Pet-friendly beach home with private heated pool, hot tub, & 5 porches! Sleeps 12

Welcome to Coastal Retreat, a captivating vacation rental home nestled at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac in Crescent Beach, St. Augustine, FL. This charming abode offers a seamless blend of coastal luxury and serenity, providing an idyllic escape for those seeking the perfect beachside retreat.

The house stands proudly between the majestic Atlantic Ocean and the serene Intercoastal Waterway, ensuring breathtaking views from every corner. With five outdoor porches strategically positioned, you can revel in the spectacle of the sun rising over the ocean or witness the enchanting full moon ascending in the evening sky. The expansive sundeck beckons sunbathers and grilling enthusiasts alike, promising a delightful space to soak up the sun or savor the flavors of a freshly grilled catch.

While officially listed as a three-bedroom property, Coastal Retreat boasts a myriad of unique sleeping options, accommodating a variety of preferences. The ground floor hosts two inviting bedrooms, a meticulously renovated bathroom, and a cozy living room. Ascend to the second level to discover an additional living area, a charming dining room, and a well-appointed kitchen. The accompanying deck on this floor provides an ideal setting for dining with a great ocean view.

The pièce de résistance awaits on the third floor, where the primary bedroom suite exudes luxury. This sanctuary features a private balcony, offering a personal retreat to soak in the coastal ambiance. Adjacent to the bedroom is a quaint library, complete with a convenient Murphy bed for added versatility.

While Coastal Retreat stands as a gem in its own right, the real magic happens just down the lane on Crescent Beach. Guests can revel in the sun-kissed sands, enjoy leisurely strolls, or partake in the vibrant beachside activities. For fishing enthusiasts, a short walk around the corner leads to the renowned Matanzas Inlet, where the fishing is nothing short of spectacular. September brings the coveted redfish season, attracting a flurry of anglers eager to reel in their catch. The limited public parking ensures a secluded and serene experience, making Coastal Retreat the perfect haven for those seeking both relaxation and adventure on Florida's enchanting coast.

Great stay

This was such an amazing stay! We were able to walk to the beach and enjoy it. Everything we needed for the beach was there. Beautiful views and so much space. The instructions to enter could have been a little bit more clearer but other than that , no problems.

Awesome place

We loved the house. From the location to the pool and hot tub on the back porch. My boys could walk down to the shore to fish and we werent too far from downtown St. Augustine. There was plenty of room for us to all have our own space when we needed a little nap. It was an awesome vacation.

Nope never again

Tub out of order! Only tub in house! Ants inside and out !pool wasn’t cleaned before arrival they sent someone 2 days later Coffee maker didn’t work but they brought a new one 2 days later and some ant spray! I have rented other properties in Florida and the cleaning fee should cover the whole property not just the inside but she said they don’t clean pool before we checked in for a week! Ok also lots of construction at beach access had to go down a steep hill to get to ocean! This was not in description of property! I understand it’s not in there control but it would have been a good heads up about the construction! This will definitely not be on list of places to stay!

This place should be taken off VRBO

This place was very disappointing. The house was rundown the yard was unkept, it needed repairs everywhere! Had we not had our adult children and their children with us we would have booked somewhere else.Absolutely Unbelievable.

Great location for a family vacation

The location of the home was perfect for our family, offering a walkable, low traffic beach with amazing sunrise/sunset views and a 15 minute drive to the more populated St. Augustine beach. The home easily a accommodated our family plus a view guests for sleeping arrangements. Neighbors are super friendly.
