Sail Away- Lovely Home, Heated Pool, Near Beach, Foosball Table, Pet Friendly

Welcome to the Sail Away Beach Retreat! We have a heated private pool at the property! Free access to Anastasia State Park via neighborhood beach gate!

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay. Newly furnished, spotlessly clean, nautical themed- 4 bedroom, spacious ranch in the heart of Anastasia Island.

On a cul de sac, we are only 3 miles from St. Augustine city! We are also 0.7 miles (less than a 15 minute walk) from the St. Augustine Amphitheatre! King beds in three bedrooms and a bunk with an additional twin bed in kids room. There are also 2 single sized futons in the Florida Room. Everything you need from a fully appointed kitchen, dining room, free WIFI, huge 86” Smart TV, atrium play room for kids! There’s even a lemon and fig tree you are welcome to when they ripen! Wonderful sites, such as the Alligator Farm, Lighthouse, Farmer’s Market weekly at St. John’s pier, all will add to your vacation.

The history of St. Augustine is incomparable with almost any other on our coast. Founded in 1565 it is chock full of amazing places to visit, from the oldest house to the first schoolroom, to the impenetrable fort built by the Spanish. Lincolnville, just south of downtown St. Augustine takes you on a walking tour of the history of the civil rights movement noting where Martin Luther King stayed on numerous occasions. Needless to say, there’s also so many unique shops, and the restaurants are so varied and truly have an international flavor! There are things to do no matter the weather! You can take a free boat ride to Fort Matanzas and learn the history about the battles fought. Further south is Marineland where you can swim with dolphins!

The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill. There are always concerts at St. Augustine Amphitheatre and events at Francis Field as well. You will never run out of things to do here in St. Augustine. It is probably one of the most beautiful places in all of Florida, and for sure one of the most photographed! Come and see for yourself!

We provide a neighborhood beach gate code. You can walk to that access, you may not leave a car there. Free beach access included with rental does NOT include driving access to Anastasia State Park.

The cleaning company provides a limited amount of basic necessities (toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher/laundry soap, etc.) to get you started, you will want to bring some with you. Garbage and recycling must be taken out to the street Sunday night for Monday morning pickup.

Pets and Service Animals: You must let us know if you are bringing an animal to the home, even if it is a service animal! It's important to let the cleaners know. Up to 2 dogs are allowed with a nonrefundable pet fee. They must be less than 50lbs each and no aggressive breeds. NO CATS! Please do not allow your dogs to jump up onto the beds or couches. If the dogs are accustomed to being allowed on the furniture at home, please bring blankets to protect the surfaces. If you forget to bring blankets, let us know and we will provide you with some. If you bring a pet and do not tell us or pay the fee, we will charge your damage deposit for the pet fee plus $100 for the unexpected extra services required to clean the house.

The pool heater thermostat is set to a temperature between 78 and 85 degrees F, depending on the time of the year. If the daytime air temp doesn't get above 60 degrees the pool will have a difficult time staying heated.

Per St Johns County regulations, only ten people are allowed per rental, not counting children 12-years-old or younger. That means this property is allowed up to 10 adults and the rest of the guests must be 12 and under.

We don't offer refunds or reschedule stays during hurricane season, even if there is an evacuation order. Please purchase trip insurance for your stay if this is a concern.

The home's owner is a handyman and he might stop by if he needs tools or other items from the garage without notice. He will not access the house though at any time without prior permission from guests.

This house worked out so well for us! Couple with dogs traveling with in-laws. Wanted split floor plan and space to not feel on top of each other. The back yard is backing up to a major road but you really wouldn’t know it. The fencing situation is amazing for those with furry friends. I was never worried about our pups, as the perimeter was very secure. The house decor is dated but it really didn’t take away from the stay. Kitchen was very functional and had a lot of things we normally don’t find in a Vrbo ( nice knives is one my hubby is always happy about) . The location is amazing. We were minutes to the beach and minutes to downtown. We came for nights of lights, but ended up spending more of our time out on Anastasia island ! We found our stay very comfortable, and convenient for everything we wanted to do! We even swam in the heated pool Christmas morning, it was a treat ! House is on a small nice culdesac with plenty of parking. Two different living room areas with TVs, nice to have two options considering the bedrooms don’t have TVs. Very close to a nice public boat ramp, made dropping our little boat for cruises very quick and easy! We would absolutely come back and stay here! Was a lovely vacation!

This spacious house was the perfect retreat for our two families of eight adults. Excellent communication from the host, who provided all access info (including the best route to the neighborhood beach gate) several days prior to the stay and was very responsive with general inquiries. The house was clean and well stocked with essentials. There were also a few beach towels and chairs, as well as pool toys and floats. The pool was clean and the outdoor area was perfect spot to relax. The landscaping and rope lighting around the pool at night made the outdoor space even more inviting. The neighborhood beach access was a bit too far for us to walk, but a couple of us brought bikes and found the ride and access very easy. Anastasia State Park was conveniently located and our preferred method for beach access. Great accommodations and location!

Comfortable property Great location!

This well appointed beach house with a great pool and yard was perfect for our growing family’s relaxing getaway. Our pups enjoyed the walk through the neighborhood to the state park with the beautiful beach. Our baby grandson loved splashing in the pool. The kitchen is very well stocked. The beds are comfortable and property very clean. David the host was extremely responsive to our questions and requests before and during our stay. The road noise when outside was occasionally bothersome, but not noticeable inside the house. We would book with these hosts at this property again.

Very nice location close to beach. Furniture and bed were comfortable. We stayed 6 weeks and felt like home. Owner was very nice and was very responsive to our requests. The only negative is the A1A traffic next to the house.

Perfect location

We like to travel with our dog and was searching for a place close to the Saint Augustine amphitheater. This place was close enough that we were able to walk to the show. The property has several isolated areas in the yard which was nice for the dog to explore. The heated swimming pool was a bonus for the teenager. A nice quiet neighborhood for walking the dog. All this property sits close to A1A the noise from traffic passing by in minimal. By far, one of my most pleasant VRBO stays, I look forward to returning to this property next time I’m in Saint Augustine.
