THE SKINNY: This historic beachy bungalow is the downstairs 1 bedroom apt of a duplex situated just a hair off the beach, and very close to tall of prime Vilano Beach's offerings! The funky fun decor and colors of this apt make for a unique vacation experience! The covered back balcony with seating and grill provides the perfect shady break from the afternoon heat. Just a few minutes drive from downtown, this is a perfect location for enjoying the best of both worlds St. Augustine has to offer - the beach and the historic town! Enjoy your coffee on the balcony in the shade, load up and head down to the beach, have a drink at Beaches Restaurant on the intracoastal waterway or snuggle up in the comfy King size bed and enjoy a day of relaxation inside!

THE PROXIMITY: Central to downtown, uptown, Ponte Vedra and US Highway 1 which takes you to all parts of St. Augustine quickly for shopping, eating and seeing other areas of the city! The walkability of this home to shops, groceries, restaurants and the beach is excellent!

AMENITIES: Pergola patio with seating and lights (shared with Unit B). Private screened patio with seating and grill. We provide starter coffee supplies.

LAUNDRY FACILITIES: On the exterior of the house at the base of the stairs that go up to Unit B's front door is a red shed door with a stackable washer and dryer inside.

PARKING: There is one parking space per unit on the property. Please use only one space and leave the other space open for the other unit's guests. Our parking area is fenced in on 3 sides and only big enough to allow 2 cars side by side. You will see stained glass and mosaic artwork of sea turtles and jellyfish hung up on the fence in our parking area. If you do not see those, you are in the wrong area. NO parking within the neighborhood/complex of homes to the north of our property. You will be towed. There is no other parking provided. Other cars must be parked at the Publix.

HISTORIC DOWNTOWN ST. AUGUSTINE: Just a 5 minute drive west to San Marco Ave and south is historic downtown St. Augustine!

BEACHSIDE FUN IN THE SUN: Our beaches are unparalleled! We really know how to enjoy what nature has blessed us with here in our quaint little St. Augustine Beach. This home is situated in prime Vilano Beach. You can also drive to one of the public beach accesses on St. Augustine Beach about 25 minutes away to park and walk on.

Deep sea fishing charters and boat rentals are also available in multiple places throughout town. Delivery bike rentals available via a local company. Contact me for recommendations.

*SECURITY DEPOSIT: In lieu of a traditional security deposit charge or authorization hold for a large sum, we will instead charge a one-time non-refundable incidentals fee to your stay of $49 This fee acts as insurance for minor damages and covers you up to a max of $500 of damage. You may elect to increase your incidentals fee for more coverage ($99 for $1000, $149 for $1500, $199 for $2000 and so on and so forth). *IMPORTANT: Guests must report to us any damage that has taken place during their stay before checkout, otherwise the incidental fee coverage is null and void. In this case, we reserve the right to charge the full amount of repairing or replacing the damaged items to you. Your insurance coverage amount ($500, $1000, $1500, etc) is not the max that you are responsible for. If damages exist beyond your coverage amount we will document this with photos and professional estimates of repair, and bill you for the repairs or replacements.
