Covenient to Historical Center of St Augustine

There were 5 women and we had plenty of room to sleep, eat, and relax. Very clean and new. The Puffin had everything you would need for basic cooking to include a crockpot. The Coffee maker was a Nespresso so you need to purchase those specific pods or bring your own coffee maker which we did. We asked for the hot water heater to be turned up and it was. Owner was responsive. We did have to purchase toilet tissue as only a few rolls are supplied. Representation in the pictures and language was spot on. We would stay here again.coffee machine is a Nespresso machine

Loved this house

We stayed as a family of 5 and had plenty of room and were very comfortable. The house was clean and very up to date. The location is wonderful-just a few minutes to historic district or the beach. We loved Vilano beach the most. The neighborhood the house is in was quiet and peaceful.

AMAZING

My husband and I visit St. Augustine four or five times a year as our grandson lives in Jacksonville and we live in South Florida. We rent a place every time we visit. This was by far the best we have ever stayed in. It is exactly as described in the listing, new, clean, comfortable, everything you would need for a weekend, week or month. The location is only minutes away from the historical downtown, the beach area, restaurants and stores. We will stay there every time we go back if it's available. The hosts were communicative and informative. We arrived a little early and they let us in before the 4pm check in time. We absolutely loved the home. I could go on and on but I think this says enough. If I could give it 10 stars I would.

Great stay, cool home and great staff.

Came here to dodge a Hurricane. Host was FANTASTIC. We got there early and then had to extend our stay. Great house, really nice. Stayed cool, everything we needed was inside. Very close to downtown St Augustine, but not quite a walking area.

Great modern and clean house

Our family of five plus our dog loved staying here! It was clean, the beds were comfortable, and it had everything we needed in a home away from home. The kitchen had nice appliances and was well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. We cooked most of our meals at the home during our one week stay and had everything we needed. The house is tastefully decorated with a modern esthetic and comfortable furniture. There was room for at least 2 cars in the gravel driveway. It has similar homes on each side and has a private unfinished backyard with an 8 ft fence. The neighborhood is transitional and a bit out of historic St. Augustine, so we drove everywhere, but everything is very close- all the sights, shopping, restaurants, etc. We would definitely stay at this property again. Also, the property managers were great with communication.
