountain of youth. The bedrooms did not have TV. The water pressure in the second bathroom was low so everyone used the master shower. Plenty of space and overall good place to stay
My husband, sister and myself settled in and had a wonderful time. The place was tastefully decorated and had all the ammenities! The beds and pillows were super comfortable and we all had agreat nights sleep. Also the place was very private with a fence around the property and a wonderful underground, private pool!!! Coffee in the morning on the deck by the pool was a real treat for us northeners. Would definitely recommend this place.
This home is perfect. The location couldn't be better and the house had everything we needled
We went as a delayed Christmas with family. The location allowed us ti walk everywhere. The only negative was ir was too cold to enjoy the pool and patio area. We did have to get a Hulu account on order to watch a football game in rhe evening, the home doesn't offer much on the way of tv.
We had a relaxing time. It was unusually cold. Hard to keep warm. One bathroom with tub was a little inconvenient. Was unable to use because of the size and height. Very quaint place
