Relaxing stay that had everything we needed!
My partner, his family and 2 dogs stayed here and we had an amazing time! The dogs loved the backyard and the dog rug as well as all the dog amenities in the house. They had everything you would need for a beach day or a fun pool day! Would definitely come back!

Best stay in st augustine hands down
We stay in st augustine often and this was the best yet. They thought of everything you need for a stay amd provided it. Pool, hot tub, dog run, games, and more . Every switch and cabinet is plainly labeled makikg it easy to find what you need. The hosts are incredible communicators, the instructions are clear and plainly displayed. the home is spotless and in a great side of town near many local places and a mile and a half from downtown. Doesmt get any better then here They

Awesome location fabulous pool and hot tub
We absolutely loved our stay.
The hosts was amazing with communication. There were laminated notes explaining EVERYTHING and a book in addition to that
There were notes for lights and coffee maker and fans and hot tub.
Nothing was left for fumbling around trying to find “how to work this”
The home was in a quiet neighborhood, walking distance to old town.
Everything was clean and lovely. Exactly as pictured.
We loved staying here.

Perfect Family Trip
We stayed at historic hideaway for a week. We were here to drop off our son at Flagler College. The house was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted. It is about 20 minute walk to George St where you will find all the shops and restaurants.
The beach is a quick drive, about 10 min
There is a brewery up the street from the house that has great beer. Pets and children are welcome.
The house has everything you need, from kitchen supplies to shampoo.
The pool was perfect for our family, mom, dad and 3 teenage boys.
We will definitely be returning! Thank you Vanessa.

Perfect vacation home!
Our stay at the Historic Hideaway was top-notch on every level. Not only was everything exactly as advertised, there were lots of little personal touches that made our stay really special. Everything about the home is a nod to its historic character and terrific location in St. Augustine. We walked to breakfast almost everyday. The outdoor facilities cannot be beat; it is truly a tucked-away oasis perfect for any vacation. The accommodations were very child and baby-friendly which was much appreciated for our group. Hosts were communicative and responsive. We cannot wait to return!
