About this property

A+++ "Best Beachfront on Crescent Beach"

  • Consistently the best reviewed house on Crescent Beach.
    This world class beach is on Anastasia Island; 20 miles of flat, wide, talcum powder like sand great for walking, jogging, biking or fishing on the hard-packed sand, sunbathing, birding, and surfing when waters are rough.
    Location, location, location, says it all. You will not find another listing this PRIVATE & QUIET on this ocean beach. No condo hallways, no strangers or neighbors you can hear. This house has a private walkway to spectacular Crescent Beach. You won't even see another person -- unless you want to. Hit the beach for a swim or a walk (you can go for miles) there are restaurants and bars within walking distance, but at the house, it's you and the ocean.

    One of very few privately owned houses ON Crescent Beach for rent. It is simply the best. 80% of our guests are return renters.
    This house reflects a way of being in Florida that values tradition over trend. The vibe is personal, and chill — a Florida retreat that feels like it’s always been part of the landscape, yet perfectly yours for the moment.

    If you want, jump into the car and the world of zoo's, museums, architecture and history is yours. Dozens of parks and ecological destinations within miles. Rent a bike, board, horse or a kayak to see things from another angle-- BUT... it's not easy to leave that deck!
    Please take time to read the REVIEWS, this house does not disappoint.

    Perfect house for the family refresh, Big Chill week, girls get away OR a romantic honeymoon/anniversary! 3,000 sq ft. with room for everyone to have space of their own. (We do not take children or pets)
    Sunrise is spectacular!

We absolutely loved our stay at this incredible home. The home is impeccably clean and is an absolute visual treat with a decorative style that is warm, inviting, and relaxing. The host clearly has an incredible eye for design, making this spacious home feel super cozy. The location of the home is perfect. The view from the large windows and spacious outdoor area are simply breathtaking to say the least. We enjoyed watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee, sunset dinners and all the time in between. As one who loves to cook, the spacious kitchen area is amazing with everything needed for any size meal. We loved the private walkway and the cozy sitting area overlooking the beach. We also loved the convenient area on the outdoor space to wash off the sand from a day at the beach. We have been coming to St. Augustine for years and this stay was by far the best. It exceeded ALL our expectations. The host was wonderful. The communication and information was superb. We have nothing but the highest compliments and regards. We have found our spot. We look forward to returning and staying here each time we visit.

Amazing Beach House

We were fortunate this year to stay two weeks! The house is perfect. The location is perfect. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with our boys and their significant others. My husband helped out the volunteers on turtle beach patrol this year and loved every minute! We enjoyed seeing a large box turtle up by the deck. We even saw a small stingray swim along the shore . Ann is such a great host and easy to contact when needed. Until next time!!

Breathtaking!

This is not just a rental property. This is a home. It has breathtaking views of the beach from the house. However, it’s so private you don’t know anyone else is on the beach until you go down to the beach! We had an amazing time and the beach was beautiful. I have not been to the Atlantic side before this trip. We will definitely come back and stay again. It’s very hard to leave this place. This home is beautiful and very well stocked, and we will definitely come back.

Cozy, Comfortable, and Beautiful

Loved our stay! Even better than the pictures. Wonderful week with our adult children. The layout in this house is so unique. It has great character and comfort. Spacious enough to give everyone room and cozy enough with lots of places to sit and visit. Great views of the ocean and we loved the beach accessibility. Appreciated the owner’s suggestion of Viola’s for dinner. Delicious! Short walk down the beach to Safe Harbor and really enjoyed our fresh fish meals. Kitchen was set up with everything we needed for cooking as well. Highly recommend!!

Amazing beach house

I can’t say enough good things about this wonderful beach house. The house is much bigger than it looks in the photos. Beautifully decorated throughout with so much character. Ann certainly has taste. And it was immaculate. As another reviewer said, the photos in the listing do not do it justice. When we pulled into the very private driveway and saw the house for the first time, my family all said “wow.”Kitchen is fantastic and very well stocked. Love the whole layout of the house. Our teens loved having their own bathrooms. Great views from everywhere on the top level. Beds and furniture all quite comfortable.Location is very quiet and private. Even on the 4th of July there was plenty of space on the beach. And once you are up at the house you are in your own world. Such vast views yet so private. Appreciated that Ann has a supply of beach chairs and supplies available…so convenient. Ann is a great host. Very responsive for questions, though we had no problems at all. There is a reason every review is 10/10. The only downside was having to force my family to leave at the end of the week. Can’t wait to come back!

You will not find a better host than Ann. She was a delight and extremely responsive. The entire process from booking to checkout was effortless and efficient.The house is private and has a view that is breathtaking. You have your own private boardwalk to the beach The decor is totally unique and is obviously a collection of years of one of a kind art and culture. This is NOT a cookie cutter developer-furnished rental. This house is a memorable and delightful experience. We absolutely loved our stay.

We had a wonderfull stay. The home was a classic style that conjured up images of Ernest Hemingway writing in Key West. It was immaculate and stocked with every household item imaginable. The location in Crescent beach is vintage old south Florida seclusion and privacy. The views the dunes and beach from the two separate lving rooms both with floor to ceiling windows was panoramic and amazing and only bested by going out to relax on the deck chairs. The owner was extrrmely pleasant and attentive. A routine maintenence issue was immediatrly attended to. We arelook8ng forward to a return visit.
