Living the DREAM

We are currently touring Florida from the UK & we came across this amazing property . The hosts were so attentive & the property has everything we could possibly need & more. The Home is in a perfect location close to the beach and Saint Augustine. Spotlessly clean comfortable and full of thoughtful extras. The pool, hot tub, sauna and game spaces made it feel like a private resort. It’s better than the photos —we will definitely stay again.

Coast + Palms

We couldn’t have loved our stay more! The amenities of this home are what truly makes it stand out from the rest. We enjoyed early morning golf cart rides to watch the sunrise. Lounging by the pool during the day and the spa in the evenings. The hosts are incredible and go out of their way to ensure every need is met. They have thought of every detail and prepared the home so you feel right at home. We originally planned to try local places to dine but loved being at the home so much, we made our own meals and just enjoyed relaxing poolside or on the patio to dine! Don’t book anywhere else than Coast + Palms for your trip to Vilano/St Augustine. We are already planning our trip back!

The house is absolutely gorgeous with every single thing you could possibly need. It is actually even better in person. We are especially glad we rented the golf cart for Beach excursions and to get to the 3 restaurants close to the property. I would wait to purchase anything you think you may need because the house is completely stocked and every item is labeled. With two refrigerators and multiple ice makers, there is everything you may need. The hosts are awesome and responded to everything we needed including the hand vac. Literally the only thing you may need would we regular beach towels for the pool. The ones on property are great for the beach because they are thin and shed the sand but not great for drying off and wrapping around the little ones so they won’t drip water in the house. I can honestly say this was the best rental we have ever had and we have our own lol. We will be back next year!

Thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful review. It truly means a lot—especially coming from someone who owns rentals themselves! We’re so glad to hear the home exceeded expectations. We work hard to keep the house well stocked, organized, and labeled so guests can settle in easily, so your comments were especially appreciated. Most of all, we’re thrilled this was your best rental experience, and we look forward to welcoming you back next year!

About the host

Hosted by Derek & Tabitha Johnson

Host profile image
Hi! We’re Derek and Tabitha, and we live just up the coast in Jacksonville, Florida. We love spending time by the water — boating, paddle boarding, and soaking up the Florida sunshine. Hosting this home is such a joy for us because we get to share our love of Vilano Beach and St. Augustine with other families and couples. We’ve put a lot of thought into every detail so you can relax, reconnect, and make amazing memories. We take pride in keeping the house sparkling clean, well-stocked, and guest-ready, and we’re always just a message away if you need anything during your stay!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Vilano Beach because it offers the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. The neighborhood feels tucked away and peaceful, but you’re only minutes from historic downtown St. Augustine with its amazing restaurants, live music, and charming streets. We love that you can walk to the beach for sunrise, stroll to the river for sunset, or hop on bikes (or our awesome golf cart, "Max,") and explore local restaurants. The community is friendly, safe, and feels like a true beach town escape — it’s the kind of place where neighbors wave and kids ride bikes after dinner. It’s our happy place, and we love sharing it with guests!

What makes this property unique

This isn’t just a beach rental — it’s your private coastal retreat. Located just two blocks from the ocean and one block from the river, Coast & Palms is designed for relaxation, fun, and effortless vacation living.

Spend your days enjoying the heated saltwater pool, hot tub, and outdoor barrel sauna, or explore the area in our maxed-out 6-person golf cart. We also provide plenty of beach gear so you can pack lighter and enjoy more.

Staying in? You’ll love the fully stocked kitchen, gas stove, and the outdoor entertaining area featuring a slushy machine, pop-up bar window, outdoor mini fridge, and high-end Bull propane grill — all just steps from the pool and hot tub.

With thoughtful touches, comfortable beds, and a spotless, well-stocked home, Coast & Palms makes it easy to settle in, unwind, and make the most of your stay.
