    Kemp's Cottage, a 2 bedroom beach cottage at The Silver Sands on Crescent Beach

    Kemp's cottage is a two Bedroom suite, situated in a quiet, oceanfront retreat on a natural, dune property with the pristine beaches of Anastasia Island. A perfect place for the person that enjoys walks through a natural environment. It is located south of historic St. Augustine, the nation's oldest city. A cottage with a full kitchen, HD TV, 50 mbps wireless internet, queen sleeper sofa and more. Enjoy beautiful white sand beaches with swimming, surfing, fishing, barbecue in a private, natural setting. We also supply beach towels, beach umbrellas, beach chairs, small cooler, carts to tote down the path to the beach walkover and much more.

    With only 1 cottage and 3 suites on the entire oceanfront property, it feels like your own, private tropical escape. Kemp's Cottage, Hawksbill Suite, Monarch Suite and Ridley Suite are all listed on VRBO. Choose to view all listings below for more information. The extensive renovations included replacing most of the systems, insulation and soundproofing, new windows, doors, bathrooms and kitchens, providing luxurious accommodations to the perfect St. Augustine, beachfront vacation.

    The property includes many tall palms, flowering tropical plants and places to relax. When you follow the 2 minute long path to the beach you'll come across many native plants and will get to know the original residents of the land including the gopher tortoise, the wildlife that their burrows support, the monarch butterflies as they migrate, and many species of birds. Lounge in the courtyard, cool off in the pristine waters of Crescent Beach, surf at one of the best surfing beaches in Florida, visit one of the many great restaurants, or cook in your well-equipped kitchen or efficiency kitchen.

    If you need something, ask our helpful onsite staff, call or email, we are there to make sure your time at The Silver Sands is second to none.

    Very nice.
    Cottage was a friendly stay for a family of 4. Check in process great. Use of beach chair/umbrella appreciated. Linens were clean & abundant. Beach access was wonderful! A/C worked great. No coffee included. Washing machine and dishwasher were a little dirty, coated with white powder. No tv in master. Overall a nice place to stay, would defiantly recommend.

    Excellent beach stay outside Saint Augustine
    The place is about 20 minute drive south of St Augustine, along A1 on the ocean side. There are several buildings/apartments within Silver Sands, not sure how many are actually rented. Kemp's cottage is the first on the left as you enter the driveway. Easy to get in and out with a designated parking space. Large clean specious 2-bedroom. Very comfy beds. Well stocked kitchen. Large family room with TV. Washer/dryer. The only draw back is 1 bathroom, so the 4 of us had to share. But literally, this was the only drawback. The Office staff was great (we asked for extra shampoo which they gladly supplied). Short walk to the beach. My 80 year old mother had fun climbing the dune to get to the beach, but if you have a person in your party who has trouble walking, the dune may be a tough obstacle. The cottage provided a beach bag, coolers and 2 umbrellas (awesome!), and there were communal beach chairs on the way to the beach. There are no restaurants/entertainment within easy walking, but everything is within a short drive. Overall 5 out 5 stay. Thank you.

    Very nice however
    Difficult getting down to beach after stairs stopped. Appliances might need to be replaced, particularly the dishwasher. Most of mugs , small bowls on the top rack did not get cleaned. The refrigerator was ok but was often really loud.

    Lovely cottage and great location
    We had a great 10 days at this lovely cottage. Great location for walks on the beach and short drives to interesting hikes and sights. The cottage was supplied with all we needed, and the bed was comfortable. The only negatives were the noise from the traffic on the road and there was no view of the ocean from the small windows. Still well worth it and we would return.

    Annual Vacation
    I have returned to Silver Sands for many, many years. My late husband and I were married on the beach there! The accommodations are perfect and we love the shed that provides all of our beach necessities. The cottages provide everything for my family to prepare meals, do laundry, and towels for the beach. Our Florida family comes to visit and they always love SS as much as we do.
