A last piece of undeveloped coastal Florida awaits you here as you perch yourself above the ocean. Love the wood and the views are the best you will find along the entire east coast.

Peaceful - Magical

If you love the ocean, this is the place for you. When the tide rushes out, the beach expands 20 fold. You can enjoy sandbar walks or lounge in the tide pools. The house is comfortable, charming, whimsical and in a perfect location. This was our fourth stay at this wonderful rental.

Such an Incredible Experience! Me & GF celebrated our 7th anniversary! And we had a blast. We intended to visit St Augustine & the Matanzas Monument. But was enjoying the beach and peace & quiet so much, we hardly left the house. Not to mention all the cool shells we found on the beach. Tip: go early morning, right when the little pockets start forming! Highly Recommend

Relaxation with a scenic view

It was the perfect getaway. It was beautifully decorated. It had the most cutest kitchen, Crystal knobs, it reminded me of a small, comfortable cabin, surrounded by the beach. I loved the fact that we were able to bring our fur babies with us. We all enjoyed the beautiful beach,sun, and sea life that surrounded us.

Penthouse

This large one room penthouse is situated on top of the beach and Mantazas inlet. I have never been this close to the water.! Perfect location. The owner was very responsive to our needs. It felt like our bed was riding the waves! I highly recommend.

The views are simply unforgettable, the scenery was breathtaking at every hour of the day. There is something incredibly restorative about being so close to the ocean, with nothing but sand, sea, sky, and nature stretching before you.This is more than just a rental house—it’s a sanctuary. If you’re looking for a peaceful, luxurious, and utterly beautiful beachfront getaway, this property exceeds every expectation.

We had such an amazing time!! This place is a gem. The location is amazing and there was so much nature exploring in the area that we wish we didn’t have to leave. This area of the coast is so beautiful and pristine. The property was just what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of our busy lives. The decor was beachy and lovely… so eclectic and beautifully random. The porch swings were our favorite sunrise spot. The views cannot be beat! Our dog loved it and we felt at home from the time we entered…. We will certainly be back!!🥰

Beautiful spot

Beautiful spot with right where Matanzas Inlet meets Atlantic. Fantastic view of both from the penthouse, and the interior is eclectic and comfortable. We decided to leave three days early with hurricane Nicole bearing down on area…which was a disappointment. However, we would not hesitate again to renting this wonderful beach house.

Great location, beautiful views

Our stay was everything we were hoping for and more. We live locally but wanted to be on the beach for our anniversary week (stay vacation). Beautiful views, clean, pet friendly, comfortable and relaxing. Hope to stay again next year.

Beautiful, pet friendly location

The penthouse location and view were exactly as described in the listing. Incredible views from the living area and east facing balcony was perfect to sit and watch the waves in the evenings without melting from the heat. We travel with our two Labradors and the pet friendly room and beach were a great find. The semi-private beach was great and everyone there was very respectful of each other while exercising their pets. Only hiccup we had was we couldn't not seem to get the lock box open to get our key at check-in. Luckily the downstairs tenants were able to contact the host to let him know and he was able to help identify that we were given the wrong code and provided the correct code for our key. The room had everything we needed to cook dinners in and plenty of space.

Breathtaking!

From the moment you arrive and walk in to the penthouse it’s stunning. Absolutely beautiful view from every spot in the house. We loved it and were very depressed to leave such beauty and come back to St. Louis which noes not look like we were. My only complaint was we didn’t have enough dishes or stuff to do seafood so I had to buy everything for my crab legs. We ate there a lot though because we had our dog and enjoyed cooking and eating on the deck watching the beautiful view. You won’t be disappointed if you rent this spot. It was absolutely perfect and we will be back someday.

Fabulous Trip

This place will entice your senses. The color of the water and the sand, the fresh smell of the breeze, and the sound of the surf are mesmerizing. The personality of the house and the personality of the ocean at this very spot combine to make this a truly remarkable and enchanting place. We loved it.
