About this property

Beachside with Billiard Room & Beach Cruisers!

The Ruby Sea Turtle is a newly renovated Family Friendly 3 Bedroom 2 Bath Home located blocks from the Atlantic Ocean in North Jacksonville Beach. We provide a clean, comfortable, and private beach experience for all of our guests. Sleeping arrangements can comfortably accommodate up to 6 people. After a long day at the beach, come back and relax in front of the 70inch TV or challenge a friend to a game of pool!

So why The Ruby Sea Turtle?
Founded in 1884 by the Scull family, Jacksonville Beach was first known as Ruby Beach. William E. and Eleanor Scull were the first family to settle the area, working a post office and general store while living in tents on the beach with their two children, "Ruby" and Bessie. What began as a small, nearly unpopulated, nineteenth-century outpost on the route between Mayport and St. Augustine eventually grew into the thriving and lively Jacksonville Beach we know today. With our love for local history and wildlife, we decided to name the house after a combination of the historical Ruby Beach and the beautiful Sea Turtles that nest along our shores.

Absolutely perfect little home; very thought out and cared for. Hate it didn’t have a icemaker, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker. Would have loved to have had more dresser space and curtains or blinds that dimmed the bright light in the bedrooms but they weren’t dealbreakers either. Great location for a great stay. The pool table room was so much fun and we spent most of our time in there.

I would like to give compliments to the host of this property. Although it is a smaller/older property, the home is extremely clean, well maintained and most of all exceeded expectations on amenities provided by the host! We could not have asked for a better say. The location is super convenient to beach access and local restaurants. Would not hesitate to rent this property again in the future :)

Pleasant stay, loved the bikes.

We were visiting family - wanted our own place so that we didn't cramp them (and they have a cat and we have allergies). It made for a very pleasant visit - with the bonus of being a bike ride from the beach! The weather was perfect and the house was clean.

Great Location

We were in town for a Military Retirement and to catch up friends from when we lived here. Great location, easy access to the beaches, Jax Beach, Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach, and Mayport. Quiet neighborhood. Well appointed house, with lots of consumables available (coffee, laundry, towels, etc). The 3 queen beds were comfortable, AC worked great, fans in bedrooms was nice. Bath rooms were clean, and kitchen was stocked with spices, pots and pans, plates, etc. Pool table was fun to play on. SmartTV in living room was nice to relax to. Great stay!

Terrible!!!!

First of all, no communication prior to checking in. When we arrived, the door was open and another family apparently was still there because their belongings was everywhere. We contacted the host countless times and still haven't gotten a response. This totally ruined my husband's birthday weekend!

This place was the best! Over the past 7 mos. I have experienced several unexpected devastating losses, to include my mother and best friend. I needed to hit the mental reset button and this place did just that. Location, thoughtfulness to what you would need during your stay was impressive. Loved the Dukes in the fridge(country girl through and through)! This home is a must! The outdoor is shower so insagram worthy. We will be back!! The hosts are amazing as well!!

Cozy House Close to Beach

The house was very cozy and clean. It was a very short drive to the beach and centrally located to some very good nearby restaurants. The bikes were a great added feature. The only suggestions that I might make are a table large enough for 6 people to sit at and enjoy meals inside and some wine glasses. Other than that, our stay was fabulous.

USS STARK MEMORIAL -37 YEARS

This property was in good shape, except the beds were low, and the commodes were low and hard to get up from. All but 1 of us are almost 6' tall and are senior citizens. Had a fun time with the pool table, when we were able to be there!
