Great short getaway, Super clean and the host went out of their way to make it special.Had everything we needed, including peace, quiet and great views.
Everything was wonderful. Great location close to everything . Would highly recommend. Very clean and thoughtful touch of fresh flowers. Full kitchen with everything you need. Will stay again when visiting the area.
The home met all of my expectations. The level of detail and thought to the furnishings left nothing to be desired. The view was hands down the best I have seen in a long time. The host was readily available yet completely unobtrusive. Don’t hesitate to book this home.
We have stayed at many VBRO homes over the years. Including others on the water in Saint Augustine. For us, this will forever be our first choice. We seriously could write 3 paragraphs on how perfect it is! From the amazing location, to how clean it is, to the overall charm & commitment to details it has … it makes you feel like it’s truly your home away from home.We hope that the owner continues to allow for it to be a vacation rental for many years to come, because we can’t imagine staying anywhere else when we visit the area.

The view of old town and Bridge of Lions from the deck was priceless! We decided not to brave the crowds for light up St. Augustine since the view from the rental was so spectacular. A quick walk across the bridge and your in downtown without all the traffic and parking issues.
We’ve stayed at this property twice now and plan to again next time we need a rental in St Augustine. Clean, great location, beautiful view and comfortable beds/furniture. We boated down and kept our boat at the marina three doors down from the house. Highly recommend.
Nice place to stay with a bit of walk to downtown if you want to spend time in historic St.Augustine.
Owner is super fast to reply to messages.
In fact probably the fastest I have ever seen , and we travel a lot .
Highly recommended.
What a spectacular place! West facing for historic district, Bridge of Lions and sunset views. Hip and stocked with any and everything you could need. Responsive and friendly communication. Bed is so comfortable!
Loved it 😍
Couple in 30s with in laws in their 60s - we opened the doors and it felt so cozy and welcoming with music playing. Nice little touches throughout the house. Loved all the plants and decor. The location is perfect! Nice little walk over the Lions Bridge to all the hustle and bustle. Is a perfect spot for 2 couples looking to relax! Would and will stay here again!
We have been staying at vacation rentals for well over 10 years and this was one of the best homes we have every stayed at. So many wonderful things to say about our stay! The house was super clean, decorated and stocked with so many thoughtful and useful items. So much attention to detail, fresh flowers, chocolates, robes, plus everything you could need to have a comfortable stay. The view and back patio was perfect, with something new to see everyday … from local shrimp boats, super yachts, tall sailing ships to daily visits from white herons and pelicans. The patio has comfortable, new seating and is surrounded by beautiful flowers and trees. Location is perfect for visiting everything that St. Augustine has to offer, less than a mile to all of the downtown shops, restaurants and attractions, close to beaches, grocery stores, fishing pier, etc. We would highly recommend this amazing home, and hope to have the opportunity to stay again in the near future!
This place was amazing with spectacular views of the bay & Lions Bridge. A short drive to the downtown restaurants & a variety of shops. The home was comfy, fully stocked w/ spices, coffee samples, pots-pans-utensils, cozy blankets & beach towels, washer & dryer w/ detergent, & watermelon shampoo...just loved the extras . The beds were comfy & plenty of room to put your things. Very clean & we felt right at home. The owners were very helpful w/ recommending local activities, &responded to any questions we had instantly. They made our vacation special with all the extras ( the little things)!
We love this property so much this was our 2nd time staying. Beautiful well appointed property. Perfect for 1 or 2 couples. Easy walk across the bridge to all the restaurants, bars, and sights. The back porch is absolutely amazing, so fun and relaxing to watch the boats go by. Neighborhood is super quiet and beautiful!
We loved staying at this property. The location is so peaceful with beautiful views across the water, stunning sunsets await guests, and there is a simple wall across the bridge in to the Horta centre of St Augustine. Lots of decent coffee shops and other places in walking distance too. Fantastic for a break.
Everything about this property is A+, from the house itself to the location to the amenities the owner provides. You'll get fresh flowers, chocolates, and music and lights on when you arrive. All is quality, from the bed linens to the bathroom towels and toiletries (even terry robes!) to all of the kitchen accessories. It sets a pretty high bar for any other rental.
This home is stunning on the water and very clean! The owner was in communication constantly during the stay to check in on us and very helpful for suggestions on places to go and things to do!
Will for sure stay again!
This is a gorgeous and wonderful property. Our weekend got rained out, but the property was worth just chilling in. Owners were super nice. Great place.
