Best Vacation Rental Ever!

This was by far the nicest vacation rental I've ever stayed in. The home was beautifully decorated and has EVERYTHING you could possibly need or want in a vacation home. You can really tell the owner has put a tremendous amount of time and effort into making this place top notch! The location is great and views of the sunset in the evening from the pool/dock were amazing. I highly recommend staying at this property!

AMAZING ST. AUGUSTINE STAY

This was my family's first time doing a beach vacation at a house and not in a condominium directly on a beach and we're never going back! This house was the perfect place for my entire family and the owners were so communicative if we had any questions or concerns during our stay! You won't regret your decision to stay at this property!!

Spectacular home with everything a family and/or friends would need to have a memorable vacation. It has a pool, a hot tub, and it's on a canal that leads to the intercostal, with a dock if you have a boat. It's a short walk to the beach with a walkway dedicated to the neighborhood. Has everything you need-towels, beach chairs, beach wagon, boogie boards and SO MANY fun games. We loved our stay!

Reel Treasure is a lovely home right on the canal. The outdoor space is wonderful with heated pool, hot tub, grill, dining and amble casual seating. Kayaks and bikes also available.

Was perfect in every way. We were there 3 weeks and the whole family wanted to stay longer. Manatees and sea turtles coming to the dock was a definite highlight of our stay. Can’t say enough about the owner and how welcoming they were. We could have asked for the moon and they would try to help us get it. Will recommend Reel Treasure wholeheartedly.

Great Place To Stay

If you’re going to St. Augustine this is the place to stay. The house had everything you could possibly need and the kitchen was fully stocked with high end necessities. The backyard pool/hot tub setting was extremely spacious with a lot of wildlife activity. The listing photos actually don’t do it justice for how beautiful the backyard is. I also appreciated how the owner would check in to make sure everything was going well. Would stay here again no questions asked.
