The apartment was perfect for our girls family getaway. Loved the artwork painted by the owners. There were 3 of us and although you could fit 4 since the pullout was a double, I thought it was great for 3 people. Kitchen was well-stocked and beach towels and chairs were provided. The screened in porch was an added bonus, as were the washer and dryer. We could not have asked for a better location within walking distance of the historic area, great restaurants, San Sebastian winery and the Distillery. Short drive to the beach. It was absolutely perfect and I would highly recommend staying here.

Exactly What We Needed
Property was exactly as described! This is a quaint getaway with personality. Very comfortable and well furnished. It is a pleasure to come back to after a day out. Very reasonably pricing, clean, and the screened in porch is a great morning spot. Check-in was a breeze lock and code system worked perfectly every time. No key needed. Location is convenient, and the beach is a short drive with sites along the way. Owners provided helpful information and communications were warm and friendly. I would stay here again.

Super cozy, classy home close to The Old City.
My wife and I came to St. Augustine for a long weekend and celebrate our anniversary. We we very impressed with the location and the beautiful views overlooking the river marsh out back ( With a grill also)! The effeciency was clean and even had nice paintings inside. We even had a bottle of wine waiting for us! The owners have done a wonderful job with the place. Walking the streets, exploring and dining is what we did. Everthing was close. We would come back here again for sure.

Beautiful little retreat
Kinda like Goldilocks, I found everything to be just right. The comfy bed, hot shower, and even a washer/dryer which I was so grateful for. I'm hoping my husband will come with me next time so that I can stay longer and enjoy the peaceful outdoor spaces. While I didn't do any cooking, the kitchen seemed nicely stocked with the essentials. The owners made essential spices available along with coffee, filters, tea, and creamer. I really hope you enjoy your stay at Harbor Island, just not when we hope to return :)

St Augustine trip
This was our first time to visit the city of Saint Augustine. Which, in fact, is truly magical. Michael and Hyacinth’s VRBO was the perfect place for us! Close to all the sites and within a short drive to the beaches. The space was perfect. From the easy communication, great off street designated parking, comfortable furnishings, washer and dryer and lovely artwork created by the owners, this place is a winner! Our favorite part of this VRBO was the screened porch where we enjoyed an evening cocktail while watching the sunset across the wetlands. We absolutely recommend this charming old style space with all the necessary modern amenities for anyone looking for a great stay in this quaint town!
