Wonderful House

This house is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need. Plenty of space without being on top of each other. A short walk to a beautiful beach. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Good Ole beach house

My family and I visit St. Augustine every year after Christmas. This beach house was old and rustic with some new updates inside. Besides no door on the upstairs bedroom, I wouldn’t say we had any complaints about the property at all. John was a perfect host. He even gave us parking passes to downtown. If you don’t know it’s at least 20 a day to park and with this it was free everyday. We loved the location. We literally walked across the street and we were on the beach. We look forward to visiting again and staying in this area. Thanks John for your hospitality.

We loved our stay. John was very responsive and kind. The beach house came with everything you can think of, including towels and an air fryer. Beautiful beach, but the property is more like 120 steps from the beach and you have to cross A1A.

Repeat Visitors

This property feels like home. We have stayed here each visit to Saint Augustine. The first time, we got engaged in 2022. This year, we got married and stayed at the property. John was great to communicate with before and during our stay. Each visit has been 10/10. I highly recommend staying here. The walk to the beach is short and easy. The beach was perfect and clean. Our dog also enjoyed the beach area. If you’re coming into town, stay here!

Best Place in Vilano

So lucky to have found this place. The property is clean and tidy. The owners had supplies provided. Our dog came as well and gave it 4 paws up! Super easy to reach the property owner too. It was my birthday and the owners left a bottle of delicious wine for the occasion. I ended up being proposed to on the nearby beach as well!! A trip to remember. Will definitely book this home again. 10/10 stars!!

Amazing beach home!

We had such a great time at this house. It was a short, easy walk to the beach. There was plenty of room to spread out, it was exceptionally clean, and the owners were attentive. We really appreciated the parking card for parking in downtown St. Augustine. We are regular visitors to St. Augustine and know that parking can be expensive. We also appreciated the restaurant recommendations. Overall it was a fantastic long weekend, and our only regret was not being able to stay longer!

Perfect cottage get away

Cottage was a gem and very accurately depicted in the write up. Loads of space and being across the road from the beach was not a deterrent at all as the pathway through the dunes was close by. If you want a 5 star resort this place is probably not for you but if you are looking for a comfortable, laid back and un-pretentious cottage, I strongly recommend this spot.

Great House and Location

We really enjoyed staying here. It was perfect for myself, my husband, and my dog. It was set-up for entertaining. It would be a great house to go with another couple. We are used to staying right on the beach, so I was kind of nervous having to walk, but the walk to the beach was not bad at all!

Great getaway!

We had a great time at this property. The house was very clean and nice. The kitchen looked to be recently updated and was well stocked. The master bedroom was very nice but we ended up staying in the guest room to avoid the extra stairs up to the master. The area was extremely quiet and peaceful and perfect for us. The beach is just a very short walk and also quiet and isolated. We were a little disappointed that we couldn't see the ocean at all due to the building next door but still a great location. The house is also very close to a grocery store and only about a 10 minute drive to downtown St. Augustine. The owner was very nice and helpful as well and responded quickly to any questions. The only minor downside for us was having to constantly carry our small dogs up and down stairs to go outside but from reading previous reviews we were aware of this before we went and knew what to expect. Overall I would happily rent this house again and definitely recommend to anyone that does not have an issue with using stairs.

The Un-Beach House

My husband and I found this property listing to be deceptive, to say the least. "Sixty steps to the beach!" boasts the listing.--for the Jolly Green Giant, maybe. You cannot even see the beach from the property. It cost my husband and I almost $1,000 to learn that there is NO truth in advertising.

Nice place

We enjoyed the house. It was clean and had everything that we needed. The house is on stilts and it was very windy when we were there so it was interesting to feel the house move with the wind. It wasn't scary just unexpected. Location was perfect for our activities. Getting to the beach was not difficult although it involved crossing a busy road.
