About this property

Elegant, FREE BIKES dog-friendly downtown apart.

This huge pet-friendly apartment in a beautiful historic house is located only two blocks from the heart of the Old Town and is sanitized between all guests . You will love the first floor spacious bedroom with a very comfortable king-size bed, sofa, and access to the back yard, as well as the large and elegant living room and a full kitchen. Borrow our bikes to roam around town. There is one guaranteed parking space. Pet fee is $40 per dog per stay (max of 2 dogs).

This is a wonderful first floor apartment. There is a renovated galley kitchen with ample pots/pans and dishes to do any cooking you might want to. The living room has a queen size sofa bed. The gigantic main bedroom has a very comfortable king size bed with tons of pillows. It has floor-to-ceiling windows and beautiful shutters. You have direct access to the back yard. The huge new bathroom is complete with large tiled shower with glass doors and full-size washer/dryer. All the toiletries are included.

You'll love the front porch - it's where a lot of our guests hang out at the end of the day with a glass of wine. It's nice to be outside once it cools off a bit, and on the weekend, you can hear the music from downtown.

********** We actively encourage our guests to purchase travel insurance.

We will only refund the booking for a hurricane threat if an evacuation is ordered in the area by the State of Florida. We experience threats nearly every other week during hurricane season, that rarely amount to anything.

Contracted Covid? That's why you need to purchase insurance. It will cover your booking reimbursement, and we hope you have a speedy recovery.

Your apartment is completely separate. You enter in the main door, and there are four apartments (two upstairs, two downstairs) in this part of the building. You have free use of the shared back yard, which has picnic tables and other seating, charcoal bbq grills and the shared bicycles, along with a funky pedicab where one of you can bike the spoiled person around. Flashing lights included!

We have a wonderful property manager who is available to answer any questions or provide any missing things. Can't find a corkscrew? Missing facecloths? They're all supposed to be there - just ask and if it's anything we can provide, we will. We want all of our guests to have a five star experience and it all starts by communication! We're also fully available by email or text. It's just that we're traveling too! We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance in case your plans change.

This is an interesting neighborhood. We're located right across the street from Ketterlinus Elementary school, so during recess time, you definitely hear the sound of the children, but it means it's pretty quiet at night. There's not a lot of street noise.

It's fun to sit outside on weekend nights and hear the music from downtown, but you don't hear it in the house.

We're in a neighborhood called Flagler's Model Land. Most of the houses in the neighborhood were built in the 1800's and some are very charming. Most of the area was originally owned by Henry Flagler, who played an important part of the growth of St. Augustine. Flagler College is also just a couple of blocks away.

We're a few minute walk to The Social Lounge and The Barley Republic, if you're looking for a drink. The food at The Barley Republic is very Irish and very tasty. Just a bit further and you get to our absolute favorite restaurant: Thai House & Sushi on Hypolita. Don't let the outside fool you with those ugly orange chairs. The food and the sushi is top notch, creative and delicious. Tell them Lindsey sent you!

We are less than two blocks from a trolley stop next to the Wax Museum, which most visitors to St. Augustine like to use to explore the city.

You are always welcome to park on the street in front of the house if there is room. If there's no parking, you also will have ONE assigned spot behind the property. Directions to the parking will be provided with your check-in instructions.

If you have a second car, we do have overflow parking for possibly one extra car on a first come, first serve basis. Parking permit is required.

For longer trips around, Uber, taxis and pedicabs are readily available.

This is a wonderful old house, but these old houses weren't built with the same soundproofing that houses are now, so you may hear some noise. Events and parties are not allowed as a result. We allow pets, which you need to know if you have severe allergies.

About the host

Hosted by Benoit & Lindsey

Host profile image
We love to travel ourselves, and spend much of our time at other AirBnB properties. We are always finding ideas on how to make the stay for our guests more enjoyable. We travel with our dog, Scout and go all over the world with her, and have now added a Peruvian playmate for her - the crazy Bandido.

Why they chose this property

This property is so well located. We bought this property because we love old homes and we love renovating them. We spent two long years on this house, but the results are worth it. It turned out to be a beautiful home and I'm sure you will enjoy it.

What makes this property unique


The unique part about this home is that you not only have a first class apartment, you can also get outside and enjoy the weather when it's cooler. It includes the use of the back yard with bbq grills and plenty of seating to just hang out. There are first-come, first-serve bicycles that you are welcome to use to explore town during the day. It's so close to walk that we rarely take the bikes ourselves, but it's great to explore farther afield.
