PACK YOUR SUITCASES because you won’t need anything else - this place has everything for a long stay for a group. Lots of dishes, cookware, beach toys, bikes, mats, chairs, boardgames…everything! Quality bath products and lots of linens for a beach stay. House was spotless. Location is the best - bike to Anastasia beach park via trail behind the house or access on San Jose Street. Grocery, shops, and restaurants around the corner. Host is very responsive to inquiries. Neighborhood is super cute and quiet. Will definitely stay here in the future.

Beautiful home - close to everything

My family enjoyed staying at Skip & Lisa's beautiful rental home. They thought of everything from providing comfortable beds and a fully stocked kitchen to bikes we could ride through their quiet, cozy neighborhood.. Our check in was easy and they even left recommendations on their favorite beach spots. We will definitely stay here again. We highly recommend!!

Lisa is a 5-Star host. She is a great communicator, always timely in responses to any questions. Lisa also provides great information on the things to see and do in the St. Augustine area, which is very helpful.The house is beautiful, super clean and stocked with everything you need, including bicycles and items for the beach. The neighborhood is very nice and peaceful. The Anastasia State Park in right out the back door. It is so calming to sit on the lanai with a drink and listen to the many different birds.This was an awesome trip for us. We would strongly recommend this property to anyone, from just couples to families!

Great Find!

Visited St Augustine with my wife, two dogs, and elderly parents. This home is beautifully renovated and very clean, located in a very nice, quiet neighborhood close to both the beach and historic downtown. Couldn't have asked for a better location. The hosts were very quick to reply to any of my questions. Would stay here again!

Above and beyond our expectations!

This house has everything you need to enjoy your stay in St. Augustine. Skip and Lisa have went above and beyond to think of everything. I felt right at home with all the essentials and they thought of lots of extras to make our stay comfortable. This house is beautiful! It has a lot of comfortable seating and the lanai was a great place to enjoy coffee and have a relaxing morning. The neighborhood is very peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed using the grill for a family cookout. The beach is nice and close and the beach chairs and towels were provided! Lisa was quick to communicate and was so kind! I can't say enough about how great this property is. I hope we'll be back in STA and able to stay again.

The perfect stay in St Augustine! 5 stars!

My immediate family traveled down to visit my aunt and cousins, to celebrate my mothers 65th birthday. I could not have asked for a better place! The property was clean, beautifully designed, had tons of information about the area and local things to do which made our trip so enjoyable. This vrbo had everything you would need for a comfortable stay. The small details such as bathrooms with make-up mirrors and towels, shampoo conditioner and body wash, desks in each bedroom, comfortable beds with clean soft linens, full length mirrors, bicycles, numerous board games, and a fully stocked kitchen with beautiful appliances made for a great place to come back to after a day of exploring. Lisa and Skip were also easy to communicate with and helped answer any questions we had very quickly! They were great and friendly hosts. They even let us check in a little early and check out a little later given our flight times. We definitely plan to come back and stay here during our next family visit. I would give this property a 5 star rating and I highly recommend staying here!!!

Incredible Stay at La Villa Chilla in St. Augustine!!

What an incredible stay at La Villa Chilla in St. Augustine. The home was meticulously cleaned and maintained, which immediately put my mind at ease. You could tell that the owner took great pride in ensuring that every nook and cranny was spotless. The interior of the home was amazing. It was beautifully decorated, and attention to detail was evident. The home has a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The beds were incredibly comfortable. We all slept like babies and then enjoyed coffee on the screened in lanai in the mornings. The location of the home can’t be beat. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet, but the icing on the cake was that Anastasia State Park and its g beach gorgeous were right behind the house. What's more, the convenience of being able to walk to the amphitheater and having access to bikes provided by the owner added an extra layer of enjoyment to my trip. It allowed me to explore the area at my own pace and truly immerse myself in the local culture. Speaking of the owner, Lisa was super friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful. She went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was perfect. Her hospitality was top-notch. I highly recommend this property. I'm already looking at my calendar to book my return trip because this experience was nothing short of fantastic.

My husband and I rented this house because it was close to the Amp and we were going to a concert. The house was amazing and it is exactly as described. Lisa and Skip are spectacular hosts, providing every comfort you might want and the home is in a super convenient location; close to downtown, close to the AMP and close to the beach. Lisa I want to know who your decorator is, the house was so cute! We will definitely be back to stay at this location again. Thanks for everything - Jenn
