- Hurricane season is June through November. We STRONGLY encourage purchasing travel insurance for your trip if your reservation falls within these dates, as we can only refund if there is an official, mandatory evacuation (not a state of emergency) called for the island.
- There are two exterior cameras: one positioned above the front door monitoring the entrance, and another on the exterior stairs with a view of the pool. These cameras are utilized solely for insurance and safety purposes and are not monitored unless a safety concern or neighbor complaint arises.

The optional damage waiver is $48 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional. To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account; it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
- Check out is 10 am promptly, as our home takes a minimum of five hours to clean thoroughly. ***Our cleaners charge $50 for every 15-minute increment after 10 am, and guests will be responsible for paying***

We had a phenomenal time staying in Saint Augustine at this vacation rental. Plenty of space, plenty of room and a heated pool with a hot tub was the top of our list of being awesome! It is a very, very short walk to the beach, which was amazing! The game room in the garage was a huge hit as well, especially when the temperatures were cooler at night

House and location was nice. The reason for 3 stars is due to the beds. They were horrible. Out of 4 beds, only 1 bed slept ok. Everyone was uncomfortable trying to sleep and then hurting the next day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m truly sorry to hear the mattresses weren’t comfortable for your group. We wish we had known during your stay, as we didn’t receive any complaints and would have been happy to look into it right away. For clarity, all four beds have fairly new medium-firmness memory-foam mattresses, and this is the first time we’ve heard concerns about them. Even so, we’ll re-inspect each one to ensure everything is in proper condition. I’m glad to hear the house and location were a good fit otherwise, and we appreciate you letting us know your thoughts.

The listing was one of the best I have stayed at in a long time. When they stated “fully stocked,” they meant it! I’ve stayed at places that were not truly fully stocked and it’s frustrating to find out when you’re going to cook a meal. We had everything we needed though. The living and kitchen area were very comfortable and the open floor plan was perfect for us. There were a couple minor things that came up, but the host was very responsive all weekend and solved any minor issue promptly. Overall, my friends and I had a great relaxing weekend and we would stay here again.

Didn’t want to leave!

We are frequent visitors to St. A. We have stayed in houses, apartments, condos on the beach… and After Hours is officially our favorite place we have stayed. The house, the pool, the amenities, all of it was perfect. We couldn’t have wished for better. In fact, my teenager cried when we left. She didn’t want to leave. It was that wonderful of a vacation for us. Thank you!

The Perfect Getaway

We stayed for 3 wonderful days! Everything was absolute perfection - clean, organized, updated, convenient, adorable! Our kids enjoyed the game room, lots of fun to be had. The open space on the top floor (kitchen - living room) made for relaxing evening where we could all spread out and get comfortable together. The bathroom were well stocked with soaps (a nice surprise!). The kids swam in the pool one day, and it was heated and ready for them. Overall, an absolutely amazing stay!

Nice, large vacation rental conveniently located in Crescent Beach

This is a nice, well-kept vacation rental property that is great for a large group (we were only 4) and about 20 minutes from downtown St. Augustine. Located among homes and condos on the Inland Waterway side of A1A, with ample parking for ~3 cars. 5 min walk across A1A highway to the public dune walkover bridge to the incredible Crescent Beach (wide and long), and 3 min walk to the public boat ramp for the Inland Waterway. A highlight is the fenced-in backyard with saltwater swimming pool and hot tub (although this costs extra to heat). Also a bocce ball court and a wide variety of games. The garage actually has been converted into a game room with pool table/ping pong top and old-style arcade games (although the Pacman never worked properly). Groceries are 10 min away at either Publix or Winn-Dixie. Try Paladar for a very good Cubano sandwich. Llama is an excellent Peruvian restaurant. Smokin D's BBQ. A few caveats: First, despite the two nice outdoor decks, there isn't really much of a view of the Inland Waterway. Could never find the bocce balls to use their nice court. The provided beach wagon, chairs, umbrella, kids toys are great, but don't forget you will still have to carry them over the dune bridge to get to the beach. The one kayak is definitely on the cheap side. And finally, the kitchen sounds a nicer in the description than it actually is, for example, none of the knives were sharp. But overall, I would stay here again, particularly with a large group.

Crescent Beach is a very eclectic local neighborhood! Feel like you are a true part of the St. Augustine community.

The boat ramp is right at the end of the street. Bring your boat and jet ski's along and drop them in just half a block away!!

Locally, we have several rental places where you can stock up on beach and water sports gear. Additionally, there is a service called Drifters that will come to the house to drop off bikes that you can rent at a daily rate.

A close and convenience restaurant a few minutes drive north is one of my all time favorites! - Back 40 A1A! You have to try the Chimmichurri Steak Quesadilla and Jerk Chicken Tacos!
