About the host
Hosted by Sara Galloway
We fell in love with St. Augustine’s beaches and historic charm as kids and made our dream come true by relocating here in 2012. Now longtime locals, we enjoy sharing everything we love about St. Augustine, Crescent Beach, and the surrounding coastal area. We work in communication—one as an American Sign Language professor and the other as a Speech-Language Pathologist—and we are passionate about hosting families, snowbirds, and beach-loving travelers. As hosts, we’re excited to share our favorite restaurants, beach spots, and hidden gems with guests staying in our family-friendly, pet-friendly St. Augustine vacation homes.
Why they chose this property
We love this neighborhood because it has the peaceful, laid-back feel that St. Augustine is known for, but it’s still only a short drive to Crescent Beach, St. Augustine Beach, and all the attractions downtown. The half-acre lot gives the home plenty of privacy and outdoor space, which is rare this close to the coast. One of our favorite things about the neighborhood is how perfectly the house fits into it—spacious rooms, an open layout, a private pool deck, a large game room, and plenty of indoor/outdoor space for families and friends to gather. It’s the kind of place where you can spend the day at the beach, come home to swim, grill out, play pool, or relax in the entertainment room without ever feeling crowded.
What makes this property unique
Our property stands out because it offers the best of both worlds—a peaceful, spacious setting in a quiet neighborhood, yet only a short drive to Crescent Beach, St. Augustine Beach, and historic downtown St. Augustine. The home sits on a rare half-acre lot with a private heated pool, fenced yard, entertainment room, full game room, and plenty of space for families, groups, and pets. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the beauty of Florida’s coast while having a truly comfortable, private retreat to come home to.
