Welcome to our luxurious mid-century modern beach home, where sleek design meets unforgettable oceanfront living. With rare direct beach access—just seven steps from the deck to the sand—you’ll enjoy sweeping ocean views, breathtaking sunrises, and a dynamic stretch of Matanzas Inlet. Spanning three light-filled levels, the home comfortably sleeps 8 and features premium finishes, a fully stocked kitchen, and thoughtful details like quality beach gear and kid-friendly amenities. Just a short drive from historic St. Augustine, it’s the perfect coastal retreat to relax, recharge, and create lasting memories.

About the host

Hosted by Chad Civetti

Host profile image
Originally from western Massachusetts, I’ve called Florida home since 2007. As an airline pilot, I’ve been fortunate to travel the world and see its beauty—but Matanzas Inlet Beach will always be one of my favorite places. My wife and I are excited to share our oceanfront home so you can experience this hidden gem of Florida for yourself.

Why they chose this property

This is truly the most dynamic beach I’ve ever experienced. The energy comes from the inlet and ocean meeting, creating something new every day. At low tide, tidal pools form—perfect for kids to safely explore and play. The beach itself is ever-changing, stretching from 60 feet wide to nearly 900 feet wide depending on the tide.

What makes this property unique

Our home is truly oceanfront—just seven steps from the deck to the sand. You’ll wake up to incredible sunrises, unwind with breathtaking sunsets, and enjoy front-row views of the ever-changing inlet. It’s a one-of-a-kind setting that creates unforgettable memories.
