3BR Coastal Retreat near Downtown & Beach · by Sunshine Escapes St. Augustine

Welcome to La Costa, a modern coastal home from Sunshine Escapes St. Augustine — a place designed to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy time together. Light-filled, thoughtfully curated, and surrounded by tropical outdoor space, this is a home that feels calm the moment you arrive.

Just minutes from Historic Downtown St. Augustine and a short drive to the beach, La Costa offers the perfect balance of exploration and retreat.



AT A GLANCE
• 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, comfortable up to 8 guests
• Modern architecture with soaring two-story ceilings
• Sun-filled kitchen and dining space with tall windows
• Tropical backyard designed for gathering and unwinding
• Private driveway with ample parking



THE FEELING
La Costa is bright, open, and intentionally peaceful. Clean lines, natural light, and airy coastal design create a sense of ease throughout the home. The two-story ceiling and wraparound windows in the kitchen and dining area fill the space with sunlight from morning through evening — a detail guests consistently fall in love with.

This is a home where mornings feel unhurried and evenings invite you to linger.



SLEEPING & BATHROOM LAYOUT

Main floor
• King bedroom with dedicated workspace and closet
• Direct access to a full bathroom with walk-in shower
• Bathroom is shared with the living area

Upstairs
• King bedroom with dedicated workspace and closet
• Twin bedroom with dedicated workspace and closet
• One full bathroom in the hallway shared by both bedrooms

The layout works beautifully for families, couples traveling together, or guests who appreciate privacy with shared spaces that still feel relaxed.



SPACES TO GATHER, REST, AND RESET
• Living room with comfortable seating and 65-inch TV
• Upstairs king bedroom with 55-inch TV
• Music station with record player and curated vinyl
• Quiet yoga or meditation nook tucked beneath the stairs
• Upstairs reading nook overlooking palm trees and the backyard

Every space is designed to feel intentional, calm, and welcoming.



KITCHEN & COFFEE MOMENTS
The kitchen is fully stocked, high quality, and thoughtfully organized so everything feels easy from day one.

Your coffee station includes:
• Keurig Duo for drip or K-cups
• French press
• Gooseneck kettle
• Starbucks coffee + assorted tea provided

Perfect for slow mornings before heading out — or choosing not to leave at all.



OUTDOOR LIVING, SUNSHINE ESCAPES STYLE
The private backyard is where La Costa truly shines.

• Fire pit with four chairs for evening conversations
• Swinging egg chair and hammock for relaxed afternoons
• Palm trees and tropical landscaping
• Outdoor games including corn toss

It’s a space made for connection, laughter, and quiet moments under the stars.



LOCATION
• 4–6 minutes to Historic Downtown St. Augustine
• 12–15 minutes to the beach
• Easy, stress-free parking on site

Come and go with ease, without the congestion of downtown living.



A FEW IMPORTANT NOTES, SHARED WITH CARE
To keep the home comfortable for all guests, pets are not permitted due to severe owner allergies. This allows us to maintain a clean, welcoming environment for everyone.

The home is intended for relaxed stays rather than parties or events. The primary booking guest must be 21 or older.

Exterior cameras monitor entry points only for safety and insurance purposes. There are no cameras in private areas, and we kindly ask that they not be touched or tampered with.



ABOUT SUNSHINE ESCAPES ST. AUGUSTINE
La Costa is part of the Sunshine Escapes St. Augustine collection — homes known for thoughtful design, professional cleaning, and a hosting style that prioritizes comfort, clarity, and genuine care. We believe great stays feel effortless, not over-managed.



If you’re looking for a modern, light-filled home with a peaceful energy, tropical outdoor space, and a location that lets you experience St. Augustine at your own pace, La Costa is ready to welcome you.

From the moment we walked in, we were all highly impressed with this lovely home! It truly had every detail down to perfection. If you're looking for an interior to please on every level, plus comfortable for 3 generations of family, and extra clean, this is exactly what you're looking for, trust me. You'll love staying here! We all did. Thank you to our gracious hosts, and for thinking of all the little details that truly made our stay special.

Amazing home!

We loved the house! Everything was beautifully curated! We would have loved for the yard to have been mowed because our kids really wanted to use the backyard. Overall, an incredible house with plenty to do all around, and SO close to the beach! Will absolutely stay again.

Incredibly thoughtful. Everything you could ask for.

I’ve stayed at several 5 star rentals but none so thought through. Amazing that nothing you could ask for was omitted. There was even an evacuation map of the house posted! I highly recommend this home. The beds were very comfortable, the house light filled yet private. We enjoyed the Starbucks keurig coffee and appreciated the recommendations of what to do and where to eat. I give this home 5.5 stars.

This is an amazing property!! The owners thought of everything! Wish we could have stayed more nights, but we were in St Augustine for only two days. Immaculate and comfortable for all 6 of us. We will definitely stay again if the opportunity arises!! Thank you Jon and Lola!
