We had a very nice time in St Augustine staying in this exceptional studio apartment. It was very private with a fenced yard for our dogs. Everything you could imagine was provided, other than food. My wife liked the frying pans so much she ordered a set as soon as we got home. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance and the beach was just across the street. The only negative thing I can think of was having to leave. Thanks for having us!

A wonderful getaway

The accommodations were perfect for us and our dogs. Being able to have the back yard to ourselves made it very easy to let our "girls" come in and out as needed. Location right across from the beach was easy access and we had some of the Best tacos from Taco Shop right on the corner, so good we had them both nights :-)

Adorable 1 bedroom apt, close to beach

My friend and I traveled to St Augustine for a wedding. This 1 bedroom apartment was clean, quiet and very nicely furnished. It was a short walk to the beach and close to restaurants and a coffee shop. We only stayed 2 days but loved it here. Love that the owners allow dogs too. We couldn’t bring ours on this trip but will remember the dog friendliness of this vrbo next visit to St Augustine. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
