Jacksonville Beach, Florida
The Oasis at North Jax Beach has it all. Just 400 steps to the beach, complete with ocean views. There is a beautiful, brand new pool in the wonderfully landscaped backyard to accompany this quirky, yet charming, older beach house that has been recently renovated throughout with updated kitchens, baths, etc., while retaining the feel of coziness and quaintness found in older beach bungalows. When you are done swimming, lounge on the sun shelf or hop into the hammock and relax! The downstairs unit sleeps 10 (Bedroom with 1 Queen bed, Bedroom with 2 Queen beds, and a Bedroom with 1 Day Bed, as well as a built-in bunk bed with full size bed and twin bed). The upstairs unit sleeps four people with two large King bedrooms. Each unit has a separate outside entrance, (no interior stairs) but is rented as one large home for family and friends to gather. The large kitchen and dining room is located upstairs where everyone can enjoy big family feasts. The small galley kitchen downstairs is perfectly equipped for coffee and desserts. This beautiful Oasis is the ideal home for your family's favorite vacation spot for years to come!
House had slanted floors and hadn’t had a lot of upkeep on the exterior. Wasn’t as great as photos. Pool was dirty. Location is amazing. Beach access easy. Appliances worked. Backyard area is great and offers shading for large portion of day. I’d give this 3.5 stars but def not 4.
We had an amazing time celebrating my parents 50th with all their kids and grandkids! The kitchen was well equipped to host all our meals, the pool area was partially shaded and great for spending time relaxing together and the beach is right there to enjoy the sunrise and play!
Great Location - steps from the beach and the pool is wonderful!
Me, my two daughters, my sister-in-law and her son, my mom and mother-in-law stayed for five days. The set up was perfect and there was more than enough room for everyone. Plenty of comfortable beds and pillows, tons of bath and beach towels (this was a pleasant surprise!). The property is one block from the beach, and close to many nearby shops and restaurants (five seconds to a little ice cream stand!). The house has some quirks; the lean that others mentioned didn’t bother anyone but made us laugh a good bit! The home is probably close to 100 years old; and has obviously been renovated and definitely needs some further work, like any house of its age. We enjoyed the separate living spaces, the downstairs kitchenette was perfect for early morning coffee before breakfast. The AC was probably the best of any beach home we’ve stayed in - it was a brisk 69 upon our arrival and never struggled to maintain, and that’s amazing! William was quick to respond - upon arrival we noticed that the pool vacuum was damaged and sitting on the ledge. Aside from the home needing a good cleaning (windows and baseboards and things that a clean freak would notice, such as myself and MIL), however the floors and bathrooms and kitchens were very clean and well supplied. The only issue we had was that the washing machine didn’t work and wasn’t resolved during our stay. I’d suggest leaving some cleaning supplies for guests (windex, Clorox, etc), and Tupperware! And lamps! Thanks!
The beach house was clean with an easy check-in process. When I messaged the owner about a missing appliance, he responded quickly and replaced the item shortly after. My family and I had a great time.
I would not recommend staying at this property. Upon our arrival, the door handle to the front door had fallen off, the toilet was leaking, and the deck board had fallen through. I addressed these issues with Bill and he did send someone out to address the issues. After our first night, we saw a couple rats in the home. The rats ate our food, chewed on my daughters tablet case and got into our belongings. My daughters who are 4 & 6 also saw the rats in the living room. To say we were disgusted was an understatement. There is also rat traps and feces in the home in the closet where the air handler is located. And rat traps under the couch. There is also black mold on the AC vents. This house is absolutely unlivable and should not even be on VRBO as a listing. We did not swim in the pool because it was cloudy. I have pictures documenting our entire stay. Do not stay here. The owner also charged my card after my visit saying we broke the pool pump, when we not once stepped into the pool. Awful experience.
We loved this place and we had such a great time! The pool was great and be close to the beach was amazing!
The property is as described and it was actually nice having separate apartments. We would definitely stay there again.
This property couldn't be in a better location! We rented a golf cart ( Southern Breeze Cart Rental) and it was PERFECT ! Everything is cart accessible. The house has a lean to it- as it states in the listing, however we were honestly only in the house to sleep. This house is one block from the beach, and blocks from several restaurants ( Phillies, Lemon Bar, Land Shark and adorable boutiques. The pool was warm and amazing full sun!! There was a note to leave the pool vacuum connected and not to touch it while using the pool- that was annoying- the vacuum continually tries to climb your leg, that is honestly my only complaint, I see why it needs to be cleaning but, should be a better way to navigate that- maybe PM cleanings only? Anyway the house was great- we were left with only one trash bag in each house and one roll of toilet paper, so we did have to purchase items, also only two bath towels upstairs. These are all minimum things I noticed- since I hosted groups for years. However this may be a cleaning company issue. All in all we would def stay there again, because the location of the house was just perfect.
Accommodations were great and outdoor space was amazing
We rented this house for a family trip. The owner describes this place perfectly. It has its quirks with the slanted floors and there is no staircase indoors connecting the upstairs and downstairs. We were a party of 11- my family of 5, my brothers family of 4, and our parents. The grandparents ended up sleeping with the kids downstairs and the adults upstairs each with our toddlers in the king beds. The first day was a little tricky learning how to function in the house but then we all agreed that we would totally rent this house again. The location to the beach is perfect and the pool was the biggest hit and where our kids spent most of their time. The house was clean and the beds were super comfortable. The owner was readily available and very prompt in answering all of my questions. We had a great time and would definitely book this house again.
