Wonderful property, gorgeous views, clean and spacious. Literally couldn't be in a better spot for sunrise views and blissful days on the beach. The covered outdoor porch and dining room was so perfect—an outdoor living room while you hear the surf come in! Perfect place for our family of 6.

Awesome stay with an incredible view

The property was very well kept with tons of amenities. The hostess was super responsive and ensured we had the perfect vacation. There is a screen room on the back that gives a great view of the ocean and at hightide you are literally just feet away from the water. We would definitely stay again.

Amazing beach front luxury!!

We cannot say enough great things about our stay at this property! The home is stylish and comfortable and fit our whole family and the beach is pristine! You feel like you’re in your own private resort! We love the fact that we felt like we were away from it all, but all the conveniences were a couple of minutes Instacart and Uber eats. We are already looking for stays for next year. This will definitely become a family tradition!

Summer delight

We have been doing a family vacation for about 5 years. Everyone in our family including kids say this was the best family vacation we have done. The location is great with nice restaurants close by. Close to St Augustine which is great one day visit. The beach access and view from the house was amazing. The house set up and cleanliness was perfect. The air conditioner worked great. The communication with the host was excellent. She stayed in touch and responded to all questions in a very timely manner. She also was prompt to respond to our request to check on some jewelry my daughter left at the house and arranged for return. No problems at all on this vacation. Will definitely come back and would recommend to anyone. Could not have been a better vacation.

Terrific oceanfront location. 10-15 minutes from shopping, coffee shop. House is comfortable with all of the desired appliances and kitchen utensils. Opportunity for improvement: equipped with only the necessary minimum of basic items like paper towel (1 roll), towels (total of 2 full size in owners bath), and no spices or cooking essentials (such as no salt, pepper). Deck and stairs to beach weathering but ok.Overall, a comfortable and fun location for a few days with our grandchildren. Thank you!

Great Beach Weekend

Beautiful home right on the beach. The number of beds makes the place great for larger groups, and we enjoyed spending time on the back porch listening to the ocean. Plenty of nice restaurants nearby with additional option of a short drive into historic downtown St. Augustine. Suzete was responsive, helpful, and very accommodating. Would absolutely recommend staying at this property.

Players Championship Weekend

I stayed at this property with 10 of my friends during the week of The Players Championship. The hose was in incredible shape and the beachfront location is tough to beat. 15 minutes from St. Augustin and 30 minutes from Ponte Vedra, this is the perfect place to relax on the beach and cruise into town for a night out. Suzette was an amazing host and if we ever go back down to the Players we hope to be able to stay here again.

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Overall, the stay was good, house was clean and location was good. However, there were a few issues with the experience I wanted to pass along to future renters to set the expectations with this property. First, the listing was incorrect. Originally the listing showed four bathrooms, but when we arrived, there were only three. This has been corrected but I am not sure we would have rented knowing this. There was also a hot tub on the listing that is not there either. Second, the toiletries/ supplies provided were very minimal. There was a very limited supply of toilet paper, dish soap, paper towels, etc. and no kitchen seasonings, oil ect. While they did supply a “starter” set of this, expect to purchase everything if your stay is more than a day or two and if you want to cook anything. In addition, there was only one set of towels per guest with no spares. For a week’s stay, we had to wash them several times (no laundry detergent was provided). Finally, there was NO beach gear (chairs, umbrella, etc.). I understand this is not required but every other house I have rented (beach or mountains) have had some of these things for guest to use – especially if you fly in and can’t bring this type of stuff. This house had none of that so expect to bring your own. While the host did provide what was needed to start (there was a good number of pots, pans, plates, etc), not much else is in the house and you will have to bring or purchase when you get here – so expect that when renti

Christmas week 2022

Beautiful oceanfront home! Lots of space for our kids and grandkids. We had to make the space young kid friendly upstairs but other than that it met our needs. The week warmed up which allowed us to use the screened in porch for a few days as well! The decor was very pretty and furniture comfortable. Kitchen had all the supplies needed for cooking and eating in. Even a crockpot brand instant pot which was awesome. Plus a small toaster oven and air fryer. With only one oven all of that was super helpful! The view was perfect and ocean waves were close in high tide- lulled you to sleep at night when timing was right! A favorite spot to sit and drink coffee, chat, or read was at the kitchen high top table surrounded by sliding doors looking out over the ocean - a great place to watch sunrise. We also appreciated the beach towels, starter dish soap, toilet paper, salt/pepper, things like that. The sand was a beautiful bronze color much of the time and when the tide went out, there were loads of shells. We would highly recommend a stay at this home. Suzette was a wonderful host and very easy to work with and responsive to any questions we had.

Perfect family vacation!

This is a beautiful property, right on the beach. This part of the beach is very quiet and almost gives the impression that you have your own private beach. 12 of our family members stayed here ranging in ages from 13 to 83. Everyone was stunned with the beauty of the house, the incredible equipped kitchen and wet bar, the comfortable bedrooms and easy access to the beach. We had several activities planned while in St. Augustine, but enjoyed the house and beach so much, we found ourselves just wanting to stay at the beach house. We made memories for a lifetime! The host was amazing to work with; easy communication, rapid response time to any question or request, and very friendly. The family all said that they want to come back to Ponte Vedra, and to stay at this property. Thanks for making our vacation so special!
