The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill.
Located just south of downtown St. Augustine and close to everything that St. Augustine has to offer, you’ll be glad when you choose to stay at our beautiful beach home! There are bicycles for rent, as well, nearby. Butler Beach, where this house is located, is known as one of the most beautiful beaches in the northeast of Florida. It’s an expansive white powder beach! You’ll find fisherman, bikers when the tide recedes, walkers, surfers, kite boarders, shell gatherers, and of course sun bathers! St. Augustine city center, only 10 minutes north, is the most ancient, gorgeous city in Florida...and America for that matter! It hosts restaurants, stunning historic churches, some of the finest art galleries and a myriad of chic boutique shops. The first Friday of every month features an Art Walk, where some galleries even serve refreshments and stay open in the evening. As you walk cobble stone streets you have opportunity to explore history all around you, often hearing church bells. You can sight see through horse and buggy or trolley tours, or just shop til you drop! You will want to return year after year!
Pets and Service Animals: You must let us know if you are bringing an animal to the home, even if it is a service animal! It's important to let the cleaners know. Up to 2 dogs are allowed with a nonrefundable pet fee. They must be less than 50lbs each and no aggressive breeds. NO CATS! Please do not allow your dogs to jump up onto the beds or couches. If the dogs are accustomed to being allowed on the furniture at home, please bring blankets to protect the surfaces. If you forget to bring blankets, let us know and we will provide you with some. If you bring a pet and do not tell us or pay the fee, we will charge your damage deposit for the pet fee plus $100 for the unexpected extra services required to clean the house.
Important info about pool heating and fees: Both the spa and the pool will be at the same temperature if you choose to heat the pool because they share the same plumbing and heater. Most people prefer a heated spa in colder temperatures to a heated pool because the spa is set to 101 degrees and the pool heater would be set to 85 degrees. If the daytime air temp doesn't get above 58 degrees the pool will have a difficult time staying heated. The heating of the spa is included with your stay. If you want to heat the entire pool we have an additional heating fee of $199 plus $25 per night to maintain the temperature. If you arrive at the house and change your mind about the pool heating, the initial heating fee of $199 will not be refunded.
The cleaning company provides a limited amount of basic necessities (toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher/laundry soap, etc.) to get you started, you will want to bring some with you. Garbage and recycling must be taken out to the street Sunday night for Monday morning pickup.
The grill is NOT cleaned by the cleaning crew, it is your responsibility to clean it before and after you use it. We do not provide charcoal, you will need to bring all items you need to use the grill.
We don't offer refunds or reschedule stays during hurricane season, even if there is an evacuation order. Please purchase trip insurance for your stay if this is a concern.

Wow! What a retreat. Due to surgeries, we had to curtail our 40th anniversary trip. We were looking for a quite place with a pool / hot tub without the neighbors gawking over the fence. This was it. Very clean, quite, and had several restaurants nearby. We really enjoyed eating out back under the tiki hut.The first night, the smoked detector started a slow chirp late in the evening. We called and they came out and fixed it right away. Would definitely would stay here again!

Love Tiki Time
This is a great property for a group of 10. The kids loved the pool and the outside area. The adults loved visiting outside under the palapa. The home is 0.6 miles from the free beach parking at Butler Beach. We could get to St. Augustine, restaurants, etc in 30 minutes or less. After a busy day in the city it was nice to come back to a quiet neighborhood to relax and unwind for the night!

Truly a vacation
The home was exactly as pictured and the communication with the owners was exceptional. The flow of the house was perfect with plenty of room to spread out. We spent so much time in the backyard enjoying the pool, hot tub, and tiki bar. Lots of nights were spent playing board games under the tiki hut and the decorative lights and fans made it even more special. It was a quick drive to the beach and some days the kids rode their bikes. We just love St. Augustine and we will be sure to book this house next time we are back in the area.

Home away from Home
Eight family members came together to enjoy a 3 night Concert at the St Augustine Amphitheater, as well as celebrate a husband/father 70th Birthday. We paid extra to gain early entrance. The house has 4 king size bedrooms and 2 bath. The kitchen is spacious, as is the whole house. The biggest draw besides the house eas the outdoor living space… Pool, Tiki Hut w/ table, and a Fire put area. Wonderful location, and quite neighborhood. Would definitely recommend this home for future guests. We did have a slight concern on the first day of arrival; however our concern was addressed, and handled quickly.

Tiki Time Birthday
We have stayed at the property on two occasions and it has been an excellent experience both times. I would recommend the home to anyone looking to vacation in the area. The beach (which permits 4x4 on the sand) is in close proximity, the amenities are great, and the home is clean. Historic downtown St. Augustine is a short drive away. I would stay again.

Three family couples stayed three nights.
The home was spacious, clean and comfortable.
We appreciated there were multiple king-size beds.
The outdoor area was particularly nice. Although it was chilly for a swim, we enjoyed sitting outside enjoying the sun and the neighborhood quiet.
Walkable to the beach. A good Cuban cafe, Paladar, was also walkable nearby.
We would stay here again!

We loved the home. It was spacious and the main bedroom was practically its own little apartment. The kitchen was well stocked. The pool was great, but you have to skim every morning due to the palms. The gorgeous beach was within short walking distance, but we chose to drive and park. St. Augustine's George Street was a short drive. We had an amazing family vacation. It was a blast!!!

Quick family getaway
House was very nicely renovated inside. Nicer than pictures were able to show. Property Mgrs very responsive and easy to deal with. Nice quiet neighborhood location with easy walk to the beach. Close to shops and restaurants and only 15 minutes to historic downtown. Two things I wish were in house were plastic cups for pool area and some Kleenex. We would definitely stay here again.
