Accessibility and Availability
Neighborhood
Vilano Beach is the calm side of St. Augustine, and a 3-min walk down the road puts you on the sand at Surfside Park, where the public access has a bathroom and a shower. Guests keep calling the street quiet and the beach easy to reach, and in fall and winter the sunrise is mostly yours. Under 0.1 mi: the community playground and the pickleball, tennis and basketball courts. Publix and a row of local places sit 0.6 mi south, Vilano Pier and the water view dining are 0.9 mi, and historic downtown St. Augustine is 3.1 mi, where Nights of Lights runs November 21 to January 18. Our picks: Aunt Kate's at 2.3 mi and Caps on the Water at 2.8 mi. This is a residential pocket, so the evening buzz is across the bridge downtown.
Guest Access
The whole single-level house and the fenced yard are yours, apart from two locked closets, one in a bathroom and one in the hallway. Let yourself in whenever you arrive using the keypad on the smart lock, so there is no key handoff and no waiting on us. The driveway holds up to 4 cars. There are cameras at the front door and on the driveway, both outside.

St. Augustine, FL, United States
You will want a car here. The driveway fits up to 4 cars and parking on the premises is free. Everything in the neighborhood is on foot: the beach in 3 min, the playground and the courts under 0.1 mi. Publix is 0.6 mi, historic downtown St. Augustine 3.1 mi, and Jacksonville International Airport 51.9 mi. Those are miles rather than drive times, so leave margin for downtown traffic during Nights of Lights.
