About this property

Olde Towne Beach Life - The Best of Both Worlds

The Place to be - - Olde Towne Beach Life St.Augustine and this condo! Our location is perfect any time of the year. A short walk to the beautiful flat beaches or free parking next to the pier. All your beach needs: umbrella, towels, beach chairs...As a fellow vacationer explains: it’s conveniently located to Old Town, Amphitheater, and lots of great places to relax, eat, and drink. Are you ready to begin your exploration of the most ancient city in America!
We have enjoyed so many places in the time we have spent in St. Augustine. First walking to the beach, swimming, fishing off the pier, riding a bike to the inter-coastal with the seagulls in the morning, playing volleyball, hanging out listening to the outdoor concerts and music echoing from local hot spots.

Cool theme restaurants like The Conch house and newly renovated Panama Hattie’s. Salt Life restaurant which can pick you up by golf cart if your drinking more than one; the taco shop known for their UFO tacos, Le petit’s French bakery which has amazing omelets that are so huge you will have to share…. or not! Geez haven’t touched on the historic district which has so much good food and enjoyable/quaint evening dining, entertainment, sightseeing, and places to kick back and have a drink while listening to music and people watching from one of the many balconies. There is public parking however we suggest the Red Trolley, Uber, Lyft or even take the bikes if you’re the athletic type.

There is a Farmers market several mornings during the week as well as major concerts in the local Amphitheater which you can get to by bike or less than mile drive. Dates and times available in The Social of St. Augustine on the internet.

Volleyball is available on the 6 beach courts next to the pier. One of our favorite things to do.

I like the pet adoption thrift store .5 mile away for unique things (the hubby doesn’t like that kind of hunting) and don’t forget to go to the alligator farm although a bit too close to the pet adoptions🧐🦔 for my liking. (Only kidding). so many adventures in the coolest place ever and we are originally from New York!

Getting around
We enjoy the bikes because the trails are throughout the beach areas and beach restaurants. There is public parking in the historic district or metered. Bike is 3.8 mi. Over bridge and pretty easy ride. Take the trolley from condo or Uber...The historic district is just wonderful to explore day and night!

Enjoyed Our Long Stay ! Location is Perfect!

We stayed 10 days at this Old Town condo/villa. It is truly - The Best of Both Worlds. You can make it a beach day or beach days. Or you can explore old St Augustine at your leisure. We did just that! Spending 10 days allowed us to soak up the sun and all that St Augustine offered. Lori was very responsive to our inquiries. We plan on returning again to see the Night of Lights in Nov-Jan to see St Augustine all lit up. Bill and Rose Brandon Fl.

Old Towne Beach Life

This condo is neat, tidy, and scrupulously clean. Plenty of parking in the lot, close to the building, for unloading and loading. It is a short walk to the beach, and there are many restaurants close by that are all great for singles, couples, and families. It is a short drive to Old St. Augustine, very easy to get to. As for the inside of the condo, there are a few drawbacks. There is no electrical outlet in the master bathroom. The furniture in the living room area really is not designed for the space and appears to be more for an outdoor patio area than a living room. Using the television was a challenging proposition. In the owner's notes, the owner mentions that you can use xfinity stream, but actually xfinity can only be used on your home wifi. We weren't able to use it. Pillows, sheets, blankets are all clean but worn, and would probably warrant a "refresh."

Overall a very good clean unit. Easy walk to beach and restaurants. Only issue is not much insulation from noisy upstairs neighbors. Can easily hear footsteps, music, tv. Etc. would be great to have quiet hours posted.

Location/Accomadations

Overall a great stay! Owners were very thoughtful with their amenities. Everything you needed was there from cookware to beach accessories and bikes. Very short walk to a great beach. Plenty of sand and not over crowded. Very close to downtown and restaurants, and a easy short drive to historic St. Augustine. Great stay and location.

Great place actually near the beach.

Houses near the beach are difficult to find, this condo really is a short walk from the beach and the local restaurants. For all intents and purposes, the driveway of this place is at '19th' so if you want to walk to the 10th st beach entrance (the best) its 9 blocks and these blocks are smaller than say NYC blocks. Its a quiet place, we hardly got chased by killer alligators at all ;-) The condo was well equipped and you can keep up on the laundry so you can pack smaller. Driving to stuff off the island is pretty easy to grasp after a day. We will be back

Great location - Great stay

Very nice stay in St Augustine and a great location - close to restaurants and the beach but far enough off the road to be peaceful. The condo has a nice beachy feel and has what you need - especially liked the beach cart, chairs and toys, were very handy. The master bed was comfy and no complaints from the kiddos.

Not as Claimed

Property was small and clean. Its was located miles away from Old Town St. Augustine. It would be quite an arduous bike ride to reach old town. Torrential rain created 4 inches of water between front door and parking area. No electrical outlets in master bathroom. Living room seating was uncomfotable. Closest beach was not great. When we tried to watch tv on first night, the remote control had dead batteries .

Spending Time in Florida for First Time.

St. Augustine Beach and property location are perfect for those looking for a quite relaxing time with access to beach and great restaurants. The condo was perfect size for two people albeit furniture could use an upgrade. to be slightly more comfortable. Even so, we're considering coming back next year.

Can't sleep on beds Or sit on sofa you hit bottom.

When I first walked in I thought this is cute. Reminds me of my great grandmothers place in Florida when I was a kid. Then I went to sit down on the sofa and there is no padding in any of your cushions or chairs. Then I went to master bedroom what a joke I sat down on the bed and springs are in my butt. There was Poop on the toilet rim, pubic hair on toilet in master? Which I cleaned. I woke up at 1am the first night in so much pain. Sunk in a bed full of springs. Then I went in the other bedroom were the 2 beds are like sleeping on the floor. Are these boards? If my back wasn't out I would have left. My daughter in law age 33 and weighs 105 said what the hell? Beds are boards and the other you sink in to and springs hit you? She stayed one night and said I can't stay another. My friend came over and couldn't believe this nightmare. I had to go get a back massage in order to move which I never do. Saturday after noon my friend came and packed me up and I left a few days early. With my back so bad she had to load my car follow me home and unpack for me. I had to sleep in my home with no heat as my air conditioner was broke and I 50 minutes away. The insurance Co. asked me to leave during home repairs. So when I got home the repairs were not completed yet as I was to stay a few more days. I would rather be Freezing as it was 50 that night just to be able to walk and get relief from your neglect of replacing cushions or getting updated mattress that are not from 20-40 years ago like the furniture. You have a guest book and I see you tore out complaints in your book? The TV nightmare. You can't get local channels unless you pay. Services keep going in and out to watch shows from 1950's? This was the worst get away I ever had.

Perfect Getaway Sept 10-17th 2022

This is a very nice rental condo. The home was very well maintained, cleaned and just laid out beautifully. It was nice having 2 full bathrooms. They had towels and sheets already there waiting to go. The hall closet is full of goodies to take to the beach. We used the A Street beach access as you can drive your car on it. It made things very handy as we brought our dog with us. John and Lori are perfect to work with. There was an issue with the washer which they just ended up replacing with a new one. They were so very kind to us and sent us to dinner on them because of this. The process though went very well. They are very thoughtful and reliable owners. We had a very special time. Would love to come again. Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in your wonderful Condo. The Jamisons Kentucky
