58 includedI am an St. Augustine native and decided to throw my husband a birthday event in town for the weekend. We had a total of 6-adults stay in the home and while there were enough beds, I would have probably gone with something a little larger, just to allow for more space. Easy check in and check out. Very clean. We did not use the Anastasia Park pass, but the park is steps away from the home, so this would be super convenient for anyone using it. Plenty of restaurants near by and close to downtown, as it is about a 10-minute drive, if that. The garage is not accessible as stated. While there is a second floor area, it is also not accessible, so this can be a little deceiving when looking at the pictures. Otherwise, it was a great home to rent and we all had a good time. Would recommend this home.

I’ll start with this Home is 10 times better than what the pictures even show. The home is on a nice quiet street. It’s completely furnished with everything you need for your stay and can we talk about how clean this house is? It was such a breath of fresh air. The location was private, but still close to everything Saint Augustine has to offer and the guest book that’s in the home had some great suggestions for restaurants and things to do. My husband and I Both agree. This was the best rental we’ve gotten this far and we look forward to another stay. Thank you so much for a great stay in your beautiful home!

Quiet and cozy and clean. Great location for access to Anastacia State Park and St. Augustine amphitheater.
— Douglas Reynolds
Lovely beach house! The kitchen has everything a cook needs. Location is excellent next to the state park. Had a few things come up that required messaging the hosts - they responded promptly and were very kind. I recommend booking this house. Very good for small families.
There was so much to love about this house! It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked, they provided plenty of linens and even had beach gear/towels for us to use. The outdoor shower was private and had hot water, which made coming in from trips to the beach so much easier. We loved the proximity to the park, and bike riding in the area was very enjoyable and safe. Andrea and Danny were very responsive when we contacted them. Their home really felt like a "home away from home". We would definitely stay here again!
We had an amazing time at Danny and Andrea’s beautiful home! We felt right at home the moment we walked in! The layout is spacious and comfortable and everything was spotless. We enjoyed the access to Anastasia State park and the peaceful neighborhood. The home is a 10 minute drive from historic St. Augustine and close to some great restaurants and landmarks. We truly never wanted to leave and are looking forward to returning soon!
