Ridley Suite at The Silver Sands on Crescent Beach

Ridley Suite is a studio 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 studio suite with a full kitchen, HD TV, 50 mbps wireless internet 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.

Loved the quietness of the area. Loved the semi-private nature of the beach. Everyone was friendly and fun to chat with. When we had a problem with something in the room, they were quick to address the issue. We were very satisfied with our stay. Loved Anastasia Island and St Augustine. We would definitely return.

Great stay at Silver Sands
We have booked units here over the last ten years and are always very pleased with the natural Florida setting, the beautiful beach and overall quiet. It’s the old Florida setting we love. The units are clean and the management is very responsive to questions. If you plan on staying at the Ridley Suite, be aware it is an efficiency, so storage space is limited so you should plan accordingly. Overall it was a great stay and we’d book it again in a heartbeat.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The property was very cute, a/c worked well and appeared clean, but we were disappointed that we were required to clean it ‘how you would like to have it upon your arrival.’ I would never trash a hotel room and didn’t expect any cleaning service during our stay since it was a vrbo, but to have to fully clean before we leave is ridiculous. It also made me wonder how clean everything actually was if it’s not being fully cleaned and disinfected in between customers.

Wonderful get away
We had a great stay at Silver Sands. We stand in the Ridley. It had everything we needed and o stall pretty clean. The bed was very comfortable most places aren't and I'm very picky. We saw a couple turtles on the property don't mess with them but enjoyed seeing them around. The walk to the beach was quick and so nice hardly anyone around. I did make a suggestion to the property owner of adding a stool to the shower to make shaving for us women easier, if not might want to consider bringing a foldable one I know that's not doable for everyone who travel far. Other then that we enjoyed our stay and would come back.
