Andrew’s place was amazing! The location is perfect for a quiet beach vacation. We enjoyed walking/biking to the beach (using Andrew’s bikes). We throughly enjoyed the surf boards and boogie board. We recommend biking to Aunt Kate’s for dinner. I can’t recommend this AirBnb enough!

In town for a five night stay. Easy walk to the beach and the house came stocked with beach gear. Plenty of space for 6 and every amenity was provided. Kitchen well stocked - easy to make family dinners. Clearly the owners thought of everything you need - laundry and dishwasher detergent, shampoo and body wash in the showers, and plenty of TP and hand soap for the bathrooms. If you didn’t bring beach gear - no worries! There were beach chairs, wagons to lug your stuff, three beach bikes, boogie boards and even a surf board! We enjoyed ping pong on the patio and the screened in porch was absolutely lovely. And it was so hot outside during our stay and the AC and ceiling fans were heavenly. And the smart tv enabled us to use our streaming service so we didn’t miss any of the Olympic events we wanted to watch. I would stay here again without hesitation. Finally Andrew and Melody were super responsive and helpful when we had questions.
We had a great trip, would definitely stay here again!

We had the absolute best time at Andrew and Melody's place. Andrew was so nice and very responsive with any questions/concerns I had from the beginning. The attention to detail was such a nice touch to an already wonderful place to stay. We are already talking about booking again for next year! Thank you so much from the Stewart's!

This is an amazing place to stay in the Vilano Beach area. The house is unique and comfortable. Perfect t for a family to enjoy the beach and the St Augustine area.

Great location with large space to accommodate a larger family! Good layout with great supply of kitchenware and amenities for cooking! Great balcony porch and overall comfortable and relaxing. I would recommend if you need a whole house in the Vilano beach area.

Nice place. Enjoyed St. Augustine.
Weather was very cool which limited use of outdoor area. Think it should be mentioned that the 3rd bathroom is in unattached building. Location should say 'Vilano Beach' area.

Very clean and perfect location. The beds were comfy and the kitchen had everything you would need to cook.
Worth considering for a stay at Vilano Beach
John H.
A modern design on a quiet residential street less than 400yds from the beach - and a similar very walkable distance to two local restaurants. We particularly liked the large screened balcony. Like most of the accommodation. this is on 2F - so you look out onto the trees and bushes that screen the property from its neighbours. The large open living space - lounge / dining table / kitchen - inside is great too.
Not a problem for us, but just be aware if you are a larger group that - as mentioned in some other reviews - the 3rd bathroom is across the yard from the main building. Probably best used for showers after the beach.
If you already know the area, you'll know that the main attraction is the beach which - very literally - goes on for miles. We loved it, but if you're looking for action and nightlife, you'll probably find yourself driving to St Augustine or St Augustine Beach. Not a big problem - just something to be aware of.

Funky little house tucked away off the street. Close to everything. This house has everything you need to relax. Communication with owner was outstanding!
Fit our needs
Jenny H.
This house was exactly what we needed for the group we had. It was a good configuration of bedrooms and enough bathrooms. The downstairs ping pong table kept the 3 kids/teens busy and the bikes were also a bonus for kids and adults. Easy walk to beautiful and uncrowded beach.
very nice place
Teresa P.
this was an overall nice experience. I left a small mirror that sticks to the main mirror in the bathroom and have advised the host, but have not heard back.
Great place
Jane C.
We enjoyed this place for a family gathering. Very clean and nice place. We enjoyed the beach walking and other activities. Easy to check in. Wonderful management! Highly recommend for other guests!
Great location
Robin H.
Perfect place near the beach. Quiet neighborhood and loved the porch to chill out in the mornings. Lots of vegetation around the house so you were not on top of the neighbors. Not far from St Augustine and hiking trails.

Nice stay Clean House
Marshall W.
House was super clean and fantastic. The only thing was that the vrbo map made it seem as though the rental was on Saint Augustine not valano beach.
Great place to stay
orlando s.
It was a amazing place,Only if they added a place to walk and not get muddy in the entrance it would be great and maybe locks but everything else was amazing!!!
Verano Beach Florida
Kristin D.
Overall we had a great time at the house. Wish I would have known it was Valano beach though. I have to admit it was partially my fault because I did not spell out the number twelve when I looked up directions. I assumed since it said St. Augustine that was the beach it was on where there would have been more things within walking distance. The location is nice and secluded for a traveler that might want that though. The only other thing I disliked was that the beach access that was in walking distance is very steep with a telephone pole laying halfway across it. There are no stairs and no trash can or bathrooms there either, so you have to haul your trash back. It really is a lovely house though with everything you need except groceries!😊 Also the neighbor across the street is super nice and can give you some great tips on places where the locals eat!
Quick getaway
Robin B.
Easy to check in and out. Well stocked and comfortable furniture. Plenty of seating for everyone.
Amazing!
Andy D.
This property was absolutely perfect! They house was very clean, the layout was amazing, and the host made sure everything went without incident. I will come stay here again. Very close to the beach. The most striking thing about it was the privacy, though there are neighbors, the foliage and layout of the landscaping gives it the appearance that you are all alone. I really can't say enough about how great this place is. Stayed 5 nights, went to the beach everyday. We had 8 people in our party, 4 adults and 4 children. Beds were nice and cozy, played lots of ping pong, and just had a wonderful time.

2023 Family Trip
WendyNJohnny J.
We had a wonderful 3 1/2 day family getaway! The house was very neat and clean, roomy living area and kitchen/dining area for the 5 of us, 3 generations. Loved the porch upstairs and felt safe with the grandson out there because of the extra sturdy wire on the bottom half of the porch. The area is nice and quiet and close to the beach, shopping and dining. And our hosts were always ready if we needed them. What a perfect Getaway!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!!!

Secluded Florida Relaxation
Erik R., Tampa
I had a wonderful time with my wife and kids and parents at this home. It was a cool feeling approaching the property and feeling like I was in a secluded Florida bungalow with forest providing privacy. The proximity to the beach was great and they have bikes to ride back and forth if needed. The other amneties they offered were much appreciated. (My daughter loved the boogie board and my parents appreciated the beach chairs). Close by was a gem of a restaurant in Aunt Kates. Great food and atomosphere. Andrew and Melody were fantastic hosts who communicated very well and made the check in and check out process a breeze. If you want to feel secluded in a modern take of a Florida bungalow give this home a whirl!
Wonderful experience.
John P.
Lovely house, grounds. Great outdoor ammenities. Suggestions: Should disclose that 3rd bath is outdoors. Kitchen lighting is very inadequate. Recommend binder with pertinent info. We were unable to connect to internet and unable to contact for help. Overall, great! Would definitely book again.

Notes
★ COVID-19 SANITIZATION ★
Heath, safety, and wellbeing of our guests are of utmost importance to us. For this reason, we use a thorough and extensive process of cleaning after each check-out.
We charge a pet fee of $100 per reservation for 2 pets maximum. If you do happen to bring another pet, it will be $100 for every pet over 2 pets. Must get approval from host.
*If you neglect to inform us ahead of time that you are bringing a pet with you than we reserve the right to either TERMINATE your stay early or charge an additional $100 on top of the original pet fee.
The following additional charges apply to late check outs/early arrivals, assuming we can offer this at all (we often can’t so please never assume this will be allowed):
1 hr or less early arrival or late departure: $50
1-2 hr early arrival/late departure: $100
2-3 hr early arrival/late departure: $200
These fees are primarily in place to highly discourage late checkouts/early arrivals since this causes our cleaning service undue stress to prep the unit prior to your or the next set of guest’s arrival. This also increases the need for them to rush/cut corners, increasing the likelihood of them not cleaning the unit to the high standard which we hold them to.
REFUND DISCLAIMER:
Please note that if a refund is issued for your booking, the processing fee of 3.9% will not be refunded. The refunded amount will be the total paid minus the 3.9% processing fee per Stripe’s return policy. This applies to direct bookings and bookings made through select booking channels. Thank you for your understanding.

Neighborhood

Mosaic artwork portraying regional wildlife can be found along the Vilano Beach Nature Boardwalk, which winds through wetlands close to the Francis and Mary Usina Bridge.
