My husband and I have been renting homes on the beach for our vacation for years. This home, by far, surpassed any home we have stayed in. It was beautiful, clean, very comfortable and the owners were accommodating to our every need. We recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a luxurious stay on the beach. We are already planning a trip back.

Owner response:Hi Guys, Casa Vedra misses you. Hurry back. Chris and Darlene

Casa Vedra is a wonderful direct oceanfront home for relaxing and enjoying time with loved ones. Our parents enjoyed the private suite with first floor entrance. Kids had everything they needed for a full day of fun on the beach. Casa Vedra is beautifully furnished with every detail you can image. The owners are very pleasent and helpful with information about places to go in St. Augustine and surrounding areas. We recommend this beautiful home to anyone that is looking for the perfect getaway. Jason and Rhonda

Owner response:Jason, The summer is fast approaching. We hope to have you back next year. Thank you, Chris and Darlene

My wife and I and two children stayed at Casa Vedra 6/18/11-6/25/11. We had a wonderful week at the beach and we were delighted to find Casa Vedra to be such a clean, bright and well-appointed home. What sets Casa Vedra apart is that the owners have taken great care to decorate and furnished it exquisitely, reflecting their contemporary taste and appreciation of the very best in quality. Everything in the home, from beds, to appliances, to entetainment systems is amongst the finest available. The owners' care and attention to detail resulted in our ability to relax right away, and feel as comfortable as if we were in our own home, with everything we needed available to us. Highly recommended!

Owner response:Andy and Lana, Thank you for your kind words and comments. We hope to have you and your family visit Casa Vedra again. Thanks, Chris and Darlene

Casa Vedra is paradise! This beautiful home is very carefully detailed; you feel like it is yours. The owners are very helpful and informed about the area and things to do. We woke up every morning to gorgeous sunrises while lying in bed - great way to start the day. The kids loved the outside hot water shower after hours on the beach and so did we. Kitchen had everything we needed and much more. Ice cream maker was a hit with the kids. Thank you for sharing your dream home and making us feel for a short time that it was ours.

Owner response:We are so glad that you had such a wonderful time. Hope to see you back at Casa Vedre soon.

My wife, daughter and I stayed at Casa Vedra for a week during the first part of Sept. 2010 and ended up meeting people who will remain our friends for the rest of our lives. The house was immaculate and included everything we needed for a stress free stay from beach toys for our daughter (and myself) to extra linens for the cool nights. The beach is literally a few short yards from the back deck. You're so close, you'll feel the spray on your face from the deck at high tide. Not to mention that the owners are courteous and professional. Only a few miles from downtown St. Augustine to the South and Sawgrass to the North, you'll be convenient to anything that you'd want to do.

Owner response:Thank you for staying with us at Casa Vedra. We are looking forward to seeing you soon. Our best, Chris & Darlene

Nancy and I stayed a week with another couple this February and loved every minute. The house is beautifully furnished and situation facing the beach Despite the cool and somewhat stormy weather we enjoyed the fireplaces, the sounds of the surf, and views from the ceiling to floor windows. The kitchen and bathrooms are luxurious. We found everything we needed. The house is very conveniently located and an easy drive into old St. Augustine We will definitely recommend this place to our friends.

Owner response:Phil and Nancy, The sunshine is ready for you at Casa Vedra. Chris and Darlene

Beautiful home with expansive views all along the east side of the house. You can stargaze from the master bed at night, then watch the sun come up in the morning. Great place to spend time with family--beach friendly with marble floors throughout. Lots of nearby activities to enjoy as well--Nature preserve, St Augustine, Jacksonville--all within a few minute drive. Beach was very secluded--no big crowds! Loved it!

Owner response:Neil and Denise, Febuary is fast approaching and we have your special week still open. Hurry back. Thanks Chris and Darlene

This house is the perfect getaway from a busy life. It has everything, an incredible view, a private excess to the beach, two separate living areas, a BBQ, an outside shower, all kitchen supplies and tools you would need, a great selection of CDs and DVDs. It is very classy furnished and decorated. We will definitely be back. Thanks, Darlene for sharing your house with us. Frank & Grit
