About this property

Ocean Breeze Retreat - 6 minute walk to the beach!

Welcome to Ocean Breeze Retreat! This newly renovated townhouse is everything you need for a vacation getaway - pristine, cozy, stylish, comfortable, and welcoming. It's the perfect place to unwind after a busy day exploring historic St. Augustine or hitting the beautiful beaches. It is within walking distance of the beach and several waterfront restaurants. Just under 6 miles from downtown, it's close enough to enjoy all that downtown has to offer while also providing a quiet place to relax.

Newly renovated Ocean Breeze Retreat features 2 spacious bedrooms with comfortable, organic Bamboo mattresses. The Master bedroom has a king bed and a large en suite bathroom with a beautifully tiled shower. The Master bedroom also has a dedicated workspace for those who are looking for a place to work remotely while enjoying the nearby beach. Nightstands have built-in USB chargers for your devices. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed with a large closet and dresser. The stunning kitchen has all new appliances and cooking essentials. The living room has a Smart TV and the comfortable couch is perfect for lounging around or a movie night when staying in is more appealing than a night out. There is a fully fenced-in backyard as well.

St. Augustine and Vilano Beach offer a wide variety of things to do - from paddle boarding and water sports to many historical sights, such as the Castillo de San Marcos, the oldest masonry fort in the continental U.S. Enjoy morning or evening walks on the beach to view the beautiful colors of the sky as the sun rises or sets. Experience St. Augustine's food scene at the wonderful array of restaurants and if you're a fan of live music, there are plenty of entertainment venues as well. There is never a shortage of things to explore and we highly recommend looking up local events that are occurring during your stay. My favorite resources are Florida Historic Coast and Totally St. Augustine - each have their own websites and social media pages. We are happy to answer any questions you might have about this property or the St. Augustine area so don't hesitate to reach out! We also welcome your feedback and suggestions on how to make your stay even more enjoyable.

Spacious vacation oasis

Comfortable stay, unexpected amenities like wine and toy for our dog. Very accommodating and responsive host. Location was easy for Uber pickup to historic district. Fenced in yard. We forgot our phones and door code one early morning and got in within 5 minutes because we knew which door to knock on, for such an emergency. We drove to Vilano Beach pier several times. Amelia island was a great day trip.

Cute, comfortable and quiet!

We enjoyed a long weekend here. Wish we could have stayed longer. It is very close to the beaches and only a short drive to downtown Saint Augustine.

Comfortable, Quiet and Clean Inside

Beautifully updated and decorated. The only improvements needed is landscaping. Backyard is not very inviting and front tree leaves a mess on your car. It may be helpful to have a cart ( wagon) to take chairs, cooler and towels to the beach.

About the host

Hosted by Sonia ODell

Hello! I am a huge travel fan and am passionate about experiencing new places, cultures, and cuisines. I love to explore new cities, take in all the sights, and find the top-rated spots enjoyed by locals, not the tourist traps. I am also excited to now be hosting my very own airbnb!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with St. Augustine when I visited it one February - the historic downtown, the Spanish influence on architecture, the beautiful beaches, the abundant wildlife - all spoke to me. I decided that I wanted to have a little piece of St. Augustine for me and my family as a special retreat and I finally found this gem. It has been my own labor of love and I am happy and excited to share it with others.
