Amazing host, beautiful view, clean condo. Love the pools & beach access. Perfect for a relaxing getaway!
10.0 / 10.0
We have never felt so relaxed on a vacation as we did at the Summerhouse Condos. The condo was exactly as stated on the website, the owner is beyond helpful and the location of the condo is steps away from the pool and ocean. A great week away! We didn't want to leave.
Looking forward to our return visit!! =)

We had a great time. Some minor problems: the exterior door to the parking lot needs repair; some light bulbs need to be replaced; more towel rods would be helpful in the master bath.

Enjoyed our stay in this great townhouse. We had a little view of the ocean from the balcony which had great furniture to just seat and enjoy the ocean breeze. Loved having the pickleball courts right out front very convenient for a morning game. There are lots of steps involved but did not affect our stay just be sure to take into consideration for those in your party if renting

Few hand towels and washcloths stained. Bathroom rugs were not nonskid.Top bracket for handrail on staircase was loose from wall. Couch cover was stained. Owner did come over on first night to remove a dead battery in smoke detector to stop the steady chirping. Great location to beach.

Everything was clean and comfortable and our family had a great time. We were bummed that the pools were under maintenance, but still enjoyed the beach access and loved how close fort Matanzas was!

This condo had everything we needed. Location was great. Will definitely stay again.

We had a great time in August. We loved the walking distance to the wonderful beach that was never crowded. The stairs did not bother our toddlers. Yes, as other reviewers mentioned, the condo was not within any walkable distance to anything other than the beach and pool, but it was August and it was not the time for strolls anyway. Do your research prior to coming and there will be no problem at all on how to entertain yourself.
I wish the renters took better care of the offered cookware – all of it had been scratched with metal utensils. It would be also nice to have cotton bedding instead of microfiber or cotton blend. After we figured out the lock, we didn’t have any problems or questions for the owners, everything worked great.
I am not giving 5 stars because my little one developed a cough when he was in the bedroom that intensified towards the week's end and disappeared a few days after we left.

Our 4 day stay was terrific. Communications with Katrina were very pleasant and efficient. The condo was so cute with its decorative beach themed touches. The place was immaculately clean and the kitchen was well-stocked with dishware and such. Beds comfortable and showers modern. Great to have the beach chairs for our quick, easy access to the pristine beach. The sea water recirculated pool was wonderful. All in all a great place to stay, relax and have fun!! Will definitely stay again.

My husband and I absolutely loved staying in this home. The owners have put together this beach condo with care and meticulous attention to detail. Super clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We will definitely be back!

We had a restful experience in this clean and beachy condo. We loved sitting on the deck when we were there. It wasn’t a bad drive into St Augustine where we spent time each day but was far enough away from the busy city! We would definitely stay again if we return to the area!

Beach Access; heated salt water pools; quiet & safe surroundings…. Easy access to St. Augustine. Grocery & restaurants close by. Clean, efficient, and modern ‘cottage theme’ condo. Washer & dryer, soft close cabinets, fully equipped kitchen, were all very convenient. Note: 2nd floor with steep stairs. Will Definitely return IF available!!!!!’

We came here for an extended fall break weekend. We loved the location and made good use of the pool and the beach. There were a lot of steps, so it might not be the best location for young children, but our girls (8 and 9) had no issues. We loved the area, and the owner made very good recommendations for restaurants. we would stay again.

The condo was exactly what we were expecting. Even with the impending hurricane the stay we had was wonderful and communication with the owners was above and beyond. We would definitely stay again!

Summerhouse Condo
Owners were so pleasant and helpful from beginning to end. The condo was beautiful ( remodeled since the listing pictures were taken) and was spotless. We took the short walk to the beach each day and also enjoyed the pool! We had a wonderful week!

Nice nice condo
Condo was very clean and nicely decorated. Any concerns we had were easily discussed with Katrina, she was a wonderful host. The only reason we did not give it 5 stars is because of issues that may not be important to other guests but as we are probably older than most we found the many outside stairs an obstacle and the distance from the ocean disappointing, the view is minimal so if you're there, as we were, to enjoy the sight and sounds of the ocean you may be disappointed. We also found the futons in the living room a little uncomfortable, but again others may not feel the same. Overall we enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo.

Home Away From Home
My husband and I and our three kids just returned to Vermont from a five day stay at the Gaines condo on Crescent Beach. This was one of the most amazing vacations. The condo is immaculate and very well decorated. The owners have made sure that everything that you could need is there. If I could give more than five stars for the communication from Katrina, I would. She checked in several times and clearly wanted us to have a great experience. Everyone at the condo complex was so welcoming and friendly to our family and we honestly didn’t want to leave. The grounds crew does an amazing job as well. This was a wonderful rental and I would highly encourage you to give them a try. I think it’s important to note that it is a private beach and you never have to worry about getting a spot. With 4 pools (heated), a playground, grills, picnic tables, tennis courts, and more…it is paradise! Close to lots but yet far enough to ensure relaxation. We will return!

Summerhouse is an awesome complex!
We loved being central to the beach and matanzas River the tennis courts and pools were awesome. So many nice people and biking excursions were a highlight. Our owners were very considerate to our needs. Look forward to another visit next year💕

Nice place, but....
Everything was nice but just know there are essentially two flights of steps to get to the unit and then once inside a flight to get to the bedrooms (I did know that for the most part going in).
The furniture was not real comfy for us but to each their own.
One suggestion might be to have a booklet with some pages in it to describe some things about the unit, recommend where to eat and shop nearby, because there isn't much "nearby".
8.0 / 10.0
Great stay
We are usually beachfront people. The complex is on the beach, but this unit is in the back and not directly on the beach. Don't let this deter you, the beach is only a short walk through the parking lot. Own was very friendly and had great communication. Would staty here again.
