Sunburst Cottage Beachside

Come and enjoy our beautiful beach side vacation rental. Built in 1955 this Old Florida style home beautifully appointed and newly remodeled is fully furnished. The house is East of A1A Beach Blvd so there are no roads to cross. ( not Oceanfront but less than 50 yards form the beach.)

The many features include brand new appliances in the full kitchen, washer dryer, two large bedrooms, fireplace,central air and heat, a living room with two comfortable couches as well as a front porch which has a day bed and converts to two twin beds.

There are 1 1/2 baths as well as an outside hot and cold shower. The outdoor deck has a built in Hot Tub. It is on a section of Saint Augustine Beach that does not allow driving on the Beach so it is less crowded and more private. We do allow dogs and St Augustine Beach Beach is very dog friendly.

It is a short walk to the fishing pier and 14 cafes and restaurants are within walking distance. Downtown Saint Augustine is a short ten minute drive.

Everyone loves our house. It is close to the Beach and everything Saint Augustine has to offer.

Great Location but ...
Sunburst cottage is centrally located but the week we were there they were replenishing the beach. The fishing pier didn't reach the ocean and we had to walk down the outside of the beach to get to the ocean. Other then that it was a great stay.

This is an old school beach bungalow. Steps from the beach. Very well decorated. Some modern renovations- but overall still that small beach cottage feel. We absolutely fell in love with it. It was perfect for our family of 4 with dogs. We love the area and have established our go-to spots when not at the beach. Owners were very nice in our limited communications. Great cottage!

This is our 4th time staying at Sunburst Cottage. It’s quiet and comfortable. Home has everything you need and then some. Very short walk to the beach and places to eat. Michael is great to communicate with and so nice. I definitely recommend staying at Sunburst Cottage.

Wonderful home steps from the beach
We really enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for our family and just what we needed. Beach access was perfect and only steps from the home. (The access does not have a boardwalk, but there is a beach access a block up from the home with a boardwalk.) The street is very quiet. We stayed over the 4th of July week and never had an issue with noise. The home is well kept and had beautiful, unique furniture. The private deck area with hot tub was enjoyable in the evenings. The trundle day bed on the porch was perfect for our two boys. The kitchen cabinets and counters are nicely updated, per the description, but are not represented in the pictures. You can tell the property owners take pride in their home and communicated great with check-in. The property is also very close to lots of restaurants and only a few blocks from the pier. There is a publix close by and other shops a short drive away. Thank you for the stay!

Did not disappoint.
This was our second time staying at Sunburst Cottage and we absolutely enjoy the location to the beach and the ability to walk to several restaurants, ice-cream shops and the farmers market on the pier. The enclosed back deck with the hot tub is nice for relaxing in the morning or evening and being able to let our pup run around and play. This trip we met some very nice locals that let our dog play with theirs on the beach. We are hoping to return in the future.

FANTASTIC
This was the first time we ever rented a house on the beach. We go to St Augustine Beach all the time for 3 and 4 day weekends so this time we decided on a house Rental and not a hotel. Good decision. The Sunburst Cottage is old and nothing fancy but it is clean,modern and in a perfect location. It is a 3 minute walk down to the beach without having to cross a highway. The cottage had smart TV's, internet, modern appliances and no carpet which made it very easy to vacuum. We walked to a number of nearby businesses and some of the nearby seafood restaurants were incredibly delicious. If you're into ice cream and sweets you'll be be quite happy here. Also, there is a Publix grocery store just down the street. The garage has a washer n dryer, bicycles, beach umbrella, beach cart and a small bathroom in there. Also, next to the hot tub is an enclosed wooden shower stall which we used to bathe the dog and then us! The Sunburst and the beach are both pet friendly and our 75 pound Goldendoodle was in heaven. There are "poop" bags conveniently located at the beach entrance so there is NO excuse to clean up after your dog. DON'T ruin for others. It was just my wife and I and this but next time we want to go again with our grandchildren. There is plenty of room for several guests. We appreciated the outdoor picnic table with shaded umbrella and we absolutely loved the hot tub which worked perfectly. We didn't use it this time but next time we'll be using the outdoor grill.

Best rental we've stayed in
We rented this property for a week and the first thing we noticed was how spacious the house was compared to the photos. The kitchen is roomy, with updated appliances and modern decor. The kitchen is fully stocked with all cooking needs. The couches and beds were all extremely comfortable. The daybed in the sunroom was really nice to lounge on during afternoon storms. The back deck with privacy wall was a nice gem and the outdoor shower with hot/cold water was a great benefit. We took full advantage of the hot tub and loved that the ocean was only a 30second walk away. This house was nestled perfectly in Anastasia island and only a short drive to the lighthouse and historic downtown st Augustine. I love that we were able to bring our dog and we hope to stay here again and bring friends and family so they can experience all that this house and st Augustine have to offer. Michael was a phenomenal host and answered any questions or concerns we had in a timely manner. 10/10 would recommend.

Perfect little home
We love coming to St Augustine as often as we can and have stayed at several places, this home was great. We were able to bring our dog, who loves to go on vacation. We were within walking distance of several restaurants and close enough to the pier to walk to for the market on Wednesday. Michael was easy to reach and a pleasure to work with. Thank you for the use of your property.

Wonderful stay for small family or friend group!
Our group of 4 adults (plus a dog!) very much enjoyed our stay at Sunburst Cottage! The cottage is older, but well kept and the location couldn't be more ideal. It's walking distance to multiple shops and restaurants, as well as a short 1 minute walk to the sand. The outdoor shower and half bath in the garage were nice to have in addition to the full bath inside. Very pet friendly area as well, which was a plus for our group. Would definitely stay again!

Pink House near the Ocean
We've been visiting St Augustine Beach for 12 years, this is the first time we rented a house. We couldn't be more happy with our choice. The location is perfect, a short walk to the beach, & more restaurants then I can name. The Pink house is clean, comfortable, and perfectly inviting. They provide all the comforts of home plus some extra perks such as the hot tub, outdoor shower, private side deck, outdoor grill and so much more. I found myself truly relaxed and I even read a couple of the books they had available.
