Really enjoyed the home and location. The key process was very difficult and the dead bolt would not release and had to call to open a lock box. Key was very hard to use and should be replaced. In take vent in hallway was filthy. Black mold inside of shower stall at hallway bathroom. Rest of the home was spotless.

Beautiful property with perfect views. Will definitely use this unit again.

Hurricane Idalia was coming at category 3 & not wanting to be stuck in 6 feet plus waves we asked for a refund. We never entered unit or checked in & believe me they don't care if there's a hurricane or an evacuation order by governor or care for your safety. They just want your money! Absolutely do not recommend Valesca is a huge VRBO company & look online Google them, nothing but bad reviews. Don't make same mistake we did!

The views of both the Atlantic and Intracoastal waterway were wonderful. The beds were comfortable. It was such a great stay...I look forward to coming back!

The apartment is bigger in person than in photos, which was a pleasant surprise. It is on one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever been to, and it was so quiet it felt like we had the entire building to ourselves. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The sunrise from the balcony was absolutely stunning. It’s the perfect getaway. The only thing I recommend is to make sure to stop and get ice for the room on your way there, as there was no ice or cold water in the room. That wasn’t so good after a reallly hot day walking the historic side of town. Other than that, I highly recommend staying here!

We stayed with family, including two grandchildren, and this unit was perfect! It was spotlessly clean when we arrived. There is more than enough storage and it is so spacious. The laundry room is a great size and is perfect for stowing away coolers, etc. after a day at the beach. There are breathtaking views from every place in the unit; living, kitchen, dining, master bedroom, and then a great view of the intercoastal from one of the guest bedrooms. It even has a private sitting area for views of the sunset. And being an end unit just makes the views all the more better. Parking was ample and simple. The pool is literally steps away and then the beach is right there. The pool was spotless, sparkling and not crowded. We went in the busy season, July, and the beach was never crowded. We'd recommend Commander's about a mile away for some amazing, fresh seafood in a casual atmosphere. If there are babies, there are two swivel rocking chairs in the living room. We had some rain while there, but it did not matter because you still feel like you are on the beach even when inside the unit. I can't say enough good things about it. We hope to return next year! Vacasa was very communicative the entire trip as well. There was an issue with the elevator one day, and they were very responsive in relaying the information to the HOA.

The condo had a great view of the beach! Loved that the unit was at the end where we had an area to store our beach stuff. It's a 3 bedroom and there were 6 of us and felt roomy enough for all of us. Overall the condo was clean. The window areas were pretty dirty where we had to lift up the hurricane protectors to see out the windows, but not that big of a deal. Sent a couple of questions to Vacasa and although someone responded, I didn't get answers for either of my questions. We figured out how to lift the hurricane protectors, but never got a working code to get into the bathroom on the Lower level close to the pool. Despite that, it's a nice condo and would stay there again.

Our stay at Sand Dollar II was perfect! The location was nice and quiet, not crowded at all. The beach was beautiful and the views from the balcony were 2nd to none! The unit was quite large with plenty of space. We are seriously considering returning the same time next year!!! AAA+++

Clean, well equipped very comfortable, close to restaurants

Everything was great. We will be coming back. The only thing was the tv in the bedroom behind the kitchen didn't work. And I could find info on how to work it. But I didn't look real hard. Most places have book of information right on the den table.

This unit at Sand Dollar was great. The location on the beach is awesome and the views can't be beat. We loved the corner unit since it gave us views on 2 sides. The kitchen was well stocked. There were plenty of bath towels for everyone. The whole process of checking in and out was easy. Vacasa was easy to deal with when we called them. When we got there, there was only 1 beach chair and 1 beach towel. The property manager, Natasha was great. She dropped off the new chairs and towels the next day. Also, the tv in one of the bedrooms wasn't working and she called the Tech guy, Ryan, to come and fix it. He was also friendly and courteous and came promptly. We would definitely rent this unit again. Crescent Beach is quiet. We had to get in the car to go anywhere. It was easy to get around though. Lots of places to eat either direction. As for the online listing, I found out that they only provide 2 chairs and 2 beach towels for a home that sleeps 8. Though I didn't expect 8 of everything, I thought there would be 4. I wish they had put that number of chairs/towels they provide in the listing. I could have then planned accordingly.

We loved the house decor and the beach vibes. We have a lovely time there and the view was amazing. We visit there again for sure.

Very enjoyable. Great views.

Great views, large comfortable accommodations and full amenities.

This end unit overlooks the ocean and pools. Comfortable and nicely furnished. A little lacking in kitchen items like silverware and coffee mugs

View of the ocean from the balcony is wonderful. Because the unit is on the fourth floor and is an end unit, the views of both the sunrise and sunset are beautiful. Location is about 10 miles south of downtown St. Augustine. This makes for a quiet beach but a slight trek for dinner. The unit itself is spacious and well appointed. Although still acceptable, it is getting somewhat dated and a refreshening of the kitchen and bathrooms would be beneficial. Overall, a nice place to visit the beach and stay oceanfront.

From the moment we walked into the condo, we were awed by the beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean. The front bedroom has a small patio and a great view of the Intracoastal Waterway. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen appliances were in good condition. We hope to return when the weather is more favorable for outdoor adventures.

Phenomenal! The condo was clean, comfortable, spacious, and the view was absolutely phenomenal.

The condo is well built and insulated..."Quiet" and spacious. It's better "live" than in the photo's. Our master bed was comfortable. I love that there was a full sized washer and dryer. The beach was NOT crowded! I loved the large rooms best. It's located on the corner of the building above the pool. We flew kites on the beach with our grandson and enjoyed our stay!!! Enjoyed the Alligator Farm, Pizza Alley (daily specials were great) in St Augustine. We were able to share a row of seats for the Nights of Lights Trolley ride with another party so it wasn't so expensive. NOTE: There are coupon magazines available at the entrances of most of the stores that will save you on food and attractions!!! Thank you Sand Dollar II 408 for a memorable week before Christmas Holiday Vacation!

Loved being on the beach! Easy access to everything yet far enough away to relax. Had everything we needed and more! Thank you! We will be back!!!

This condo had everything we needed and more. The rooms were spacious and the furnishings were cozy and comfortable. The location was right on the beach and out of the bustle of the city which was perfect. Would love to stay here again!

Very nice layout and spacious. Right on the water and beautiful views.

My family and I loved this condo! It is so homey and welcoming. Beautiful beach right outside, chill environment, well stocked home. I wouldn’t hesitate to come back- I wish we could have stayed longer :)

Beautiful views of the sunset and sunrise.

Pros: Property was clean and well appointed. Building and grounds were well maintained View of beach was awesome! Cons: There needs to be more than four total washcloths. The building pool has no dedicated restrooms. You have to go back to your unit to relieve yourself. The nearest restaurant is 7 miles away. And the big one; During breakfast, the combo lock on the entrance door was activated and a guy just walked in un-announced. He said he was from a real estate company to take photos of the unit. About 10 min after he left, a lady who said she represented Vacasa did the same thing. How could they not know that the unit was booked, since I did it through them? Anyway, my wife was very traumatized by these invasions of our privacy and did not feel safe staying there.

The location was amazing! The condo was roomy, efficient, and very beachy… We will definitely be staying there again!

Beautiful home. Fantastic views of ocean. Very nice pool.

This was a beautiful property. We were very comfortable and had a wonderful experience. Pictures did not do justice to the condo.

We had a great experience, beautiful beach.

We loved this location and condo but we had several problems during our stay. First thing, the wifi was down and we couldn't get connected or use the TV in the living room. We called Vacasa and they said someone would call me within 15 minutes to an hour. I never heard from anyone again. Then, we discovered the drain in the second bathroom sink does not drain properly. We brought food items with us only to discover the food was full of ants the next morning. So, we had to throw out our donuts, bread, and bagels. There was a second garbage that was still full of cans when we arrived. The carpets looked to be unvacuumed, there were fingerprints on the windows, mirrors, and appliances, the inside of the microwave and the little conventional oven looks like it hasn't been cleaned in some time, there was an empty beer bottle behind the couch and another crushed beer can behind one of the dressers in the master, and the beds looked like they were already slept in. Finally, we made a mistake and our daughter left a pair of small diamond stud earrings behind that were given to me by my husband on our 1st anniversary that I had allowed her to wear. We discovered the error within an hour and a half of leaving. We called Vacasa who wants to charge us $25 just to have someone go look for them, then another fee to ship them if they found them? Weren't the cleaning people going to be there anyhow? And shouldn't they turn in things that were left behind? So, since we were still in the area my husband ran back to see if they were there and the cleaning people had already been there and the earrings were gone. I am so sad and disappointed that we lost them to begin with but then to have someone not turn them in is even worse. I am so disgruntled with Vacasa and how they manage things. I am not sure I will stay at another Vacasa run property.

The pictures and descriptions of this property does not do it justice! We were pleasantly surprised with the space in this unit, the perfect size for 6-8 people. Everything was clean and in place upon arrival, the Wi-Fi router power is connected to a wall light switch (#2 out of the 4 on the hutch wall) so make sure it is on before panicking. Plenty of towels for bathing and beach, extra bedding supplies and everything you need in your kitchen. It is nicely decorated and has a lot of closet spaces for all 50 outfits that were packed for your week vacation. Very happy with the full-sized washer and dryer, so much better than the stacked ones that condos usually have. The shared pool closes at "dusk" and no floatation items are allowed unfortunately. Honestly cannot rave enough about the views, absolutely spectacular from the master bedroom and both balconies. It is in a great location for families, not in a busy area so you will have to drive 2-3 miles to visit any restaurants or stores. Hoping to stay there many more times in the future!

Great condo with lots of room. Great location and the views were amazing. Highly recommend
