The overall experience was good. The location of the property was a bit tricky to find, especially at night. Very limited pots and pans for cooking. The house was very nice, clean and comfortable. The host was very helpful and accommodating. I would recommend it for family stay.

About the host

Hosted by Maurice Morissette

Host profile image
We live in Saint Augustine, and we absolutely love it here. It's honestly like being on a vacation every day. The beaches here are beautiful, and there is SO much to do. They say people here spend about 70% of their time outside and only 30% inside, and we believe it. When you come to visit St. Augustine, we will do everything we can to make your stay here as comfortable as possible. It's long been our dream to host a vacation home, and now our dream has come true. For this reason, we will always do our best to take good care of our guests while they are here.

Why they chose this property

The Saint Augustine South neighborhood is such a fantastic location. It's quiet, surrounded by shade trees, right next to the Matanzas River, and of course, only a short drive to the beach and all the stores!

What makes this property unique

Under new ownership! Our home was fully remodeled in Nov. 2024, and virtually everything in it is now clean and new! The garden is full of beautiful tropical plants and large trees. We have awesome neighbors here, and it's a super quiet neighborhood. You can even walk to the Matanzas River right from the house! Take a drive or ride your bike down Shore Drive, and you'll quickly see why Saint Augustine South is one of the area's most beautiful neighborhoods.
