The physical property is a stunning piece of nature. Quiet, gorgeous beach close to great restaurants and shops. The house is perfect for large families; multiple bedrooms with great ocean views.Open living space perfect for gathering. 10/10 in every category!
This was the second year I rented âSerenity Nowâ and will do it again next year if we make the same weekend plans. The property, location, and beach access are fantastic. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing beach stay in the St Augustine area.
Serenity Now was perfect! I had lots of questions for the home owner between booking and our stay. She always responded quickly and was very helpful. Check in was easy. The home was beautiful. The view was amazing. The location was incredible- close enough that we could get to Publix in a couple minutes and St Augustine was only a short drive yet it felt like it we had the beach to ourselves. The kitchen was well stocked. The home was ideal for our 3 generations of family with plenty of space for all of us. We can't wait to come back.
Great house right on the beach that was very comfortable for our family of 8. Awesome amenities and felt like we had a private beach. The sunrises were spectacular! Very close to all attractions and historic St. Augustine. The property manager provided excellent communication and made sure we had everything we needed to make our trip very special.
This house was amazing. It has everything you need. Having the elevator was wonderful as it allowed my 94 year old mother to join us and enjoy all the spaces. The covered back patio was our favorite place. There was a wonderful breeze everyday we were there so we spent the evening just sitting enjoying looking at the beach. I could not recommend this place more!
The covered porch was the best part for our family! My parents were able to enjoy watching everyone from the shade. The location canât be beat with everything close by. Having all towels, linens, beach chairs, and boogie boards provided made traveling from out of state easy. Host was a great communicator though out the stay. Would absolutely come here again.
Just spent a week in this beautiful beach house with family/friends. The house was impeccably clean and true to the pictures. The wrap around porch was beautiful and offered a ton of shade on hot days. The garage was stocked with beach chairs, boogy boards, etc. Kitchen was stocked with a good amount of equipment for cooking meals. The beds were nice and were comfortable. The check in and out process was seamless and communicating with the host was easy and quick. Would recommend this rental to anyone who wants a prime spot right on the beach that doesnât get very crowded. 5 Stars!
Itâs a great property and the area is still relatively quiet. The beach is far enough away from the crowds that it feels private. The house and facilities are well maintained but could definitely use an update. The attentive and helpful host made up for any issues with deck furniture. We will definitely be back for another stay.
Beautiful property close to grocery, fishing, shopping, historical sites, fine dining and more! This property and surrounding area surpassed our expectations. Thank you for sharing!! We will be back.
We visited for three nights and had a wonderful stay. You canât beat the view that comes with the home being placed directly on the beach. The house is clean and the host was very friendly and gave several suggestions to make our girls trip the absolute best. I would highly recommend.
This home is absolutely beautiful. Very clean and comfortable. Everything was just as described. The host make sure this is a great trip. There are games and beach equipment there for you use. The best part is how awesome the Hosts, (husbandand wife) greets you with that, we are happy to assist attitude and help make your stay great. We actually met the housekeeper when leaving and she is awesome. We had to complement her on how clean this home is. Great trip. The McClendon family and wife
Great stay super close to St. Augustine and related amenities. House was even better than pictures and the beach was incredible and extremely private. Had a great trip with family and friendsâŠ. Would definitely return in a heartbeat!
Property was fantastic and host was responsive and accommodating! Really enjoyed reconnecting with old friends sitting on the deck enjoying the beach! Property was well equipped and comfortable.
My whole family and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving at this beautiful beach house. It was immaculate, spacious and well equipped. The beach was steps away, and the sand was pristine. Will definitely be back again.
We had a fantastic time during our stay. The home is situated on what feels like a private beach. The entire process was a breeze and my family loved our time at the home. Everything was clean and well-equipped. I highly recommend - the view alone is worth it. And you are incredibly close to St. Augustine and to a grocery store. Great for families - my children ages 2 and 5 loved it, and my parents were able to enjoy the mornings viewing the waves. It made our pre-Disney World beach experience perfect.
We loved the house, it was so well equipped in a great location with an amazing view! Marla had great communication, she was super attentive even following a hurricane. We will be back!
I spent the weekend at this property with my wife and extended family to visit friends in the area and could not have been more pleased with the accommodations. The house was more than enough space for 8 of us and the location was perfect. We make this trip annually and I will definitely consider staying here again next year.
Great house!!!Elevator great for older family members. The area in back to the beach is alittle steep for older members, but just sitting on the deck and watching the waves is priceless. Everything is a close drive. Communication was easy and helpful. Would suggest to anyone and would come back again. Thank you!
This was one of the best places that we have stayed at. The property is well maintained and has a fantastic view. The beach front is just what we had hoped for. The host, Marla, exceeded all expectations that we had. Unfortunately part of our stay was during a tropical storm but Marla checked on us and kept us posted. Really made us feel safe and informed. We will be back in the future.
This is our third summer using this place. It has everything you need and even some things you don't know you will need. The appliances are all rather new and work well.
They always have a grill with tanks which we use a few times a week. The view is fabulous and the beach in front of this house is never crowded. The kitchen is well equipped and the double washers and dryers are so helpful.
Highly recommend.
As the name "Serenity Now" suggests, we are big fans of Seinfeld. We live for the belly ache laughter found with good friends while on vacation together. House boating, New Orleans, Cabo, African safaris and music festivals are our favorites. Whether it's a girls trip, guys trip or family vacation, travel is our number one guilty pleasure. It doesn't have to be fancy, but it must be clean, comfortable, offer good food, interesting sites and fun activities.
We searched all of Florida to find the perfect location. St. Augustine is eclectic, historic and young at heart. Flagler College contributes to the academic and artistic vibe. Old moss trees and spanish architecture make it beautiful. Great music festivals and concerts flow through the town. Farm/sea to table restaurants offer wonderful eateries. Golf, NASCAR, and football are nearby. Our beach is pristine with a long stretch of white sand that is practically private. The ocean behind our home is perfect for swimming, fishing, and offers a terrific break for boogie boarding and surfing without being dangerous for little kids.
We bought and remodeled this home to meet what we would want if we were renting a vacation home: space for the kids to hang out, an elevator to make life easy for the grandparents or those who can't walk stairs, a long covered porch perfect to shade the babies while allowing mom to be part of the action, enough sleeping space for multiple families, and a hot outdoor shower at sunset! Just walk down our back stairs and you are on the beach- NO long walk over dunes to get to the beach- ultra convenient!
