The best pool ever

We stayed here again just for the pool and backyard. The big ledge plus the spa is perfect for little kids. The rest of the house is great too. The only con is the kitchen is sorely needing some updated kitchenware. Only like 5 plates and the cups are stainedv. And no larger pots made it challenging to cook for the group. There are new owners though so hopefully they will remedy this. :)

Fantastic Place

What a great place to stay! This house was so close to everything, even within walking distance to some great restaurants, and only a short drive from everything else. The neighborhood was quiet and great for walking and riding bikes. The host, Lindsay, was quick to respond to any issue or question. On the day of check in the washer was broken (noticed by the cleaning crew) and they quickly had it replaced. Also the batteries in the door lock were dying and those were quickly replaced as well. The house had a great lay out and was so bright and airy. Beds were comfy and rooms were spacious. The pool was fabulous amd refreshing especially after a morning at the beach and walking around town. We didn't use the fire pit, but it was nice amd had chairs to sit around it. They even had a Pac-Man game in the garage area, which was a hit with the kids. There was not a playground as pictured, but I assumed it was ruined in one of the storms (already addressed with the host), but the bounce house was available to use. I did suggest a new set of pots and pans, a full set of dishes, and a guest book, which they are working on. Overall, we would definitely stay here again!

A TRUE PARADISE

The property was even better than I expected!! It was so nicely decorated, the beds were very comfortable, there were plenty of towels, washcloths, and beach towels, and lots of pool toys and floats. There were 7 of us there to celebrate my oldest daughter graduating high school. She had a blast getting to spend everyday in the pool. The backyard is a true paradise. We relaxed in the pool and watched pink flamingos fly over multiple times. They are my favorite bird!!! We grilled out one day using the grill provided and my own mother spent so much time in the hammock that is attached to 2 palm trees. The location of the home is so close to all the things you could ever dream of doing. My husband and I would love to come back with all 4 of our kids so they can experience the joy we felt. It was our first time in St. Augustine, and it did not disappoint!! The host was also always available to answer any questions. Food recommendations: SARBEZ, Pizza Time, GAS Full Service Restaurant, Marina Munch(Funkadelic food truck was so good), Salt Life Food Shack, Prohibition Kitchen, Kookaburra 312, Island Donuts, and Rita's Italian Ice and Custard.

Very comfortable & relaxing

We had a wonderful time at this property! The pool and hot tub are great to relax in. The kitchen is superbly equipped to satisfy any of your cooking expeditions, with everything from a Keurig to a waffle maker. The beds are very comfortable and made for a great night’s sleep. We enjoyed the short walks across the Lion’s Bridge to get to the historic district…great location! I did suggest to the owner that a welcome & operations book (that describes the house systems, WiFi, garbage, favorite restaurants nearby & attractions) etc, should be on the counter for guests to familiarize themselves. I hope that this is implemented as it would reduce a lot of confusion. Also a guest sign-in book would be nice, for visitors to share their experiences with owner, and each other, and brag about favorite restaurants and activities they’ve done! Richard was exemplary in immediately contacting us to answer any questions or concerns. Had a great time here and I know you will too. 😊
