Oceanfront Parardise! Private Home Just Steps to the Ocean!

Janet was awesome! Fast responding and friendly! The house was wonderfully decorated and clean. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and more. It literally was like walking into your own house just needed to bring your clothes and food. We will definitely rent again!

Great location. Easy access to the beach.

Great place to stay! We loved it !

We love Vilano Beach, so this home was a great location. The weather turned on us and kept us from being able to enjoy the outside as much, but the home was comfortable enough to make it okay. A wire outside came down during a storm. Not knowing what it was for, we notified the host. Even though she was out of the country, she responded right away, contacted utility companies, and kept us informed. We were very happy with her responses. If you like being on the beach, I recommend staying here.

Home was as advertised and Janet was very responsive about any questions

We have a family vacation every summer and selected St Augustine and this house for this year. The house had 2 separate apartments which were included in the one listing. The right apartment (1 bedroom/bath) was ground level and walked directly out to a patio and the beach. The left apartment was upstairs (2 bedroom/bath) and had a balcony. The same security code worked for both units, making it easy for us to go into each side without issue.The owners thought of everything when it comes to amenities. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, glasses, flatware and pots-n-pans. The bathrooms had plenty of shampoos, conditioners and body washes. And the beach accessories were abundant as well. We brought chairs/beach towels/floats etc. None was needed as they had it all.The owner was very good with communication and answered the few questions we had. We would definitely stay here again, if available.

Great location and property is roomy and well maintained. Very clean. Beds were very comfortable.

The property is older. Things that I suggest to change. the back-up bedrooms on the 1st and 2nd floor, those mattresses are terrible. May be good for children but not for adults. The 2nd floor master BR was the best mattress.The other item is the ground floor patio that leads to the ocean. There are broken cement tiles that cause tripping as you step off of the porch, this causes an issue for people with mobility issues.

Beautiful location. Nice house. Everything you might need is already there.

We have stayed in several condos and houses in St Augustine, this is by far the best one, love the covered porch so if it rains you can still sit out side, the down stairs apartment was perfect. Steps to the beach.

The home is outdated, but that was not an issue for me and my family. The issue was the lack of maintenance and repairs needed in the beach home. The owners have a lack of interest in maintaining the home properly. The following are maintenance and repair issues that we experienced: Dishwasher does Not Clean Dishes. Also, the Bottom of the Dishwasher Rack Wheels are not working. The Washing Machine makes error codes during the spin cycle and does not spin dry clothes. The Front Upstairs Door has a dangerous nail sticking out, and the wooden door frame is cracked and needs replacing. The barbecue gas grill wheels were broken off, so it was extremely difficult to move out of the garage. Three lamps were missing on/off switches. Poor lighting in the upstairs kitchen, and the light was broken. Various lights need to be replaced. Lots of Rusty items that are Hazardous. The home had a clutter of family old photos and belongings. Also, many items that were broken should have been discarded. The bottom floor mother-in-law's sweet bathroom has a high step to sit on the toilet.Just wanted to note that the water in the home is sulfur water, so both the bath and drinking water smell like rotten eggs. We used about 24 gallons of purified water. This was a lot of weight and work to bring with us into the home. We enjoyed the beach and views from the covered balcony. The beach and views of the beach were a 10 out of 10.

Decided to create a new tradition and couldn’t have been happier with our choice! Property exceeded expectations. Incredible ocean views which was our main objective. Just a great time and we can’t wait to go back!

Property was as described and a wonderful stay

We have been vacationing in the St Augustine area for 25 years, and this is my favorite place we’ve stayed so far. I love the charm of old Florida combined with the updated bathrooms and appliances. The covered deck is heavenly, and stepping out the door onto the sand was wonderful. Janet was very kind and easy to communicate with. We loved our week.

The Bad. First floor bathroom has two steps up to the toilet, wish they had been noted in property description. It was difficult to navigate. Had to rearrange our sleeping arrangements. Then there was bug infestation issue on the first floor.It was addressed by owner but still meant 40% of rental was unavailable to us during our stay. A minimal refund was offered only after being suggested. The Good - the ocean view

My wife and I thoroughly loved this property. Fantastic beachfront and excellent view from the deck. Sadly, due to beach erosion we had to use another method to enter the beach area but honestly, it was no big deal as it is right beside this house. Will visit again!

We loved the amazing oceanfront view!
