There is definitely a reason why this place has so many 5 star reviews. It was perfect! Propane was out on the fire pit and they had it fixed within an hour. Truly amazing hosts, comfortable beds, adorable setting!
We had such a great stay! This was our annual sister trip and the accommodation was our favorite of any trip so far! The home is clean and comfortable. The location is great! We walked to historic downtown every day and there are plenty of food choices nearby. The short drive to many beaches was nice too. If it’s not on your list, drive by Magnolia Ave in Vilano for a fun photo op! Thanks for sharing your home.
Our stay at this property was absolutely amazing, I can’t say enough good things! The home was beautiful and clearly designed with guests in mind. They had everything needed. We had a group of seven, and everyone felt comfortable with plenty of space. The owner’s communication was excellent from start to finish. A 10/10 stay—don’t hesitate to book!
Such a cozy and comfortable stay! Celebrated my 50th birthday with friends and the space is perfect for a group to relax. I’m local and will definitely make this my go to spot.
First of all, the home is beautiful! Great location in a quiet neighborhood. The host was great at communicating and is even mailing two things I forgot to pack back to me! When we arrived we found chocolate and a bottle of wine greeting us in the fridge! We had a wonderful week!

We loved, loved, lobed our stay!! Looking forward to booking here again.
The host was very gracious. Left us a bottle of wine with chocolates to enjoy. The house is beautiful and in a great location. I highly recommend this property.
The home was absolutely beautiful! It was very well stocked with everything we needed. We had 8 people and had plenty of inside and outside room to relax. The location was great. It is close enough to downtown to walk. Paul, our host, was very attentive and answered all of our questions very quickly. I would highly recommend this lovely “Cottage over the Bridge”!
The home is lovely! Just as in the photos. The home was clean as a whistle and we had everything that we needed. Our host was very accommodating and responded very quickly to our questions. The home was even decorated for Christmas! Would not hesitate to stay again in the future.
House was beautiful and comfortable. My family and I loved it. We celebrated my mom’s 72nd birthday with a girls trip to St. Augustine and this house was perfect. Not too far from everything. Very clean. Will stay here again.
Not one thing missing or less than ideal! An amazing use of space that is both beautiful and practical with everything we needed for a fantastic family reunion. Kudos to the owners for an exceptional home!
We had such a wonderful time staying at this property. Beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for our weekend away. Would love to come back and stay longer next time.
We loved our stay at the house in St. Augustine. It had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. It was in a great location. We would love to come back sometime!
This property was great from the day we reserved it. The owners and property manager were prompt in their responses. The house was lovely, accommodating, perfect for our needs. They even left us a welcome gift. No stone left unturned -so much detail in planning. We enjoyed this property and will definitely come again.
This property made my dad's 82nd birthday celebration extremely special for our family. Not only was the home and its decor spacious and stunning (exceeding the lovely pictures online), the hosts and property manager were incredibly accommodating. The location could not have been better, as it is right between the beach and historic downtown St. Augustine. It was one of our favorite stays ever. :)
We had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, spacious, and had so many amenities and extra supplies that made our trip easy and comfortable. The beds were very cozy, and the location was perfect—close to downtown but still quiet and relaxing. The hosts were professional and kind, even when my daughter accidentally broke a lamp. Everything was handled smoothly and with understanding. We would absolutely love to come back and stay again if they’ll have us!
Throughly enjoyed our stay. It was better than expected. The home has everything you need and more!

About the host
Your host
Two families purchased this property in 2021 and began a full renovation of the entire home. After months of working together (and enjoying many favorite local restaurants and beaches), we put on our final touches.
Why they chose this property
We have all fallen in love with this area. As people who love history and charming beach side communities, what wasn't to love about the oldest city in America?!
