The house stands proudly between the majestic Atlantic Ocean and the serene Intercoastal Waterway, ensuring breathtaking views from every corner.

The pièce de résistance awaits on the third floor, where the primary bedroom suite exudes luxury. This sanctuary features a private balcony, offering a personal retreat to soak in the coastal ambiance. Adjacent to the bedroom is a quaint library, complete with a convenient Murphy bed for added versatility.
While Coastal Retreat stands as a gem in its own right, the real magic happens just down the lane on Crescent Beach. Guests can revel in the sun-kissed sands, enjoy leisurely strolls, or partake in the vibrant beachside activities. For fishing enthusiasts, a short walk around the corner leads to the renowned Matanzas Inlet, where the fishing is nothing short of spectacular.

This place should be taken off VRBO
This place was very disappointing. The house was rundown the yard was unkept, it needed repairs everywhere! Had we not had our adult children and their children with us we would have booked somewhere else.Absolutely Unbelievable.

Nope never again
Tub out of order! Only tub in house! Ants inside and out !pool wasn’t cleaned before arrival they sent someone 2 days later Coffee maker didn’t work but they brought a new one 2 days later and some ant spray! I have rented other properties in Florida and the cleaning fee should cover the whole property not just the inside but she said they don’t clean pool before we checked in for a week! Ok also lots of construction at beach access had to go down a steep hill to get to ocean! This was not in description of property! I understand it’s not in there control but it would have been a good heads up about the construction! This will definitely not be on list of places to stay!

Awesome place
We loved the house. From the location to the pool and hot tub on the back porch. My boys could walk down to the shore to fish and we werent too far from downtown St. Augustine. There was plenty of room for us to all have our own space when we needed a little nap. It was an awesome vacation.

Great stay
This was such an amazing stay! We were able to walk to the beach and enjoy it. Everything we needed for the beach was there. Beautiful views and so much space. The instructions to enter could have been a little bit more clearer but other than that , no problems.

Great location for a family vacation
The location of the home was perfect for our family, offering a walkable, low traffic beach with amazing sunrise/sunset views and a 15 minute drive to the more populated St. Augustine beach. The home easily a accommodated our family plus a view guests for sleeping arrangements. Neighbors are super friendly.
