Great location! The walkway to the beach is steps away. The cozy little cottage was the perfect size for our family of 3. We enjoyed evenings on the back porch, walking to dinner and days on the beach.
Cozy & clean cottage by the beach! Loved sunrise mornings picking seashells and watching the surfers! Walked to kookaburra coffee and shops! Great stay - would stay again!
Lovely home near the beach. We enjoyed our stay! Only recommendation is to provide more towel, washcloths, and had towels. thanks for sharing your home with us!
First time at St. Augustine beach. The communication with the owner along with the check-in was excellent. Our time at the location was very enjoyable. The property was adequate for our needs. The property is close to the ocean but there was not a view of the ocean from the house. Not a big deal as only a short walk to be able to see and enjoy the beach and ocean. The beach space is large, well maintained with nice white sand. The owner provided a very detailed helpful list of things to do and restaurants to visit in the area which was very helpful. Would love to return to this location.
The VRBO listing claims "ocean view bedrooms" and from the title "Direct Oceanfront Cottage", and a picture taken from a second story of the condo behind the cottage which makes it look like the ocean view is right outside the windows, you assume you are getting that. In reality there is a berm blocking any water view. I understand there was work done building this berm recently, but the listing should indicate there is no longer that view. That being said, we loved our stay in the cottage. The ocean was just behind the berm and you can hear the ocean if you open your windows. I would stay again.
Really enjoyed the gorgeous beach and had fun exploring the downtown area. Lindaâs location is perfect and her communication before and during our stay was extremely prompt.
We rented this cottage and paid more because it was on the beach. The property manager did not tell us there was a major beach renovation project underway. Heavy equipment operated outside our bedroom window 24/7. Backup beepers were constant. The light fixture in our bedroom shook from all the noise. We should have been informed.
The stay was okay. Wasnât what we expected. We were under the impression of a private beach, a beach view. The air conditioning struggled getting the back room cooled off. Iâm thinking because it was an add on. But overall it was cute and clean. We did have some lizards and bugs in the back bedroom.
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage. It was our first visit to St. Augustine Beach, and we wanted a beachfront location, which this cottage delivered perfectly. I loved starting my mornings with a cup of coffee, watching the sunrise, and ending the evenings gazing at the ocean under a bright full moon.
The cottage itself was immaculate and the chairs around the table were exceptionally comfortable. Linda was incredibly responsive and provided excellent support whenever we had questions.
Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of St. Augustine Beach!
Nice little beach cottage just steps from the beach. Older cottage but very well maintained. Very clean. Comfy bed. Plenty of space. Only a peek-a-boo view of the ocean but can hear the waves from your bed. Will definitely be booking this one again.
This cottage really is in a great spot. A bunch of restaurants and other things to do are within easy walking distance and the beach is basically right outside the back door. It's exactly what we were looking for.
My wife and I were here for an occasion and really enjoyed ourselves. Honestly, we looked it up and this house is 90 years old, but certainly doesn't feel like it. It has all the modern amenities you could be looking for. The neighborhood is quiet (there's a noise ordinance ensuring that) and tucked away so that you wouldn't know how close you are to A1A Beach Drive if you didn't go outside.
I'm trying to be thorough here so I can actually be helpful, but any complaints I come up with would be nitpicking. There aren't any ceiling fans? True, but Linda provided a few fans, so that wasn't a big deal. One of the lamps had a bad light bulb? There aren't a ton of electical outlets in the master bedroom? Alright, I quit. The place is great. If you stay there you will not be sorry.
We loved our stay. Short walk to the beach, clean property and very peaceful experience. Linda went above and beyond to make sure our experience was amazing. We are already planning our next stay!
We had a lovely anniversary celebration at Cottage 3. The home was well appointed. The beds were comfy. We had everything we needed. Best of all was the location! Just steps across the dunes to the amazing beach. We were walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, the pier and so much more. Linda was a text away and spent extra time helping me retrieve my forgotten jacket the next day. Highly recommend!!
Our main reason for visiting St. Augustine was to see the historical sites and architecture, but we also wanted to enjoy the ocean. This worked perfectly, giving us instant access to an unimpeded, miles-long beautiful beach, perfect for walking. It also allowed us to enjoy the quiet and nature by avoiding St. Augustine crowds on weekends, but was only a quick 5-7 min drive downtown during the week. Clean property with everything needed for our 8 nights. Easy access to local restaurants and supermarkets. A great rental choice for this area.
