Enjoy the outdoors on our wonderful patio deck or around the wood burning fire pit. A Florida room complete with mini fridge and wet bar as well as yoga mats, light weights and lots of games is set up beautifully for you to relax indoors. With all of this to enjoy, you will have no choice but to allow yourself to fully escape into vacation mode. The bright and open floor plan creates a cozy atmosphere. Enjoy the smart TV in the living room on nights in. The spacious kitchen is truly stocked to allow you to cook with ease. Relax inside or outside, grill out on the propane grill, take a stroll around the lovely neighborhood or a drive to the beach for a day of active group fun. Enjoy your coffee in the shade or a drink in the sun!

THE PROXIMITY: Most of my favorite local hot spots are in this part of town are within a 15-20 minute walk, a quick bike ride or short drive of the front door! To name a few: The St. Augustine Lighthouse, The Alligator Farm, Mojo's Tacos, Creative Juices, Gypsy Cab Co, Fresh Market, The Village Garden Food Truck Park, Surf Station and Linen and Waves (shopping), antiques and furniture stores, and you're just a stones throw from the very heart of downtown St. Augustine. To the south of St. Aug is a highly popular area of Palm Coast, with nearby Marineland, a great place to indulge in outdoor fun as well as golf at The Hammock and the drop dead gorgeous preserve of Washington Oaks State Park, a must-visit! This home is also drive-able within 45 minutes best parts of prime Ponte Vedra for golf and shopping! US1 and A1A are our main commercial corridors, equipped with shopping, groceries and restaurants of all kinds. This home is less than 8 minutes from Publix grocery store.

THE SPACE: This wonderful home sleeps 6 in 2 King beds and 1 Queen bed. There is a pack n play and high chair for an infant/toddler to come along as well, however the space is not child-proofed.

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.

So Clean!

We stayed here for two nights during the Saint Augustine Nights of Lights event. The house was spotless and included every amenity we needed. We taught our six-year-old and eight-year-old how to play Monopoly and now they are loving that game! One of them even wrote to Santa asking for a monopoly game for Christmas. We will definitely use euphoria rental properties in the future.

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!
