The Space:
This home is perfect for a couple or a family looking to stay for a comfy stay. The beach is just steps away from the front door! As far as location, you cannot beat the walkable proximity to local restaurants, bars, coffee shops and attractions!

The kitchen has all of the essentials for a comfortable stay, including all cooking basics (olive oil, salt, pepper), plenty of dish ware, coffee machine (with filters and ground coffee provided), microwave, stove/oven, big fridge and brand new dishwasher!

Washer and dryer as well as all supplies have been stocked for your convenience. Linens and towels are included.

Enjoy the BBQ grill, situated on the private patio just outside the back door!

Just a few feet away and your toes are in the sand! You can't beat the value!

There is another unit situated on the property towards the back where we host short-term rental guests. They have their own space completely separate from this home.

THE LAYOUT - Unit A has a solid 2/1 layout:
BEDROOMS: One bedroom has a Queen bed and the other a Double.
BATHROOM: is situated between the 2 bedrooms. The bathroom features a walk in shower.
ADDITIONAL SLEEPING: Full Sofabed

LAUNDRY SERVICE: We have laundry machines in the house but on vacation, it's up to you if you want to do laundry at all! If you would like to partake, our brand new commercial laundromat The Queen's Laundry is offering pick up and drop off wash-dry-fold service to the St. Augustine area. The cost is per pound and they will work out payment with you directly. They simply ask for 1 day's advanced notice for a pickup request and a 24 hour turnaround time for completing and returning your laundry. Ask us for more information!

SECURITY DEPOSIT: In lieu of a traditional security deposit charge or authorization hold for a large sum, we will instead charge a one-time non-refundable incidentals fee to your stay of $99. This fee acts as insurance for minor damages and covers you up to a max of $1000 of damage. You may elect to increase your incidentals fee for more coverage ($99 for $1000, $149 for $1500, $199 for $2000 and so on and so forth). *IMPORTANT: Guests must report to us any damage that has taken place during their stay before checkout, otherwise the incidental fee coverage is null and void. In this case, we reserve the right to charge the full amount of repairing or replacing the damaged items to you. Your insurance coverage amount ($500, $1000, $1500, etc) is not the max that you are responsible for. If damages exist beyond your coverage amount we will document this with photos and professional estimates of repair, and bill you for the repairs or replacements.

Guest Access:
Entire space is included in this rental. Please, make yourself at home. The home located adjacent to this house is entirely separate. They have their own space and their own amenities. **The deck above their unit is private and for their use only.

Dog friendly ONLY other pets will not be considered due to allergies. **WITH FEE** If you are bringing a dog, please reach out to us directly about our policy and fees!

**Airbnb Guests: Airbnb does not automatically include pet fees (due to an integration gap with our software we have to add pet fees to your confirmed reservation manually), please reach out if you plan to bring your dog!**

The Neighborhood:
The house is walkable to a ton of my favorite places at the beach! Try Sunset Grille, Stir It Up, and Salt Life for a bite to eat.

The Kookaburra coffee shop is just a few short blocks away, and is a local favorite.

Just a 10 minute walk up A1A is the pier where you can park and go fishing or enjoy the weekly Wednesday farmers market from 9am-12pm.

Getting Around:
We recommend renting a car to get around, or heading over to Drifters 2 blocks away and renting bikes!

Other Things to Note:
Guests must be 21 or older to book.

There is another home situated on the property where we host short-term rental guests. They have their own space completely separate from this home.

It is important to note that the driveway is shared with the other unit on the premises. You may of course park in the driveway and it is LIKELY that you will be able to, but please remember, there may be guests in the other unit who brought a car and need to park as well. Please be considerate of each other. Street parking is FREE on 5th Street so this is another excellent and convenient option, located right outside the front door.

Please remember that you're staying in a house, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect. If any problems arise, we will do our best to take action ASAP, but there is no one living on site 24/7.

Pack N Play Available Upon Request with 48 hours notice.

One dog maximum is allowed - no weight limit.

Our dog rent fee is $30.00/Night, $175.00/Week, with a maximum of $300.00/Month.
-This fee is added on to your total after booking confirmation.
-The fee doesn't cover damage caused by your pet. We will provide photos and a handyman quote to fairly assess repair charges.
-Pets must be fully housebroken, freshly bathed prior to arrival and treated with flea and tick meds within 30 days of check in.
-Please share with us any details regarding weight, age, if crated when left alone, if allowed on furniture. If you are bringing a dog, please reach out to us directly about our policy and fees!

LOST AND FOUND ITEMS: We charge a $50 minimum to ship forgotten items, which must be paid in advance. For heavier items, we ask that you pre-pay the $50 and we will acquire any additional shipping cost and bill this to you accordingly + 25% service fee.

Interaction with Guests:
I am here for you during your stay, but our level of interaction is up to you. I'm only a phone call/message away. You will be able to self checkin upon arrival.

Great Place

A great place to stay! Dani and their team were outstanding to work with. Top Notch Host. Pictures don't do the cottage justice. You can be in the water in 5 minutes. We loved the fact that a laundry room was in the cottage. Big Bonus. Huge patio outback with patio lights and covered deck. If this is open Book It, you will not sorry.

Nice little cabin the by beach

We had a nice stay here for a few nights in December. The one thing to note is that the bridge to the beach on 5th was out due to hurricane damage. They were working on it though and it should hopefully reopen soon. It was definitely a nice place to get away from it all for a few days.

Overall, great

Like most things, you have pros & cons. Pros: This house was in a great location…less than 15 min drive to historic district (during xmas holidays). It’s on a dead end street, very quiet and yes, probably 100 steps to the beach. I love that the house, Beach & town are all pet friendly. Kitchen is very well equipped. The house is small, but spacious & comfy. Nice furniture & decor. Great water pressure & hot water & loved that they provided plenty of body wash, shampoo & conditioner. The house itself has its cracks & cobwebs, but overall clean & well maintained. Cons: not enough towels. 3 of us stayed here and we were provided 2 very cheap, thin & small bath towels; plenty of hand towels, but not enough to shower - had to grab a beach towel. Toilet paper.. for the love of Pete, our bottoms would greatly appreciate good quality toilet paper. The paper they provided was horribly thin & like sand paper…no lie when I say my bottom was irritated :( Then, there’s the master bed…my husband & I slept bad every night. It caves in the middle & very uncomfortable, overall. My back was screaming the whole time. The Bed in 2nd room was fine according to my daughter. No throws/blankets. The days we were there it was cold & we’re not huge fans of the heater, so we kind of struggled bc there were no extra blankets. Also, pictures in the description shows grass in the backyard…there is none…it’s dirt & one of the reasons I chose this property was bc of the grass for my small dog. Lots of rules posted throughout the house & that takes away from the relax - homey feeling…” if you do this, you’ll get charged…if you don’t do that, you’ll get charged”. I’ve stayed at numerous properties & I’ve never seen this. I understand it’s someone’s property, but I was uneasy the whole time that I’d do something wrong. OVERALL, the house is GREAT. A few minor changes can go really far & make for a better experience. I recommend it - just plan on taking toilet paper & towels!

Great Place

The beach cottage was great - great place and great location. One house from the beach and walking distance to places to eat and drink. The management team was great to work with and very responsive. The cottage could use a refresh of outdoor furniture so we could have better enjoyed the backyard and front porch.

About the host

Host profile image
Hi! I'm Dani - located in St. Augustine, FL! I went to high school and college here, so I know a TON about St. Augustine and all there is to see and do. I work with vacation rental owners in other parts of the country as well (for example, a mountain views home in Blue Ridge, GA!)

I love to travel myself, so I really believe in the AirBnB travel model. My dream vacation is a month in Tuscany with my dog Thor (he's a Shephard/Doberman mix), touring vineyards and drinking wine; then going back to Rome to spend a month there!

I am the owner and founder of Euphoria Vacation Homes, and there is a whole team of us here in Northeast Florida excited to host you!

No matter what you need on your stay, I am more than happy to retrieve it, bring it to you, or advise you as best I can on how to get it. Nothing is off the table!

What are you waiting for? Message us! I love my guests and am excited to speak with you and get your dream vacation underway!
