Beach Beach Trip Ever!

This was our second year renting this home. The beach is beautiful and we often felt like we were on a private beach. We loved being so close to St. Augustine and hanging out below the deck enjoying the beach AND the shade. We'll be back!

Enjoyable stay at Sandy Feet

We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Feet. It is right on the uncrowded beach, offers a nice deck overlooking the ocean, and is convenient to everything we wanted to do. Owner was very pleasant and responded to inquiries promptly. Enjoyable week with friends.

Beachfront

This is our family of 8 plus dogs fifth year staying at sandy feet retreat. Owner is excellent to work with and house meets all my families needs. Parking can be tough but not impossible we have 3 full size trucks and its tight but doable. Very clean and pictures are accurate. My families favorite part of the house is oceanfront deck and of course right on the beach for many hours of fun.

Our Favorite Beach House

This was the third time staying at Colleen's and it did not disappoint. The location of the house is perfect! There's plenty of room to spread out (inside & out). The beds are comfy and there's plenty of towels, toys & pantry items. We have created so many memories here, I would highly recommend staying here!!

Vacation getaway

Very clean and well equipped house. I chose this rental due to the pet friendly feature, but was constantly on edge as there are no secure areas for them to play. I wished they had either a fenced in yard or a gate closing off the second story deck. Once out, an extremely dangerous highway is directly across the street. I recommend bringing a baby gate. Young children would also benefit from this additional safety net. Plenty of sleeping areas. Nice comfortable king beds, but if steps are a problem for anyone in your party it could prove difficult. Both getting the dogs out or going to lower level bedrooms.Those steps are very narrow and steep. Location is great. It’s right on a nice clean and quiet beach.

Property was clean and great and had everything we were looking for. The deck was amazing!

We would love to rent it again in the future. Convenient to St. Augustine and the private beach access was just amazing. My wife and I, our 4 kids, and my father all had plenty of room and everything we needed to make our vacation great.

slice of beach heaven

My new home away from home! I love being able to walk right out the back door and onto the beach. And almost just as important for me was being able to bring my dog and having the freedom to walk the beach without the public crowds. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Does not disappoint.

A Perfect Week

What a wonderful week at this property! The beach was incredible and it felt so private. We loved the shady area under the porch: it was the perfect spot to stay out of the sun and still enjoy the ocean. The house has great views from almost every room and we really appreciated the extra towels. Hope to return next year!

Great Beach stay!

This was a great house! Love the environmental friendly geothermal air conditioning system and prefer to keep our Florida beaches free from chemicals. But Just a note if you happen to have a ‘pregnant’ or ‘sensitive to smells’ person in your party… sitting on the deck you may experience a bit of a sulfur smell when air is running.

Perfect beach get-away

If you are looking for a place close enough to St Augustine to take in the sights but far enough to enjoy privacy and relax on a lovely deck right in the oceans edge, this place fits the bill. Great host communication.
