Nautical Smile

We loved staying at Nautical Smile! Within walking distance of several restaurants and such a short walk to the beach. We searched for a house that would be a good fit for our dogs as well, and this house has a great backyard space. We reached out mid stay to the hosts with two very minor things and they immediately messaged back, and came over to check on those two things same day. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend to anyone.

Loved the Nautical Smile

The house and the location are perfect for anyone looking to combine a beach vacation with some sightseeing! Everything was as promised. Between booking and arrival a new patio/firepit area was added! This was a great addition to the property that makes the yard very usable and enjoyable. We would not hesitate to choose this house again!

Loved this cute beach house!

We spent a great Easter weekend at Nautical Smile and will definitely be staying here again! The house is just as advertised and was the perfect size for our family of four (Mom, Dad, and two late teens) plus our lab Blue. It was so nice to be able to bring the dog and have no size restrictions! The home is in the perfect location - just a very short walk to the beach and close to so many shops and restaurants. The only time we got in the car was to take a short drive to the historic district. Everything about this rental was easy and enjoyable!

Homecoming

My wife and I returned to St Augustine Beach, our home for the previous twenty five years, to celebrate our birthdays and see friends. Nautical Smile was the perfect home base for us. It is a very comfortable home within walking distance to all the restaurants and activities one could ask for on the beach. The home is well stocked with everything one would need to enjoy the beach, cook, grill or relax in the huge backyard. The communication with the host was flawless and immediate. Take it from a former resident, this location and host are a 10 and we will not hesitate to book again for our next visit.

Cute, well equipped, close to beach.

We were visiting family in the area for the Christmas holiday. The rental of this home allowed us to spend time together, but not where we were constantly committed to spend all the time with each other. And, we didn't leave any bedding and towels for the family who we were visiting to have to deal with.

Steps from everything - perfect stay at the beach!

This is a terrific property - directly as advertised - 2/2 right at the beach. You are a very short walk to beach access from the house - the backyard is huge and has ample room for a pet to run around and play. They also have a nice patio area. The place was absolutely perfect for our almost week getaway - we were in town for a concert and the Ampitheatre was very close by. We were able to park for free at a nearby church and walk to the show. The downtown area where the historic locations are was close by too. Lots of shopping and dining - way too many things to do in a short 5 day stay - we look forward to returning to St. Augustine Beach soon and hope Nautical Smile is available when we come back!

Went up to move our son to college (Flagler). Took an extra day to chill. We have been in the moving process for the past month. We were able to walk to the beach and to multiple restaurants withing a couple of minutes from the house. Hoping to stay when we come back to visits our son in November.

Great for the pups!

Property was great! Super easy walk to the beach, house was clean & had all of the necessities for beaching and hanging out. The outdoor shower was great, especially with the dogs. The fenced yard was convenient for quick potty breaks, and the garage was great for beach accessory storage after a long day. Our only complaint was that there was a couple dog poops left by the people before us that our dogs stepped in upon arrival. Would recommend having the cleaning crew check this more thoroughly at turnover. Otherwise, would highly recommend this home and would absolutely stay again!

Amazing Stay at Nautical Smile

After staying in many VRBO homes in different cities this may have been our favorite. The location was within easy walking distance to beach and shops, the kids loved the bikes. Home was clean and had everything we needed. Host checked in after first day to make sure everything was going well. We are within driving distance so brought our own beach set up but didn't need to. This home had chairs, beach umbrella, sand toys and wagons in great condition which has never been my experience with beach homes. If we come back to the area would stay here again in a heart beat.
