WaterColors is the ULTIMATE beach house - a beautiful 3300 square foot home directly on the ocean! It is built on two levels, with the main living area upstairs. Here you will find a huge living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, and two master suites, both with king beds, ocean views and access to the deck. Walls of glass provide fantastic ocean views, and the wrap-around deck offers outdoor seating and eating spaces, both covered and uncovered.

The kitchen has just been remodeled and is now completely open to the living area. It has a breakfast area, fantastic ocean views through a large picture window and two walls of glass. Outfitted with lots of storage, granite counters and a huge granite island, side-by-side refrigerator with water and ice on the door, gas cook top, microwave, TV, and access to the deck just outside, the kitchen is sure to please the most discriminating cook.

The upper level is decorated in a sophisticated, serene, and relaxed mode, in shades of blue, taupe, and white, with splashes of stem green. Dark teak and seagrass furnishings insure that the ocean tones pop! A wet bar, tall bar/game table, and a wonderful ultra-suede sectional sofa guarantee that our guests will be ultra-comfortable!

The master suite is a destination in itself. Located just off the main living area, the bedroom features a beautiful king sized poster bed, entertainment armoire, comfy reading chair, access to a covered portion of the deck and great ocean views, and last, but not least, a complete computer center with Dell computer, 19" flat screen monitor, fast DSL Internet connection, and a Fax,Printer,Scanner. The master bath features a large jacuzzi type tub, separate shower with ocean views, large vanity with double sinks, and tons of storage!

On the other side of the main level is the "junior master". This lovely and serene room features a king size silver toned metal bed, large entertainment armoire, charming window seat, sliding door access to the deck and ocean beyond, and ample storage. An adjacent bath serves this bedroom, as well as doing duty as a powder room and, thanks to a door opening to the deck, acting as a "beach bath".

The main level ocean side deck is huge! It runs the length of the house and around both sides, offering deck access to both master suites. A portion of the deck has just been expanded to 30 feet by 16 feet, making it perfect for entertaining. We have lounge chairs, dining table for 8 (with umbrella), bar table for 4 and several comfortable patio chairs.... perfect!

Downstairs, the house is outfitted for fun and games. Three bedrooms and a queen sleeper sofa insure that adults and kids alike will have ample sleeping space. One bedroom has a queen bed, one has two twins, the bunk room has three bunks, and the game room contains a queen sleeper.

The game room with pool table and other games offers hours of rainy day and night time activities for everyone. The Play Station II in the bunkroom will insure that the smallest ones are kept entertained as well! Just off the game room is a covered porch, which provides additional shaded seating and easy access to the deck and dune walkover above. A full bath, large laundry area, and garage round out this level. The entire downstairs is decorated in happy and lighthearted shades of blue, aqua, lime, and white.

A two person elevator is available for guests needing assistance or for the convenience of taking groceries and suitcases to the upper level. Televisions are provided for all bedrooms plus the living room, game room, and kitchen. Several VCRs and DVD players insure that you can watch the latest movie. Bring your favorite CDs: we have stereos in the living room and the game room. We also have a very nice book and movie library, including children's favorite videos.

You only need to bring your bathing suit to be ready for the beach! We supply beach chairs, loungers, beach umbrellas, a cooler, beach toys, beach towels, fishing rods and reels for the surf fishermen in the group, and even a guest beach bag filled with sun lotions! On the deck you will find an outdoor shower to help keep the salt and sand outside! On the dune walkover are two cozy built in seats, perfect for early morning coffee or late night moon watching.

    • We had a great time. My family stayed at watercolors and my new husbands family stayed down the road at another Wren beach house. The kitchen was great for our catered picnic and for all the "chefs" that were in the kitchen to make breakfast!! The in-laws were a short walk down the beach in another wren rental and it was great they could stay so close! My husband and I are locals, but still felt like we were on vacation! My dad talked about doing this every year since we all had a great time!

    • We thoroughly enjoyed WaterColors this passed Labor Day week. What a beautiful home, inside and out! The accommodations are beyond nice – a perfectly appointed gourmet kitchen and bar; a very large and cozy great room; a wrap around deck overlooking the ocean; elegant master bedrooms and plenty of sleeping space to accommodate our group of 8 adults and 3 children. What more could you ask for? Historic St. Augustine is only minutes away, but chances are you’ll find yourself lounging on the deck, day and night. There’s plenty of outdoor seating and lots of fun stuff to keep the kids busy in the downstairs play area. Don't miss dining at Caps just down the road. And the Serenata Beach Club is a must, especially if you have kids. The staff is very accommodating and you’ll love the cascading pools, especially in the summer. It also offers an array of supervised activities for kids of all ages . . . well worth the small membership fee. Thanks Bill & Judy for a wonderful vacation!!!! We hope to return soon! - The Jones, Price & Preston Families, Fort Lauderdale, FL

    • We LOVED our time at Water Colors! The house has EVERYTHING that one could possibly need. We had our infant with us so having access to a crib, booster seat, etc. was really nice. The house has a great layout making it easy for everyone to relax and hang out. We loved the huge deck off the back of the house and spent every night out there. Judy was awesome to work with as well, very quick at answering any questions we had. We had a wonderful vacation and hope to return one day! Thanks for everything!

    • My family and I loved our stay at Water Colors. We were a family of 10 & everyone fit perfectly. The kids loved the PS2; there were alot of movies for them to chose from & they loved all the beach toys that were available for their use (boogie boards!). The rooms were all very big and we especially loved the kitchen. We will definitely be back next year.

    • We were extremely happy when we arrived at Watercolors. The house was beautiful and the view was spectacular! The beds were great and, there was plenty of open room for our two families. I was extremely surprised to find that the shelling was phenominal. We didn't have to travel to find great take-home shells, we just had to walk out the back door. Judy seems to have thought of everything a person needed to have a great stay at the beach! Don't hesitate to rent Watercolors. It's so spacious that even our large group didn't get in each others way.

    • We rented Watercolors to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday. Family from CA, TX, and other parts of FL stayed at the house and we never felt like there wasn't enough space. The house is beautiful and very well stocked, the location is fantastic, and Ms. Wren was an absolute pleasure to work with.

    • The Water Color House was a lovely setting for a reunion of friends. It is thoughtfully decorated and maintained to satisfy the various activities of friends and family. We greatly enjoyed our visit and hope to return again one day.

    • WaterColors offered everything promised for a funfilled week at the beach -- weather perfect! We managed to pull off a family reunion & a 90th birthday party for my Dad.(elevator definitely a plus}. With 6 children -20mo to 9yrs-so much was provided reducing what we needed to bring. The gates on the deck were an added layer of security, keeping the kids off the beach without supervision. Thanks for providing such a lovely and comfortable home.

    • What a wonderful holiday at Watercolors in South Ponte Vedra Beach. The house is beautiful and spacious. Everything that you need for a relaxing vacation. We saw many dolphins swimming by in the morning and dusk. The beach is wide and the house is up on a high dune with beautiful views. Loved the large kitchen with three different areas to sit and eat. It was hard to decide whether to stay on the beach, or stay in this incredible house! Hope to come back again soon.
