About this property

Summer in Vilano Beach, St. Augustine

Welcome to “The Best of Both Worlds”. This 3 bedroom/2 bathroom house sleeps 10 and gives you spectacular water views from every room.

Enter this beautiful home by walking up stairs and looking right out our large dining room window straight to the ocean. The dining table seats 8 guests . Walk out the front door and onto an outdoor deck with amazing beach views. Sunrise on this deck with coffee is a must. Turn around and see the gorgeous family room with a triple sliding glass door that looks directly out to the fabulous marsh and inter-coastal waterway. There is a full sized sofa that converts to a queen sofa sleeper, as well as a loveseat to enjoy the views of sunrise over the ocean in the morning, and sunset over the inter-coastal waters in the evening. A large 55” flat screen TV sits above the fireplace and has Youtube streaming of all of your favorite channels. There is a pub table for playing games, or to use for 4 additional diners.

Step out the sliding glass door and onto a large beautiful screened in porch with another full sofa and 2 very comfortable oversized chairs. You will spend your every afternoon, enjoying this spectacular space and sunset views!

Adjacent the dining room is a kitchen that allows watching the ocean while cooking from the kitchen window. Fully equipped kitchen with electric 4 burner stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, and full sized refrigerator/freezer. Coffee Maker, blender, toaster, we’ve got you covered.

Turn right and head toward the Master Suite. This airy room has an oversized king bed, a 55” inch flatscreen TV, and an en-suite master bath connected by a large walk-in closet. The triple window gives you the same incredible marsh views as the screened in porch. The master bathroom has his and hers sinks, a walk-in tiled shower, as well as a jetted tub. Just lift the blinds over the tub and the ocean view awaits you yet again. This bath can also be accessed from the hallway.

On the other end of the house is 2 more bedrooms. A queen bedroom that has a sliding glass door that opens to its own private balcony and marsh view. There is also a side window view to the ocean. The 3rd bedroom has twin bunks, as well as a full sized Murphy bed that can be lowered to allow 4 guests to sleep in this room. Both windows yet again give you that awesome ocean view. The 2nd bath is located off the hallway in between the 2 bedrooms and has a large vanity and walk-in shower.

Below the house is a 2 car garage as well as a laundry area with a full sized washer and dryer and a dump sink.
The house is steps away from the beach and a public beach access..

We are 4 miles from historic downtown St. Augustine with award winning restaurants and shops. Did you know Southern Living listed St. Augustine as the top restaurant town in the southeast! We also have several fabulous restaurants right here on Vilano beach, as well as a Publix.

We hope you will enjoy our home as much as we do and delight in these breathtaking views!

Great views and easy access

My family stayed at this location for a week. The setup is great and the views are wonderful. Loved having the fire pit to cook smores. The beach access is close, but due to the higher speeds of vehicles and no sidewalk, we chose to drive a minute down the road to public parking.

Lovely Setting for Escape from New England Cold!

What a great place to stay for a two week escape from the cold RI winter! You simply can not beat the gorgeous views of ocean and marsh! We loved the big screened porch on the marsh side for coffee and cocktails. Or for an afternoon nap! The bird life in the marsh is wonderful. So many species. The location of the home is perfect for fun trips into St Augustine and then come home to the more laid back Vilano Beach. House is well equipped and the artwork is lovely. We would stay again!

Lovely beach home

We enjoyed our stay in Vilano. We come 2-3 times a year and this was definitely one of the better rentals that we have stayed in. Loved the coastal and marsh views. So peaceful and private with plenty of room for everyone. Thank you Carla for sharing your lovely home with us. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful house

This is a great property to rent! Carla was extremely easy to communicate with and accommodating. The house is clean, up to date, and one of the most well stocked rentals with everything you could need! We enjoyed walking to the beach and a great playground nearby as well as sitting on the back porch and watching the birds in the marsh. We highly recommend staying here and would rent here again.

Excellent beach house for a getaway

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!

Best of both worlds!!

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.

Beautiful Vacation

This vacation home was just what the doctor ordered. A view of the beach from the front, and a view of the river/marshes from the back. Sunrise and sunset were my favorite times of day, as we could see both! We were so comfortable here that we never left to venture out to St. Augustine. Maybe next time, as we'll definitely be back.

Beautiful Views

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.

My family and I went to this home for family vacations. The location is great and the communication with Carla (the owner) was really good. She's taking care of everything you need and answering every single question immediately. I will come back. The beach is only a few steps. I would recommend this house 100%.

Nice Quick Getaway for TPC

The home is located nicely with close beach access, St. Augustine, and Ponte Vedra. We took advantage of attending The Players and traffic coming from the south on A1A was quick. Took advantage of restaurants in St Augustine and of course walked the 5 minutes to hang out at the beach. The home is well kept and suited out 2 person needs well. Communication was great and everything was as represented on the listing. We will definitely consider returning.
