Serenity Beach House, Luxury 3 Bedroom Beach Front
- Minimum stay:N/A
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:Yes
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Perched right on the shores of Ponte Vedra Beach, Serenity is a wonderfully private, exquisitely decorated 2-story house with a big yard, an oceanfront deck, and all the amenities you could wish. Make it your destination for the perfect Florida vacation!
You’ll fall in love with Serenity before you even step inside, thanks to the second-story deck overlooking the Atlantic. The sun rises right in front of you here, dolphins swim by, pelicans glide past, and terns pad in the wet sand just out of reach of the waves. The murmur of the surf is the soundtrack you will hear at Serenity, soothing and restful. Our balcony is a great place to spend an hour or an entire day, flopped out with a good book, a pair of binoculars, and your best friends and family.
Step indoors and you find yourself in our huge, open second-floor living area, divided to create different conversation areas while still remaining light and airy. The length of the room facing the sea is devoted to watching the beautiful landscape, either from comfy couches and chairs or even through our telescope. Beyond this, another group of seating surrounds the big TV, with cable and DVD player.
Light fills this house from all sides, and you’ll appreciate the blending of outside and indoors. Even the dining room is set with one wall of windows, so that you can enjoy the changing colors of the sky as you gather around the long table for a seafood feast or a rousing game of Crazy Eights.
Right next to the dining area is the kitchen, separated by a low wall that doubles as a serving counter. Everything you need to prepare and serve a feast (except the food!) will be found in our kitchen, down to utensils and gadgets, appliances large and small, and the full complement of cookware, glassware, and dishes. Even if you plan to dine out during this vacation, you can dish up snacks in style and reheat the leftovers in our gleaming, fully appointed kitchen!
The living and dining areas are open and joined, while the 3 bedrooms at Serenity are marvelously private and quiet. Two of the rooms have en-suite baths, with a third full bathroom as well, all stocked with towel sets. You will find Serenity far more comfortable than any hotel suite, because not only are all linens provided, but there’s even a washer and dryer to keep everything clean and fresh!
The first master suite offers a queen-sized bed in a beautifully decorated room, with an en-suite bath that includes a luxe Jacuzzi-jetted bathtub! You’ll look forward to returning to this suite each evening, and lingering late every morning.
The second bedroom also offers a queen-sized bed with an attached bathroom, while the third contains 2 double beds – perfect for all the kids! Each room is beautifully furnished and spacious enough for all. The bedrooms at Serenity have both character and comfort – an unbeatable combination!
As a bonus, the ground-floor also contains a family room with entertainment center, offering a second space for the group to relax. This is perfect for those times when part of your gang wants to watch a sentimental movie while another catches a big game on the sports channel – or when the teens want some privacy. You have free WiFi at Serenity too, so you can bring all your electronics and stay as connected as you like!
But the very best part of our beachfront house is its location. A big, grassy yard to one side offers a great place for the kids to play and the grown-ups to sunbathe or chat. A path leads directly down to the beach, past the lovely natural dunes. And Ponte Vedra Beach is unspoiled, beautiful, and ever-changing, a perfect little strip of coastline you will love. Whether your passion is boogie-boarding, shelling, or simply sitting at the edge of the water letting the waves tickle your toes, you will revel in the beauty and peace of our beach! Come visit very soon.

Very disappointed in the condition of the house. LOTS of broken tile much of which is hidden under carpet tiles but can hear them crunch. The fridge is rusted on the front and really looks terrible. A little paint would go a long way. The furniture is old but decent. Old water damage on ceiling was not covered up well. The Garage has old stuff in it and only usable if you want to make the room yourself. Pictures of course dont show these things so just want to be honest. It is pet friendly and has a small area off the back deck for the dog. The deck and the beach view are wonderfull as is the beach itself. We had a great time and will be returning to the area again just in a different home.Owner response: Hi John - I just received your feedback and wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to fill out our survey.

We loved the location of this property and being directly on the beach was a fabulous part of our vacation. We spent many hours sitting on the balcony watching the ocean - such a tranquil experience. We played golf, shopped, experienced the history of<br/> the area, and ate...a lot! Everything was in a very short driving time. On the down side - we were never able to access WiFi (3 of us had our laptops), the tiled kitchen floor was broken (but covered with rug remnants) and some of the furniture was outdated,<br/> but overall, the experience was great.Owner response: Hi Barbara - I just received your feedback and wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to fill out our survey.

The decor suited us so well - very bohemian and relaxed. Some of the tiles in the kitchen are broken, but in place. Towel bars need to be replaced, but everything was in working order otherwise. Very peaceful, so convenient to shopping, site-seeing. Would highly recommend this duplex!Owner response: Hi Cynthia - I just received your feedback and wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to fill out our survey.

Excellent location and spacious and clean rental. However, several issues. First: mice in the unit. Spotted twice running along floor, they got in pantry, ate bananas sitting on kitchen counter, etc. Property manager has unit treated, but on our last day there, we found fresh evidence. Unacceptable. several small issues (no DVDs in unit despite advertised as such, no remote for upstairs TV/satellite, no access to garage space). Great beachfront location, but would not rent this unit again.Owner response: Mr. Falcon - I just received your feedback and wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to fill out our survey.

I had friends come down from TN and they couldn't have enjoyed themselves more. The property is a sand wedge from the ocean (right on the dunes) with private, direct beach access. The townhome is mostly modernized and very clean. I would suggest calling a day before to make sure they turn the air on before you get there, but that was our only complaint. Vaca.rentalpros. did a great job through the entire stay making sure we were comfortable. We will definitely use them again and possibly stay at this townhome if the opportunity and need arises.Owner response: Hi Jarrett - I just received your feedback and wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to fill out our survey.

great oceanfront view, good location - had problems with wifi (that was fixed within hours, the guy that came out was very nice) – that is where the good review STOPS ... property is listed as a "house" (it is a townhome) - the floor tile is cracked badly in the kitchen - there is a hole in the wall by the back door - there are other "holes" that have been patched but not painted - the yard (oceanside) was badly overgrown & littered with garbage – master bath is terribly clogged & takes forever to drain – drywall is peeling in master bedroom – ceiling is cracking & peeling in all rooms – sliding door in master bedroom will not lock & has a piece at the bottom that pops up every time you open the door – doorknob missing from master bath closet – closet door in 2nd bedroom is very hard to open & close – all of these problems were reported to management within hours of our arrival – we were told that they would send someone out to take care of the problems … NOTHING was done about them – I would NOT recommend this property to a friendOwner response: Hi Leah - I just received your feedback and wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to fill out our survey.

Owner info
About the owner: My name is Steve Milo and I stay in Vacation Rental Homes when I travel both domestically and abroad. I own several vacation rental homes and listen carefully to our guests and their feedback! Our greatest compliment is when our guests refer our web site to their friends and relatives. AND, now I am managing other people's properties in St Augustine Beach, Daytona Beach, Palm Coast and Ponte Vedra Beach. Our guests and their great 'word of mouth' have helped us expand to over 500+ vacation rentals. We booked over 10,000 rentals and received over 3,000 guest reviews in 2011. You can find some of these by going to search engines and typing in Steve Milo or 'Vacation Rental Pros' . Thank you!
Why the Owner Chose Vilano Beach:
And the best part of it all is the location. You're within a short car ride of historic downtown St. Augustine, the oldest city in America filled with pedestrian walkways with shops, cafes and first class restaurants. We are also close to Daytona Beach and the Daytona speedway and museum. We are also only a 1 1/2 hour drive to Orlando and Disney World/Universal/Sea World as well as 1 1/2 hour to the Kennedy Space Center. Our rental is also a short car ride to Ponte Vedra Beach and PGA golf Course and TPC as well as Jacksonville with the brand new St John's Town Center (with a Costco), Avenue Mall and River Front Arcade. There is also a minor league baseball team and a professional football team and stadium.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
The beach is wide and unspoiled here by large crowds. Kids will spend hours exploring, and their parents and grandparents will love discovering new areas to relax and reconnect If you're ready for uncrowded beaches, balmy weather, clear skies, and Florida's natural wildlife, come visit us today!
