Spring break

Overall the place was perfect. We loved the access to the beach and the quietness. We appreciated the beach supplies and enjoyed seeing the turtles. The place wasn’t the cleanest place we’ve stayed in, but not much to complain about.

Prime location

Being a dune boardwalk away from the ocean and hearing the waves was wonderful. So many FL beaches are not dog friendly, but this beach area was. The apt was comfortable and as pictured, and is perfect for 2 people. There are endless things to explore and do in the area, and in St. Augustine.

Satisfied with our stay

We loved our stay and felt we had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The boardwalk that took us out to the beach was a bit unstable, boards were loose and did not feel entirely safe, could use some work. Other than that everything was great. Sat and watched the sunrise every morning on the benches. The turtles were a pleasant surprise and so fun to watch.

Loved the location; easy access to the beach. We called for extra blankets and they were delivered promptly. Good response time. A cute place, but it needs some TLC & to be sprayed for bugs. Tripping hazard from raised floor tiles in the kitchen, the bedroom overhead light was not functioning. Sliders were very tough to open. The furnace closet seemed to be harboring breeding bugs.

Sun & Fun

We enjoyed our stay at this property location in proximity to beach was great. Here is my suggestion...have a beach wagon that have the fat tires to carry all your beach stuff. We had to make several trips to get our stuff down to beach and a wagon would have been helpful. .

Loved the location. It was nice having a cart to carry beach stuff to and from the beach. Easy access into apartment. I would love to stay at this location again, but due to back issues that I deal with the furniture (living room & bedroom) is too soft for individuals such as myself. However, I would highly recommend this location for others to consider. All email conversations with Angela Moro were answered promptly. The beach was clean & though the apartment was located next to a busy public beach access there was no issues with noise. My sister & I really enjoyed the stay.

Beach getaway - great location

The unit is in a great location, there are stairs to the beach from the back and it is right next to the public access road. The unit itself is very spacious and the kitchen is very well supplied. There is a lot to do in the area and we went on a sailing catamaran in Saint Augustine, and also went on some other tours. We had our two small dogs with us and we found the area to be extremely pet friendly.There was a caretaker on the premises and he was very responsive and friendly. I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for the Old Florida feel. It is also very convenient to grocery stores and restaurants.

Nice stay but could be better

Location was perfect and so convenient to walk to the beach. Communication with the property manager could definitely be better. The back door from the living room doesn’t lock and there’s a stick keeping it from opening. When I messaged Angela letting her know, she didn’t message me back which was disappointing. There’s some basic repairs that need to be made that would make the condo more pleasant for renters.

Clean, Comfortable, Great Location!

Upon walking in I was amazed at was how clean the apartment was, especially for a pet home. It is the first beach rental I recall where I did not have to wash the dishes and kitchen utensils before I used them! The beds were so comfortable, as was the rest of the furniture. The property is in the process of being renovated, so we did experience a little hiccup during our two week stay, but the property owner was right on it, with good communication while it was being resolved. It was an extra nice to be able to bring our dog and step right outside the door to take him for a walk. We like quiet and less congestion so the location was perfect for us. The beach was beautiful!!! Thank you Angela for a wonderful stay!!!!

Placen beach get away!!!!

Place is clean and description is accurate. Don’t expect luxury but its is very spacious and comfortable. On the beach, easy to find and again a good place to stay for a few days while you visit places. They are restaurants around and one one next to the property and a gas station across the street. Beautiful sunsets and sunrises, comfortable beds and multiple TVs. Here is what i would recommend, have some beach gear like folding chairs for those that come out of state and have extra bed linens for the sofa. Internet is reliable, A/C is good and a overall is a good place unless you expect luxury. Nice apartment for adults with older children. We stayed at the main floor with a nice patio.

About the host

Hosted by Angela Moro

Host profile image

As your host at Sand Castle Apartments, I want guests to know that I truly care about providing a clean, comfortable, and enjoyable stay for every visitor. My goal is for you to feel welcomed, relaxed, and able to enjoy everything that beautiful Crescent Beach and St. Augustine have to offer.

I take pride in maintaining the property and being attentive to guest needs. I understand that vacations are valuable time, so I work hard to make your stay smooth and stress-free—from an easy self-check-in process to clear communication and prompt assistance when needed.

I also appreciate respectful guests who value a peaceful environment for everyone staying on the property. Sand Castle Apartments is a place where guests come to unwind, enjoy the beach, and make great memories.

Most of all, I want guests to know that I’m grateful you chose to stay with us, and I hope your time here feels like a true home away from home by the ocean.

Why they chose this property

We chose Crescent Beach because it offers the perfect balance of natural beauty, relaxation, and convenience. Located just south of St. Augustine Beach, this area is known for its wide sandy shoreline, peaceful atmosphere, and less-crowded beaches compared with busier tourist areas. It’s the kind of place where you can truly slow down and enjoy the ocean.

What we love most about the neighborhood is the sense of calm. Guests can start the day with a sunrise walk on the beach, spend the afternoon swimming, fishing, surfing, or exploring, and end the evening with beautiful coastal sunsets and ocean breezes.

Crescent Beach also gives you the best of both worlds—you’re tucked away in a quiet beach community, yet only a short drive from historic downtown St. Augustine, great restaurants, shopping, and local attractions.

It’s a special area where families, couples, and pet owners can enjoy a more authentic Florida beach experience while still being close to everything.

What makes this property unique

What makes Sand Castle Apartments truly unique is its rare combination of a direct oceanfront location, a peaceful Crescent Beach setting, and an intimate boutique-style atmosphere. Unlike large crowded resorts or high-rise condos, our property features only seven units, giving guests a more private, relaxed, and personal beach experience.
Located at 50 Cubbedge Rd, Crescent Beach, just south of St. Augustine Beach, guests enjoy one of the most desirable stretches of shoreline—less crowded, more serene, and perfect for long walks, family time, and unforgettable sunrises.
Our guests love being able to step outside and be just moments from the sand and ocean, while also enjoying comfortable accommodations with thoughtful amenities, ocean views from select units, and inviting common outdoor spaces designed for relaxation.
What truly sets us apart is the feeling of staying at a hidden coastal gem where you can enjoy both sunrise over the ocean and sunset skies, all while hearing the waves and feeling the ocean breeze.
Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or a pet-friendly beach retreat, Sand Castle Apartments offers a warm, welcoming experience that keeps guests returning year after year.
