Oceanfront Casa del Sol St Augustine Beach Home (#35920)

St Augustine, Florida
 

Description of the St Augustine vacation home rental

This ocean front home is set up as two separate units and can be rented separately or as a whole. This gives large families and their spouses, more personal space. Each level has its own kitchen and living areas, 2 bedrooms, queen sleeper or 2 twin sleepers, 2 full baths and 1 half baths. Each level sleeps 2-7 people. The whole house sleeps 14 people.

Welcome to Casa Del Sol! At the end of a private lane there awaits the cozy, casual Casa del Sol. While you are here, this is your home. Experience the therapy of waking up and looking at the waves as they reflect the morning sun. Feel the cool ocean breeze and the hot sun. Dive into the sea, walk on the beach, or just sit on the porch. Couch potatoes can watch TV while looking at the ocean through the expansive glass doors. In the evenings, stargaze and dream.

We have preserved the casual cozy feeling of our beach house while still giving you the conveniences you deserve. There are flat screen TVs in every bedroom and each living area has a large TV with DVDs and VCRs. We have games, books and water toys.

Each level accommodates 6 people easily- 7 if your family does not require a lot of personal space. Each level of the beach house is decorated differently showcasing two cities separated by 90 miles of ocean.

The lower level is called Old Havana. Tropical greens, sunset yellows, palm trees, tiles, and stained wood furniture. It feels like an oasis from the hot sun. Sit on the porch swing and let the rest of the world do all the work. This floor is at beach level so you just walk out the back porch and you are on the sand.

The upper level is called Key West. Bright apple greens, sky blues, corals, white wood furniture and wood floors. This unit has skylights so you better like bright spaces. The show stopper, however, is its spectacular view. The side of the house facing the ocean is practically all glass doors.

We have plenty of private parking and are located away from busy A1A. We have a no driving beach. This means unobstructed views and is also safer for kids. The beach is wide, flat and sandy- no cliffs or rocks like the beaches north and south of us.

There are at least 4 restaurants within one block. The closest one sells newspapers. Shops are also within walking distance. For those who need some pampering, there is a spa a couple blocks away. The restaurant at the end of the street has a public pool. The surfshop next to it rents surfboards and gives lessons.

The oldest and (in my opinion) most romantic town of St Augustine is a 10 minute drive away. There is a shuttle that takes you back and forth. Be prepared to feel like you have stepped back in time to a town somewhere in Spain.

We want Casa del Sol to become your beach home that you return to as a yearly tradition. A place where you have many great memories of carefree times with family and friends. So we have one very important rule: When you step through our trellis, please leave your troubles behind -relax and enjoy.

Area Description

Have as much relaxation or as much excitement as you like. Experience history, natural beauty, as well as man-made entertainment. Downtown St Augustine is a tourist attraction with all the trimmings but St Augustine Beach is still a wonderfully unaffected place where you feel like you are in a Caribbean island. Here you get to wear your flip flops!

 Surfing Safari, June 22, 2009
By Lisa Harrell (Eastman, GA)
This house is wonderful!!! I never want to stay anywhere else when I go to St. Augustine. It was so convenient for my husband and daughter who took surfing lessons from PIT Surf Shop at the end of the block. I was able to enjoy watching them while sitting on the porch (and even on the air conditioned living room couch :-). We were able to leave our chairs, towels, etc. on the beach while eating lunch in the house and still be able to watch them. This house is in the best location that I have ever seen!!!!

Thanks for a wonderful stay! Although we live not too far away, we felt like we really got away for a great labor day escape.

You have a lovely beachhouse- our guests loved the beach and felt so "at home" here.

Will be back- already we're trying to figure "when?". (They did come back a few months later)

Thanks again!
Jen & Rob
