Sea Gem at Summerhouse - Heated Pools, Ocean Views, Beach Access

***We would like to provide an update on the concrete restoration project as of 4/28/24. This unit is in building 2. They are currently working on building 10/11 and will continue for approximately 2-3 more weeks. Once work is completed, the crews will move onto building 5 for approximately 3 weeks and then finally moving to building 1 for approximately 3 weeks. This will complete all the concrete restoration for the ocean front buildings. At this point, they will move onto the ocean view buildings (which is that this unit is). We will provide more updates as we get them from Summerhouse. ***

Welcome to the Sea Gem Beach Retreat at Summerhouse! NEWLY RENOVATED, 2 STORY CONDO in building 2 provides a visual panorama that’s absolutely breathtaking! Just one step back from ocean front units, this condo still provides sweeping views of the pool and ocean! Stunning ocean views from balcony, living room and the master bedroom! This unit is located in the northernmost building, building #2.

This bright and airy condo is very comfortable and relaxing. You'll be mesmerized by the ocean views and relaxed at the sounds of the peaceful waves that lap at the silky shore just steps away.

This lovely home has 2 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths and sleeps 6 people comfortably. It has an HD television in the living room as well as board games to enjoy when there is a need for quiet time. There are fans in all sleeping areas for your increased comfort.
The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need for the family’s dinner. Washer/dryer and linens are included as well. The dining area seats six.

The master bedroom has a wall mounted HD TV, as well as a king size bed that restores you after your day of activity and fun at the beach or visiting St. Augustine. The second bedroom has solid wood bunkbeds, twin over full, and there’s a brand new, queen size sofa sleeper in the living room.

There are books to choose from for those relaxing days and a desk for your laptop.

There is easy access to both the beach and the pools. Summerhouse complex has four heated pools, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, racquetball courts, and bike racks. There are grills with cabanas, new playgrounds for kids and horseshoes and shuffleboard. There is RV/Boat parking on the premises.

We invite you to take a short walk to the beach where you can go and enjoy the view, read, or just relax with friends. Or perhaps you may witness one of nature's greatest spectacles...sea turtles nesting!

Crescent Beach, where Summerhouse unit 115 is located, is known as one of the most beautiful beaches in the northeast of Florida. It’s an expansive white powder beach! You’ll find fisherman, bikers when the tide recedes, walkers, surfers, kite boarders, shell gatherers, and of course sun bathers! Further north, 4 wheel drive vehicles are allowed. The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill.

St. Augustine city center, only 10 miles north, is the most ancient, gorgeous city in Florida...and America for that matter! It hosts restaurants, stunning historic churches, some of the finest art galleries and a myriad of chic boutique shops. The first Friday of every month features an Art Walk, where some galleries even serve refreshments and stay open in the evening. As you walk cobble stone streets you have opportunity to explore history all around you, often hearing church bells. You can sight see through horse and buggy or trolley tours, or just shop 'til you drop! You will want to return year after year!

The cleaning company provides a limited amount of basic necessities (toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher/laundry soap, etc.) to get you started, you will want to bring some with you.

Service Animals: Pets are not allowed at our beach retreat. If you bring a pet, we will charge your damage deposit for a pet fee plus $100 for the unexpected extra services required to clean the house and you will risk cancellation of your booking. You must let us know if you are bringing a service animal, it's important to let the cleaners know and the office of the condo.

We don't offer refunds or reschedule stays during hurricane season, even if there is an evacuation order. Please purchase trip insurance for your stay if this is a concern.

Perfect destination
Love the area, lots to do and ample ways to relax. Played pickle ball every morning and beached in the afternoon. Close to everything but not in the middle of the crowds. Will be back for sure!

Truly a Sea Gem!!
We booked this rental pretty last minute for spring break. I had cancelled a different rental through VRBO due to a lack of communication, and David was quick to confirm my reservation and send a welcome message with detailed information about my stay. The home was super easy to access, parking was easily accessible, and the community members were kind. The rental was better than the photos, very clean, well stocked with linens and some toiletries. Having the little things like a few dishwasher pods and dish soap made a difference. It was nice to not have to purchase an entire one of those items for just a few days. They left a few trash bags and rolls of toilet paper as well. The beds were very comfortable, everything smelled very clean and there were plenty of extra blankets. All appliances and fixtures worked well. They kitchen was so well stocked with pots, pans, Tupperware, cooking utensils, etc.. which was perfect for cooking meals instead of needing to eat out all of the time. Proximity and access to the beach was the best I’ve ever had in any beach rental in the past. The heated pool was a big hit with my teens, and being able to watch them from our balcony was a huge plus. Overall, I’d highly recommend, I’d stay here again, and it’s definitely a top tier rental/host!

Great condo with great view
We’ve stayed in many units at Summerhouse and 115 was one of the best. The room was very clean and it felt like home.

Lovely stay!
Our family of five really enjoyed our stay here! The property is situated perfectly. Being able to hear and see the ocean while also having such a super close proximity to the pool made things easy for our family. Older kiddos could easily run back to the condo to grab something forgotten and we could keep eye still. The condo itself had everything we needed and was one of the most clean rentals we’ve ever stayed at. Cleanliness is super important to me when staying somewhere! We would definitely recommend!

Perfect Condo with Beautiful Views
This condo was perfect for our family of three. It was super clean, nicely decorated and the owners had thought of little details like a shoe basket by the front door. You can see the sunrise from the front of the condo and the sunset from the back. The community is quiet and friendly. The beach is beautiful and clean. We enjoyed going for long morning walks on the packed sand. It's a short drive to historic St Augustine. Great communication with the host. We will definitely be back!
