Read our Reviews! We are the heart of Vilano Beach & steps away from the ocean

At Sunshine house, we have diligent about cleanliness , and strive to make this home ....feel like home , with everything you would need to be comfortable . We offer Active Military discount. Our beautiful home is located in the heart of Vilano Beach – featuring private beach access directly across (A1A is about 150 feet from your front door). The intra coastal water access public boat ramp "at the other end" of Boating Club Rd. St. Augustine's beaches stretch from Vilano Beach north of the city to Crescent Beach in the south. The Intra Coastal Waterway naturally divides the mainland from the barrier islands with miles of gorgeous coastline. Vilano Beach is a locals "best-kept secret" offering a wide variety of waterfront restaurants, several within walking distance from our spacious home. The Vilano Beach Fishing Pier, para-sailing and Sea Doo rentals and city several parks are also in close proximity to the house. You can charter a deep sea fishing boat or a sailboat from this area. Vehicles are permitted on the beach within designated areas. For our boaters, multiple public boat ramps are also nearby. Our unique home with its deep driveway is a perfect place for those who might trailer their boat from out of town. The Sunshine House, offered by the Addison's & Kenner's, is only a 1.5 minute walk to the beach (thru county maintained private beach access) and 8 min's from downtown Historic St Augustine and all the best kept secrets of Vilano Beach has to offer. Contact us for more rental information or see us on VRBO

We are 8 minutes from Historic Ole Town St Augustine, the nation’s oldest city. St. Augustine's celebrated its 450th Birthday in 2015! Visit Ripley’s Believe it or Not, Historical Museums, Flagler College, the famous Castillo DeSan Marco Fort, St. George Street and all of its shops and open air restaurants. The Alligator Farm, The Fountain of Youth, Potters Wax Museum, Ghost Tours, Romantic Horse Drawn Carriage Rides and San Sebastian Winery which features nightly music & lots of wine tasting. St. Augustine Beach Pier & the Farmers Market/Craft Show every Wednesday morning, and the St. Augustine Amphitheater hosts top named world famous music acts. Major grocery chain (Publix) and many other local conveniences, probably everything you could possibly need are minutes away.

Local public golf courses are just minutes away and the world famous World Golf Village just 20 minutes north. Orlando/Disney attractions are 1.5 hours south, famous Daytona Beach is 30 minutes south, featuring 3 major annual events, Biketoberfest, BikeWeek and the mega Daytona 500 races (approx 30 minutes away).
We are completely remodeled inside and out, our home is available for immediate rental. It is fully equipped with hi speed internet, 3 televisions, and tastefully furnished. Featuring 4 bedrooms / 2 are private master suites. The downstairs master bedroom has a covered porch. Upstairs master has an over-sized viewing balcony.

This home has beds for 8 but can easily sleep up to 10 people with the use of an Aero bed and large cot that we have available..
We’d love to host you. We live about 40 minutes away, and care deeply about offering the best vacation experience for you and your family. We are a family orientated vacation rental offering a wonderful home to enjoy just steps from the beach. This is not a "Party House", PLEASE respect the quiet hours of our neighbors.

A beautiful house at a great location

Our vacation practically began the moment we secured our reservation. The communication with the owner was effortless and friendly, setting a positive tone for our getaway. Upon arrival, we were delighted to check in a bit earlier than expected, and when we stepped inside the beautiful home, we were greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, from cozy furnishings to charming decor, making it feel like a true home away from home. We were pleasantly surprised to find flip-flops ready for our beach adventures and an umbrella for those unpredictable weather days. Our stay lasted a blissful three nights, filled with relaxation and joy, and we are already looking forward to returning to this wonderful escape in the future.

This is the 8th VRBO we have rented and it is probably the nicest one in terms of interior design, layout of the spaces, and the utensils and supplies/beach equipment provided. The host was very accommodating in allowing us to arrive a little earlier and staying a little later than advertised. The short distance to the beach means that it is a quick walk back to the house if you forget something. We highly recommend the house.

Perfect home for a fun beach getaway

This home has everything you need to have a fun, relaxing and enjoyable beach weekend. The accommodations were clean and comfortable, perfect for our group of six adults and three young children. The beach is just across the road and was lightly populated during our stay. There is much to do in nearby St. Augustine. We were very pleased with are stay here and highy recommend it.

Solid 5 stars *****

Our stay at this VRBO was absolutely fantastic! The house and property was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway for our family of 5: 2 adults and 3 teens. Plenty of space for everyone! We especially loved the cozy front patio, which was ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The location was perfect...steps from the beach and an easy 10-min drive to downtown St Augustine! Communication with the host Judy was smooth and pleasant; she was super responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend. Thank you very much!

Lovely home close to beach

My immediate family stayed at this home for two nights while meeting extended family in area for my mother (and fathers’s) celebration of life. The home had everything we needed including a high chair, kitchen items, and beach towels (though we didn’t need them since we packed our own). The long driveway was very helpful as we came in different cars and you cannot park on the street. We are considering returning next year to make this an annual event and I would definitely consider staying again. Lovely home and very easy to access beach access. With an infant grandson that was very helpful. Thank you for your graciousness.
