This is a place to go if you just want to relax. Theres nothing (restaurants, entertainment etc) in walking distance, but Vilano and St Augustine are both just a short drive away. Would definitely recommend.

Our Favorite Beach House

This was the third time staying at Colleen's and it did not disappoint. The location of the house is perfect! There's plenty of room to spread out (inside & out). The beds are comfy and there's plenty of towels, toys & pantry items. We have created so many memories here, I would highly recommend staying here!!

slice of beach heaven

My new home away from home! I love being able to walk right out the back door and onto the beach. And almost just as important for me was being able to bring my dog and having the freedom to walk the beach without the public crowds. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Does not disappoint.

Thanksgiving 2024

Great location and very nice home. Needed more attention for check in. Freezer was full of ice because the icemaker won't shut off. Filled up the sink twice with ice cubes. Large flower pot broken in the driveway.

Great Beach stay!

This was a great house! Love the environmental friendly geothermal air conditioning system and prefer to keep our Florida beaches free from chemicals. But Just a note if you happen to have a ‘pregnant’ or ‘sensitive to smells’ person in your party… sitting on the deck you may experience a bit of a sulfur smell when air is running.

A Perfect Week

What a wonderful week at this property! The beach was incredible and it felt so private. We loved the shady area under the porch: it was the perfect spot to stay out of the sun and still enjoy the ocean. The house has great views from almost every room and we really appreciated the extra towels. Hope to return next year!

We would love to rent it again in the future. Convenient to St. Augustine and the private beach access was just amazing. My wife and I, our 4 kids, and my father all had plenty of room and everything we needed to make our vacation great.

Enjoyable 2nd Stay

This was the second time we had stayed at this wonderful beachfront home. There is plenty of room to sprawl out on the main floor and a large deck to enjoy meals on or just hang out. The best part is the ocean is only steps away! There are plenty of beach chairs and beach towels and even some boogie boards! We had no troubles checking in or out and everything was a breeze during our stay. I would highly recommend this lovely little beach retreat!

Perfect beach get-away

If you are looking for a place close enough to St Augustine to take in the sights but far enough to enjoy privacy and relax on a lovely deck right in the oceans edge, this place fits the bill. Great host communication.
