Anne and Michael are wonderful to work with!! They were very helpful and knowledgeable. 100% do the golf cart. It’s a for sure. It was so fun loading up and driving through the neighborhood and down to the beach each day. The beach is perfect for shelling. And everyone there was so friendly! The place was far enough from the downtown traffic but close enough for a quick trip to wherever you needed to go. We will definitely be back!

Amazing Stay
Our stay was perfect! We have traveled multiple times to the area, but were quite impressed with this accommodation. The first thing you notice is how clean the place is, everywhere. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils. That made our stay easier as we ate in most of the trip. The description doesn't give enough credit to the roomy floor plan! We enjoyed both the deck and conservatory for morning breakfasts. A bonus was the baby armadillo that dropped in to check out the yard. For pets the place was perfect. Plenty of room to move about and explore. Another bonus was being able to walk through the neighborhood without excessive traffic. Of course the beach/ocean speaks for itself. Literally across the highway it was an easy walk to enjoy each day. Morning on the deck provided a gentle serenade as waves hit the shore. The location was easy to find, the lodging perfect for our needs, and the hosts were amazing. Thank you for the wonderful get away!

Excellent location near the beach
Loved the location and place, the hosts Anne and Michael were on top of things the whole time and did not disappoint. I would say this is far the best experience we have had with renting a place with fun things to do. We loved packing up our cooler and beach chairs/toys on the golf cart and driving through the neighborhood to the beach. Don’t pass up the golf cart… you’ll thank me. Kudos to Anne and Michael for such a pleasant trip. I will be back as long as they are the hosts!

Convenient and fun
The inside of the condo was very clean with nice furniture. The hosts are very generous and supply many beach supplies. The golf cart makes the vacation. You could walk to the beach, but the golf cart is so much more convenient, especially with all of the chairs and boogie boards and other supplies that are provided. It also adds another level of fun to ride it through the neighborhood to and from the beach. I would stay here again if I ever returned to St. Augustine.

Quiet location for family
Loved the condo! The location was great for us: away from the touristy parts of St Aug. Short walk across the street to beach, which was uncrowded. Short drive to restaurants, grocery and St Auggie tourism. If I had to complain about anything, it would be broken downstairs bathroom door (noisy) and that we didn’t know loft was not closed in completely (can hear everything going on downstairs and vice versa). Will stay here again, no doubt!!! Thx!

Tropical paradise oasis
We just finished up our stay at this darling townhouse. It was perfect for our family of 4 plus our 2 dogs. The Florida room was perfect to set up our 2 large dog kennels and for a feeding area for them. Our 2 teenagers switched off between the downstairs bedroom and the foldout bed in living room. Everything was just as described. Very clean plenty of extra linens and pillows, kitchen was filled with just about everything you could need. Enjoyed the side porch with the tropical paradise oasis in the mornings and evenings. The location is perfect we opted for the golf cart and it made lugging all beach items easy. But the walk to the beach is an easy 5 min to the neighborhood beach access if do not have. Very close to St Augustine and all it's attractions. Anne and Michael were very friendly and helpful. They live in the neighborhood so you might run into them while out and about. So appreciate them opening their home to us. Hope to stay here again or use another of their rentals in the future.

Very clean condo with everything you need for a great stay. We recommend renting the golf cart if you plan beach time. And it’s perfect for riding up to Caps for a delicious dinner and super friendly service. Michael and Anne were great hosts and there for us if we needed anything, which we didn’t because the condo was so well stocked. They were very quick to respond to questions we had before our arrival. Recommend!

The place is amazing. Anne and Michael, the property managers are amazing, superb friendly and helpful and had the place looking glam when we arrived. And always available for assistance if anything goes wrong or if you need anything. There’s a huge fenced in back yard if you have dogs or just want to sit outside. Plus a 5 min walk or drive in the golf cart to the beach. If Anne offers one to you, take it. It is totally worth it! Upstairs has its own bathroom attached to the bedroom that has a queen bed, bunk bed and a sofa sleeper; very spacious and the parents can hang downstairs in their private bedroom outside of the main entrance. We had lots of fun and will be back. Thanks again Anne!
