About this property

Riverfront Paradise, Private Dock - Up to 30' Boat, Heated Pool, 1 mile to Beach, Separate Cottage!

We help make the most of your vacation by providing Free Admission to some of the area's top attractions each and every day! Create exciting memories, have more fun, and truly experience your destination!


If you are looking for a relaxing little bit of paradise where you can enjoy boating, surfing, and swimming, you have found the perfect vacation spot! ParadiSea is newly furnished as the perfect hub from which to rest and enjoy spending family-time, while also taking in the sights and smells of the ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway, and nearby historic attractions in the Old City of St. Augustine. Spend lazy days around the private pool while watching the wildlife or boats on the river. Bring your own boat and dock it right at the home and enjoy daily outings fishing, swimming at the nearby Matanzas Inlet, or cruising down to the Old City. Spend the afternoon at the beach, just one mile to a neighborhood private access point, or a one mile ride to drive on access. Spend fun family-time at the house playing ping-pong, corn hole, having a cookout, and enjoying movie-time curled up on the large sectional in the family room.

ParadiSea has four bedrooms and two bathrooms in the main house, but also features cottage, separated from the main home by a courtyard, and outfitted with a queen bed and bathroom. The main house has a split plan, with the River View Master on one end of the home, two other bedrooms and a bathroom on the other end of the home, and a bunk room (Twin XL over Queen w/separate Twin over Twin bunk bed) separated from the other sleeping spaces, and convenient for four kids or 2-3 adults.

Nearby Endless Summer Surf Station surfing school offers surfing lessons, and board and electric bike rentals, great for riding along the beach and enjoying the sites! The area is also a fisherman's paradise and offers plenty of variety between surf fishing and river fishing. Frank Butler Park is adjacent to the neighborhood and has a boat ramp, floating dock, picnic tables and restrooms. Kayak, canoe, and fishing gear rentals, along with another river dock are available at nearby Genung's Fish Camp. Pizza, great seafood, Italian, and southern fare are all located within a mile of the condo. Grocery stores are located within a 10 minute drive.

**NOTE: The dock is in a tidal area, during low tide there is very shallow or no water under the dock

Great home away from home

Loved our stay! We were close to the beautiful and not overcrowded Butler Beach. Enjoyed the day in Historic St. Augustine. The pool and the house were a great! We loved the river it was on. We saw dolphins daily and the boys caught fish and crabs. *Things to know- they're were only 8 beach towels. Bring your own blankets, if you get that "after sun" chill. Needed to buy some kitchen utensils but no biggie!

Nice property. Enjoyed pool and especially fishing.

Loved the house. Had extra family come in to stay in the cottage as well. The location was great for us as it was close to nice restaurants but also offered enough to do atthehouse it kept us occupied. Pool and ping pong table for the kids then fishing from the dock or Kayak us. Only tough part is when the tide comes in it’sreally shallow around the dock to where you cannot dock a boat but fishing is better if you rent kayaks and fish around the sheep beds and islands. Caught big red fish and jacks(trash fish but still fun to fight ) We will definitely stay here again.

Communication was excellent and property was exactly as pictured. Even with the cooler nights the pool was still warm to swim in during the day. The view was calming and amazing even saw some dolphins.

5 stars across the board

We loved the location, very peaceful setting, extremely close to beach, restaurants and local attractions. The home was exceptionally clean and as we stayed for a few weeks we appreciated that the kitchen was stocked with plenty of cooking utensils that are often overlooked, and plenty of towels. I highly recommend the 3 mile drive down A1a for sunrise at the beautiful sparsely populated beach across from entrance for Fort Matanzas, and sunsets poolside. I would not hesitate to rent again.

Surprise Birthday Celebration

This property was excellent for the 9 adults that stayed there. There was plenty of room and the extra cottage was a bonus for some extra privacy for one of the couples. The home was very clean, kitchen was well stocked and had ample storage space. We fished off the dock and the sunsets over the river were gorgeous. Plenty of parking for multiple vehicles and very close to St Augustine, Crescent Beach and Marineland. We give it five stars and will definitley try to stay here the next time we are in the area.

Great location

Perfectly located. Really quiet neighborhood and great views. Rooms nicely done and there is lots of space, great matresses and very comfortable. Kitchen is small if you are a group ( wich is normal with a 4 bedroom house). We’ve seen daulphins everyday and had beautiful sunsets. The house is 15 min max from all the activities you could dream of.

We enjoyed our stay here. We loved being able to bring our dog, the pool was great and the outside seating made it fun to have the whole family sit pool side for meals. The sunsets are amazing. The only downside is that the kitchen is very small.

Amazing Sunsets

We had a wonderful week at ParadiSea. The location was great and was easily assessable to St. Augustine. The quaint neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and the pool and dock made for a relaxing vacation in itself. The sunsets from the dock were absolutely stunning! Fort Matanzas and the the Matanzas Inlet were just a short boat ride away, and the beach was just across A1A. David was so helpful and responded within minutes if we had questions. He even left a welcome note with coupons for us on arrival. We also appreciated the drive-on Butler Beach as it made for easy loading and unloading of beach gear. Our boys rented e-bikes from Sun & Fun E-bikes which added to the fun and their customer service is top notch as well. Everyone we met and dealt with were very kind and helpful and made you feel welcome. Some of our favorite eateries in the area were Parlor Donuts, Kookaburra Coffee, Viola’s and Paladar Cuban Eatery all within a few minutes drive. It was a great vacation and we hope to return soon!

Great house

House was great, but disclaimer…boat dock is tidal. Wish I did some more research on the area beforehand or it would have been nice to mention in the listing description. Dock is very tidal. Our boat sat in the mud for about 4-5 hours around low tide. Had to change plans and be very strategic about boat trips.

Highly recommend this house for a stay near St. Augustine! Excellent location-close to stores, restaurants, and the beach. Fishing was great from the dock. (My son caught 4 sharks!) The outdoor space was so relaxing and had everything we could want. The owner was responsive and the house was clean and well stocked. The kitchen was a bit small for preparing meals for the 12 of us, but that’s the only downside of this rental! We’d definitely stay here again.

Great House and Location

House is perfect for large groups. Plenty of space so you don’t feel like you are in the way or if you just need a quiet place. Backyard view is gorgeous. Very close to beach and downtown St Augustine. Highly recommend eco boat tour. Look in your email for free tickets from property manager. We received 6 free tickets per day for different events which was a nice surprise. If I’m back in St Augustine I will look for this property. Manager was easy to contact, beds were comfy, great neighbors, plenty of parking, pillows, and pots, pans nice gas grill. Loved it

BEWARE!!!

Home smelled musty on arrival. Looked up and noticed black mold on the ceilings all around every a/c vent. Called and texted right away that we would not be staying. Got a text then a call from the property manager that they were unaware of any issues but that they would send someone out to check. We checked into a hotel and told them to let us know what they found out. Property manager told me they would have the air tested and that he would get back with me the next day. He never did, so after 2 nights in a hotel, we drove home. When I finally heard from them, they told me the air test was fine but would not send me a copy of the report. They also will not refund my money. VRBO has been contacted, and they are investigating this property. I have also contacted the health department. I don't care how they respond to this, because this is the truth. Terrible company. Terrible communication. Black mold on the ceiling is disgusting. BEWARE!!!
