Oleander - Charming Cottage Downtown - Steps to the Beach!
Oleander Cottage: A Bright and Airy Escape in Flagler Beach
Oleander Cottage welcomes you with its spacious open floor plan, designed for both lively gatherings and peaceful solitude. Nestled in the heart of Casas de la Playa Village, this charming retreat places you among a vibrant cluster of vacation cottages while offering a private sanctuary to unwind.
With large windows on three sides, the cottage is bathed in natural beach light, creating a warm and tropical ambiance. Sliding glass doors open onto a screened porch, seamlessly extending the living space to an inviting outdoor patio—perfect for soaking in the coastal atmosphere. After a refreshing swim in the ocean, take advantage of the convenient outdoor shower before settling in for the evening.
The cottage features a queen-size bedroom, a private bathroom, and thoughtful storage solutions—including a bedroom closet, a kitchen pantry, and a half-closet with built-in drawers in the bathroom, ensuring a clutter-free stay.
When it’s time to relax, enjoy flat-screen TVs in both the living room and bedroom, or disconnect entirely and embrace the tranquility of your surroundings. The fully equipped kitchen, complete with a dishwasher, makes cooking and cleanup effortless, whether you’re preparing a family feast or a quiet late-night snack.

We had a great stay at the Oleander Cottage! The cottage was clean, very open and light! We were in walking distance of every thing we needed. We love Flagler Beach even though we live a short distance away in Ormond Beach! It was enjoyable to have a little getaway from home! Our host Andres was so helpful with everything! Would definitely book again in the future when we want a Flagler Beach getaway!
We had a wonderful stay at Casa de Playa. We stayed in the Oleander cottage and it was perfect. It was very clean and nicely stocked with amenities. The private outdoor grounds and patio were beautiful and perfect to sit out at in the morning for coffee or evening for a drink. Andréas commication was prompt and very accommodating. We will definitely stay again.
The location is perfectly walkable to anywhere on Flagler Beach that you want to go. We had our dog, so it is a bit of a hike to get to dog beach. Walked it once, then drove the other times.
Weather was miserable, so it was important to us to have so many restaurants nearby.
This was overall a nice rental property. Location was great! Easy walk to the beach, coffee, and food. (The best food we found was at Break Awayz.) Parking was easy as well. Could have been a tad cleaner, but wasn't lacking any necessities. Kitchen knives could have been sharper. The bar around the corner (Finn's) is pretty loud at night, if you like to go to bed before 1 or 2 am, but we packed a noise machine based off of previous reviews. The A/C was difficult to regulate, so I was very glad that I packed a hoodie and a blanket. There is no privacy at night in the main living area--there is only a sheer curtain "covering" a full glass window front door, so just be aware of that. The host was very nice and available if we needed him.
Oleander is a little slice of heaven for those of us that are low key and down to earth. This eclectic little cottage is 1/2 a block off all that Flagler has to offer, including the beach, gift shops, lively bars and first class food…..all within walking distance from your own private parking at Oleander.
Having booked a lot of host houses throughout the US, I can say with great confidence that Andrea is THE BEST host (and I’ve had a lot of great ones) I’ve ever encountered. Not only did he answer all my pesky questions in the weeks leading up to our visit, but he also provided great flexibility on my arrival. His cottage provides all the simplest provisions (beach chairs and umbrella, small cooler, etc.), but he also quickly replaced a missing items to ensure that we had a comfortable day at the beach.
It’s not the Ritz folks, but it’s home. ♥️
Very nice place to stay in laid back town. Everything is within walking distance. Nice beach and beach front restaurants. If you want Miami Beach this is not for you!
Location, location, location!!! This very cute beach cottage is close to everything... the beach, wonderful restaurants, and more. So, if you like to park your automobile after arrival and not use it again until time to leave this is the place for you. Definitely would stay here again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at the Oleander cottage. We loved Betty Steflik Nature Preserve and all the attractions, restaurants, bars, etc. nearby. The location was convenient and Andres was a pleasure to work with. We had the opportunity to meet him during our stay and he was very gracious. The cottage is old time Florida but very well appointed. We would definitely stay again!

Great little beach place!
This cottage is convenient to everything in Flagler Beach!! We had a wonderful time. Andres is a great host --- everything we needed was there and ready when we arrived! Walked to get coffee each morning, enjoyed the Farmer's Market Friday and Saturday, took a quick trip to St. Augustine -- we couldn't beat it and will definitely be back. Thanks!

Beautiful one bedroom a block from the beach.
This recently remodeled one bedroom is perfect. It is one block from the beach and there are lost of places to eat near by. The place is tastefully furnished to the last detail. There is off street parking. It's just a block to the beach and there are a number of close eat in or out restaurants. I love every moment and can hardly wait to return.
If you enjoy hotel chains with stale, identical rooms…or if you love waiting for a crowded elevator at a condo…this isn’t the place for you…BUT…if you want a unique, comfortable little cottage with a “local” vibe, this is the one!! It’s located in the heart of Flagler Beach but is enclosed with beautiful landscaping for privacy. The entry way lights up with colored lights at night, perfect for relaxing at the patio table and enjoying the ocean breeze…in the morning, it’s a one minute walk to watch sunrise on the beach! Andres provides everything you need and is such a thoughtful host! We absolutely loved this one and will definitely be returning!
This was our first experience using VRBO and my husband & I were very pleased. The accommodations were very comfortable and very clean. Andres', our contact person, sent text prior to arrival time and offered for us to contact him if we should have a problem. Happy to say that everything was perfect! I've already referred a friend for their next get away!.
The place was perfect for what we were looking for. Perfect little neighborhood and location. Quick walk across A1A to the beach and little shops/diners everywhere. My wife and daughter loved the place as well. Looking forward to visiting again!
We had a wonderful stay! The property was super clean and thoughtfully decorated. We enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch in the evening. The location was perfect as well in relation to shops, restaurants and the beach. The host was lovely to deal with. We will definitely be back!
