Family Reunion Stay

Overall the impressions of the property was very enjoyable and very close to everything we needed, in our home away from home. The backyard was perfect for our furry family member. We were very thankful for the beach buggy and accessories in the outside beach box. The house was just beautiful and we would love to stay here again.

All good things

We had a great stay at Candy's property. It was nicely decorated, clean and had plenty of space. Though the weather didn't cooperate for our vacation, the property was only a short walk to the beach, and a quick drive into St. Augustine.

Galand/Good Vacation

We very much enjoyed our stay in the Sandbox. The home was very clean and well appointed. It was very spacious for our family of seven and was an easy and short walk to the beach. We enjoyed the back porch especially in the early mornings and as shelter when we got stuck in the rain on the way back from the beach. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us, we would definitely stay again.

Comfortable house

This house is lovely! It is located within a 5 minute walk to the beach. There is a wagon available to use to carry beach chairs and umbrella. Master bed was very comfortable. House was very clean and included extras such as puzzles, games, books, blender, coffee pot and keurig machine. The house is decorated so nice and the back porch was very comfortable! We would love to stay here again!

Great property close to the beach. Perfect for families with little ones. Centrally located. The property manager was wonderful to work with. She answered promptly, and helped us navigate the incoming hurricane. Highly recommend this stay. We definitely will be back!
