About this property
Vilano Beach Cottage, 1/2 block to Surfside Beach. Historic Capo Cottage
Charming 3/2 cottage located in the historic Surfside Community of Vilano. Once this home belonged to the Capo Family who brought visitors from downtown St Augustine across the Intercoastal on a ferry to the beach in the 1920’s. Today, you can enjoy the vintage vibe, with modern conveniences. Only 2 min walk to Surfside Beach! This 3 bedroom 2 bath home is perfect for small families, girls weekends or little romantic get aways. Beautiful fenced back yard, 2 blocks to public tennis courts and pickleball. Walking distance to grocery store and restaurants and across the street from the beach. One small dog will be permitted with a $100 non refundable pet fee.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Joey Klockare

A lover of exploring, travel, nature and things that make you feel alive! A mother of two, a wife to a Swede and a proud pet parent to a 9 lb Shiranian. I love new experiences and new people. I am a Drama teacher, travel professional, and lover of Florida. I grew up in Kansas City, but have lived in many places, New England, San Diego, Newport Beach, Surfer's Paradise, Australia and even Avignon ,France. I love football (hint my team has a certain #15 as the QB) BBQs and a nice bottle of red wine. We are so excited to offer our guests a relaxing beach experience and get to know why we have fallen in love with this little slice of heaven in Northeast Florida.
Why they chose this property
Character, history, location... this house is not the newest kid on the block, in fact it might be the oldest but that is why we love it. It has so much original charm, from the beadboard on the walls, to the original hardwood floors. This house is oozing charm, history and character. It's location it absolutely perfect for long days at the beach, evenings exploring St. Augustine or day on the boat. It is a 3 bedroom 2 bath but feels very roomy with large open living and dining rooms. We also allow a small dog (with a pet fee) if you are traveling with your furbaby. A fenced in yard will allow privacy to bbq after a long day in the sun.
What makes this property unique
Located across the street from Surfside park, showers and bathrooms are located at this park which is right on the beach. Great location and close to all St. Augustine attractions. Walking distance to a beautiful neighborhood parks with basketball courts, tennis court, pickleball court, playground and dog park.
