About this property

Large Pool. Private Beach Path. Vilano Beach House Closest to Historic St. Aug.

1700sq | Master Bedroom: Queen Bed, Pullout Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Loft: Twin Daybed with Twin Trundle

This newly renovated beach-side cottage is nestled within one of Vilano Beach's original seaside neighborhoods. Sand paths meander from the cottage towards the dune-lined beach walk for easy access to the ocean. (You do not have to cross A1A or drive to get to the beach )

Outside the home, you’re sure to feel the cool saltwater breeze while lounging by your private pool! Enjoy refreshing dips in the morning before lounging on the poolside deck. During the day, head to the beach or chill at home and challenge your friends at the regulation-size horseshoe pit and other outdoor games.

Inside this 2-story home, originally constructed in 1943, you’ll find new grey-washed laminate hardwood flooring. Bright colors and tasteful accents of nautical decor boost your mood and help relax the mind. A large L-shaped couch awaits for you to unwind in front of the flat-screen Smart TV with family and friends.

Cook up a new seafood recipe or entertain with ease in the fully equipped kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, quartz counter tops, and a chic breakfast bar with table. Bring the feast outside to the large viewing deck to share while enjoying the beautifully landscaped gardens sprinkled with swaying palm trees.

The downstairs bedroom suite offers a queen bed and a pullout bed that accommodates up to 2 travelers. Upstairs, you’ll find the second and third bedrooms - each with queen beds and their own flat-screen LED Smart TV. Each bedroom has access to an outdoor deck with seating and the bedrooms now have white-noise makers to increase sleeping comfort.

Kids can have their own unique space in the spacious loft that provides a twin bed with twin trundle and small TV with DVD player.

Everyone will be able to stick to his or her morning routine in one of the 2 elegantly designed bathrooms that both boast a double vanity.

Inquire with host for special pricing for longer term bookings.

Publix grocery store and several restaurants within walking distance. Vilano Beach Pier 0.5 Miles. Nature walk across the street. When staying on Vilano beach this beach house has the shortest drive time to get to historic St. Augustine.

We heat the pool October - April. There is no extra charge. Please note, as long as the outside temperature stays above 65 degrees we can keep the pool temperature maintained at 85 degrees. If the temperature drops below 65 degrees the pool temperature will drop proportionately. Please set expectations right. The pool will not feel like a jacuzzi.

There are two security cameras on the property. One is on the south-west corner of the property outside facing the driveway. The other is monitoring the garage. The garage is locked and off limits to guests.

The pool was not 83 degrees like i saw somewhere online. May want to change that. It may have been 73 degrees. I know we went in the cooler months so we were going to expect cooler temps. We did enjoy the pool and beach. We had to warm up in the bathtub. Please check the handle and lock on the second floor bedroom on the pool side that goes out side. The handle needs tightening. We enjoyed the fire pit.We had a great time. Thank you.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Mar 2026
Thank you for the feedback. We try to set good expectations about the pool temps. We've shared in both the listing and check-in instructions that when the overnight low temperatures drop below 65 degrees, the pool temp will be lower than 85 degrees. Additionally we don't charge an extra fee for the pool heat even though it costs quite a bit to keep it running. The pool is large enough the heater can't keep up with the cold temperatures when the nightly temps drop into the 50s like they were during the week you stayed. Glad to hear in spite of the colder temps you enjoyed your stay.

Great host communication! However the photos do not match what you will see in person unless some things are updated and cleaned up. Landscaping around the pool wasn’t kept up. A lot of dead plants. The fire pit area with swing, the horseshoe area and grill needs to be updated as well as patio wood furniture outside the master bedroom. (You cannot sit on it) Not as pictured. I understood this wasn’t a beach front house but know that you will only see a very small partial water view from a window and maybe one spot on porch, if you’re looking for water views as we were and put in our filters when searching for a home close to water. From the third floor loft area, you will need to go through someones bedroom to use the bathroom. There is one bathroom on the second floor for three rooms to use. A lot of holes and patches on the walls..It wasn’t a bad walk to the beach and it was close and convenient to the grocery store and a few restaurants. Also know that you are right on/beside a busy intersection and will hear heavy traffic often. This house maybe good for young people that don’t care about these things. This was our yearly ladies trip. (We’re in our 40’s early 50s) I like to read reviews to know exactly and what it actually is. We only needed John to get the pool cleaned for us and he was responsive and checked on us throughout our stay. Everything else was what is was and I hope they get it done before next travelers stay. Hope this review helps.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 May 2026
Always grateful for feedback about how we can do better. We take action on every reasonable critique. A couple of responses: The uncharacteristic freezing temperatures earlier this year did cause some of our trees and plants to wither. They are coming back but need some time to heal. We're actively working on this. We don't advertise the home as beach front. We don't charge beach front rates. We purposely allow the outdoor wood of the fences, decks and some of the built in benches to become distressed wood. We think it adds to the aesthetic of the property. That's how it's pictured in the photos. A new chair has been ordered to replace the old one on the back deck. As a side note, there are about 14 other chairs/loungers on the patio/deck areas.

fantastic family friendly home

we had the best stay - the listing was exactly as described yet somehow even better in person. proximity to the beach, the grocery store and dining options were all super close and convenient. communication with the owner couldn’t have been better - I think the longest I waited for a response from pre-booking to check out was 30-seconds. perfect location, perfect house for our family, perfect getaway. 10 out 10 would definitely recommend.
