Adorable & welcoming beach home! We loved it!! Carla was awesome & responsive and the beautiful home was nicely stocked & relaxing. Amazing beach & intracoastal views from the back porch & front balcony. We would love to go back again soon! Thank you!

We had an amazing time staying in this home with friends that came out from CA to meet us in beautiful St. Augustine. This house was the perfect fit for our 4 adults and two kids (ages 15 and 10) . It had plenty of room, not a detail forgotten, and very well appointed to have everything we might need to enjoy our trip. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you might need to cook and even little details like ziploc bags, foil, and cleaning supplies. The beds were all comfy, nice towels in both bathrooms, and super clean. The beach is right across the street and the supplies were on point with everything we could have needed at the beach and so much more. There are plenty of beach chairs, towels, wagons, and every fun game you can think of! We took advantage of the fire pit and had S'mores the night before we left. It was just a wonderful time and such a place to enjoy our loved ones. Carla was wonderful to work with, very attentive, and super simple check in. She also offered us early check-in and late check-out due to her cleaners schedule working out to allow that. Wonderful way to accommodate guests. Thank you again for the use of your lovely home. It was a great time for all of us! We hope to be back!

We went to Vilano beach and luckily found this house again. We stayed before and had an amazing time. Never diss appointed

The location is perfect for a leisure beach day or for going into the historic district to spend the day. We did both and couldn’t have been in a better location! We enjoyed beach views each morning and quiet, cozy evenings inside or in the lovely sunroom. The home was the most stocked we have stayed in with cookware, beach chairs and gear, and indoor and outdoor games, etc.

This guest house was very clean, comfortable, and cozy. The owner was prompt in communicating and has thought of the things that will help guests enjoy their stay, such as providing coffee and spices and lots of dishes/cookware. The beds were very comfortable, and extra pillows and blankets were available if needed. What sets this rental apart from others is all the beach gear available to borrow, including towels, nice chairs (with pouches for your stuff), umbrellas, sand toys, balls, and a wagon (plus cornhole for the back deck). And perhaps the highlight of staying at this house was having several outdoor spaces to relax, so you can choose where to spend your time based on where the sun is. The walk to access beach is quick, but crossing the street can take patience, since cars do not stop for pedestrians and you have to wait for a gap in traffic. However, the beach is very peaceful at this location. In March there were only a few other people on a warm sunny day, while areas farther down in both directions were more crowded. There are several restaurants close by, and it's not far from the historic area in St. Augustine, making this location a good choice for a beach vacation.

We spent our time visiting Florida Friends and entertaining visitors with plenty of beach time and restaurant visits. The perfect location for both!

We loved our time at the beach house! The house was so cute, we had everything we needed in the house, everything was clean and Carla communicated everything well.

The house was beautiful! The views were amazing! We had a great time! Everything we needed was there!! I would go back again!!

The view of the marsh is so beautiful, and it is so close to the beach!!

We fully enjoyed our stay here. The house had everything needed in case you can’t make it to the grocery in time. The kitchen was also stocked with zip lock bags , foil, etc, which is nice!!! Instead of having to go spend money on miscellaneous items you will only use for a few days. The best thing…. We had an amazing fire works show from the back guest room patio without having to leave. Fully enjoyed the stay!

House was perfect for our family trip. Loved the location and view of the marsh from the screen porch! Easy access to the beach and a short 10 min drive to St. Augustine. Carla was a fantastic host. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect location. Great hosts. Everything was exceptional to the cleanliness of the house to the many available beach chairs and supplies.

Very nice home in a nice location. We were able to walk down to the beach in less than 2 minutes and took less than 10 to get to historic St. Augustine. Wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you, Carla!

The property had amazing views and we loved watching the sunset on the screened in porch. The home was well stocked including just about anything you'd want for the beach. Only issue is crossing the street to get to the beach as it can be a little dangerous especially with young children.

This house is situated right across from a very uncrowded, private and majestic beach. It is also so close to Vilano, Downtown St. Augustine, and several great restaurants. The views are incredible from both the ocean facing deck for amazing sunrises, and the screened in marsh facing deck that has a panoramic view of the marsh and the river, complete with sailboats and spectacular sunsets. Carla and Tim go out of their way to make you feel welcome in their home providing decorative touches, jars of candy, and plenty of indoor and outdoor games, including the highly addictive "Tiki Toss" challenge! Once you're here, you will immediately feel relaxed and at ease, although your time will pass by far too quickly and before you know it you'll be counting the days until you can return to this ideal location!

This home is perfect for a getaway to the beach and St. Augustine. It was just far enough out of town to be a respite, while still being close enough to easily sample the attractions if you wanted. The home was lovely and comfortable with incredible views. It had everything we needed and then some. The beach is just across the street and is quiet and beautiful. Highly recommend staying here! Thanks for an amazing weekend!

We loved our week in this home. Extremely clean and absolutely beautiful. Very accommodating. The home has breathtaking views from every window in the house and only a short distance from a beautiful beach. Would definitely recommend it to anyone intending to visit the area.

We had a wonderful time at Carla and Jim's place. House was clean and well stocked with all we needed to have a great vacation. Very easy to communicate with and very helpful. We had 2 families and everyone had plenty of room to sleep and play. Only 5 min walk to beach and all beach equipment is provided for your use. Willl definitely stay again.

The location of this house was perfect! It was truly the best of both worlds with the beach out front and the marsh in the back. The amenities were wonderful and all the essentials for the beach (chairs, 2 umbrellas, and cart) were provided. We had an amazing few days with our family playing on the beach (not crowded at all) and lounging in the many outdoor areas (screened in porch, balconies, and the ground level patio). The views were spectacular and the little ring game on the side patio gave us so much enjoyment. We made so many great memories during this trip! We hope to return to your home in Vilano Beach. Thanks for being great hosts!

We had a great time. The location is very convenient to go to the ocean and St. Augustine. The views are extraordinary from both sides of the house. The owners are very gracious and the home is well laid out for meals and family time. We especially enjoyed the games provided including the hook and washer game which is very addicting. We will definitely be visiting again!

We visited the property on Father’s Day weekend and it was the perfect weekend getaway with friends. The property had all the essentials you need for a fun day at the beach-the wagon was especially helpful in getting our small children to the beach. The views over looking the marsh were great in the evening as well. Overall we had a great time!

Our family enjoyed our stay in this pretty house! The marsh behind the house was beautiful and often had egrets and herons. We appreciated how easy it was to come and go, whether heading to the beach, Publix, or for ice cream. Carla and Tim were very thoughtful when choosing amenities for the house from the cookware to the games like Cornhole. We hope we have a chance to stay here again sometime.

My mom, my two sisters and my husband and I stayed at this property for five nights. It was beautiful and clean and there was plenty of space for us to all be in the same room, but when we needed some quiet time, there was space for us to be apart as well. Carla was very attentive and helpful and always quick to answer our questions. We also loved being close to the beach and all of the beach things that were there, were so great to have! Thank you for a great place to stay!

Was a wonderful house and location to explore the St. Augustine area! Loved the house and the extra special items. Was happy to find beach towels, beach chairs and beach wagon for our use!

This property is beautifully furnished and tastefully decorated. Yet it is also secluded and kid friendly. Beach, playgrounds, and the GMA wildlife management area are close by for times when sightseeing is not on the agenda. The kitchen was supplied with all the tools and utensils to cook for our large family. The porches, deck, and cabana allowed for safe play areas for the little ones...and the tub & hose was perfect for hosing off sandy beach treasures and sandy little kids. Gathering on the cabana for sunset, quiet time stories added to our joyous experience and memories.

It was everything as described! Gorgeous views in all directions and a great place to just chill for the evening or head to one of the many delicious restaurants!

Excellent rental property. Carla was very responsive to any questions we had. The rental was very clean and had just about anything you could want. We had a wonderful view of the ocean and the marsh. Pretty sunrises and sunsets. The beach was a short walk from the house and was easy to access. We enjoyed our daily walks on the beach. St. Augustine is a short ride away with many excellent restaurants. We would definitely recommend this rental property.

Excellent property located across from the beach. Close to downtown historic area and grocery store. Carla was fantastic and made sure we had everything we needed. Back porch a great place to watch the sunset. I would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay at this wonderful house by the beach. It’s an easy walk to the beach, the inside of the house is very comfortable, and the views of the sunset over the marsh are fantastic. Carla is an excellent host, she’s very responsive! We were a family of four plus a grandparent and the house worked very well for us. Loved staying at this house!

This was an amazing property that we had the good fortune to find and rent this past weekend. We had rented another property for my daughter and her bridesmaids to stay the night before her wedding and to do hair and makeup and mimosas the morning of. Since the ceremony and reception end earlier than the bride and groom are ready to call it a night- they also wanted a place that could accommodate their friends for an after party. My other booking was canceled by the owner (due to previous guests quarantining and refusing to leave!)- 2 days before check in. After a mild panic attack, this property came up as an alternative in the cancellation email we received from VRBO. I contacted Carla and she was AMAZING!! She sent her cleaning crew immediately to prepare for our arrival and communicated with me throughout the process. The house and location are perfect. Very clean, very charming, and simply beautiful. I am definitely hoping we will get a chance to return for a more relaxing visit as I would rent this house again next chance I get! The next visit would be way less demanding on the house and owners too! Thank you so much for everything.

Carla was so accommodating to us. We stayed for a long weekend with my family of 4 (kids 10 and 13) and my wife's parents who were celebrating their 50th anniversary. It was perfect for our group of 6, and everything we asked for Carla was quick to accommodate. The home is just as it appears in the pictures, actually even closer to the beach then it looks. Thank you for sharing it with us!!!
