Space
Welcome to “Summer Breeze”. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath town home sits right on the beach and is available for your next vacation. When you enter on the 2nd floor, you find yourself in the main living area. Here, you have a fully stocked kitchen, complete with stainless appliances, granite counter tops, and all of the cookware and dinnerware you could need. There’s even a wine cooler to keep your favorite vino just the right temperature. The dining and living area are an open room. The dining table seats 6 and there is stool seating for 4 at the breakfast bar. The living area features a comfy leather sofa, love seat and recliner. There is a powder room on this floor, with a sink and toilet. Off of the living area is an oceanfront balcony with seating and a gas grill. All of the bedrooms are upstairs. The master bedroom has a king bed, TV, dresser, and an ocean front balcony. The master bathroom has a step-in shower. The 2nd bedroom also has a king bed, TV, dresser, and access to the oceanfront balcony. The 3rd bedroom has a bunk bed, consisting of two full-over-full mattresses. There is also a TV in this bedroom. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms share a full bathroom with a shower/tub combination. There is a new overlook deck stationed on top of the dune. This is a great place to lay out and work on your tan, or enjoy some afternoon beverages as the sun sets. At the moment, St. Johns County is not allowing us to build any stairs through the dune to the beach, so you walk down the sand “ramp” that we have dug out. This may be difficult for those who have mobility issues, but doesn’t appear to be causing issues for most of our guests. Experience the beauty of sandy shores where you can swim, sunbathe, surf, paddleboard, and fish. Take leisurely walks along the beach to discover treasures like shark teeth, sand dollars, and sea glass. Explore Anastasia State Park for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, birdwatching, and picnicking in a stunning coastal setting. Discover the rich history of Historic St. Augustine by visiting landmarks like Castillo de San Marcos, St. Augustine Lighthouse and Maritime Museum, and the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park. Stroll down St. George Street, a pedestrian only thoroughfare in the heart of the historic district, lined with charming shops, restaurants, galleries, and historic sites. Immerse yourself in the Gilded Age at the Lightner Museum, housed in a historic hotel, showcasing a diverse collection of art, antiques, and artifacts. Experience the thrill of getting up close to alligators, crocodiles, and exotic animals at St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park, which also offers educational shows, zip lines, and exhibits of native Florida wildlife. Take a scenic short ferry ride to Fort Matanzas National Monument, a historic Spanish fort located on Rattlesnake Island. Learn about its role in protecting St. Augustine during the colonial period while enjoying views of the surrounding marshlands. Indulge in delicious cuisine at the many restaurants in St. Augustine, cafes, and eateries. From fresh seafood to international fare, there is something to satisfy every palate, including popular spots like 180 Vilano Grill and Pizza, Briskys BBQ, and Beaches at Vilano.

Lovely place, right in the beach, which was pretty private and lovely. The furnishings show their age but everything was clean and workable.
