Great beach house for a crowd. Road construction right now in front of the place, but that did not deter the fun. Well stocked kitchen for cooking! Really appreciate that all cleaning necessities like dishwasher soap, trash bags, etc… were provided.

I cannot thank Randall and Karina enough. We had an issue with our stay that was not in their control. It caused us to have to be relocated to another rental after our first night there. They had been wonderful in all of our pre-stay communication, even allowing our group that was arriving at different times with an early entry to accommodate everyone. The next day , they went above and beyond to arrange alternate accommodations to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay in St. Augustine. We loved Oyster House and would highly recommend the location and working with Randall and Karina on this rental.

The home was nice, clean, and fit everyone well. We had 10 guests and it felt spacious. It is just steps to the beach. There are plenty of nice bathrooms. There is laundry on site. The views are relaxing with partial ocean and partial intracoastal waterway views. This gives great sunrise and sunset ambiance. The location is close to saint Augustine. There is a grocery store right down the road. The host was quick to respond to all messages and was kind. Checking in and out was easy. We would stay again and will keep it in mind for future trips.

The perfect retreat

We had a wonderful stay. Location was amazing, hosts were very responsive, everything was clean and well kept. Traffic along A1A was louder than expected. Loved having dinner on the back porch overlooking the marsh and being walking distance from the beach.

Unfortunately, this was one of the worst experiences we’ve had.The photos and description did not reflect the actual location of the house. It is situated right next to a busy highway that runs along the beach, and there is constant traffic noise. To access the beach, you have to cross this highway, and there is no crosswalk nearby, which felt unsafe—especially with kids.Additionally, there is major construction right on the beach where a hotel is being built. Construction machinery starts working around 6:00 AM, creating significant noise early in the morning.We arrived in the evening, but the conditions were so uncomfortable that we spent hours on the phone with VRBO and the host. In the end, we had to leave early the next morning.We originally booked 5 nights, but the host only agreed to a 50% refund.It’s very disappointing to have such an experience during what was supposed to be a relaxing vacation.
