Perfect location!

This home is perfectly located. It’s tidy and nicely stocked. It was easy to walk to the beach with our kid and two dogs with all the beach gear that was available to use during our stay. Being able to enjoy the historic district just minutes away was priceless. And most importantly, having a fully fenced in yard for our two dogs was priceless!

Perfect Place For A Family Vacation!

This was our first time in St. Augustine and this location had it all. We appreciated the beach wagon and sand toys! We found the location perfect and the house well stocked with basic necessities. Publix is super close if there’s anything you need and lots of great places to eat within walking distance. The fenced in yard for our dog was a huge plus. It’s a truly lovely little house with great hosts. We will definitely be back!

Family Beach Fun

The house was perfect for our family. It was a very short walk to the beach and restaurants. It had all the equipment we needed for a fun at the beach, including chairs, boogie boards, bikes, beach toys, etc. We had plenty of room with a comfortable living room, 2 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. The outdoor shower was perfect for a quick rinse when returning from the beach. We would love to return soon and would definitely recommend for families visiting the area.

Amazing Stay at Nautical Smile

After staying in many VRBO homes in different cities this may have been our favorite. The location was within easy walking distance to beach and shops, the kids loved the bikes. Home was clean and had everything we needed. Host checked in after first day to make sure everything was going well. We are within driving distance so brought our own beach set up but didn't need to. This home had chairs, beach umbrella, sand toys and wagons in great condition which has never been my experience with beach homes. If we come back to the area would stay here again in a heart beat.

Great location

This house was a perfect location to walk to the beach and to restaurants/coffee! It had a great backyard for our dog. A few things can be improved. We had a crawling baby that revealed some less than clean floors, lots of dust, couple of broken drawers on dresser, wobbly toilet. Kitchen and bathroom had everything you need. It was a great place to sleep and have as a home base. They have everything you need for the beach! Thanks for letting us stay!

Steps from everything - perfect stay at the beach!

This is a terrific property - directly as advertised - 2/2 right at the beach. You are a very short walk to beach access from the house - the backyard is huge and has ample room for a pet to run around and play. They also have a nice patio area. The place was absolutely perfect for our almost week getaway - we were in town for a concert and the Ampitheatre was very close by. We were able to park for free at a nearby church and walk to the show. The downtown area where the historic locations are was close by too. Lots of shopping and dining - way too many things to do in a short 5 day stay - we look forward to returning to St. Augustine Beach soon and hope Nautical Smile is available when we come back!

Nautical Smile Perfection

Nautical Smile definitely is the perfect beach house inside and out! Our Kelby girl loved the back yard! Decor was on point, had everything you needed, and the host was quick to respond to any and all questions! Location was excellent! One block to the beach, easy access, close to restaurants, and the best part was we were smashed between two Ice Cream shops!!! lol We will definitely stay here when we next visit St. Augustine!
