About this property

“Steeped in History” Exquisite 1919 Craftsman

Revel in the comfort and tranquility of this luxurious coquina stone Craftsman that has been completely and beautifully renovated with all modern amenities.

Take a step back in time as you cross the threshold of Casa Coquina. The nine and a half foot ceilings make for a spacious and inviting grand entry. Wonderful large windows allow an abundance of natural light throughout. Architectural details and oak flooring are original to the home.

The charming living room with a wall mounted Samsung Smart TV, opens to a spacious dining area. To satisfy culinary desires, delight in the fully equipped chef's kitchen featuring a large center island and all hi-end appliances.

All three bedrooms have king size beds, fine linens, and wall mounted Samsung Smart TVs. Towels, soaps, and hairdryers are supplied in all bathrooms. A front load washer and dryer are conveniently located on the first level. All bedrooms have room darkening shades, bedside lamps with USB ports and ceiling fans. There is high speed internet and Wi-Fi throughout the property. Among the many modern amenities this home offers, are dual master suites.

An expansive and very private upper-level master suite has an adjoining luxury dressing room and ensuite bathroom with a jetted tub shower combo. The second master suite located on the main level includes an ensuite bathroom with a rain showerhead. Bedroom three on the main level is a guest bedroom that utilizes the adjacent full bathroom. Upon request the two XL twin beds in the guest bedroom can convert to a king bed.

The large front porch is the perfect spot to start the day with a cup of coffee or to relax with a cold beverage after a day of touring. In the afternoon South Street is the route frequently taken by horse drawn carriages. Nothing evokes the feeling of tranquility more than the sound of the carriages and horse hooves clopping down the street.

Equipped with a wet bar, the glass enclosed back porch overlooks a landscaped backyard, a three-hole putting green and Solo smokeless fire pit. For the grill master, there is large gas grill and dining table for six.

Casa Coquina is located on a shady street along the Freedom Trail in the eclectic and historic neighborhood of Lincolnville, which is within the boundaries of Saint Augustine's Historic District. Immerse yourself in the culture and heritage of the Nation's Oldest City. Downtown attractions and restaurants are just a short walk.

Absolute delight

Five family members from Maine and Alaska gathered in this beautiful house for two weeks of togetherness and exploration. Everything about this rental was far more than we had anticipated, with all details of the highest caliber. We loved the old-Florida neighborhood and walked everywhere, even into the Old City. Perfect!

Great house

This house was amazing. Immaculately clean and well stocked. It also had great personality. We used the front porch, backyard, the little putting green and fire pit. The backyard was private and comfortable - a great way to sit and relax at the end of the day. Until we took a tour in St. Augustine we didn't realize how walkable the property is to many places in St. Augustine. Despite a few minor hiccups the owner and property manager were pleasant and responsive. We appreciated their support. This property is a gem

We enjoyed our stay in Casa Coquina. The weather was unusual - very cold - but the house was cozy. The kitchen very well appointed and the beds comfortable. We enjoyed our walk to “night of lights” also.

Adorable home a mile from historic downtown

We visited St. Augustine during Night of Lights. This home was the perfect spot for us. It was very clean, well stocked and well maintained. Each of the three bedrooms had their own bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend.

Excellent stay again

This was our second stay at this house and as before, our experience was excellent! Both of our trips have involved a concert at St Augustine Amphitheater; the drive is easy and short from this location. Checkin and out was seamless. Communication worked well. Perfect setup for 3 couples, two bedrooms with en-suite bathroom and one bathroom in hallway. Very nicely decorated, comfortable beds, kitchen and bathrooms supplied with everything we needed. Cannot speak to ease of walking to downtown area because we spent our free time at the house. Would definitely recommend this property and we would stay here again.

St. Augustine Gem

We loved our stay in this St. Augustine gem. The property was beautifully furnished and well-appointed. We appreciated that it had 3 comfortable king size beds and each bathroom was modern and updated with a nod to the historic charm of the home. The location is great, in historic Lincolnville and a quick 15 minute walk to downtown. The property owner and host shared local restaurant tips and were very responsive. We highly recommend this property.

Location

The home was very clean and location was close to everything we wanted. We went in July due to scheduling issues with family. Our recommendation is to visit in cooler months to enjoy the fabulous front porch. Back yard is perfect and down hill putts break to the right more than it looks. Absolutely loved this 1930’s home with updated amenities.

Great home in St Augustine

The home was great, clean, updated and a great location. Stayed for a few days over the July 4th holiday. Home was about a mile walk to the bridge to watch the fireworks, so we didn't have to deal with parking issues. The home is in a great neighborhood that was nice for golf cart rides and walks. Close to all of the old town shopping and dining. Would stay there again.

Amazing House

We were a party of 6 adults (3 couples). This house was perfect for us. 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms was just the right combination. The kitchen had all the necessities. It was neat and organized. Checking in and out was a breeze. The early risers went out to the backyard to enjoy coffee and conversation and not disturb the late sleepers. It was just perfect for our little group. Highly recommend this house and the rental agency!!

Everything and More!

6 adult family members came to surprise our musician son at his venue. The location of this place was perfect! All 6 had beautiful bedrooms with amazing bathrooms. Everything was sparkly clean. The house is beautifully decorated and the neighborhood is steeped in history. It is literally around the corner from historic St Augustine. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return in the future!

Just perfect!

This house was wonderful for 3 senior couples. We spent a lot of our time on the front porch or in the backyard-grilling and using the putting green. The host made arrangements for us to check in earlier which was greatly appreciated. We loved walking around the neighborhood in the evenings. One of the best homes we’ve stayed in!!

Amazing weekend

Weekend visit to St Augustine. We had 3 couples, having 3 king beds and 3 bathrooms was perfect, ample space for all. The house was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully renovated. Amazing kitchen and backyard space! We enjoyed playing games and cooking breakfast, it was ~0.8 mile walk to downtown but one of us was on crutches, a quick Uber or golf cart ride to dinner was just as easy. Would definitely stay again!

The perfect house

This is the perfect rental. :) Our family (my husband and myself, our 2 adult children plus 1 girlfriend, and my elderly mother) travelled to St. Augustine for a celebratory trip for mom's 90th birthday. After a day of travel what we arrived to find was a spotlessly clean, beautiful, craftsman-style home, lovingly restored, in a quiet neighborhood very near town. We spent 4 very comfortable nights in the house and especially loved the yard with the firepit and putting green. The owners/managers really went out of their way to make certain we had a good stay, even purchasing 2 beach chairs and umbrellas so mom and my son's gf (with a broken foot) could enjoy their day with us on the beach. We also found, on arrival, 2 boxes of candy and a birthday card thoughtfully left for mom. Last, there was no nickel and diming us. There was more than enough toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwashing pods, etc. left for us to use throughout our stay. We really had a wonderful birthday trip and much of it was due to this perfect house. (Mom was raving about it all weekend). Thank you to the owners and managers for everything. :)
