About this property

Heated Pool. Private Beach Path. Vilano Beach House Closest to Historic St. Aug.

1700sq | Master Bedroom: Queen Bed, Pullout Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Loft: Twin Daybed with Twin Trundle

This newly renovated beach-side cottage is nestled within one of Vilano Beach's original seaside neighborhoods. Sand paths meander from the cottage towards the dune-lined beach walk for easy access to the ocean. (You do not have to cross A1A or drive to get to the beach )

Outside the home, you’re sure to feel the cool saltwater breeze while lounging by your private pool! Enjoy refreshing dips in the morning before lounging on the poolside deck. During the day, head to the beach or chill at home and challenge your friends at the regulation-size horseshoe pit and other outdoor games.

Inside this 2-story home, originally constructed in 1943, you’ll find new grey-washed laminate hardwood flooring. Bright colors and tasteful accents of nautical decor boost your mood and help relax the mind. A large L-shaped couch awaits for you to unwind in front of the flat-screen Smart TV with family and friends.

Cook up a new seafood recipe or entertain with ease in the fully equipped kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, quartz counter tops, and a chic breakfast bar with table. Bring the feast outside to the large viewing deck to share while enjoying the beautifully landscaped gardens sprinkled with swaying palm trees.

The downstairs master bedroom offers a queen bed and a pullout bed that accommodates up to 2 travelers. Upstairs, you’ll find the second and third bedrooms - each with queen beds and their own flat-screen LED Smart TV. Each bedroom has access to an outdoor deck with seating and the bedrooms now have white-noise makers to increase sleeping comfort.

Kids can have their own unique space in the spacious loft that provides a twin bed with twin trundle and small TV with DVD player.

Everyone will be able to stick to his or her morning routine in one of the 2 elegantly designed bathrooms that both boast a double vanity.

Inquire with host for special pricing for longer term bookings.

Publix grocery store and several restaurants within walking distance. Vilano Beach Pier 0.5 Miles. Nature walk across the street. When staying on Vilano beach this beach house has the shortest drive time to get to historic St. Augustine.

We heat the pool October - April. As long as the temperature stays above 63 degrees we can keep the pool at 85 degrees. If the temperature drops below 63 degrees the pool temperature will drop proportionately.

There are two security cameras on the property. One is on the south-west corner of the property outside facing the driveway. The other is monitoring the garage. The garage is locked and off limits to guests.

Great stay at the coast
Loved our stay. The pool area was incredible and such a convenient location with the beach just a short walk away(my 2 year old did it twice a day no issues!) plus having the Publix across the street is a big help. The drive to downtown st Augustine was less than 10 minutes and could walk to the fishing pier with a view of downtown. Would 10/10 stay again.

Loved it!
This property was everything we wanted & more! It is in the perfect location. My group did not have a car, so the Publix and other restaurants across the street were amazing! The Uber into town was only 10-15 minutes, too. Also, the beach was not crowded and it was so clean! The host is also very responsive and friendly. Everyone in my group could not stop raving about the house. Thanks again, John!

Enjoy!
My family and I enjoyed our stay! The house with a pool in the back yard and a 5 minute walk to the beach was great. The house is just like the pictures and contact with the owner was easy. The pull out bed in the downstairs bedroom needs to be replaced immediately! It CAN NOT be used!!! You will fall through. Don’t count that in your sleep count. The only thing I did NOT like….we had to take the garbage cans to the road for pick up and bring them back to the house.

10 day gvacation!
Property was exactly what it said it would be. Owner was very responsive to any questions that occured. We had plenty of room and dis not feel like we were on top of each other. We had so much fun. All the extras in shed were a great bonus we had chairs for the beach and things to do to entertain us. We played horeshoes, had a fire, and just a great vacation. I would rebook this again for another vacation. 10 oit of 10!r

Wonderful surprise
I was a little worried at first because of the proximity to the main road, but it was never an issue. Walk to the beach was short and pool was fabulous. We even walked to the Publix for necessities. There is a nature walk across the street that goes under the bridge. We enjoyed looking for crabs there. Great location. Kids really loved the loft. I would love to go back again.

Great location with beautiful pool
Went with 4 adults and 2 kids - the pool was beautiful surrounded by lovely landscaping, perfect temp for swimming. Beach was a short walk away and not a crowded section due to houses all around - hotels a few blocks away. Short (less than 10 min) drive to gorgeous downtown area. Host very nice and responsive - very organized and house and property very well cared for. Would definitely go here again!

Clean home, great pool for kids.
We enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Vilano beach was beautiful, sparsely populated, and perfect for long walks. It was a bit chilly while we were visiting so the children were very happy that the pool was heated and they spent a lot of their time swimming. I didn’t realize the home was located at such a busy intersection when I booked, but the noise from traffic didn’t end up interfering with our sleep and the beds were nice and comfortable. On the plus side of the location, it was right across the street from a grocery store and not too far of a walk to get to the beach. I would recommend!

Amazing Home!
My family & I stayed for the weekend to celebrate my husband’s Birthday… we were all impressed with how beautiful this home is. Each room is tastefully decorated, each bathroom stocked with fresh, clean towels. The kitchen has a view of the ocean and it is stocked with spices, pots & pans, utensils, glasses, plates, bowls just about everything you need to make a meal! The beach access is a short walk from the house. The pool is great… heated just right! Thank you for such a lovely home to celebrate a very special occasion. We highly recommend booking this home!

Quick Stop
This was a quick stop for us as part of a roadtrip. Had never visited St. Augustine so it was an opportunity to check it out and we were very pleased! House and host are outstanding. This place has everything, and if you do manage to find yourself in need, there’s a nice Publix grocery store within walking distance. Nice beaches all around, but the heated pool oasis was the star of the show as we visited in December and gale force winds made the ocean a no-go regardless of temps. Despite the uncooperative weather it was a great time in an awesome place. Thanks to the host for sharing this property, it really made our first visit to St. Augustine a memorable one.

Best Stay in St Augustine Area!
So fortunate to have found such a wonderful rental. The house was both comfortable and convenient! Under a 2 minute walk to the beach. Short walk to Vilano town center. The location was right at the foot of Vilano Bridge which made driving to historic district and Route 1 a snap. Pool was relaxing. Beach stuff (wagon, chairs, umbrellas, pails & toys were all an added bonus. The house was well stocked with both bath & beach towels, beds were extremely comfortable, and I am very picky when it comes to sleeping. The owner was a true delight to work with! Thank you John for a perfect stay.

Family beach stay
Stayed with my son's family and brother's family to visit our family and the beach in St. Augustine/Vilano beach. The house was perfect. Outdoor area gorgeous, we all enjoyed the pool and loved the extra protective measures of gates surrounding pool since we had little ones there. So close to the beach area, just a 2 min walk so many of us were there often. Also, being able to walk across street to the Publix was so convenient. It took only minutes to get to historic St. Augustine. Only downside with property is griddle and grill too small to cook for our larger group but close to so many wonderful restaurants like the Reef and Aunt Kate's. Would definitely stay again
