Excellent stay at Vilano cottage

Very clean, comfortable, well equipped home. In walking distance to the beach and the intercoastal waterway. The only glitch for us was navigating the operation of the TV. A more detailed description of how the remotes work would have been helpful. Otherwise, an Excellent stay. I would recommend this property to friends and family.

This property was excellent for our situation. We were 4 adults (2in their 60’s and 2 in our 70’s). We were able to walk to two very good restaurants and to the beach. The property was very well appointed. Quiet neighborhood. Everything we needed within a short drive Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful home away from home

From check in to check out communication with the property manager was awesome! When we got to the house it was exactly as pictured and described in the listing. This house was decorated with a beach theme and it was clean! It was a great home away from home with all of the little extra's we didn't remember were already there. We would recommend this home and we would stay there again!

Great family spot

This property was a great for our family with 3 young kids. It is in a ideal location- a quick walk to the beach or over to the intercostal for fishing and a meal at Aunt Kate’s (we enjoyed many!) It was clean and very well stocked with everything from kitchen to beach supplies- even a little treat for kids and adults upon check in. We would love to come back during warmer weather!

The house was great-perfect location. The beach location was amazing! Not overcrowded, not crazy. We were close to historic St. Augustine. The drive there was easy and short. The kids loved jet skiing for the first time. All in all, it was a fabulous vacation!! Thank you Debi!

Sad we had to leave!

I fell in love with this cottage as soon as we pulled into the driveway! Everything was perfect for our stay with our two adult daughters. The quiet neighborhood and close proximity to the ocean were exactly what we were looking for, and this adorable cottage and all of the little extras Debi provided were the icing on the cake for us. We enjoyed daily walks/runs along the shore (a short 1/4 mile walk to the shoreline from the cottage), collected many seashells, watched the sun rise and set, and enjoyed the peacefulness of it all. We did some touristy exploring over the bridge in St Augustine which was also fun, though very busy in early January…we were happy to have the peace and quiet of this sweet cottage to retreat to afterward. We hope to be able to return to this little slice of Heaven in Vilano Beach one day and once again start the day with a cup of coffee while swinging gently on the front porch. A perfect getaway! Thank you, Debi!

Awesome 2022 Christmas!!!!

Debi is an excellent host! We traveled down this year to spend Christmas with our family. When we arrived the house was decorated with outside lights, many Christmas decorations, and a Christmas tree. This gave us the feeling we were at home. The house is in a great location between the beach and sound. Debi is very responsive to any needs we had. We had a very nice welcome package when we arrived that was a great touch! This is the 2nd time we've stayed at this house and we'll definitely be returning! Thanks again, Debi!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is convenient to attractions and Historic St. Augustine yet remote enough that it’s peaceful and quiet. Debi was gracious and helped us with some scheduling problems we had. Great experience and look forward to coming back soon. Dennis

Welcomed as a family

Debra treated us as a family. The house wad cleaned and very well organized. She provided even small details for our stay- condiments and bottled water in the fridge, snack and wine of our choice, lotions, make-up remover towels, phone chargers. In the garage Debra stored bikes with helmets, beach gear, surf boards, and many more. We felt welcome and loved. The house is a walking distance from the beach. We really enjoyed our stay.

Perfectly Located Jewel

This property was perfect for our St Augustine vacation. It is located just a very short drive from all of the historic attractions downtown and just an easy 5-10 minute walk to the beach. The house itself is located on a very quiet dead end street. The house was very clean and well kept and was perfect for our family of five. The homeowner was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Would definitely choose this location again.

We stayed here with our kids over Christmas and everything was exactly as advertised and completely amazing. Debi was a great host and even decorated the house with Christmas decorations, which our kids loved. Great access to beach and restaurants within walking distance, yet quiet and secluded. I’d stay again with my family in a heartbeat.

Great House

The house was very cute. The house has lots of little extras from bathroom goodies, to a well stock kitchen to great beach accessories. The walk to the beach is not bad. My teenage kids didn't complain nor did my 70+ mom who visited for the day. The house has bikes that we were able to ride to the beach also a beach cart to take chairs or boogie boards or whatever else we thought we would need. Deb was very responsive and great to work with. I would definitely recommend the rental to everyone!!

Adorable beach house

This house is beautifully decorated, very clean, great location between the intracoastal and the ocean. It was just me and two of my children, ages six and nine.We loved the front porch swing and enjoyed sitting there in the evening, feeling the breeze. The flowers smelled amazing! We would absolutely stay here again. The property owner really went out of her way to ensure that our stay was just perfect, and was very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend choosing this house for your vacation.

Incredible hospitality

This house was so cute! It was the perfect size for our family of 6, and Debi was a great host! The beach is a short walk and once you cross the highway it’s super easy! Shops are close by and there are tons of attractions 15 minutes away! We truly enjoyed our stay and couldn't ask for a better host. Debi thinks of every detail.

A hidden treasure in St. Augustine!

Our experience in Debi's property has been the best ever! Everything that we needed was there, and more. Impeccable clean, even decorated for the holidays which made us feel at home. The location of the property is perfect, only 1 mile to the beach. We enjoyed every day bicycling and walking. Next time we will rent the property for a longer stay!
