The Historical Shrimper's, Large Family, Oceanside Beach House w/Lawn

Absolutely amazing location! And the hosts are so incredibly nice! They were great to communicate with and provided great hospitality. The house is in a perfect location, just a few steps from the beach and a few steps from restaurants. Very dog friendly area and house. We had six adults and two dogs and there was plenty of room for everyone! The communal areas are great for large groups.

This house is so charming. It has character and eclectic style without feeling kitschy. And great location. I will return.

A cozy family home with a classic vintage feel. Very clean and the owner was easy to communicate with.

Cool, unique, home located close to everything we love! Great vacation spot, lots of memories were made! Thank you Aloe and Renée!

Great location, cool house, fantastic hosts!

Great host! The house was clean and very family oriented. Had games and kids toys. Loved the historical aspect of it. Felt very homey!

We had 12 days at this fun and unique property. Staying there is like immersing into a wonderful retro museum. The house and its contents are true to the 60’s-70s. The house is very well equipped in the kitchen. It has lots of room for privacy. The big porch facing the ocean is a great place to relax and listen to the ocean. The beach is right there - beautiful beach, clean, with no cars. We walked for 5 hours total in one direction. The host, Renee, was very attentive and checked in with us by text several times. She explained the history of the house - former owners were shrimping magnates in the area. We saw reference to them in several museums we visited. We truly enjoyed our stay. The house itself was a part of our vacation - it’s that unique. Others have mentioned - the ice cream store “Cone Heads” just 1/2 a block away from the house is fabulous! We actively compared other ice cream stores in Saint Augustine. Cone Heads really is the best. So nice to have it so close to the property. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance too. Beachcombers was our favorite. We hope to return some time in the future. Thanks for sharing this great property with the VRBO community.

We had to escape Hurricane Helene damage and the host was extremely flexible and kind.

What an honor to stay in this family house full of nostalgic family treasures and style. We loved that we could so easily wander to the beach. We enjoyed even the rainy days in the sunroom. Loved it!

We had a wonderful family time. Aloe and Renee were really nice, helpful, and very accommodating. Easy access to the beach was very nice. The extras were a plus. The beach cart was a lifesaver. The whole family thoroughly enjoyed playing croquet. The extra chairs were a blessing to the kids. Thank you

Comfortable

The house is fantastic and has all the space and basic amenities you would want. There is a outdoor deck as well as an enclosed florida room type space upstairs. Close by many restaurants and shops/stores and about 15 mins from St. Augustine historical downtown. Ice cream place down the street as well. The hosts are very nice and very communicative. Highly recommend.

Great eclectic historic beach house. We have an annual family and friends beach week and we have been to this VRBO multiple times because it is great. It is a large house with lots of character. The owners are super nice and the house comes stocked with everything you need. Highly recommend.

This was the perfect beach house for our group. We had multiple families staying with us. A house away from the beach, down a dead end road leading to the beach access ramp. The host were very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We would highly recommend this house if you are looking for a fun beach vacation. Plenty of family things to do around the area within walking distance.

The house was absolutely amazing! Steps from the beach. The beach was clean and not crowded. Our hosts were amazing! The house was very well stocked and even had beach toys. The house was full of toys, games, and puzzles. If we are ever in Florida again this will be the first place we check out.
