About this property

Sunbather - Relax by the Heated Pool and Enjoy Water Views, Lots of Space!

Remodeled home on the Intracoastal canal with pool and water views! The sunsets are amazing! Cook up your daily catch for friends & family in the "over the top" backyard entertainment space. Complete with a private pool - this will be the go to spot for friends and family! There is NO boat dock and we do not allow boats in the water behind the house.

The interior of this newly renovated home is ready for your arrival! The kitchen is bright, airy, and stocked with everything you need to prepare your family's meals. 4 bedrooms and a relaxation room with day-bed and workspace mean there is ample room to spread out. When you are ready to come together, there is a fun outdoor gathering place near the pool that is sure to be a memory maker for your family. Our home is situated on the quieter, southern end of Anastasia Island and private beach walk-over.

The beach is just a short 2 minute drive away.

The history of St. Augustine is incomparable with almost any other on our coast. Founded in 1565 it is chock full of amazing places to visit, from the oldest house to the first schoolroom, to the impenetrable fort built by the Spanish. Lincolnville, just south of downtown St. Augustine takes you on a walking tour of the history of the civil rights movement noting where Martin Luther King stayed on numerous occasions. Needless to say, there’s also so many unique shops, and the restaurants are so varied and truly have an international flavor! There are things to do no matter the weather! You can take a free boat ride to Fort Matanzas and learn the history about the battles fought. Further south is Marineland where you can swim with dolphins!

The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill. There are always concerts at St. Augustine Amphitheatre and events at Francis Field as well. You will never run out of things to do here in St. Augustine. It is probably one of the most beautiful places in all of Florida, and for sure one of the most photographed! Come and see for yourself!

Pets and Service Animals: You must let us know if you are bringing an animal to the home, even if it is a service animal! It's important to let the cleaners know. Up to 2 dogs are allowed with a nonrefundable pet fee. They must be less than 50lbs each and no aggressive breeds. NO CATS! Please do not allow your dogs to jump up onto the beds or couches. If the dogs are accustomed to being allowed on the furniture at home, please bring blankets to protect the surfaces. If you forget to bring blankets, let us know and we will provide you with some. If you bring a pet and do not tell us or pay the fee, we will charge your damage deposit for the pet fee plus $100 for the unexpected extra services required to clean the house.

The pool heater thermostat is set to a temperature between 78 and 85 degrees F, depending on the time of the year. If the daytime air temp doesn't get above 58 degrees the pool will have a difficult time staying heated. Our pool technician comes on Tuesdays to check the chemicals and Fridays to clean. Our lawn/landscape professional comes on Wednesdays. These dates are subject to change based on weather or other factors, but in general that is when they are scheduled.

The cleaning company provides a limited amount of basic necessities (toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher/laundry soap, etc.) to get you started, you will want to bring some with you. Garbage and recycling must be taken out to the street Sunday night for Monday morning pickup.

Per St Johns County regulations, only ten people are allowed per rental, not counting children 12-years-old or younger. That means this property is allowed up to 10 adults and the rest of the guests must be 12 and under.

If you have a large family and need a second location please inquire with the host about our other property that is nearby.

We don't offer refunds or reschedule stays during hurricane season, even if there is an evacuation order. Please purchase trip insurance for your stay if this is a concern.

EV Charging: There is a fee of $5 per day if you will be charging an electric vehicle at the home.

Great Stay in At. Augustine!!

We traveled with our 3 sons and their significant others and what a great place!!! The pool area was a huge hit!!! We spent many hours hanging by the pool. We cooked dinner every night in the kitchen. Enough room to give everyone their own space and a great hang-out place as well.

St. Augustine

I have stayed at many VRBO units over the years. I do a lot of research before I make my final selection. I have rarely been disappointed and usually my choices are all close to a perfect match. I can usually judge if the unit is good as soon as I walk in the door. For me, when I walk in the door the only thing I should have to do is load the food in the refrigerator. This unit was as close to perfect as you can get. There was a heated pool in the back yard which was right on the canal. You could walk to the beach. St. Augustine is a very historic, picturesque city with lots of shops and GOOD restaurants. There was plenty to do for 3 young grandchildren and 4 adults. Best of all we were close enough to Cape Canaveral to see a rocket launch. We will definitely go back.

This isn't 5 star lodging. The place isn't perfect. It makes up for that in the pricing, charm, location and amenities. We had a blast. Swimming, fishing, relaxing and exploring. Highly recommend this place

Awesome Spring Break 2024!

This place had everything we needed for an amazing week in Florida. We shared it with my sister’s family. (4 adults, 5 kids ages 7-17, and 2 dogs). The canal was gorgeous and we loved the pool and whole ambiance of the outdoor space. Thai was our second stay in one of David and Pattie’s places and we plan to rent again from the same hosts next year!

Great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house/living area is updated, kitchen is very well equipped, king bed is very comfortable, pool is wonderful. I missed the fact that the house is upstairs living and with recent illness the stairs were a challenge but that was a small thing and we had a lovely stay here that went by too quickly!

Wonderful place to relax and have fun.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The property manager was very prompt in responding to our questions about light switches and the issue was taken care of the next day. The house is very spacious and had everything we needed. Very close to historic Saint Augustine and plenty of stores and restaurants nearby. We even had the opportunity to meet the owners! Super nice people. If we are ever looking to stay in St. Augustine again, we will definitely see if this property is available.

We had a great time during our stay. There were plenty of rooms to fit our large family, including a couple of nieces and nephews. The distance to the beach was short and the access to the canal for fishing was perfect for my guys. The pool was great for relaxing later in the day.
