Front of Beachhouse

Description of the St Augustine vacation home rental

This elegant, but comfortable home is decorated in the style of the Caribbean. The entire house is floored in beautiful porcelain terra cotta tiles, and the windows and doors are covered with wide plantation shutters. The open living-dining-kitchen area is located on the second floor. This comfortable and relaxed area is decorated with high quality West Indies style furniture. The living area opens onto a covered deck, which runs the length of the house. This adds significant space to the living area and allows adults to keep a watchful eye on children playing on the beach below. This deck is furnished with a large dining table and several chairs. The second floor deck offers great views and easy access to the beach. Our guest ''s report that they absolutely love to sit on the deck and watch the dolphins '' jump, the pelicans zoom in for a catch, and the sea gulls flying in military formation. Of course, swimming, shelling, gathering sharks' teeth, walking, surf fishing, and sunning on the beach are everyday activities. Often tide pools form and make baby-sized swimming pools on the beach for the toddlers.

The dining area overlooks the ocean through a large set of bay windows. This area is fitted with a teak farm table that has seating for everyone. The gourmet kitchen has beautiful granite counters and is equipped with a large refrigerator, dishwasher, garbage disposal, icemaker, smooth top electric range, and microwave. There is also a built-in ice maker that holds 25lbs of ice. You will find other conveniences, including a blender, mixer, toaster, and drip coffee pot. We provide a complete supply of dishes, flatware, storage containers, casserole dishes, and cooking utensils. The kitchen is completely open to the view of the living-dining area and the ocean beyond.

This luxury home sleeps eleven guests. It has four bedroom suites, each with its own private bath. All bedrooms have their own television and VCR or DVD player. The three main bedroom suites have sliding glass doors that open onto oceanfront decks. The fourth suite also has great ocean views. The living room has a sofa sleeper that converts to a double bed. The bed does not have a regular sofa sleeper mattress; it has an air mattress which makes this bed VERY comfortable. The living room sleeping area has even more fantastic views!

The sleeping accommodations are situated to provide comfort, luxury, and wonderful views. All are equipped with top quality mattresses and linens, including down comforters and extra pillows.

The vivid blue master suite is located on the third floor. It contains a king size bed with a flat screen LCD television mounted in front of the bed for watching television in bed. There is a separate sitting area with two plantation chairs for lounging. This area has an entertainment center with another television and Stereo/DVD/CD/MP3 player. There is also a private luxurious bath with a soaking tub, separate shower and large vanity adjoining the bedroom.

Sharing the third floor with the master suite is the cheery yellow bedroom, with twin beds, television, VCR, walk-in closet and private bath. Both bedrooms on the third floor have sliding glass doors that open onto another deck. This deck is furnished with several comfortable lounge chairs.

Also on the third floor, overlooking the ocean is a state of the art computer center equipped with high-speed Internet connection. Wifi Internet Connections are availible. A fax machine and answering machine are also in the house. If you need to keep in contact with people back home, you can make FREE Unlimited Long Distance Calls throughout the United States.

On the second floor, across from the living area, is the third bedroom, which is painted a lively kiwi green. It contains a queen size bed, television, VCR/DVD combo, CD player, walk-in closet and a private bath. This room also has sliding glass doors that open onto the second floor deck. The views from both decks are absolutely fantastic!

On the ground floor, a comfortable bunkroom can serve as a children ''s getaway. A bunk bed, with a double mattress on the bottom, and a twin on top will sleep three (these are regular mattresses, not ''bunkies '', so they are VERY comfortable). The room has it own private bath and television with VCR. For the comfort and safety of the babies in your group, we provide a crib, booster chair, monitor, stair gate and pack and go playpen.

On the ground floor is a laundry center with a full size washer and dryer. There is also a garage where a large gas grill is kept for your grilling enjoyment.

Would you like to forget about cleaning for the week' Daily maid service is available. Try our Romance Package and enjoy a couple ''s massage and candlelight dinner on the beach.
The beach is very private. Stairs from the second balcony, with a latch gate, lead you directly to the beach. Children will love the beach toys and fishing poles that are provided. Adults will appreciate the beach chairs, lounges, beach towels, and umbrellas that make relaxing on the beach so pleasant, as well as outdoor showers for rinsing sandy bodies. This beach house is designed for vacationers who want privacy, relaxation, room to stroll, and luxury accommodations.

 Great family beach vacation, October 19, 2007

By Regina (Gainesville, FL USA and Germany)

We had a wonderful family reunion with my sister and her children at the beach house. It was beautifully equipped and the children absolutely loved the proximity to the water. It is perfect for family get-togethers, and the kitchen is superbly equipped for meals.
