About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Shore Thing - Pool & Heated Spa, Gorgeous home, one short block from the beach!

Welcome to the Shore Thing Beach Retreat! This beautifully renovated home has 4 bedrooms. Upstairs you will find the kitchen, living room, and 2 bedrooms (both with a king bed). Our kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to cook a meal for your family. You can relax on the comfortable sofas after a long day of exploring downtown or the beach. Downstairs there is one bedroom with two queen beds (and an en suite bathroom) and one king bedroom.

This property is located one block off the beach, with a short walk to the dune walkover. It's also not far from the historic downtown area.

The history of St. Augustine is incomparable with almost any other on our coast. Founded in 1565 it is chock full of amazing places to visit, from the oldest house to the first schoolroom, to the impenetrable fort built by the Spanish. Lincolnville, just south of downtown St. Augustine takes you on a walking tour of the history of the civil rights movement noting where Martin Luther King stayed on numerous occasions. Needless to say, there’s also so many unique shops, and the restaurants are so varied and truly have an international flavor! There are things to do no matter the weather! You can take a free boat ride to Fort Matanzas and learn the history about the battles fought. Further south is Marineland where you can swim with dolphins!

The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill. There are always concerts at St. Augustine Amphitheatre and events at Francis Field as well. You will never run out of things to do here in St. Augustine. It is probably one of the most beautiful places in all of Florida, and for sure one of the most photographed! Come and see for yourself!

The cleaning company provides a limited amount of basic necessities (toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher/laundry soap, etc.) to get you started, you will want to bring some with you. Garbage and recycling must be taken out to the street Sunday night for Monday morning pickup.

We don't offer refunds or reschedule stays during hurricane season, even if there is an evacuation order. Please purchase trip insurance for your stay if this is a concern.

The location is perfect; just a short walk to the beach and quick drive into St. Augustine for great dining and ice cream. There were a few cool days on the beach so we appreciated soaking in the heated spa, even though we were a little surprised that it doesn't have a "bubbler". David and his team were awesome; they responded quickly to questions before and during the stay. All rental houses need constant maintenance, and his team corrected minor issues quickly, even on the weekend. We look forward to returning to Butler Beach!

This lovely open concept home accommodated our family of seven perfectly. It was nice to have three large ensuite bedrooms and another bedroom for kids. The host and owners were in easy contact to make sure we enjoyed our stay. Best of all, the wide and not too crowded beach was just a short walk away!

This property was absolutely fantastic! The owners and property managers were truly the best we have ever experienced. The house was the perfect size for our family and made hosting a beachside Thanksgiving effortless.The location could not be better. The beach was a quick, easy walk and even our 5 and 7 year olds went back and forth with no problem. We soaked in gorgeous sunsets, enjoyed peaceful sunrise dog walks, and made the most of every moment.The pool and spa were spotless, well maintained, and worked perfectly. Inside, the home was incredibly clean and stocked with nearly everything we needed to cook dinner each night.We highly recommend this home and truly cannot wait to return!
