Beautiful home, convenient location

Beautiful home, well appointed, amenities galore! Everything was very comfortable and well thought out by the hosts, a fantastic remodel of a historic home. Great spaces to be together but not cramped and so nice for a group of adults to each have their own space. Excellent contact and assistance from the host with availability of a shower chair and call late at night with answers about hot water (it worked great!). An easy walk to historic St Augustine sites and restaurants which added the charm of our time there.

A perfect vacation house!

This house is BEAUTIFUL! The owners think of EVERYTHING! We had such a wonderful time and the home was the heart of the experience for us. There is a gorgeous outdoor space that we enjoyed, as well as a front porch for morning coffee and evening chats, and laughter! There is plenty of space for a large group to gather and eat and have conversations. We highly recommend this property for others!!

This house is perfectly located to walk downtown or pick up both directions of the Old Town Trolley! There’s also coffee shops nearby to start your day. The house is nicely updated and comfortable. The rain shower was amazing! The kids loved the bunk room and toys. Our hosts were so friendly and nice. We appreciated the gifts! I will tell all my friends about this gem.

40th Celebration

By far, the most accommodating vacation home I’ve ever stayed at. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The hospitality from the host was 2nd to none. The communication was great and all of our wants were met. The house had so much character, and so many personal touches to make you feel as if you were at a 5 Star hotel. We will definitely be back!

One of a Kind House

We stayed at this house for my sister's 60th birthday weekend and were completely blown away by every aspect of it. Shaiffu & Alex are incredible hosts- I've never stayed at a house with so many extra touches- coffee pods, soaps, lotions, robes, extra blankets, beach towels, etc. The house is absolutely gorgeous and there is a perfect balance of the historical charm and updated amenities. The hosts have taken great care to preserve the history of the house. The rooms are all spacious, the bathrooms top-notch, sheets & beds were so cozy and comfortable, and the kitchen was so beautiful and functional. Can't beat the location- we walked to so many shops & restaurants from the house. I would return to St. Augustine JUST to stay at this house again. Thank you for being wonderful hosts!

Awesome Experience!

The owners of this property are determined to make your stay an excellent and enjoyable experience and will go out of their way to make sure everything you need is available. For example, our family has a member who is wheelchair bound and the owners made sure everything that he would need was available. He even bought and delivered equipment that was needed for him to stay more comfortable. The rooms are very comfortable, and the home could not be located in a better place if you are interested in exploring the historic district (just two blocks away!). I highly recommend this as your vacation choice!

Perfect Home in Perfect Location!

First of all, the hosts could not have been nicer or more communicative! Our original flight from Chicago got cancelled so we lost a night, but they offered us an extra night at the end of our trip, which was so appreciated even though we couldn't talk advantage of it. The home was a 5 minute walk from the Castillo de San Marcos and all of the fun of St. George St. Plus it is right next to Itty Bitty Donuts, which I highly recommend you try! The home was immaculate and plenty of space for 5 of us for a weekend visit. This was probably the best stocked VRBO I've ever been in, from the coffee pods, olive oil and even the Salted Caramel Whisky (which again, I highly recommend as it was delicious!) Beds were super comfy, bathrooms were all modern and updated, and the house had so much charm that it was interesting to learn of the history of the house from the current owners. Thank you for a fantastic stay in St. Augustine!

This is the BEST rental I’ve ever stayed at

This was a great experience. Don’t hesitate to book. I’ve been telling everyone I know in Florida about this place, even my friends in Ny. Perfect spot to check out St Augustine for a couple of days. Don’t forget the Marian shrine up the street. The trolley stop is right out your door. The little donut place next door is great. The owner of this lovely home thought of everything. The only thing you need to bring is your toothbrush and clothes. There are multiple supplies and backups. The coffee maker(s) are stocked w a variety of k cups. The beds are comfy. But the best part is just the overall feel of the space. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, no corner is left untouched. I highly recommend this spot for a family with kids plus an additional couple or two. Owners have great communication. Thanks so much for letting us stay at your house!

What brings you to vacation in St. Augustine?
For us it is because of our mother’s side of the family and all the history that comes with it!. Our grandma was an integral part of the historic Florida School for Deaf and Blind in St. Augustine in the 1940's! Loving St. Augustine runs thick in our blood! Our family has come a full circle as we’ve returned to settle in beautiful St Augustine. Now our two little girls are growing to love this community and unearthing their roots to discover precious stories! Every weekend we discover the abundance of experience this beautiful city offers and welcome you to do the same. We are so excited to welcome you to our home.
We tremendously enjoy traveling and exploring the world as a family.

We try and plan at least one big trip off of our bucket list every year with our little girls. We have come to appreciate how much the quality of your vacation experience depends on the quality of experience in the place you chose to stay. We have designed and organized our vacation homes with our main focus being relaxation, unwinding, comfort, joy, and convenience so families and friends can focus on making beautiful memories.

Why they chose this property

The St Augustine Villa sits on a wonderful location, with the Historic Old Mansion of Florida to its left and a 2-3 min walk to the Old City Gates. that lead to charming ST George Street! Walk to restaurants, trolley tours, museums, fort, the Plaza....the Villa is in the middle of it all!
The St Augustine Villa was built with a lot love by G S Beverly, between 1910 and 1914, for his beloved Clara. The St Augustine Villa is recorded in the National Register of Historic Places. Mr. Beverly was the town plumber and quite an inspiration as he lost an arm in his 20s but built this home and a successful plumbing business with the other! There are other precious nuggets of his story and influence on this town, shared on the walls of this home. Alex and Shaiffu renovated this beautiful craftsman home and want to share its warmth with their guests.
