Here’s a polished 5-star review you could post for Jess:Jess was the perfect hostess and made my retirement celebration following a 28-year naval career absolutely unforgettable. From start to finish, she ensured every detail was handled with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. Her responsiveness, thoughtfulness, and ability to anticipate what we needed made our stay in her beautiful homes both comfortable and really fun. She created an atmosphere that was not only special for me but truly enjoyable for my entire family. Thanks to Jess, a milestone event became a treasured memory. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

location, outdoor space, cleanliness, and communication with property management all top-notch.

Our 25-member family, ranging in age from 9 to 84 and living in 7 different states, convenes for a week every two years to enjoy each other and to catch up with the ones we haven't seen since our last reunion. This year we chanced upon these two properties. Let me say now that we always look forward to seeing each other, but this time we hit the jackpot. While the houses had all the character of St. Augustine, the insides looked new. They were charming, comfortable, and spotlessly clean, nestled amid rich foliage right next to each other on a quiet residential street very near to the beach and to the river. The bathrooms were better appointed than those in most luxury hotels, with dispensers of quality shampoo, quality soap, and even quality bathroom tissue. The kitchens had everything, including coffee pots (regular and Keurig), sugars, salt and pepper, all kinds of glasses and dishware, skillets and pans, sponges and detergent. Each house, including the pool cottage, had its own fridge, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and well-stocked laundry room. Besides a pool on the one property, we had a hot tub, a putting green, a 6-seater golf cart in each garage, bicycles, a garage game room, and more. Automatic door locks were activated with a code so there was no problem with juggling keys. Too many good things to mention here, but the absolute best thing was how incredibly helpful and responsive the owner was, from our first inquiry to the day we had to say goodbye.

Property was perfect for our big family Thanksgiving. It was very clean and had many small welcome details that made us comfortable immediately. We definitely hope to return!!
