Great experience
I’ve stayed in several units in this complex and been in several others rented by friends and family - all in the oceanfront towers. While those stays have been fun due to views and proximity to the beach, the units themselves have been nothing special. By comparison, this townhouse is very clean and comfortable. Very well equipped, appointed and maintained. For instance, knives that actually cut, cookware, dishes and cutlery that don’t seem like they were bought at a grocery store, appliances that work well, comfortable beds, quality linens, etc. etc. it’s clear the owners take care of it and their guests have been responsible and respectful. This was by far the best unit I’ve been in in the complex. I also came to appreciate that it’s much quieter than the oceanfront towers with the rowdy pools and with much easier parking. Just all around an upgrade. Will definitely book again.

We Love ocean Gallery and have been coming here for years. Condo was clean and had lots of little extras that made it a nice comfortable stay. Host was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. First time being by lagoon instead of the pool and we loved the privacy and quietness it offered. Enjoyed our stay very much. Will definitely book this condo again.

A Great Beach Place to Unwind with Friends
We have been coming to this condo for a number of years and always have a wonderful few days away together. We've developed favorite restaurants & shopping spots just short drives away, but the best parts of our stays are the time spent relaxing at the beautifully furnished and well-equipped condo, the walks on and time at the beach, and an afternoon or two at the pool when the beach is really hot! You won't be disappointed if you book Sand in My Shoes. It will be the best "sand" in your shoes! We're long-time girlfriends who work to set the time aside to be together--and the Ocean Gallery is our pick year after year. Enjoy!

Another Great Girlfriends Getaway
Four of us returned again to Lee Anne's beautiful condo for a few days of relaxation and fun at the ocean, Ocean Gallery, and the St. Augustine area. We spend the majority of our time together at the beach, either walking or relaxing in chairs provided while we share the time together, at the condo, and also some time at the heated pool and poolside. Our plane had to be de-iced before our trip this year, so the warm sun and warm condo atmosphere were both most welcome. You will enjoy getting Sand in Your Shoes here, too!

Wonderful Experience
The townhome was very spacious and well equipped. We especially liked the view from the master bedroom lanai. It is a short walk to a lovely stretch of beach. The complex is quiet and the pool at the clubhouse was wonderful. Lee Anne was great about communicating with us. We are returning next year and would certainly recommend this townhouse.

Amazing experience!
What a beautiful property in such an excellent location. A very quick walk to the beach, we counted 500 or so steps! A 10 minute drive to Downtown and within easy distance to many great restaurants and ice cream shops! We were lucky enough to spend 6 weeks here. I was with my two sons ages 12 and 9, and they absolutely fell in love with the area, the sights and the culture. But especially the beach. Leanne was great and available whenever we needed her. The condo was spotless upon arrival and had everything we needed for a comfortable 6 week stay. We will definitely be back to visit!! Thanks again Leanne for sharing this treasure with us!

Another Great Time!
We have enjoyed a great Girlfriends Getaway at Sand in My Shoes several times, and this year was another one of fun & making memories on the beach and in St. Augustine, while staying at Sand in My Shoes. The recent updates are great, and even though the high waves and even higher wind made our beach time a bit of a challenge, we had a wonderful & relaxing time together. Lee Anne is a thoughtful host, dedicated to making your time at her lovely condo a fun escape.

Our home for 2 months
This unit became our home for 2 months. It is large, airy, well equipped with all appliances in excellent working order. The bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs provide privacy and quiet areas if needed. The small powder room on the main floor was a great asset. Ocean Gallery is a gem. Could not ask for a better "home" for our getaway from the cold winter months in Canada. Thanks LA for sharing your home.
