Aqua Vista - Cozy beach home w/ large deck

Half a mile from the Atlantic shoreline, Aqua Vista sits on the quiet island of Summer Haven - a serene coastal community just 20 minutes south of historic St. Augustine. Designed for families and groups, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home sleeps 10 and delivers the kind of easy, unhurried beach vacation that stays with you long after you've packed up and headed home. Sorry, no pets.
 
Living space
Inside, the living room offers comfortable seating and an HDTV with streaming, making it a natural gathering spot after a day on the water. A dedicated workspace is available for anyone who needs to stay connected, and ceiling fans and central air conditioning keep the home cool and comfortable throughout your stay.
 
Kitchen & dining
The full kitchen is well-equipped for everything from quick breakfasts to full group dinners. You'll find a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, and all the cooking basics and dishes you need. A dining table brings everyone together for shared meals.
 
Sleeping arrangements
Four bedrooms and 5 beds sleep up to 10 guests with ease. Bed linens, towels, hangers, and an iron are all provided so you can travel light and settle in fast.
 
Bathrooms
Three full bathrooms are stocked with the essentials - towels, soap, and toilet paper. A bathtub and hair dryer are also available.
 
Outdoor & extras
Step outside to the patio or balcony and fire up the BBQ grill for an evening cookout. Free driveway parking for up to 2 vehicles is included. A washer and dryer are on-site for longer stays, and keypad self check-in means a smooth, flexible arrival on your schedule. Home safety features include a smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit for added peace of mind.
 
Location
Aqua Vista is nestled on the east side of A1A, half a mile from the beach. Within 30 minutes you can explore Marineland, Fort Matanzas National Monument, and the Spanish colonial streets of downtown St. Augustine. Fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Matanzas Inlet, a well-regarded spot for casting a line along Florida's Historic Coast.

Ideal location for a beach and Saint Augustine family vacation.

Three generations enjoyed this retreat that enjoys easy beach access, very close proximity to Marineland and Fort Matanzas, and a fairly short drive to St. Augustine. Home is very family friendly. We had an amazing week!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at Aqua Vista. It is a great location for walks to the inlet, and you can hear the ocean from the screened-in balcony. Easy drive to our favorite Crescent Beach, either drive-on or park at the various lots along A1A. The house can use a refresher of kitchen supplies, some interior painting, grill cleaning supplies, updated front porch furniture, and beach chairs. A desk for remote work would be nice too. The house was super clean, and the beds were comfy. Plenty of space for a big family.We would stay here again.

A little disappointed.

No propane when we checked in so we had no hot water or stove for two days. Listing didn’t say there was a grill so we planned on using the stove. The upstairs air conditioning was faulting out. It was 86 when we checked in. Air conditioner wasn’t fixed for a week. My husband and sons worked to get the hot water heater and air conditioner to work. Oven wasn’t fixed before we left. The broiler only worked so my husband was able to switch it out so we could use the oven when we needed it. You had to run the dryer two or three times to dry a load of wash. The house needs to be updated and painted. The yard needs to be cleaned up and there were mouse droppings in the garage. Kitchen needs more bowls and utensils. The house needs some care given to it.

A few issues but overall a good stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property had some cleaning issues and while the realtor offered to send the cleaners again we had already gone to target that nite to get a mop, cleaning supplies, and a new coffee pot. (Which we did not leave there). At the end of our stay the realtor provided half our cleaning fee back. The location of the property is pretty good, not a lot of traffic down the small street but it is about 100 yds from A1A and when the motorcycle were around it was loud. It's also 100 yards from the water though. There is not a beach, but a very rocky overlook. (We did not need a beach but loved the view). The house is beautifully furnished, nice decor, but it needs some TLC. For the price, I expected more.
