Swim right up to the edge of serenity at Beachy Keen. Located within easy walking distance to the not-so-crowded beach, this family-friendly home offers something for everyone. Great for entertaining, the tastefully appointed interior features a well-equipped kitchen and dining space, plus two separate living areas. One includes a games table, TV, and sliding glass door access to your private pool - the ultimate hangout space. The crown jewel, however, is your resort-style backyard oasis. Sunbathe on lounge chairs between refreshing dips in the sparkling pool. There's a shady cabana and the dining table offers additional seating for poolside snacks.
Situated at the quiet end of Jacksonville Beach, you're just a short walk to the ocean and a mile from the family-friendly Sunshine Park with a splash pad and skate park. Attend the Sea Walk Pavilion for concerts, outdoor movies, and festivals. Historic St. Augustine, the nation's oldest city, is under 30 miles away. This prime location puts you close to multiple shopping, dining, and entertainment options.

Great location, loved the pool and how close it is to the beach. Everything you need is available at the property for use. Definitely recommend
5.0 / 5.0
Great location, very short walk to the beach. The pool area is great! The shed has about everything you need for the beach, including a wagon and cooler and very nice chairs. Beach towels and lots of extra towels for the home are available. Several fans provided. The home is close to many stores but still so quiet, at night you can see the stars and hear the ocean. Very relaxing and clean home in a very nice well maintained neighborhood.

We had a wonderful time at this home with the best location. We all really enjoyed the pool.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved the privacy of the home, in a quiet neighborhood and with a the fenced in private pool, we could just relax. The pool area is definitely the selling point and best part of the property. So welcoming and has everything you would need. And it’s close to the beach, with a direct access, and the beach was peaceful and not crowded like the bigger beaches. And having the shed with everything you would need to float in the pool, to a chair to sit in at the beach was great! We would definitely come back if we ever go to the Jacksonville Beach area again!

This is our second time in back to back years renting Beachy Keen. We love the convenient access to the beach, the quietness of the area, and having a private pool to enjoy. Everything we need is provided but it’s only a short drive to multiple restaurants and stores in the area. We will be back again.

A group of my best friends and I stayed here for a girls’ “stay-cation” and had a ball! While we packed the weekend full of fun activities around the Ponte Vedra and Jax beaches, we still adored getting to spend the afternoons poolside soaking in some sun! We had a marvelous beach day during our stay as well and were happy to find a cooler and an umbrella to bring down to the beach with us! We surely would have melted in the heat with out them! Thanks Vacasa and owners for thinking of everything so we didn’t have to!

4.0 / 5.0
The house was perfect even though this is the first time I was unable to give a five star review.
Pros- Nice house with a large open floor plan, the family room looks out onto the pool. The pool is huge (unheated ), the backyard is so beautiful we spent a large portion of our time there. The house amenities make it easy to feel at home, and the decorations are attractive. This house is located on a quiet residential street with just a very short walk to the beach. Catching morning sunrises with ease. The house is also conveniently located to a gas station, grocery store, ice cream shop, and coffee shop. This home is a real gem where you can make real memories with your family.
Cons- Trying to contact Management will send you to a main office, but you will not speak to any local managers or local cleaners. I forgot a sentimental and pricey necklace on the master bedroom end table and contacted Management at 1 PM the day of check out. This is at least two hours before any new guest can check into the house. I was told on the 8th and 9th that they are still trying to get in touch with local management to just know that they are trying to locate the necklace. Today is the 10th and still no word. I don’t understand why they can’t locate their local Management or my necklace I told them exactly where it was. My only other con would be the windows need cleaned.
Overall the owner gets 5 stars but the management would get 3 stars, so I rated my stay at 4 stars.

Loved the private pool & the cabana was a nice area to relax in the shade. The beach access was just a short walk away. Kitchen had everything we needed. It was a perfect home for our 3 generation family vacation. 😊

There are no TVs in 2 of the 3 bedrooms and no TV in the one main living area. I would recommend more TVs ESPECIALLY if you plan on bringing children

Absolutely stunning property. We were so sad the pool was too cold to swim in though. Great location near numerous beaches. Hope to visit again!

Cute little house by the beach, meaning walking distance to the beach.
We will be back
4.0 / 5.0
The proximity to the beach and Jax Beach amenities is great. The overall space of the house is perfect for hanging out. We loved the big sectional sofas. While not a warm-weather trip for us, the pool area looked amazing. It was a fun surprise to walk into Christmas decorations set up.
Just know this is an older beach home. It is charming but not overly updated (which was just fine for our family). Our only dislike was very firm mattresses on each bed. Communication with Vacasa proved to be difficult but we found a way to communicate with the owners directly. They were above and beyond helpful!
We would stay here again the next time we travel in to visit with family.

We enjoyed our little vacation in this beach house. Short walk to the beach. There is a shed out back that has all the things needed for the beach! Chairs, umbrellas, beach wagon, toys, and even a surf board. The backyard was beautiful, it was so nice to come from the beach and chill in the pool. The kitchen has everything you need for a BBQ. We will definitely be coming back to stay!

Location is great. Back yard is lovely even though it was too cold to use the pool, it was nice to sit out back and chat. The house is old, but has some updates and seems to be well maintained. It’s spacious and roomy. My only complaint is it wasn’t clean. I could write my name in dust on the headboard of the main bedroom and the dishes in the kitchen were all dirty.

Awesome House
The house is in a great location - 2 blocks from the beach. It is spacious and extremely comfortable. There is a shed in the back filled with beach supplies - truly awesome. And perhaps best of all for those who love to cook when renting a home, the house was stocked with all you need to cook a delicious meal (we cooked many dinners and lunches) - spices, oils, blender, etc., etc. It really is the best stocked kitchen I've ever experienced (beside my own home!).

Great house 1 block from the beach!
The house was comfortable, clean and so close to the beach it was almost right on it! Good kitchen, beds were comfortable, wi-fi worked fine, wished we could have gone swimming (not a heated pool). We were house hunting ourselves, and would use this again possibly when we come back in a couple of months.

Lovely beach home in a great location!
This home is just as described! It is very well maintained, had everything we needed for our short stay, and the location was perfect for our needs (close to Mayo). Would definitely book this home again, hopefully next time when we can take advantage of the beach!

Keen on Beachy Keen
The proximity of Beachy Keen to the beach, shopping, and eats was so nice. The decor inside and outside the home was something I wish I could pick up and transfer to my own home! We did have an issue with one toilet being out of commission for our entire stay but the owner worked with us on a reimbursement for the inconvenience. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!
