Sunburst Cottage Beachside

Come and enjoy our beautiful beach side vacation rental. Built in 1955 this Old Florida style home beautifully appointed and newly remodeled is fully furnished. The house is East of A1A Beach Blvd so there are no roads to cross. ( not Oceanfront but less than 50 yards form the beach.)

The many features include brand new appliances in the full kitchen, washer dryer, two large bedrooms, fireplace,central air and heat, a living room with two comfortable couches as well as a front porch which has a day bed and converts to two twin beds.

There are 1 1/2 baths as well as an outside hot and cold shower. The outdoor deck has a built in Hot Tub. It is on a section of Saint Augustine Beach that does not allow driving on the Beach so it is less crowded and more private. We do allow dogs and St Augustine Beach Beach is very dog friendly.

It is a short walk to the fishing pier and 14 cafes and restaurants are within walking distance. Downtown Saint Augustine is a short ten minute drive.

Everyone loves our house. It is close to the Beach and everything Saint Augustine has to offer.

Spring getaway!

We were happy to spend time at the beach and it was the perfect location, close to several bars, restaurants and beach. My only suggestion would be to purchase beach towels, there were none. If people were flying in they would be hard pressed. And I would upgrade some of the kitchen utensils otherwise we had a great time!

Great Location but ...

Sunburst cottage is centrally located but the week we were there they were replenishing the beach. The fishing pier didn't reach the ocean and we had to walk down the outside of the beach to get to the ocean. Other then that it was a great stay.

This is an old school beach bungalow. Steps from the beach. Very well decorated. Some modern renovations- but overall still that small beach cottage feel. We absolutely fell in love with it. It was perfect for our family of 4 with dogs. We love the area and have established our go-to spots when not at the beach. Owners were very nice in our limited communications. Great cottage!

This is our 4th time staying at Sunburst Cottage. It’s quiet and comfortable. Home has everything you need and then some. Very short walk to the beach and places to eat. Michael is great to communicate with and so nice. I definitely recommend staying at Sunburst Cottage.

Wonderful home steps from the beach

We really enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for our family and just what we needed. Beach access was perfect and only steps from the home. (The access does not have a boardwalk, but there is a beach access a block up from the home with a boardwalk.) The street is very quiet. We stayed over the 4th of July week and never had an issue with noise. The home is well kept and had beautiful, unique furniture. The private deck area with hot tub was enjoyable in the evenings. The trundle day bed on the porch was perfect for our two boys. The kitchen cabinets and counters are nicely updated, per the description, but are not represented in the pictures. You can tell the property owners take pride in their home and communicated great with check-in. The property is also very close to lots of restaurants and only a few blocks from the pier. There is a publix close by and other shops a short drive away. Thank you for the stay!

Did not disappoint.

This was our second time staying at Sunburst Cottage and we absolutely enjoy the location to the beach and the ability to walk to several restaurants, ice-cream shops and the farmers market on the pier. The enclosed back deck with the hot tub is nice for relaxing in the morning or evening and being able to let our pup run around and play. This trip we met some very nice locals that let our dog play with theirs on the beach. We are hoping to return in the future.
