Nice walk to beach everyday

I am really hesitant to promote Fort Flox to the masses because of my desire to keep it my family’s hidden little gem! This home is absolutely stunning……has a backyard jacuzzi……steps from the beach…..& a few minutes from old town STA. This is hands down our favorite place to stay in FL. The owners are phenomenal & closely communicate with you regarding anything. We would highly recommend this home just hope it doesn’t get to where it is always booked a year out! LOL

We were there for our daughter’s wedding. Great place for family to gather. The house is so well equipped i never had to use my own knives….a rarity in any house we’ve rented. nice quiet neighborhood not too far from beach. Sarah was very responsive to any questions.

Close to the beach. Location is great and private. Close to restaurants, Publix, and downtown St. Augustine. Beautifully decorated and comfortable. Over-all decently clean, especially for it being dog-friendly. Plenty of space and beds were okay. Both bathrooms are ensuite to two of the bedrooms. The Mosquitoes are terrible!!!! I bought mosquito bands, spray, Thermacell repellers, and multiple candles and we were still eaten alive. Tons would even fly into our cars. Found 3 roaches inside along with a giant spider in the garage and multiple on the house. I also had some sad kids when we found out the pool is 2 miles away and an extra $300. I totally understand the hosts not just paying it, but it should be made known before booking when it is advertised as having a pool. If the Mosquitoes and other bugs were taken care of, along with some other matinance issues, i would consider staying again.

We were attending a music festival in St. Augustine for the weekend and this property was so cute! It was very clean, nicely renovated, and had everything we were looking for. It was close enough to downtown St. Augustine to easily catch an Uber for 10-11 dollars each way. The check in process was very smooth. The hot tub wasn’t working upon our arrival, but it wasn’t really a big deal. It would be nice for a family vacation, as it has a third bedroom dedicated to children, with a bunk bed. It was well stocked with anything you would need for a little beach vacation. The house is located about a mile from the actual beach, on a quiet road. It is close to the beach but I’m not sure I would walk there if you have small children, just due to the traffic. We didn’t have any issues with noise or neighbors. It’s located in a great spot with a Publix nearby and other conveniences. Door dash also delivers there. The outdoor deck and backyard area was very nice. It has a large table outside that seats 6 and that’s where we hung out a lot. It was perfect for what we were doing and I’m really happy we picked it for our trip.

We enjoyed the house and the location. The home is well done. Good kitchen , clean hot tub, great beds. Everything is well done.

Property was just as advertised. Will stay again in the future.

Super cute house, close to beach and our local friends. Enjoyed our visit and would stay here again. Loved the master, hanging out with friends in the kitchen and loafing on the sofa for movies. Owner was very responsive and kind.

This was our second time staying at the property and once again everything was wonderful. Clean, beautiful home with excellent communication. I think it’s the best one on Vilano!

Super nice and comfortable living/sleeping area. Back deck area very nice.

Great accommodations for friends escaping mud season up north! We only had to walk a block to the beach - and the beach was perfect! (not super busy but so many shells...) The house was decorated beautifully, had comfy beds, and a hot tub! Sarah was quick to answer our every question. We wish we could go back now...

We really enjoyed our stay at this updated beautifully decorated home. The fenced in backyard was great for enjoying morning coffee and playing frisbee with our dog. The outdoor shower came in handy for cleaning off after walking on the beach. Sarah & Aaron are amazing owners - very responsive & helpful in all aspects during our 2 week vacation.

Good access to beach

We absolutely loved this property!! We have stayed at several in Vilano, but this one took the extra step in every sense of the word. The location is perfect. Updated and beautiful on the inside and the hosts were wonderful-great communication. We plan to come back for sure!

Other than a few small issues that were being addressed as part of hurricane damage, the place was exactly as described and pictured. Excellent place to hang out and relax. Beach is really close and SO many places to see in St. Augustine.

We had a great stay! The home is centrally located near the beach, attractions and shopping. The home is beautifully remodeled. It has a nice open floor plan and was very clean. The owners were very responsive and provided all the details we needed for the house and the area which was very helpful. We would definitely stay there again. :)

This house is absolutely beautiful! It looks like a place that was just remodeled on HGTV. We arrived a week after Hurricane Ian and everything was cleaned up and in perfect condition. The proximity to the beach was great. The house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood, but close enough to St. Augustine to go out on the town. The kitchen was well stocked with essential items. The owner was very kind, checked in with us and responded quickly. We hope to come here again!

We absolutely loved our stay at this property! The entire experience from booking, to stay, to checkout was phenomenal. The owners (Sarah) are very hands on through the process which is very nice. They really want you to enjoy their home as they do. All recommendations for food and excursions were spot on for us! The beach is so close for kids and a sunset dog walk. It was amazing! My dog loved the fenced in back yard. The home is completely renovated and updated. It was so clean and we had pretty much everything we needed to stay for a few days. I personally loved the kitchen! My kids loved the fireplace and hot tub outside. My husband and grandfather loved the local fishing in St Augustine. We will be booking again in the future. Thank you Sarah for letting us enjoy your home…best super host ever!

Love the proximity to the beach and is only a few minutes walking distance. The home is beautiful and located in a quite area. The home is very well maintained and very clean! The owners are wonderful people to work with and respond efficiently to any concerns and needs. My family would definitely return to this property.

The house is beautiful inside and out, the backyard is very private with nice shade trees and tropical plants. The inside is clean and uncluttered while still offering all of the convenience one would want and the kitchen is a cooks delight

Nice kitchen with great kitchen equipments. Nice bedding and sheets and towels.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your lovely home. It is a quick and easy walk to the beach. We walked the neighborhood each morning which was not only safe but peaceful for family. Your house is up to date, open and airy, impeccably decorated… a true tropical oasis. The hot tub out back is so inviting. The outside shower is great too and allows for access straight into the house. We will be booking again soon and feel that many of your guests will choose to return year after year.

Beautiful and very clean property and great location! Very easy walk to a spectacular beach! Particularly enjoyed the modern kitchen and spacious common area. Back deck useful not only for relaxation, but also for remote work if necessary. House came with everything we needed- great wifi, dishes, tons of towels, games, etc. but also for our newborn baby- brand new pack and play and high chair. Owners were extremely helpful! Our family plans to stay there again in the future!

Sarah and Fort Flox were amazing! Sarah was so helpful and responsive to all my questions and was really fast to get back to me whenever I had a question. The house was really nice, the photos don't do it justice, really well stocked kitchen and the whole place felt really new and clean. My husband really enjoyed the hot tub. The beach is really easy to get to and there were comfy beach chairs - it's about a 2 min walk and easy, direct access at the end of the street. The beach itself was really clean and our kids had fun playing in the water. The house is super kid friendly btw. The gym in the house was great and our kids had a ton of fun making s'mores with the fire pit. We are already looking at dates this fall to come back! Thanks again! -Allie
