About this property

Walk to Jax Beach · Pet-Friendly, Fenced Yard, Bikes · Near Mayo Clinic

Half a mile to the sand in Jacksonville Beach: a 10-minute walk or a 3-minute bike ride. This remodeled 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath townhome has a fully fenced, pet-friendly backyard, a gas fire pit, and a full kit of beach gear, including bikes and helmets, chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, a cooler, and a wagon to haul it all.

THE SPACE
• Downstairs: living room with a 65" 4K smart TV and a sleeper sofa. The kitchen has stone counters and stainless appliances, with a pass-through to the dining area. There's also a half bath and a laundry room with a washer, dryer, and detergent.
• Upstairs: two queen bedrooms, each with a 4K smart TV (Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, Disney+), and a full bathroom.
• Fully stocked kitchen: coffee maker, French press, grinder, toaster, blender, microwave, cookware, bakeware, dishes for 12, plus oil, spices, and condiments.
• Fast Wi-Fi (250+ Mbps), good for remote work.
• Outside: private fenced backyard with patio dining, a grill, and a gas fire pit.

GOOD TO KNOW
• Sleeps 6 (city limit). Infants under 2 don't count and are welcome. Baby gates are on the stairs, and local rental companies can deliver cribs and high chairs.
• Pets welcome: up to 2 dogs or cats, 25 lbs max each. A pet fee applies.
• Driveway parking for 3 cars, plus first-come street parking around the corner.
• Quiet residential street, so no parties or events. Cookouts and dinners outside are welcome.
• One exterior camera faces the driveway and records video and audio.
• Self check-in with a door code. Our local contact, Jacky, is nearby if anything comes up.

THE LOCATION
• Beach: a 10-minute walk. Expect sunrise coffee on the sand, a wide flat beach for walking, biking, and surfing, and the occasional dolphin.
• Walk to coffee on 3rd Ave, breakfast at Tulua Bistro (10 min), and Jax Beach restaurants, bars, the pier, and summer festivals without having to pay for parking.
• Publix, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Target are a few minutes away by car.
• Mayo Clinic is a 10–15 minute drive, which makes this a comfortable base for appointments and longer stays.
• TPC Sawgrass, home of THE PLAYERS, is about 20 minutes away.
• Nearby: Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park, Mayport (famous for fresh shrimp), Atlantic Beach, and Adventure Landing. St. Augustine and Amelia Island are each under an hour away.
• The free Beach Buggy electric shuttle (download the app) runs Thursday through Sunday evenings around the Beaches. You can also have a street-legal golf cart delivered.

Check-in 4 PM, check-out 11 AM. Hurricane season runs June through November, so we recommend cancel-for-any-reason travel insurance.

This townhome was great, nicely renovated and lovely coastal decor. Loved the living area downstairs and bedrooms upstairs. The kitchen was well appointed and a nice big screen tv in the living room. Great location for us! Our son, his wife and their son live less than a mile away, we were there to baby sit our grandson for the week. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, close to the beach and shopping area. Very easy to find. Clean home equipped with everything you need. Beds were comfortable. Fenced in back area for pets. I would not suggest leaving out pet food for more than 15 minutes due to ants. I lived in Jacksonville for many years and can tell you that ants are pretty much everywhere you go. I did notice there were ant baits provided in the home to help with this which was nice.

Cozy duplex 10min to beach

The duplex was very clean and the beds were comfortable! The outside shower was amazing and the kids enjoyed having s’mores by the fire pit! The AC worked well (but was very loud in the first bedroom!). Overall a great stay!

Overall, this is a great property in an excellent location. We have family in Jacksonville we visit about once per year. This is the first time we used a VRBO rental in Jax since we were staying for 2 weeks. After this trip I only want to stay in the Jax Beach area because it has everything close by and this property is very well located to enjoy it all. Minor issues were that the A/C system went out, but that was fixed within 24 hours and the host had a portable a/c on site so we didn't suffer much. Also, we had our 2 dogs with us and there was a constant stream of cats visiting the yard, so that added some stress to the trip. Overall the house is great with only a few maintenance items noted. I would recommend this house for other travelers and would definitely stay here again.

Great location, convenient to the Mayo Clinic and the beach. Nice backyard with a fire pit. Easy check-in with keyless entry. Loved the decoration but somethings are worn and not as nice in person as the pictures. Beds were decent but pillows are not comfortable and neither is the couch. The kitchen had all the essentials. There was plenty of extra paper products and trash bags but only one towel was left in the linen closet for 2 people staying 5 days. We ended up getting a few cheap ones from Target to be able to shower. Overall a good stay.

Jax Beach Visit

Cleanliness and communication with the Host were very good. We appreciated having a fenced backyard, since we traveled with a dog. Unit is close to the beach and other Jax Beach fun. Due to the weather we could not use the fire pit or outside shower as we would have liked to. Both very cool amenities. Nice place.

Great stay! Wonderful VRBO that is fully equipped with anything you may need, even a sewing kit! Easy drive, bike ride to the beach near food. Clean and beautifully decorated. Super cute backyard, the laundry room is even super cute!! Only thing missing was a towel rack or something to hang beach towels and bathing suits on to dry overnight outside. Other than that it was perfect and probably our best stay at a VRBO.

Small and Cute Townhouse

This small, cute, townhouse was great for a small family or for a couple. The property owners/manager needs to do a better job of yard maintenance and cleaning-up junk in the yard. Also, there is a colony of feral cats that live next door, so if you have a dog, there could be issues.

Great place and close to the beach.

My sister, Golden Retriever and I enjoyed a wonderful time at this property during the off season. We were just a few blocks from the beach and loved the fact that the property had bikes. A super plus for anyone staying during peak season since there is not a lot of beach access parking. There is also a nice wagon if you need to walk and bring beach stuff with you. We rode the bikes and watched two sun rises and rode to Jimmy John's for lunch. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was equipped enough that we made breakfast and dinner quite a few times. Everything is close by that you need for shopping. The backyard was great to relax at in the evenings. I VRBO alot and we will definitely enjoy this place again.

Two night weekend at the beach.

Brought both of our two year old Doberman dags to the beach for the weekend. Jax beach was a short 10 to 15 minute walk with the dogs in the evening. Then mext day we drove up to Amelia island and beached all day. The house was close enoigh to the beach but depending on daily traffic, crossing the main A1a street may be struggle with cross walks few and far between. The neighborhood was clean and quiet and the hoise was perfect. Would have been big enough if wed have brought 4 more people. The oitdoor area and backyard was perfect to hang out and let the dogs run and explore the plants.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Castellanos

Host profile image
We're Angela and Mike, from Seal Beach. My family visited Jax beach one time and knew we would want our second home to be there. Hopefully one day we can move permanently to Jax beach after our children get into college. While we live in California, we prefer the beaches at Jax Beach and fell in love with the people and the area. We are like-minded Floridians and feel we belong. We hope you love our house as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

When we heard this house on the market, we knew this was the right house for us. It suited my taste and personality and love how close it to the beach and the back yard sealed the deal. We really enjoyed spending time remodeling this property with my family getting this gem ready for your visit.

What makes this property unique

The proximity to the beach and downtown restaurants makes this property in a quiet neighborhood a perfect getaway.
