We had a great time and the house was well stocked. It is missing a dustpan though :). We loved being right on the beach and the house was spacious for our large group.

It was a beautiful home and was perfect for the whole family to stay! The views from the house were immaculate and it was so great to have private beach access. I would choose to stay here again every time I have a big group in St Augustine!

The house itself was beautiful with a fantastic view of the beach. It was spacious and comfortable. There were great bedrooms. The service by the host was a huge problem. And the general lack of upkeep on the fences, yard, and surroundings took away from the overall experience. The biggest problem was details. First, the host gave us the wrong wi fi address. There were minimal supplies, like one roll of toilet paper per bedroom. Half of the shelves in the refrigerator were broken. The lightbulbs in hood over the stove were burned out. We had to use our cell phones to read the dials to the stove. One bedroom had no remotes for the TV. The light was out in the master bedroom closet. Only the master bedroom actually had an en suite bathroom. The only response we got from the host was a corrected WiFi and “referred to maintenance.”

Major disappointment. Our first view of the property included five completely overflowing garbage cans, all of which the prior occupants failed to take to the street. I telephoned the property manager’s office our second morning on the property (Saturday) to inform him/her of this problem and to ask that it be remedied. I was assured that he/she would receive the message and take care of the matter, so I have to assume he/she did receive my message; however, I was never contacted in response to my request, and nothing was done to remedy the overflowing garbage can problem. Before you rent this place, be aware of the filthy floors, the silverfish crawling on the ceiling, spiders in the showers, ants all over the floors and roaches crawling on the wall. You can also expect no privacy if you stay in the master bedroom, as 5 slats from the ancient sliding curtains are missing. The thermostats must be kept at 72 degrees per property manager edict, however, they have clearly been recalibrated because the actual temperature in the house is between 75 & 77 degrees. Occupants are threatened in literature awaiting them in the property with a fine for lowering the temperature, among many other possible transgressions, all of which are punished with fines charged to your credit card. Be prepared to follow many property manager instructions or be fined, sometimes excessively. Be careful if you decide to use portions of the deck. Some planks are completely rotted through. If you decide to rent this place, be aware that you are on your own for any issue which may arise. You can expect no communication, much less assistance, from the property manager. Pay your money up front, avoid the many insects inside the house, complete all of the chores that you, the paying guest, are assigned, and you may get through your stay without being fined. Welcome!
