Experience St. Augustine’s famous Nights of Lights from your own Vilano Beach getaway! Our 3-bedroom vacation home sleeps up to 8 and features a private pool, firepit and an easy 5-minute walk to Vilano Beach—all just a short drive from historic downtown St. Augustine.
Visiting for Nights of Lights? Spend the day relaxing at the beach or by your private pool, then head into historic St. Augustine to experience more than three million sparkling white lights throughout the historic district, Plaza de la Constitución and bayfront. Explore St. George Street, restaurants, shops, holiday events and Nights of Lights tours before escaping the downtown crowds and returning to your peaceful Vilano Beach retreat.
A unique Vilano Beach advantage during Nights of Lights: seasonal Nights of Lights boat cruises depart from the Vilano Fishing Pier, giving visitors another memorable way to see St. Augustine’s illuminated bayfront from the water. Tour schedules, tickets and availability are separate from your stay and should be confirmed directly with the tour operator.
The cottage is designed for families and groups, with 3 bedrooms, comfortable sleeping space for up to 8 guests, a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of room to relax together. Outside, enjoy the private pool and gather around the firepit after a day of exploring St. Augustine.
Vilano Beach is just a short walk away, and beach towels are provided for your stay. A park directly across from the property offers a playground, tennis courts, pickleball courts and basketball courts. Two bikes are also available upon request.
Make your St. Augustine Nights of Lights trip a beach vacation too. Enjoy the magic of historic downtown at night, Vilano Beach by day, and your own private pool and cottage to come home to. It's the best of St. Augustine—Nights of Lights, beach and pool—all in one stay.

This house was perfect for what we needed! It was in a great location-short walk to the beach, short drive to town, and a beautiful place to relax and listen to the waves!

We are glad you enjoyed your visit. Come back soon.
The house was clean and well laid out, the patio and small pool were a delight, and I liked the shower/wash station so you can get the beach sand off your feet. We had to call about a couple issues, but they were resolved expediently.!
Very nice, clean and well stocked home with awesome location
The home is as advertised. Clean, comfortable and well stocked. Close enough to the beach with an easy walk or drive to a public beach parking lot close by. 5-10 minute drive to downtown St Augustine. Publix 3 minutes away. Good seafood restaurants also near by. All in all a very enjoyable stay and awesome communication with Host Kathy and Michelle. Thank you,Adams Family
