Excellent place for family fun at the beach

We had a great time staying with 9 family members. The backyard pool and surrounding deck was great for lounging around. Convenient location to old st Augustine and an easy 5 min walk to the beach. Walked the beach every morning.

Cute & Clean

The property was very nice and clean. The property is advertised as having four bedrooms and it does not. There are only three bedrooms, plus a loft area with a pull out bed. The bugs out back were so bad we were unable to enjoy the pool. There was no screening or bug deterrent, which would have been it much more enjoyable.

Once upon a time

Denise was awesome. She answered questions promptly before we even booked and always responded quickly during our stay. She went above and beyond with some little extras for us and our small children. The house is beautiful. The pool was warm and relaxing and has a shallow area perfect for younger kids. We sat outside and swam quite a bit for being December! The location is great for access to the beach and also close to downtown. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Property, Responsive Host

Denise was so on the ball with communication. I arrived a few minutes before check in and she opened the door for us. The house was absolutely beautiful, marked with signage to help us navigate the many beautiful amenities. And she was very understanding when we had a few too many vehicles for a few hours during the morning while we had hair and makeup people getting the ride and bridal party ready for the big wedding day. So close to the beach this property was a real dream and I would go there again ina heartbeat and would highly recommend to anyone.

We absolutely loved our stay! We drove over from Sarasota to attend a football game in Jacksonville. It was a beautiful drive from Denise’s place up A1A. The house was perfect! Close to the beach to catch the sunrise, close to the historical district but in a quiet lovely neighborhood. The house was wonderful for a family and did not miss a thing. Highly recommend!

We very much enjoyed the property and all of the details and hard work that went into it – I would absolutely stay here again.

Family Beach Vacation

Our family (8 adults and one seven month old) thoroughly enjoyed spending vacation at this beautiful home! The house was decorated beautifully and was clean, clean, clean! All commented on how well stocked the house was, with any item you could think of on site. We used the pool daily and also made several trips to the beach. The beach access was close by and the available beach necessities provided made beach days convenient and most enjoyable. Denise was always immediately responsive and helpful. We enjoyed the peaceful neighborhood and easy, low traffic route into St. Augustine. Would highly recommend this home for a great vacation!

Great beach home 10 mins from downtown!

As stated by prior guests, Once Upon A Tide is fantastic! It’s located in a small and friendly community that is very welcoming. The home itself has a special ambiance to it from the excellent decor to the neatly placed amenities throughout the space. The pool area features a heated pool with a gas fireplace. We loved exploring all that it had to offer. The host is responsive and timely with communication. The checkin process is touchless and very easy. No complaints on my end. Thank you.

Great house for a family vacation

We totally enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for a family vacation. The outdoor space with the pool was ideal for everyone to gather and the house had plenty of room for the kids to play and the adults to hang. The beach access was easy breezy with the golf cart.

Traveled with a group of 8 women (all 40+ years old). We had an excellent time. The house is very close to the beach, Denise was an awesome host and responded quickly with any questions we had. We had everything we needed in the house. Nothing at all to complain about. Only 1 heads up for anyone looking to stay with 8 people, the top bunk beds are 100 pound weight limit. We just took the mattresses off the top of the bunk and slept on them in the loft area. Other than that, had a blast!

This house was the perfect spot for our family get together. It was my family of 4, my parents and my brothers family of 4. We had plenty of space. There was something for everyone to do. The owners of this beautiful home put a lot of effort into making us feel welcome and at home. The home was immaculate, everything we could possibly need was available. The location is wonderful, we were able to put the kids in the wagons and walk to the beach. The private pool was the perfect size for the adults to lounge and the kids to play. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this home and the owner!

The house was clean and super relaxing! Both checking in and out was super easy. We enjoyed the cabana and the pool. All of the touristy things are close enough to easily get to, but still far enough away that we could relax and enjoy the quiet beach neighborhood. Definitely check out Aunt Kate’s for dinner. It was really close to the house and felt like a hidden gem.
