Bright colors and tasteful accents of nautical decor boost your mood and help relax the mind.

fantastic family friendly home
we had the best stay - the listing was exactly as described yet somehow even better in person. proximity to the beach, the grocery store and dining options were all super close and convenient. communication with the owner couldn’t have been better - I think the longest I waited for a response from pre-booking to check out was 30-seconds. perfect location, perfect house for our family, perfect getaway. 10 out 10 would definitely recommend.

Girls Weekend
We had an amazing time this year and this house was good choice. John was super communicative and the place was clean and well stocked. The location was perfect! The beach was quaint and beautiful. The Publix was across the street, as well as a lovely restaurant, a couple bars and coffee places. Everything within walking distance. We arrived a bit early and so happy that John had provided a picture as this house is right at the light. The cleaning crew was there and very pleasant. We unloaded our things on the porch and hung by the pool while they finished up. The house has three levels which I think is important to note, somehow we missed that part. One bedroom at the bottom with a full bath and laundry. The second floor had two bedrooms, a full bath, a kitchen and a patio and the third floor had a tiny vertical ladder to get to the bed and fouton. We are ladies in our 50's. That third level was not much used as we were afraid of breaking our neck and both of the mattresses were quite thin. The pool area had a ton of room to spread out and the pool was ready for use. One thing to note is there is not any shade and the high top chairs are in need of repair. We brought our pop up tent for the beach and it worked well at the pool as well. One night there was a thunderstorm and we would have loved to stay outside but there is no covered area. The bottom level is semi covered by a porch above, but it is slatted so rain come in. All in all it was a great time!

Beach stay
We enjoyed our time in Vilano. The house was comfortable but had some minor issues (no water pressure in the showers, fridge water dispenser didn’t work properly, no kitchen table, way more stairs than I realized which isn’t ideal for young/small kids, badly stained beach and bath towels. The shed with beach/pool toys was a bit chaotic and disorganized and we saw a couple mice/rats hanging out in there). The location was great for the adults but still a little ways away if you’re traveling with little kids or lots of stuff to bring to the beach. The pool was definitely the best part of this home! The water was warm and it was so spacious.

Great stay at the coast
Loved our stay. The pool area was incredible and such a convenient location with the beach just a short walk away(my 2 year old did it twice a day no issues!) plus having the Publix across the street is a big help. The drive to downtown st Augustine was less than 10 minutes and could walk to the fishing pier with a view of downtown. Would 10/10 stay again.

Loved it!
This property was everything we wanted & more! It is in the perfect location. My group did not have a car, so the Publix and other restaurants across the street were amazing! The Uber into town was only 10-15 minutes, too. Also, the beach was not crowded and it was so clean! The host is also very responsive and friendly. Everyone in my group could not stop raving about the house. Thanks again, John!

Enjoy!
My family and I enjoyed our stay! The house with a pool in the back yard and a 5 minute walk to the beach was great. The house is just like the pictures and contact with the owner was easy.
The pull out bed in the downstairs bedroom needs to be replaced immediately! It CAN NOT be used!!! You will fall through. Don’t count that in your sleep count.
The only thing I did NOT like….we had to take the garbage cans to the road for pick up and bring them back to the house.

Wonderful surprise
I was a little worried at first because of the proximity to the main road, but it was never an issue. Walk to the beach was short and pool was fabulous. We even walked to the Publix for necessities. There is a nature walk across the street that goes under the bridge. We enjoyed looking for crabs there. Great location. Kids really loved the loft. I would love to go back again.
