About this property

Steps to Beach ~ HEATED POOL ~ 2 King Beds!

You're going to enjoy your stay at Coco's Beach Cottage! This charming beach home features a private swimming pool and much more. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath house is just steps away from the beautiful Vilano Beach, with the Intracoastal Waterway only a short walk away.

The house spans two levels and accommodates up to eight guests. It includes two king beds, one queen bed, and a sleeper sofa. The primary bathroom has a walk-in shower and a relaxing bathtub, while the guest bathroom features a tub-shower combination. Every bedroom is equipped with a TV for your entertainment! The fully equipped kitchen includes a dining area and a breakfast bar, and complimentary wireless internet is available during your stay.

Coco's Beach Cottage is pet-friendly and designed to make you feel at home during your vacation. Amenities include bed and bath linens, hardwood floors, lovely decor, a large flat-panel HDTV, Wi-Fi, a washer and dryer, a dishwasher, and more.

Just 200 steps from the beach via an easy-access path on one side, and only a five-minute walk to the Intracoastal Waterway on the other, this area of Vilano/North Beach is known for surfing, paddleboarding, fishing, shark tooth hunting, and more. You can walk, bike, or drive to many great restaurants just minutes away. Our comfortable home is a 10-minute drive from the lively and historic town of St. Augustine! The Vilano Beach pier is just a three-minute drive (or a 40-minute walk along the beach), where you’ll find a Publix grocery store and a mini outdoor mall. Nearby, you’ll also discover a local post office, a bait and gear store, a boat rental facility, a gas dock, a local pub, and several restaurants along the Intracoastal. You can reach the PGA Tour’s TPC Sawgrass in just 20 minutes, and it’s a two-hour drive to Walt Disney World.

Vilano Beach, located on Veterans Island in St. Augustine, is closer to the historic district than any other beach in the city—only 10 minutes from historical sites and the antique district. Spend your mornings relaxing on the beach and your afternoons exploring St. George Street in downtown St. Augustine.

For an additional $200/week or less, the pool may be heated to a maximum of 84 degrees. The pool heater must be added to your reservation 48 hours before arrival. Please note that we do not offer this service from Memorial Day through September.

Great place -We will be back!
The decription of the home was accurately defined. It was close to the beach- walking distance! The kiddos loved the pool- you can ask for it to be heated for a fee(we did this- and were happy we did). Great location to get to St. Augustine. Marty communicated quickly when needed. Highly recommend, we will be back!

We loved it!
We had an amazing stay at this property. The location was perfect as we were able to walk to Caps, Aunt Kate’s, and the Reef. Most importantly, this property was perfect for my dog. He was so comfortable here with the fenced in backyard, carpeted floors, and spacious living area. Would definitely book again.

Spring Break
Spent the week in St. Augustine for Spring Break with our family. House was convenient and a quick walk to the beach. I did not realize the Master was upstairs so be ready to climb up with all of your luggage! The beds were very comfortable. The living room furniture is not the greatest and it is packed into a tiny living room where you cannot fully open the doors to the back porch. Would be better if they consolidated the furniture and set it up differently to allow a better flow of traffic. The kitchen was fine. Don’t plan to cook a big meal as pots and pans were very old. Knives were so dull we could not sure bread and the baking sheets were very old and gross. All in all it met our needs but not the mostLuxurious!

Perfect location
The location is ideal; super short walk to the beach. The surrounding neighborhood is great for walking/biking. Publix is very close, maybe a mile away. The Reef restaurant is also nearby and the food is excellent! Vilano Beach is the perfect distance from Saint Augustine. I highly recommend this stay!

Great stay.
Our family had a great stay over spring break. Location is great with short walk to beach. Pool was a hit with our grandkids. A few small improvements would make it even better - more silverwear, some new nonstick pans and a smart TV in the living room.

Awesome house!
We had a great experience at Cocos beach house! We love every day we stayed there! There was some issues with the TV cable and wifi but got fixed quick! Thanks to the manager that kept in contact to see that everything was going our way! Our only regret was not staying more days.. we will definitely come back and spend more time at this beach home!

Adorable Beach Cottage!!!
We had a wonderful time at Coco's Beach Cottage! This spacious well kept home was perfect for our family. The two minute walk and easy access to the beach made for a great beach vacation. The family loved the private pool. We found a bunch of nearby restaurants. Kate's, the Reef and Beaches were our favorites! A nice supermarket was minutes down the road and Historic St Augustine was just across the bridge. We will be back!!!

Perfect stay
We stayed in the house over Christmas and it was really perfect. It was everything that the advertisement described. We will definitely try and go back again! The house was clean and there was more than enough room for 4 adults and two teens. Loved the location. The only negative (which I had read in previous reviews) is that the road you have to cross to get to the beach is very busy, I was surprised by the speed limit being 55 miles. But other than that it was a fabulous stay!

CoCo Beach Rental
I stayed here with a group of friends looking for a relaxing week on the beach and that was exactly what we got! A nice, quiet beach was a short, easy walk away. The house itself was nicely furnished and clean. It more than comfortably slept eight people. It is extremely close to Publix which was convenient seeing as the house had a nice full kitchen and we were able to do some cooking. It was also close to St. Augustine which had lots to do for those not looking to go to the beach every day. All in all it is a house I would highly recommend!.

Family Vacation 2023
The only thing we didn’t realize before booking was that all three bedrooms are upstairs. It wasn’t a big deal, we were just thinking one bedroom was downstairs. Our grandchildren enjoyed the pool the most! This was the first time that me, my kids, and grandkids all stayed in the same house together, and it was so much fun! It was also the first time staying on Vilano Beach instead of St. Augustine Beach and we enjoyed it so much we’re thinking about going back next year! Thank you for allowing us to rent CoCo’s Beach Cottage for the week!

VRBO
I really didn’t see anything extra for the ‘VRBO experience’ There was no welcome basket or notebook with information about the tv remotes and/or restaurants and activities. The 50 steps to beach was a little bit deceptive. We were disappointed the pool was full of leaves.

Pros and cons
Check in process was easy, the layout of the home is good for the privacy upstairs and kitchen downstairs. We visited over Spring Break and the space needed major cleaning. Grass needed mowed, pool was Sandy and had stuff in it, tons of trash out front, and pillows were unusable. The pool is tiny w no hangout space out back. The place including the windows needs a good pressure wash. We were happy to snag a place last minute at the beach but definitely overpaid for this. Someone needs to take a week off renting it and get it back in rental shape for that kind of money.

Vacation
This is great location to beach and historic St. Augustine and for dogs! The house wasn’t ready at 3 when we got there. Cleaning ssid she had couple things more to do then one of our beds are sandy inside sheets and another bedroom had a sports bra left behind. The outside pool is very small and patio area isn’t much to be desired. We’ve stayed in Florida every yr for the past 20 yrs and never had a patio that no one really wanted to hang at because there really isn’t much there. For the price I wouldn’t go back to this particular house.

Great place to stay
This was the perfect location to stay as we played golf and went to The Players tournament. Very clean, beautiful, great cul-de-sac neighborhood, steps to the beach and plenty of restaurants to choose nearby. We actually ate at Caps on the Water 3 nights in a row because it was THAT good and you could walk there in 20 minutes or take the 3 minute drive. Close to downtown St. Augustine and the TPC Sawgrass. The T.V. didn't work in the upstairs room that faced the cul-de-sac, but it didn't really matter. Could use red ant treatment around the property as there were areas you needed to watch out for. We loved it and would stay again. Keep in mind that all the bedrooms are upstairs. Oh... we thought the beds were super comfortable!! The couch downstairs is a hide-a-bed but if you can't do stairs, this might not be the place for you. We really enjoyed our stay!
