The cottage sits in a peaceful beach neighborhood within walking distance of restaurants, cafés, coffee shops, ice cream shops, and the St. Augustine Beach Pier.
Head out for morning coffee, grab lunch between beach visits, or stroll to dinner after a day in the sun. It’s a convenient location for enjoying the everyday pleasures of St. Augustine Beach.
EXPLORE BEYOND THE BEACH
Historic Downtown St. Augustine is a short drive away. Spend an afternoon exploring historic streets, local shops, galleries, restaurants, and the Castillo de San Marcos.

My wife, daughter, & I thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay in the Blue Beach House. We enjoyed the convenience of being only a short walk away from the beach, local restaurants, & shops. The house was well-furnished with everything we needed for a great vacation.
We had a wonderful stay with our two kids and doggies. Location is amazing, you feel the sea breeze all day long. The property is literally half a street away from the beach, 3 minutes walk tops. You also have a great coffee shop nearby, ice cream shop and restaurants, all walking distance. We are already planning our next visit! wonderful hosts, available when needed and welcoming.

About the host
Hosted by Renee W
In 2005 our family left NYC, on a grand adventure. Our goal was to survive outside of the 5 Borough’s conveniences ;)
We explored many places and somehow ended up here :) St. Augustine is Magical, Pristine. The people are nice. It consistently exceeds our expectations. We love it here... for more reasons than one can express in a small box.
We have made many friends hosting guests since 2008
Please come see St. Augustine for yourself. You may find something to fill your cup. WE DID!!!
Why they chose this property
The best beach, walk or bike everywhere… Not far from historic downtown… and great neighbors
