About this property

Wake up to ocean breezes!

  • Summary:

    Newly renovated in 2026, Coastal Keepsake is an oceanfront 2-bedroom, 1-bath Butler Beach retreat with sweeping Atlantic views, direct beach access, and a spacious wraparound deck, just 15 minutes south of historic St. Augustine.



    The Space:

    Welcome to Coastal Keepsake, our family’s oceanfront getaway in St. Augustine. Tucked away in the quiet neighborhood of Butler Beach, just 15 minutes south of historic St. Augustine, it’s the perfect spot for sun, sand, and easy beach days. Wake up to the sound of the waves, grab your coffee, and catch the sunrise over the Atlantic. With ocean views and the beach just steps away, vacation mode starts the moment you arrive!



    Newly Renovated



    Fully renovated in 2026, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath beach house features brand-new furnishings, beds, and finishes throughout. The primary bedroom features a comfortable queen bed, while the second bedroom includes a queen bed plus a single bed. A queen-size sleeper sofa in the living room provides additional sleeping space. At the heart of the home is a brand-new kitchen featuring stainless-steel appliances, beautiful countertops, and everything you need for meals at home. The bathroom has also been completely renovated with fresh, modern finishes. For added convenience during your stay, the home also includes a brand-new washer and dryer. An open-concept living area offers plenty of comfortable seating for everyone to gather around the large TV, share a meal, play games, or simply spend time together, all with the Atlantic Ocean just outside your back door.



    Oceanfront Outdoor Living



    One of our favorite features of Coastal Keepsake is the outdoor deck, which stretches across the ocean-facing side of the house and wraps around a large portion of the south side. Start your morning with coffee while watching an unforgettable sunrise, settle in with a book and the sound of the waves, or simply relax and enjoy the ocean breeze. Comfortable outdoor furniture provides plenty of room to unwind, and a picnic table makes outdoor meals with family and friends easy. Enjoy the BBQ or prepare a meal in the fully equipped kitchen and dine outdoors with a view.



    The Beach Is Just Steps Away



    When you're ready for the beach, getting there couldn't be easier. A path directly adjacent to the house winds through the dunes to the sand, so you can spend your days swimming, lounging, or walking on the shoreline. And there's no need to pack all the bulky beach gear. We provide beach towels, an umbrella, beach chairs, and a wagon to help carry everything down to the shore. After a day of sand and surf, rinse off in the private outdoor shower before heading inside to relax.



    Whether you're planning a family or friends beach vacation, a relaxing coastal escape, or simply some much-needed time together, Coastal Keepsake is the perfect place to kick back, soak up the St. Augustine sunshine, and make some great memories by the sea!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This property was beautiful, very tastefully arranged, even the smallest details thought of. Everything was spotless, immaculate, the view idyllic, the weather wonderful. We could easily watch the sunrise and moonrise from the porch. The footpath to the beach is short and sandy, but we did occasionally pick up sandspurs.Communication with the host was easy, and the check out list was very reasonable.We saw gopher turtles in the dunes and in the carport, a black snake on the foot path who was harmless and never meant to cross paths with us, and two regal felines who reside next door but do not deign to mingle with guests.All in all, a ten out of ten, and we would definitely recommend.
