Lion’s Sail: Island Oasis w/ Pool near Downtown & Beach

Welcome to Lion’s Sail — Your Peaceful Island Getaway between the Beaches and Historic Downtown St. Augustine

Nestled in the coveted Davis Shores neighborhood of St. Augustine, Lion’s Sail invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and embrace island time.

This picturesque community—lined with towering oak trees, friendly neighbors, and meandering sidewalks perfect for evening strolls or bike rides—offers the best of both worlds.

You’re bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Intracoastal Waterway on the other, with beautiful beaches and historic downtown just moments away.

Explore & Indulge:

Spend your mornings wandering centuries-old cobblestone streets, where horse-drawn carriages still echo the charm of days gone by.
Discover local art galleries, unique boutiques, and incredible restaurants, each one tempting you with delicious aromas drifting into the streets.

Relax & Reconnect:

When the day winds down, leave the bustle behind and return to your private oasis at Lion’s Sail.
Sip cocktails by the sparkling pool
Fire up the backyard barbecue
Or simply unwind beneath the oak canopy, letting the salty sea breeze wash your worries away.
Inside, the home is pristine yet cozy — open, light-filled, and designed for both comfort and calm.

The fenced backyard offers total privacy for lounging, playing, or cooling off in the cocktail pool.

Whether you’re here for adventure or relaxation, Lion’s Sail offers a slice of island paradise you’ll never forget.

Beautiful property and located exactly where we wanted to be! The pool was such a nice thing to have to keep the kids busy in between activities! I wish we would’ve had some way of cleaning the pool or someone to come clean it every couple of days. We used the skimmer the best we could but it really needed vacuuming. Overall a great experience and wonderful stay!

Perfect stay in St Augustine/Anastasia!

We had a wonderful family reunion, vacation at Lion’s Sail. The location is great with quick access to downtown St Augustine, Anastasia State Park and the lighthouse.

Perfect Location

Very nice house with a lot of room for a big family. Awesome location close to downtown and the beach. Pool is very small however it works good for small children. Only negative was the yard was not mowed. Called first day and told them grass was high and no one ever called me back. Overall…great home and location.

Beautiful house and nice neighborhood

We really enjoyed the house, nice and clean and well equipped specially the kitchen, nice patio, and we liked that it was pet friendly, just make sure you informed the property manager at the moment of the reservation about the pets you are taking because if you don’t do it on time they will charge you double the pet fee, that was our case 😫, but overall the house and location is excellent!

Quick getaway

My business partner and I decided to have a meeting and bring our families along. The house was great, we had ample room and were able to bring our dog as well. Place was comfortable enough to have my family and my business partner”s family over for pizza and conversation. Proximity to all of the sites was great, Less than 4 miles to most areas we wanted to see such as the fort, the lighthouse, the beach and old downtown. Would stay again in the future.
