The Space:
THE SKINNY:
This seaside escape in Vilano Beach is a one level 3 bedroom home, hiding a beautiful Bali inspired backyard oasis complete with sparkling blue pool and sun loungers. Just a 5-7 minute walk to the beach access (4 blocks) which allows you across Coastal Highway and on to the sand in the presence of the beautiful blue waves! A custom luxury bamboo outdoor shower awaits you to rinse off after a balmy beach day before taking a dip in the sparkling pool. The pool is heated to 84 degrees Nov 1st to April 1st. Sunshine filters through the trees all day on the pool patio, just off the kitchen and living space. Enjoy your coffee in the shade under the covered porch on the comfy lounge set while catching up on your favorite programs on the outdoor TV or fancy a drink in the sun on one of the loungers or with your toes in the pool!

The propane BBQ is a under the covered patio so rain or shine, an at-home dinner can be handled without stress :) Step out into the backyard's tropical cove and get cozy by the wood burning fire pit. Downtown St. Augustine's historic district is a quick drive south and over the Usina Bridge. There you can partake in this city's deep roots, food and beverage scene, as well as tours galore! The boat ramp could not be more convenient. Just a block and a half away, feel free to bring along all the toys! Boats, jet ski, you name it! Drop in and have a day of adventure on the water checking out all that St. Augustine has to offer!

THE PROXIMITY: Just minutes walk to the beach and the boat ramp. Only a 10 minute drive south to historic downtown St. Augustine or 20 minutes drive north to Ponte Vedra for amazing golfing, shopping and dining! A 5 minute drive south takes you down to prime Vilano Beach with restaurants, shopping and a Publix grocery store, plus the main Vilano beach access.

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 $149. This fee is insurance for minor damages and covers you up to a max of $1500 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.
