We loved the house! Everything was beautifully curated! We would have loved for the yard to have been mowed because our kids really wanted to use the backyard. Overall, an incredible house with plenty to do all around, and SO close to the beach! Will absolutely stay again.

The house is amazing. Perfect stay, they have everything you need in the house. Host is quick to respond to any messages and needs you have. We stayed for new years and downtown was crazy but you come back to the house and it’s so peaceful. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.

This is an amazing property!! The owners thought of everything! Wish we could have stayed more nights, but we were in St Augustine for only two days. Immaculate and comfortable for all 6 of us. We will definitely stay again if the opportunity arises!! Thank you Jon and Lola!
We really enjoyed our stay here! The house is absolutely gorgeous and such a comfortable space. Super clean and cozy and had everything we needed. My kids loved the nook under the stairs for reading and playing games. Really appreciated the host communicating with me quickly and efficiently. We hope to stay here again next time we visit St. Augustine!

In a tight neighborhood but the property and house itself was spectacular! Spacious, clean, essentials were easy it find and use. Bedrooms were comfortable. Backyard was a cool, private, cozy place to hang out. We had a very comfortable stay. Communicating with owners was great. They are very helpful and respond quickly.

We went for the Nights of Lights and this home accommodated us perfectly. The home itself is stunning. So well built and decorated! They thought of everything and labeled it all clearly. The backyard was great! Loved that they kept it decorated for Christmas into January. We took some beautiful family pictures. Would highly recommend!
Incredibly thoughtful. Everything you could ask for.
I’ve stayed at several 5 star rentals but none so thought through. Amazing that nothing you could ask for was omitted. There was even an evacuation map of the house posted! I highly recommend this home. The beds were very comfortable, the house light filled yet private. We enjoyed the Starbucks keurig coffee and appreciated the recommendations of what to do and where to eat. I give this home 5.5 stars.
