"Atlantic Star"
Best Price. Spacious and Charming
Oceanfront Home in Prime Location!
Formerly the beach retreat of one of Jacksonville's most famous families, this charming oceanfront home blends period design and antiques with modern, updated conveniences to provide the perfect balance of charm and comfort. It's only half a mile from the top-rated Ponte Vedra Inn and Spa, and walking or biking distance to food and fun, including groceries, Starbucks, shopping, and a number of excellent local restaurants for every taste. (Homes in South Ponte Vedra-like so many on this website-are 20-30 minutes away from these conveniences.)
Located in a residential neighborhood, the beach is wonderful - wide and mostly private, so you can relax in a lounge chair and watch the pelicans flying overhead in formation, or the dolphins frolicking in the waves. Whether you prefer to surf or fish, walk for miles in either direction, look for shells or sharks' teeth, or just read and daydream, you'll find the the perfect spot on our wonderful secluded stretch of beach or shady porch. Full decks on both the first and second floors provide the perfect backdrop to watch the sun rise over the ocean or enjoying an evening drink.
Back inside, a spacious living room (with TV/VCR/DVD and full bar) can accommodate even the largest groups. The open kitchen is a favorite gathering place, with all the amenities you would expect. The dining room with a dimmable chandelier has a large farmhouse style table, perfect for memorable gatherings with family and friends. A complete laundry room and full bath with oversized shower on the first floor offers outside beach access for changing after you day on the beach.
Upstairs, you'll find four comfortable bedrooms including two master bedrooms, one with a king and the other a queen, each with en suite full baths and TVs, overlooking a large deck and ocean below. The third bedroom boasts a queen and fourth is a kid's delight with three twins. Both share a spacious full bath in the hallway. Plus, there is a futon bed on the glassed-in porch. This warm, spacious and comfortable home sleeps nine and can accommodate up to twelve with a couple airbeds or sleeping bags for the kids.
Book a massage, go golfing, or visit nearby St. Augustine for the day, exploring cobblestone streets, the colonial fort, the Alligator Farm and the lighthouse. Other possible destinations include Daytona and Disney World (2 hours). But our bet is that you'll choose to spend most of your time right here, enjoying the pleasures of this lively beach town during the day, and falling asleep to the roar of the ocean each night.
"Atlantic Star" is the perfect spot for a stress-free vacation. To make it extra special, a complimentary, chilled bottle of Champagne awaits you in the fridge. Truly a haven for a peaceful and memorable get-a-way, "Atlantic Star" has it all!

What a great vacation! We loved the location - everything we
could want was less than 5 minutes away, but the house and
beach were very quiet and secluded. The décor was totally
charming and it had everything we needed. The upstairs deck
was the perfect spot to read and watch the waves. We'll
DEFINITELY stay again!

We wanted to get away after Christmas and at the last minute
found "Atlantic Star" and loved it. We really lucked out with
the weather, and were able to sit out on the beach most days.
With some fantastic restaurants right up the street, we didn't
have to drive more than 1/2 mile for dinner and could have
walked. Very cozy and comfortable accommodations made it feel
like home. Highly recommended.
