Our family loved staying here! The full kitchen, abundance of beds, and lovely view of the ocean from the window covered back wall of the living space made for a comfortable and relaxing experience as we visited St. Augustine for the first first time. Thank you to our hosts!!

Our stay at this adorable beachfront rental in Crescent Beach, Florida, was nothing short of perfect. The house itself was so charming—decorated with thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home filled with years of happy memories. You could tell that this is a home that invites a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The location couldn’t have been more convenient. Just a short drive from the heart of historic downtown St. Augustine, we enjoyed the best of both worlds: quiet, peaceful beachfront living and easy access to the vibrant culture and history of the city. It was the ideal blend for anyone looking to relax but still explore nearby attractions. Especially perfect for multi generational family vacations as this location has something for everyone. What truly set this place apart was how tranquil the area was. Crescent Beach is such a hidden gem—away from the crowds, so quiet and serene, with the only sounds being the waves and the occasional seabird. We felt so fortunate to have direct access to the beach, where we spent much of our time walking and playing on the beach, soaking in the sunrise, and being able to enjoy the ocean breeze right from the deck. Our two young kids (9 & 4) are already asking when we are going back! Overall, this was a dreamy escape, and we can’t wait to return. It was truly the perfect getaway!
