getaway beach house
we were looking for a quick get away beach front house and this is exactly what this house was ! super close to all the attractions of st augustine. location was great. this house is not a fancy modern house it’s more of a beach vintage style type perfect for any age. the best part for us was it was located on the beach and the deck was awesome plenty of room to hang out and eat lunch or just layout and soak up the sun. if you want a beachfront house close to town this is the house! we will definitely be back in the future.

We had a wonderful week staying at Cathy's place in Velano Beach. Right on the beach, two doors down from a great restaurant. The bay window in the amazing great room was also a fantastic plus for those hot mornings before the breeze picked up on the beach. We could enjoy our coffee and the view without having to be in the sweltering August heat. This house has 3 bedrooms, but it was just four adults. We kept the door to the primary closed off from the hallway to the other bedrooms and basically had a suite for one couple and the primary for the other. Never felt on top of each other. It was also perfect for our two small dogs. There is a small, public beach access nearby, but with only houses around and little public parking, it felt like we had the beach to ourselves. Cathy was super responsive whenever I reached out with a question. We'll definitely be visiting here again in the future!

Perfect house in St. Augustine
This was our second stay at this house. The house is great, is right on the beach, and the few from the deck is great. Location wise it’s perfect. Vilano Beach is just north of Downtown St. Augustine and is a great, quite beach. You’re also less than 7 min to Publix and 10 min to Downtown. We’ll definitely be back and 100% recommend.

Family Vacay 2022
This was a first of it’s kind of vacation for our family. The house was perfect for us. The view of the ocean was absolutely gorgeous, along with the view from the master bedroom through the French doors! We saw dolphins from the deck almost every morning of the week. Truly beach front. Cathy was super easy to work with and quickly responded to any questions. The place was stocked with everything needed to make it completely functional.. Just walk in with your belongings and you’re ready to go! I can’t say enough great things!!

Our young adult kids visited the second week and it was great to share this special, peaceful spot with them. Our dog remembered the home right away and couldn’t wait to run in the beach each day.
Cathy has done a great job continuing to make improvements to the property.

Annual girls trip.
Location couldn't be better - right on beach and beautiful views. Easy drive to St Augustine . House is older, but nice deck and open concept living. The place was clean and no complaints. But should mention pets are allowed and one person in our party with pet allergies could not set on couch because of dog hairs on pillows on furniture from other renters.

Beautiful dog-friendly home on the beach!
We had a wonderful time and loved this rental home! It is literally right on the beach - you wake up every morning looking out from the master bedroom to see the sun rise over a beautiful and quiet beach! The open and comfortable design of the house suited us and our dogs beautifully. It is well-equipped with everything that you need to cook in, plus plenty of towels, linens and cleaning equipment to keep the home neat (and sand-free)! The large and spacious deck is fantastic!! We spent several afternoons out enjoying the warm weather and reading, with our dogs snoozing after their long walks on the beach! We enjoyed going into St. Augustine (a great walking town), and also found some great hiking trails at the local GTM Preserve. Cathy was a gem to work with - she was friendly and welcoming, checked in with us regularly and immediately responded to our questions. We highly recommend this wonderful get-away on Vilano Beach!

Location perfect- conditions mediocre
Loved the location- bathrooms need to be gutted. Place needs to be deep cleaned- dead bugs in the bathroom lights. Makes me think Covid cleaning is non existent. Basic upgrades like towels that aren’t falling apart or stained- providing keurig pods- shampoo, soap, and conditioner… would have been nice (typical of all other places I’ve stayed). There is a floor lamp that is duct taped together. Not all lights have bulbs both interior and exterior. No tin foil, seran wrap or Tupperware if you are trying to cook in. Zero spices or oils. Interior needs to be painted in halls and doors need to be replaced.
Outdoor furniture was great! Newly resided (hopeful it will be painted white or kept gray with a fun front door color). Wonderful new exterior windows and doors. Living room furniture, large table and kitchen are perfect for the beach. Loved the wood floors.
If the owners would redo the master bathroom I would suggest putting a stackable washer and dryer where the tiny shower is and put a normal size tub/shower where the side by side washer/dryer currently are.
I would rent again only after improvements are made- the price warrants basic upgrades and amenities.

Wonderful property
I cannot say enough great things about this house. The location, view from the huge deck, & direct access to the beach is the best you could ask for. The house was very clean when we arrived & decorated beautifully throughout. There is every utensil & dish you could need in the kitchen, plenty of towels in the bathrooms, big closets in each bedroom, AND tons of beach chairs/floats/toys for our use. Below the house is the perfect place for outdoor games in the shade (or if it rains) or a nap in the hammock- the afternoon breeze is unbelievable. The beach is very wide & very unpopulated at this spot so there more than plenty of place for kids & dogs to run.
Communication with the owner was amazing before & throughout our stay.
Overall this house was everything we hoped + more.

Funky Beach Cottage
The beachfront location is absolutely spectacular. Beach for miles and superb views from the main living area and master bedroom. The road is VERY busy and noisy, parking is limited for anything more than one large vehicle on the property, (public access area next door for additional options if needed.)
The pictures are a bit outdated for the beach access due to recent beach and dune renourishment. There are no steps/seawall anymore, just a steep dune to descend and clamber back up.
The house is funky and fun, the decor is excellent and the furniture modern and well-appointed. The kitchen is a bit outdated, could use a new stove and dishwasher, (suggestion only, not a complaint.) Well appointed with cooking utensils and dishes, glasses, etc. The bathrooms are also a bit outdated, but clean and serviceable.
We enjoyed the sun deck which had a table, chairs, and a sun lounger. It was super hot the week we were there, appreciated the air conditioning!
We enjoyed our stay very much and would return happily. Thank you for sharing your super cool beach cottage!

Lovely home needs TLC
Overall enjoyed our stay, charming and rustic home with amazing views... just a few things that would make it worth the price (better pillows on the beds; burners that work on the stove; more comfortable seating in the living room area; repair loose nails sticking out of boards on the deck; repair broken chaise lounge; and replace the coffee maker that was broken by a previous guest... we were told to use the Keurig but, Keurig pods are not environmentally friendly, so we went to Dollar General to get a normal coffee maker for the week).
Other than those few issues, this was a lovely home and we enjoyed our stay overall. Thank you.

This property was just stunning. The location cannot be beat- right on the ocean and magical sunrises. We had the most relaxing vacation here. We didn't want to leave the house. Even on some chilly days/nights, just sitting inside looking out at the view could not be beat.
The ocean is your backyard and we were allowed to bring along our dog who had never seen a beach before! We had a great time and Cathy is such a responsive owner. The house is a rustic beach house, nothing fancy inside but has everything you need for a perfect, relaxing vacation. Thank you we hope to be back next year.
