Good stay.

Loved the location, roominess of the home & outdoor space. Very comfortable bed. Needs a little fresh paint & TLC. Turned over the table runner, caked with food. Never figured out the tv & poor water pressure.

Family Vacation

I booked this for some family time while in St Augustine for a wedding. Three siblings, a girlfriend, and our 84 year old mom. It was a perfect location on the Inter-coastal waterway and a short walk to the beautiful, nearly empty beaches in mid April. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, not party central, however there is a Boat Club next door, no functions during our stay, but they do rent their space. fyi The property managers were attentive to our needs, with immediate responses to our inquiries. My family and I had a great visit and would stay here again.

Wonderful place for a getaway!

Four friends of many years came here for 2 nights for a girls get-away. The home is very clean, nicely decorated, and had everything we needed. It was comfy, and close to the beaches and historic St. Augustine. We will definitely keep it in mind for future trips!

This property needs serious attention. The towels and sheets are substandard. Icemaker didnt work, poor water pressure in kitchen. We brought steaks to grill. The grill was so filthy, had to cart the steaks home.

Excellent beach cottage

This St. Augustine Beach cottage was perfect for us. It was spacious, quaint, charming, cozily decorated, and had more than enough room for six of us. It’s conveniently located a few minutes from the beach in one direction, less than a minute from the boat dock/river in the other direction, and less than a five minute drive to downtown St. Augustine. We would definitely stay there again.

Great location, perfect size for us. Beautiful beach. Outdoor furniture needs refreshing and the coffee maker had mildew on the inside along the top. It would be nice to have tub mats so as not to get the floor wet and two light bulbs were out in one bathroom.

Perfect getaway for our foursome of friends.

We wanted to see Nights of Lights but did not want to be in town or at a stale condo or expensive hotel. This place was perfect. Hate to attract interest but highly recommend. The only downside were the high fees but still doable. We took an Uber to and from downtown and had really good food on Villano.

The cottage was even better than we expected, we are seasoned vacation property renters and have seen some truly horrible things in the past. This time we could only find a couple things to nit-pic,..the coffee maker has seen better days, the ‘under counter’ kitchen sink was loose and dropping down, the shower rod needs replaced in the master bathroom, also,..very low water pressure throughout the house. All relatively minor things. The cosmetic condition of the cottage was really great, super clean, smelled nice, lots of small household items were available for use if needed, we would gladly rent this property again in the future if returning to the area

Clean and quiet

House was clean and near the end of a dead end street. Basic amenities provided, could provide a few more things like hooks in the bathroom for towels and luggage racks. Beach access is right at the end of road which is about 4 blocks. Beach is nice. About a 10 minute drive to downtown St Augustine. Parking is tough to find and pricey. We ate at Aunt Kate's (very close) which was good and did shopping, fountain of youth, downtown fort and the evening cruise on the Black Raven - not for kids or the easily offended!

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay at your cute home. We would definitely recommend it but we did have a few suggestions: We would suggest providing either dishwashing detergent or a dish drainer for hand washing . The air ducts require cleaning. There were no hand towels or face cloths in the main bathroom. We had no trash bags for the kitchen . All above are minor issues and otherwise we loved it and we loved the neighborhood!

Loved the house! Just as pictured! One of the twin bed frames was not assembled and could have fallen when used. Bed frame needs to be put together. That room also needs better curtains as neighbor windows are In direct view and curtain is sheer. Kitchen well equipped. House was clean. Location is quiet & peaceful. Would come back again.
