About this house rental
Tucked away behind St. Augustine’s Nationally Registered Fullerwood Park on the Intracoastal watershed, you’ll find a house that oozes old Florida charm. Tourists and citizens from another era traveled north in carriages from the Oldest City to picnic among the citrus groves planted by Massachusettsan Abel A. Hildreth during the booming Flagler period. Welcome to Back Bay Hideaway, a charming house with a huge wrap-around porch that boasts both stunning tidal marsh views and the wildlife calling it home.
Back Bay Hideaway is a charming house only nine minutes from vehicle-friendly Vilano Beach boasting porch views of the vibrant tidal marsh and the wildlife that call it home.
In addition, Fort Mose Historic State Park is only 1.3 miles, as is Ponce de Leon`s Fountain of Youth. Just 1.1 miles away is the Old Jail and the Oldest Store.

8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
This is a nice property tucked away, but conveniently close. Watching the tide rise and fall from the screened in porch was such a pleasure. They were plenty of amenities, such as towels and blankets and kitchen items. Much more than we had the opportunity to use. I would recommend this to anyone who likes to get away to a private little point of land and looks over the marsh to watch birds and sit in the rocking chair and feel the breeze. The only little minus I would offer is that the beds are super hard, like cardboard. Perhaps a mattress topper or something like that would help make the mattresses a little more comfortable. It’s such a beautiful house, no need to skimp on the mattresses. Otherwise I could live there!

Close enough to all the downtown activities but like another world away. Such a beautiful setting - porches offered great opportunities for sunrise & bird watching. Clean, quiet, comfortable, well-equipped kitchen and loads of gathering space.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2025
Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay!Pros-Clean, plenty of space to spread out, quiet neighborhood, beautiful marsh views. Lots of outdoor deck space. We didn’t cook in the kitchen, but found plenty of dishes, mugs, cutlery, etc. Easy check in/check out. Cons-The 4th bedroom/3rd bathroom are in a separate “cottage”. Fine for groups with adults/older teens, but could pose a problem for families with young kids. Beds are FIRM. Like sleeping on the floor firm. We found them to be incredibly uncomfortable. We also were not fans of the tile floors. We tried to respect the “no shoes” policy, but found the floors to be hard and cold.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Mar 2025
Location was amazing. So peaceful and private. Really enjoyed coffee on the porch for sunrise and evening chats looking at marsh and wildlife. The house had many uniquely inconvenient quirks. I suppose none of them ruined our stay but might need some attention. Was looking forward to a soaking in bathtub however disappointed that it cannot hold water and is for decoration only plus other small disappointments. However, Management was wonderfully responsive to all major concerns and overall we enjoyed our stay..
