Castillo del Sol is the ground-floor unit at 5330 Pelican Way, part of a distinctive Mediterranean-style property tucked into a quiet beachside neighborhood in St. Augustine. With graceful arches, stucco walls, and terracotta accents, the home feels like a slice of the Mediterranean dropped onto Florida's First Coast.
Inside, the open-concept layout offers around 1,060 square feet of comfortable living space with travertine tile floors throughout. The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, crisp white cabinetry, and a breakfast bar with seating for three. The adjacent dining area seats eight at a beautiful carved wood table — perfect for family meals after a long beach day. The living room is anchored by a plush sofa, recliners, and a wall-mounted smart TV, with sliding doors leading to a covered patio with a propane grill, bistro seating, and string lights overhead.
The primary bedroom offers a king bed, en-suite bathroom, walk-in closet, and direct access to the rear patio. The second bedroom features a twin-over-queen bunk bed with playful coastal décor — the queen on the bottom and a twin up top, ideal for families with kids or a mix of sleepers. A queen sleeper sofa in the living room provides additional sleeping space. Two full bathrooms, an in-unit washer and dryer, and a dedicated work-from-home desk round out the interior.
The real showstopper sits above: a massive private rooftop deck with sweeping ocean views, framed by signature Spanish archways. Whether you're catching the sunrise with coffee, lounging in the afternoon sun, or stargazing in the evening, this space transforms an ordinary stay into something memorable. Down below, the gated courtyard features a putting green, tropical landscaping, and a shared observation tower for taking in the coastline.
The beach is just a short walk away — head out the driveway, walk east about 300 feet, and you're on the wide, white sands of St. Johns County's beaches. Spend your days swimming, sunbathing, surfing, paddleboarding, or hunting for shark teeth and sand dollars along the shore. Beach chairs, an umbrella, a beach cart, and a kayak are all provided to make your days on the water effortless.
