*SECURITY DEPOSIT: In lieu of a traditional security deposit charge or authorization hold for a large sum, we will instead charge a one-time non-refundable incidentals fee to your stay of $49. This fee acts as insurance for minor damages and covers you up to a max of $500 of damage. You may elect to increase your incidentals fee for more coverage ($99 for $1000, $149 for $1500, $199 for $2000 and so on and so forth). *IMPORTANT: Guests must report to us any damage that has taken place during their stay before checkout, otherwise the incidental fee coverage is null and void. In this case, we reserve the right to charge the full amount of repairing or replacing the damaged items to you. Your insurance coverage amount ($500, $1000, $1500, etc) is not the max that you are responsible for. If damages exist beyond your coverage amount we will document this with photos and professional estimates of repair, and bill you for the repairs or replacements.

Cottage in St Augustine
The property was very clean and had just about anything you can think of that you might need somewhere on the premises. The neighborhood was quiet, but not upscale and the neighboring house are very close. If your pet is a dog it will need to be walked in the street, as there is no yard. The TV had a large selection of shows to watch however we were unable or it is unavailable to connect your phone to Wi-Fi. The master bed was very comfortable but quite high and could be a problem for the short or elderly . These are not complaints, but I thought it might be helpful to know. We had a great time and felt quite at home. We would rent again.

Awesome
The unit was very well kept with everything we needed for a relaxed and wonderful stay. Dani and her team were extremely courteous and professional every step of the way. The instructions for check-in/check-out, wifi, trash/recycle not only in a book, but posted as well. There was no question as to what we needed to do, which I believe contributed to our most enjoyable stay. Did I say how awesome Dani and her team were? yes I did and they were.
Thank you guys so much.
With our most heartfelt thanks and love
