Very Good

It was a wonderful property.
We had some problems with the keys, some doors doesn’t open, maybe need to replace the keys. And another thing I didn’t like is that we had to drive 16 miles north from where we was to return the key,so ridiculous ! They should just ask to leave the keys at the lock box. So much easier.

We enjoyed our stay and the place was nice, but not sure if we'd stay there again.

Pros:
- Good location close to old town St. Augustine
- Great layout for multi-family social time upstairs
- Clean (but a few minor things needed fixing)
- Access to the Serenata Beach Club (for additional fee) was wonderful
- Driveway was great for kiddies to bike/scooter, lots of parking
Cons:
- Beach access is 1/2 mile away
- Room layout wasn't quite as expected from pictures ... didn't work as well as hoped for multiple families
- One "bedroom" was basically a big closet
- Door was unlocked upon arrival, and no on called us back when we contacted the rental agency
- Both dryers were full of wet towels upon arrival

Great for large groups
This property was great for a large group of people. There was ample parking for 5 cars including a double car garage to park.
The home was spacious and had two living areas to gather. We had a few minor issues
*such as there was no key in the lockbox and we had to call for the garage code, which ended up as a plus as everyone (14 ladies) could come and go and not worried about sharing a key.
* we could not find the towels but eventually found them in the dryer and had to fold and put the towels in the various bathrooms
*no kitchen towels or kitchen wash clothes nor bathroom wash clothes
*no extra toilet paper, only the existing ones on the roll. With 14 ladies and 3 nights we ran out very quickly, and no extra paper towels. We did call the owner/manager and they did eventually bring these items, but we had already went to Publix and picked these items up.
The one major disappointment was one room with a double bed was very uncomfortable.
However the home was beautiful, and large. If the owner just fixed the few problems mentioned above this would be a five star rating.

Cool house with god location
Definitely roomy with lots of parking. Rooftop is great at night. Difficult to get to the beach without walking through someone else’s back yard

Family Remembrance Retreat
My large family (6 siblings), with our significant others, gathered in St. Augustine to attend our mother's memorial service. The property was in great condition and as advertised regarding amenities, etc. It definitely suited our needs for the weekend.
