Listen to the waves

We had a great time staying in this quaint home on the beach. We love listening to the rolling waves and watching the sunrise over the ocean. This is a very quiet beach house without many people on the beach when we were there. All the amenities were there and readily available. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet sea side place to get away!

This was our second time staying at this property and we have loved it each time. Everything is great inside and of course outside being right on the water. The host was great with communication before and during the stay with whatever we needed.

Not completely satisfied

Overall it was ok. Some problems did arise. The kitchen was infested with big ants. The hall bathtub didn’t drain properly. The tv in the master bedroom didn’t work properly ( could only get one channel). The location and surrounding were good

Fabulous

This is our fifth or sixth summer staying at this property--for a reason. Hard to find a better spot--right on the beach, no close neighbors, and very responsive hosts. I don't know if it's being on the beach or being stuffed with seafood, or the mattress, but I sleep better here than anywhere!

Relaxing Stay

We found the property to include all we needed for a relaxing long weekend. The view was exceptional. The only drawback that didn't affect us because we ate out was the condition of the grill.

Wonderful location

Property was clean and very close to beach. We had beach to ourselves. We loved the privacy. The owner was a phone call away. The only thing I can think of that needs improvement is the commodes need to be taller.. My husband and I are in our 70’s and it makes a difference. Will definitely stay again. Loved it. We loved the privacy. House was wonderful.

The Perfect Spot

This was the second time we've stayed here. We've rented many houses in the area over the years, but this is definitely the one that's perfect for us. Great size for 2-4 people. A beautiful, quiet beach with very few people (what we want!). Easy access to Ponte Vedra, Jax Beach, or St. Augustine. The house is clean and comfortable and communication with Rick and Sharon is quick and easy. Top notch rental!!

Best House Yet

This is my family and I's 4th time staying in an airb&b on this beach. This was our favorite house we have stayed in here. It was clean, spacious, and had amazing views! The absolute best part of the house is the bottom patio. We had a 2 year old and it was a perfect place for him to get a break from the sun and safely run around with his toys. We also really appreciated the driveway. It was easy to spot, park, and turn around in which can be hard to come by in that area.

Beautiful private location

This cottage is perfect for a quiet getaway — even in winter! The location is stunning and private. You can see the waves from one of the beds. The back deck is perfect for stargazing. Comfortable beds and couches.
