The Sea Turtle Inn

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Uptown St. Augustine is known for its eclectic boutiques, restaurants, and galleries, and your charming two-bedroom, two bath hideaway fits right in. Built in 1915 and offering 1,200 square feet of beautifully remodeled living space, The Sea Turtle Inn is one of the city’s best gems. The chef’s kitchen is a foodie’s dream come true with granite countertops and high-end stainless steel appliances. This iconic home captures the spirit of a bygone era, from the master suite to the sunlit common area and private backyard. The beach is minutes away.

Bold colors and tall windows welcome you into the living room, where a 42” flat-screen sits above a cozy electric fireplace. The comfy sleeper sofa provides extra sleeping space. Granite countertops gleam in the gourmet kitchen, outfitted with a full suite of stainless steel appliances and a two-person island. The open-concept common area is perfect for entertaining. Set out home-cooked dishes on the island, then gather at a country-style table for six to share a special meal.

Sea Turtle Inn sleeps up to four guests between the two bedrooms and a sleeper sofa in the living room. Sleep soundly on a king bed in the master suite, where a coastal color palette and 42” TV make it easy to relax. The en-suite master bathroom is appointed with a jetted tub/shower combination and a double vanity. The guest room is furnished with a lovely queen bed, and the guest bathroom features a pristine tub/shower combination.

Fragrant gardens surround the covered front porch, where a pair of rocking chairs invite you to greet the day with a cup of fresh coffee. The fenced yard provides more space to relax in the Florida sunshine. Discover comfy lounge chairs and a gas grill on the paver patio.

Dine out at a plethora of neighborhood eateries after a day at Anastasia State Park’s pristine beaches (3 miles). This uptown locale is also within walking distance of the Castillo de San Marcos fortress (0.8 miles) and Colonial Quarter (1 mile). Those who love history, museums, architecture, and the culinary arts will find much to explore close to home.

Bring ear plugs
Beware - there’s a train nearby that runs overnight and blows a very loud horn disrupting our sleep. The lack of transparency about this on the listing is shockingly awful. The house is lovely, though.

Beautiful Home!
My boyfriend and I stayed at this property for 5 days during the 4th of July weekend. It was such a beautiful house. Everything was provided to us and very comfortable! Couple complaints we had were the check in instructions. Took us awhile to realize that the main entrance was in the back. The keypad was a tad finicky and not user friendly. Clearer instructions would’ve been nice! Also - we ran out of paper towels and trash bags during our stay. Otherwise the house was very clean and cozy! Definitely recommend!

Lovely VRBO
Sea Turtle Inn was immaculate and totally updated. Location was great-~.6 from St. George Street and .3 mile from hop on hop off trolley stop. If you are walking to town at night, remember to turn outside lights on so you can see your way to the door! If you are a light sleeper, I suggest brining ear plugs-there is a freight train that you can hear in the middle of the night (we couldn’t figure out where it was in relation to the house, but we heard it) Overall we were more than pleased with the house. PS- It’s not as red as in the pictures.

Great house, Near Attractions, but Noisy
We had a really nice time in the house it was beautifully decorated well well maintained and was fully stocked with everything from a KitchenAid mixer to serving platters to laundry detergent. The owner was kind enough kind enough to help us with a garbage disposal issue. You can walk to attractions, ice cream shops, and restaurants. The one challenge we had was it's very close to a busy road so it has quite a bit of traffic noise you get used to it after a couple of days but those first few nights sleeping was a challenge.

Place was excellent. Only issues we’re in check in: 1. Unclear that entry was in rear. 2. Door lock temperamental. Even property mgr. had trouble. But the place was excellent and we would stay there again.

Gotta go back....
Was a nice place to stay, we weren't there long enough to see everything, need a week or more to experience St. Augustine. My only complaint is that there was no way to open a wine bottle. That shouldn't be a problem for the next guest because I bought one and left it behind for our next stay.

Super Accommodations
The Sea Turtle Inn exceeded our expectations for accommodations and cleanliness. One of the factors for renting this location was its walkability to the Historic District. No traffic or parking issues for us, we walked almost everywhere and loved it. Please don't be scared off by the interior pictures of the living room. The red, is not near as red, as the pictures indicate.

Wonderful home and location
The property was very clean and well appointed. Everyone in our party said they would stay again. It was in a convenient location walking to many attractions. Two items. Never found the switch for the garbage disposal and the 10 digit door code was sometime difficult to enter in the prescribed time. Overall it was a great home.

Location!
Our family of four stayed in this home and had a wonderful visit! It's within walking distance to so many things, including a large playground! We brought the kids scooters which was ideal for getting around. You're closer to a main road but when you're inside, it was no bother at all. Highly recommend

Fantastic House Convenient to Everything
Great weekend stay at the Sea Turtle Inn. Beds were VERY comfortable and location was super convenient. My ONLY criticism is that there were no coffee supplies for the first morning--everything else was supplied: laundry soap, beach towels, shampoo, etc. Oh well! McDonalds was close by.

Sea Turtle Rocks
The Sea Turtle is a great little house in a terrific location. Off street parking and walking distance to shops, dinning, attractions and history. The house is well appointed and maintained. If you want to experience Saint Augustine this is a great place to stay.

Terrific house in a great location.
The Sea Turtle is a great little house in a very convenient location for walking to the attractions in St. Augustine. Well appointed and well maintained, a great place to stay. Unfortunately, VACASA is not managing the rental very well. Their communications are confusing, they can’t keep the contract dates straight and they change the door lock code seemingly at random. Vacasa took over our contract from Turnkey (who always did I an excellent job) and blames the craziness on that. I’m not impressed with Vacasa’s systems and would hesitate to entrust them with another booking.
