Best of Butler Beach
Turtle's Nest is a wonderful beach house in a quiet neighbor, just steps away from the beach. The home is comfortably furnished and tastefully decorated with a coastal vibe. If you like to do your own cooking, the spacious kitchen has everything you need. Plenty of cookware, plates, glasses, utensils. All of the bedrooms have plenty of extra pillows and blankets and there is ample closet space for storage. The best part of the home is the covered patio that faces the ocean. It's the perfect place for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails after a day at the beach. The only issue we had was that the two car garage, while super neat and clean, had items stored along the sides of the walls, making it impossible for us to park our vehicle inside. Overall, Turtle's Nest is a great beach house. Lauren is a wonderful host and we will definitely come back for another great beach vacation!

Great Getaway!
We've rented a variety of vacation places over the years. This particular home was one of the better ones! We truly appreciated the fact that the home was very clean. We're new to pet-friendly and have been horrified by bookings we had in the past (not VRBO). That wasn't the case with this home. The house has everything needed for a nice stay. The grocery store is a short drive away and we really loved the quick drive into St. Augustine! The beach is a short walk, but be prepared to walk through sand over a dune. Not an issue, but it could be a challenge for some. That being said, there were a few cars on the beach so there's probably vehicle access somewhere. Lauren is fantastic with communication - available, quick to respond, and just a great host.

Great place for families
We loved how close the house is to the beach--short walk without having to cross A1A. The neighborhood is quiet and close to places to eat and things to do in downtown St. Augustine. Kids especially loved the bunk beds. Lauren was very helpful and communicative. All around great place to stay!

Great stay
10/10! We had a wonderful time! The beach was easily accessible and you could tell the home was newly remodeled, as everything in the house was clean and in great condition. It was probably a 2 minute walk from the door to the beach. Lots of space for our family of 4 and doggie. We will definitely return. Thanks for a great spring break in Florida!

Fabulous
Great location, just a few hundred feet from the beach and easy to access. Unobstructed view of the ocean from the balcony. Plenty of space, everything was clean, inviting and worked great. Two car garage, plus space for 2 cars in the driveway. Butler beach, was amazing. You can drive on the beach for $10 a day if you don't feel like hauling all your stuff. Not crowded at all and beach folks were nice all around. Saw some people fishing on the beach. Waves were ok, maybe good for body surfing. Great place to bring the family. Water was cool and inviting, the surf and sand was oh so clean. Dry sand was literally squeaky clean. Sunrise was absolutely breathtaking. Highly recommend you take advantage of this opportunity. Bugs were not bad, totally manageable, but there were a few mosquitos.at dusk.
