We help make the most of your vacation by providing Free Admission to some of the area's top attractions each and every day! Create exciting memories, have more fun, and truly experience your destination! See below for more details!
If you are looking for a relaxing little bit of paradise where you can enjoy boating, surfing, and swimming, you have found the perfect vacation spot! ParadiSea is newly furnished as the perfect hub from which to rest and enjoy spending family-time, while also taking in the sights and smells of the ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway, and nearby historic attractions in the Old City of St. Augustine. Spend lazy days around the private pool while watching the wildlife or boats on the river. Bring your own boat and dock it right at the home and enjoy daily outings fishing, swimming at the nearby Matanzas Inlet, or cruising down to the Old City. Spend the afternoon at the beach, just one mile to a neighborhood private access point, or a one mile ride to drive on access. Spend fun family-time at the house playing ping-pong, corn hole, having a cookout, and enjoying movie-time curled up on the large sectional in the family room.
ParadiSea has four bedrooms and two bathrooms in the main house, but also features cottage, separated from the main home by a courtyard, and outfitted with a queen bed and bathroom. The main house has a split plan, with the River View Master on one end of the home, two other bedrooms and a bathroom on the other end of the home, and a bunk room (Twin XL over Queen w/separate Twin over Twin bunk bed) separated from the other sleeping spaces, and convenient for four kids or 2-3 adults.
Nearby Endless Summer Surf Station surfing school offers surfing lessons, and board and electric bike rentals, great for riding along the beach and enjoying the sites! The area is also a fisherman's paradise and offers plenty of variety between surf fishing and river fishing. Frank Butler Park is adjacent to the neighborhood and has a boat ramp, floating dock, picnic tables and restrooms. Kayak, canoe, and fishing gear rentals, along with another river dock are available at nearby Genung's Fish Camp. Pizza, great seafood, Italian, and southern fare are all located within a mile of the condo. Grocery stores are located within a 10 minute drive.

Family vacation
Communication was excellent and property was exactly as pictured. Even with the cooler nights the pool was still warm to swim in during the day. The view was calming and amazing even saw some dolphins.
We enjoyed our stay here. We loved being able to bring our dog, the pool was great and the outside seating made it fun to have the whole family sit pool side for meals. The sunsets are amazing. The only downside is that the kitchen is very small.
House is very nice and exceptionally clean!
Swimming pool was warm and we all enjoyed the beautiful views.
We would definitely stay in this home again!
House was very nice right on inter coastal. Saw sea turtles, dolphins and even a manatee off the end of the pier.Close to stores and Flagler was just a drive away.Rainy so no beach time.
This place is awesome when you have a big family! We loved having a pool and the bay!! The public beach was so close and easy to access! Great management responsiveness too!
Cute. Unbelievably clean! Good beds. Nice pillows. All the furniture was in super good shape. Nicely outfitted kitchen. Loved sitting on the deck looking beyond the pool to the river traffic and wildlife. The location was very quiet. Fun stay.
This property has a lovely setting. The pool was heated and a perfect size. Bedroom layout with extra cottage provided ample space. Property manager was very responsive to some immediate needs we had upon check in.
We had 12 people and the house was perfect!… Beautiful sunsets! Very quiet neighborhood but still close to downtown…Very easy communication between management company
Absolute beautiful property! Already talking about going back with the rest of the family! Highly recommend! The house is beautiful and the view from the patio is amazing especially at sunset
We loved the location, very peaceful setting, extremely close to beach, restaurants and local attractions. The home was exceptionally clean and as we stayed for a few weeks we appreciated that the kitchen was stocked with plenty of cooking utensils that are often overlooked, and plenty of towels. I highly recommend the 3 mile drive down A1a for sunrise at the beautiful sparsely populated beach across from entrance for Fort Matanzas, and sunsets poolside. I would not hesitate to rent again.
Loved our stay! We were close to the beautiful and not overcrowded Butler Beach. Enjoyed the day in Historic St. Augustine. The pool and the house were a great! We loved the river it was on. We saw dolphins daily and the boys caught fish and crabs. *Things to know- they're were only 8 beach towels. Bring your own blankets, if you get that "after sun" chill. Needed to buy some kitchen utensils but no biggie!

Beautiful water views
The house had everything we needed for our week stay. We enjoyed the pool and the river for fishing. The management team was amazing to work with. Plenty of space for a large family. The house was very clean. The mattresses on the beds are the best we have ever had at a vacation rental.

Winter Escape
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and loved the views of the water and wildlife such as dolphins that swam by on almost a daily basis. The house had everything we needed and it was extremely nice to relax around the pool at the end of the day after exploring the area. The location is great in that it is close to town and the beach. The communication with the management was very nice for the information they provided about the house and area.
Pool ,patio,dock,bay and the sunset views all at once. Just glorious!
Sitting on the sofa looking at the pool the bay and the sunset all at once. It was so fantastic. A wonderful time visiting with our family. Lots of beds and room for everyone. Also a separate little cottage. We’ll be back!
We had a wonderful time at the house. The property and house was beautiful. Just like the pictures show. The pool was great. We saw a manatee sunbathing between our dock and the neighbors.The owner was very responsive when we called about the pool heater and had it fixed within hours.We would recommend this house to anyone!!!
