Island Time -- Oceanfront Bliss

Step Into Island Time — Where Ocean Breezes, Relaxation & Luxury Await

The moment you step through the doors of Island Time, you’ll feel the world slow down. You’ve officially arrived on island time — a place where there’s nothing to do but breathe in the salt air, listen to the waves, and let your cares drift away.

Oceanfront Bliss
This 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath coastal retreat sits directly on the beach, offering breathtaking views from nearly every room. Step outside to your private dune walkover, stroll down to collect seashells, or relax by the saltwater pool and spa — perfect for lazy afternoons or evening soaks under the stars.
Halfway up the entryway stairs, you’ll find the sparkling pool and spa — your personal oasis for cooling off or unwinding after a day in the sun. Continue upward to the main porch, where a calming water fountain and panoramic Intracoastal sunset views set the perfect tone for golden evenings.

Main Living Area
Inside, the open-concept living space is designed for comfort and coastal charm:
A wall of floor-to-ceiling windows frames the Atlantic, bringing the ocean right to you.
A 60” HD TV, oversized sofa, and cozy chairs create the ultimate spot for morning coffee or movie nights.
A telescope lets you watch shrimp boats on the horizon or pelicans diving for their catch.
The kitchen features stone countertops, a large island beneath a skylight, stainless steel appliances, a built-in microwave, and a walk-in pantry — perfect for family meals or entertaining.
The dining area, with seating for eight and a stunning oyster-shell chandelier, makes every meal feel like an occasion.

Bedrooms & Baths
Primary Suite: King bed, oceanfront views, and private balcony access. The ensuite bathroom features a massive walk-in rain shower and a luxurious clawfoot soaking tub.
Guest Suite 1: King bed + cozy daybed, perfect for lounging or an extra sleeper.
Guest Suite 2: Two extra-long twin beds and a shared side porch overlooking the Intracoastal.
Downstairs Suite: King bed, full bath, and a second washer/dryer — ideal for guests seeking privacy or extended stays.
All bedrooms offer brand-new beds and plush linens for a restful night’s sleep.

Outdoor Spaces
Island Time’s outdoor amenities make it a true beachside paradise:
Private walkover to the sand below
Saltwater pool & spa (pool heat available for $176.25).
Multiple porches with ocean and Intracoastal views
Gas grill with propane provided
Beach gear, hoses & drying rack for easy cleanup after a beach day

Blissful Vacation

We had a wonderful week at Ocean Bliss- Everyone loved the gopher title living in the dunes and beach and pool were awesome. Night in the hot tub left us all relaxed after a long day. You can't go wrong with this stay!

Beautiful!

House was gorgeous, well-maintained, clean. Close enough to lots of activities in St. Augustine, but far enough to be away from the hustle and bustle. Can't beat the amazing views! Our stay in December was a little chilly, but a welcome escape from the cold of the Northeast. The hot tub was perfect and made up for the chill. Very relaxing, wish we could stay forever!

Turtle's

Beautiful property! We all enjoyed our stay, all was good except a visit from a spider the size of your hand. There was a leak in the roof and the pool was dirty , but they took care of it right away.

Beautiful property- a few issues

Beautiful home, wonderful beach. I dont normally write reviews unless giving a simple 5 stars, but I felt a bit ignored despite multiple requests to the property manager .I felt for a portion of the trip that I was working on the maintenance staff. The moment we walked in the door the smoke detector was going off. Not a problem except they sent the housekeeper, she told ME to get on the ladder to change the batteries. I hesitated but said as long as we have the property managers approval. Smoke detector needed 3 batteries and she brought two. I said we cant sleep with the smoker detector going off all night. She said leave it down and we will replace it in the morning. One day went by, then a second. I called again and they ubered me 3 batteries to replace. So I guess I was getting back up on the ladder. Once plugged back in, the actual house alarm started going off. I called property manager again, and they said someone would be right there. Sure enough the housekeeper comes back 5 hours later with 3 fresh batteries.... I felt like i was in a bad comedy routine. I also voiced displeasure the fountain stopped working after first day. They told me to fill it with more water and to reset the GFI outlet. Did not fix issue. Multiple requests, no one ever came. 200 charbroil grill was filthy, wear and tear on outdoor items. Also the only way in or out is the Yale door lock 2nd floor .Maybe leave garage entry option as the only stair rail was from thegarage for my 80 year old dad?
