About this house rental

Our Island Time Beach Retreat offers travertine and tile floors throughout, brand new kitchen with high end appliances, 4 spacious bedrooms, a flex room with a sleeper sofa & 2 gorgeous baths with bronze finishes & gorgeous tile work throughout. Truly a beauty that must be experienced! An absolute dream beach home that offers the best of both worlds for all nature and water lovers! There are 2 smart TVs at the property: One in the living room, one in the master bedroom

This home is only a short 6 min walk away from a public beach access known to few locals and it offers the feel and serenity of a private beach. A short 7 min walk in the opposite direction is the Matanzas River with boat ramp access for all of your water toys and a nice dock to enjoy stunning sunset views over the river where you can take in the splendor of natures amenities.

The history of St. Augustine is incomparable with almost any other on our coast. Founded in 1565 it is chock full of amazing places to visit, from the oldest house to the first schoolroom, to the impenetrable fort built by the Spanish. Lincolnville, just south of downtown St. Augustine takes you on a walking tour of the history of the civil rights movement noting where Martin Luther King stayed on numerous occasions. Needless to say, there’s also so many unique shops, and the restaurants are so varied and truly have an international flavor! There are things to do no matter the weather! You can take a free boat ride to Fort Matanzas and learn the history about the battles fought. Further south is Marineland where you can swim with dolphins!

The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill. There are always concerts at St. Augustine Amphitheatre and events at Francis Field as well. You will never run out of things to do here in St. Augustine. It is probably one of the most beautiful places in all of Florida, and for sure one of the most photographed! Come and see for yourself!

Pets and Service Animals: You must let us know if you are bringing an animal to the home, even if it is a service animal! It's important to let the cleaners know. Up to 2 dogs are allowed with a nonrefundable pet fee. They must be less than 50lbs each and no aggressive breeds. NO CATS! Please do not allow your dogs to jump up onto the beds or couches. If the dogs are accustomed to being allowed on the furniture at home, please bring blankets to protect the surfaces. If you forget to bring blankets, let us know and we will provide you with some. If you bring a pet and do not tell us or pay the fee, we will charge your damage deposit for the pet fee plus $100 for the unexpected extra services required to clean the house.

Important info about pool heating and fees: Both the spa and the pool will be at the same temperature if you choose to heat the pool because they share the same plumbing and heater. Most people prefer a heated spa in colder temperatures to a heated pool because the spa is set to 101 degrees and the pool heater would be set to 85 degrees. If the daytime air temp doesn't get above 58 degrees the pool will have a difficult time staying heated. The heating of the spa is included with your stay. If you want to heat the entire pool we have an additional heating fee of $199 plus $25 per night to maintain the temperature. If you arrive at the house and change your mind about the pool heating, the initial heating fee of $199 will not be refunded.

Our pool technician comes on Tuesdays to check the chemicals and Fridays to clean. Our lawn/landscape professional comes on Wednesdays. These dates are subject to change based on weather or other factors, but in general that is when they are scheduled.

The cleaning company provides a limited amount of basic necessities (toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher/laundry soap, etc.) to get you started, you will want to bring some with you. Garbage and recycling must be taken out to the street Sunday night for Monday morning pickup.

We don't offer refunds or reschedule stays during hurricane season, even if there is an evacuation order. Please purchase trip insurance for your stay if this is a concern.

EV Charging: There is a fee of $5 per day if you will be charging an electric vehicle at the home.

Overall the house was better than the listed pictures, it provided enough space for our party and the back yard was great. Any question I asked was responded to quickly and I would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay in this house. The outdoor space was the highlight. The kids enjoyed the pool and the covered seating was great for reading outside. The house is spacious and everything was clearly labeled. Access to the beach was super easy and we enjoyed going to Kookaburra for coffee each morning. We did noticed that many of the light fixtures were very dusty. The house provides pool/beach towels but they are very thin. If you are in driving distance you might prefer to bring your own. Overall we really enjoyed the house.

Greatly enjoyed our time at “Island Time Beach Retreat.” Close enough to the beach to walk when up to it, but the proximity to vehicle beach access is too good to pass up! Groceries and food less than two blocks away, plus any local restaurant you could ask for within 15 minutes. Throw in the private pool to hop into at a moment’s notice, and an excellent time was inevitable for all of our group. The hosts were very proactive and responsive for whatever concern or need one might have needed. Fantastic overall!

We wanted a relaxing weekend for two families to spend some time together at the beach. This house was a perfect get-away. There was plenty of space. Keep in mind in your planning that this is a 4 bedroom house. As shown in the photos, the fifth "bedroom" is a sofa bed in a dining room. Fine to sleep in, but not a private bedroom. We had middle aged adults down to older teenagers. All found something to do. The Dads immediately found a place in the covered couch spot outside next to the pool. The teens enjoyed playing games in the heat of the day and going to Saint Augustine Old Town in the evening. The Mom's communed in the living room. And, everyone went to the beach in the mornings. The pool and hot tub looked lovely, but we didn't go in because the beach was only 5 minutes away! The closest beach entry point is walkable, but we drove and parked because we had things to carry with us. A short drive down the road is Crescent Beach with a few amenities, like bathrooms. All ages had their space, had fun and we achieved our goal of a fully relaxing weekend.
