Beautiful Home Close to All the Sites

The property was better than the photos even showed. Great accommodations for the six of us girls staying for a bachelorette weekend. Very cute and modern set up with lots of space to sit and hang out together as a group while still having our own sleeping spaces upstairs. It was also great to be so close to the beach or downtown depending on what we were doing that day. Made our trip a memorable experience.

Great location and nice house... outside was nothing but weeds

We did have a great stay and it was super convenient to downtown. We did want to use the outdoor space for a small family dinner and it was so unappealing and overgrown by tall weeds we were too embarrassed to invite anyone to the patio.Otherwise, inside was great.

Perfect in every regard

This place is exceptional! The location is perfect to walk to many of the sights in St. Augustine and is in a quiet, gorgeous neighbourhood. Many restaurants nearby, and an easy walk, just watch out for the peacocks. The house has all of the amenities that you could want and enough room that no one ever had to worry about being in someone's way. Beautiful décor, huge spacious rooms and and a massive master bathroom. Check-in/ check-out was simple and the host responds very quickly to any contact, even if to just say 'Welcome'. This is the place to stay when visiting St. Augustine.
