We loved being at this location. The views including sunrise and sunsets were amazing! We met plenty of surrounding neighbors too! This is our 4th time in St Augustine but our 1st in this home. It accommodated our family of 9 adults and two small children beautifully. It is very spacious and comfortable with lots to do!! We would love to come back her someday!

Nice home and great location, just 30yds from beach access. Full view of ocean from top level deck (nice for viewing sunrise). Very nice kitchen, dining and common space for family gathering. Only con to the home is the bathroom configuration. Namely, that there’s two suites with their own yet the remainder of the (10+) guests share a single bathroom on the 2nd level. Not a problem for a close family, but just be aware.

The Beach house was simply amazing. We had a large family and the space was perfect. The beach was just a short walk and the views were spectacular!!! We enjoyed swimming in the pool and relaxing on the endless deck watching the waves crash. The host: I can’t say enough great things about the host. Highly responsive and extremely kind. They provided us a complimentary late check out which was very much appreciated. If you’re reading this review - look no further and just book the stay, no regrets!!!
