Guestbook comments from the manager
From Trip Advisor:
A very friendly and peaceful place to stay. Small number of units makes one feel at home and able to meet and be friends with everyone staying there. Beach was great, internet access was great. There were many things there that we took with us such as umbrellas, beach towels, beach chairs, etc and even toothbrushes as a special touch. Next time we will take fewer things. Beds were very comfortable. Great place for an individual retreat or for a family. Nice grilling areas and very clean. Very nice management personnel. We will definitely return.

Reviews
Wonderful!
4.8/5 -
(57 traveler reviews)
Pelican Cottage at Silver Sands allowed us a relaxing beach getaway for our family of 4.
Perfect space for our family of four (kids ages 9 & 7). Loved walking right out to the beach. Extremely nice to have chairs (good ones), boogie boards, umbrellas, sand toys and pails, all right there for us. Cottage was clean and had everything we needed. Very quiet property and private beach.
Beautiful Home, Location, & Owners!
We loved our stay on this property and everything that came with it. Private access to the beach, clean lovely home, lovely owners, and all the amenities you could need!!!! We loved
seeing all tortoise's on the property and rabbits. Having a private patio with a BBQ was an added bonus, and the owner's even had charcoal/lighter fluid/matches ready to go. The home was stocked with everything you needed to feel comfortable. One thing that was a huge game changer was all the fold out beach chairs, beach sun umbrellas, boogie boards, kids sand toys, beach towels, and outdoor shower. We only had one small issue with some ants in the bathroom and the owners came immediately to fix this and were awesome about it. The beach itself was just about as private as it comes, and had days where we barely saw anyone out there.
The owners were very informative on fun activities to do, and really wanted you to enjoy your stay! We ran into a couple of our neighbors, but had full privacy and never felt like we were at a resort.
This home has everything you need to enjoy a memory lasting experience in St. Augustine and have already been recommending it to friends & family!
Best,
Will, Kat, & Rachael.
Beautiful & Complete
The Pelican Cottage at the Silver Sands is a wonderful vacation spot. The cottage was clean, fully stocked with everything you could want or need for a beautiful beach vacation. In addition to the loveliest nearly private beach, you are also close to downtown St. Augustine which is full fun and activities. This was our second visit to the Silver Sands and I definitely plan on returning. Being provided with tons of amenities both in the cottage and for the beach makes this a hassle-free destination. Plus seeing the turtles wander around is just precious. I'll say again, that the nearly private beach, with it's clean, clear and sparkling water is such a hidden gem. One of our favorite vacations spots.
Tranquil retreat
We had a very relaxing stay at the cottage on the beach. Our turtle friends were a special delight and the cottage was clean and very accommodating.
Great Beach Trip!
The place was exactly as described, if not better. Having the chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards available to use was very nice. It was like having your own personal beach in the middle of June. This was our first time in Crescent Beach, and we loved it.
Great
My family and I loved Pelican Cottage. Was everything we read about and more. We only had two days of beach time due to all of the rain but we enjoyed shopping. We will definitely be back next year. Thanks for a great stay.
Map
The property is beach front and from the suites and cottages, there is a nature path thought the woods, over the ancient dune to the new beach walk over the last dune. Along the path you see wild flowers, wildlife, tortoises and palms.
