Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.
Stellar location...easily park and walk to historic sites! Spacious and modern inside but a classic Southern home on the outside. Lots of room to grill out or lounge around the heated saline pool. Beautiful views of the famed Mission from the upper/lower porches. And you'll appreciate how well stocked this home is too...if we don't provide it you probably don't need it!

If you need another rental we have a 4 bedroom w/pool right next door. It's called Walk to Everything plus pool and Cottage.

The space
This beautiful home is in a wonderful old and desirable neighborhood walking distance to Historic sites, tasty restaurants and shopping!

Main Floor:

Visiting is easy in this well lit open concept Living Room, Dining Room and Kitchen. You'll enjoy the 60 inch wall hung TV, Dining area with seating for 6-8 and well equipped modern Kitchen with stainless steel appliances and island seating for another 3. Half bath, laundry and pantry are also on the Main floor.

Main floor Primary Bedroom:

The first floor Primary Bedroom with large en-suite bathroom and vaulted ceilings has a King bed, ceiling fan, dresser and wall hung TV. The spacious walk in shower with glass doors has built in seating.

Second Floor:

Upstairs you’ll find 3 more bedrooms...2 Queen rooms and a Twin room all with wall hung televisions, ceiling fans and comfy memory foam bedding.

The roomy full bath upstairs has a tub/shower combo with glass shower doors and beautiful tile floors.

The upper porch has wonderful views of the Mission grounds and partial water views of the Matanzas Bay.

Outside:

The heated saline pool is the perfect place to unwind after a day of sightseeing or the Beach! Fire up the gas grill, rinse off in the outdoor shower (hot and cold). Enjoy drinks and snacks at the patio dining table for 6 or catch some rays in one of the many lounge chairs. The yard is fully fenced (6 foot privacy) with a grassy area so big hit with kids and pets.

Other things to note
This home is for LODGING ONLY. We are in a working neighborhood so quiet time is 10pm to 8am and strictly enforced (see below). NOT a party house. We love our neighbors and respect that this is their neighborhood too!

If you are part of a wedding party we would love to have you but please know that we cannot have persons over to do hair, makeup, photography, etc. The City strictly prohibits any gatherings so also no reception dinners, etc. Sorry!

No events, gatherings, visitors, pets (unless approved by owner), smoking, parties, disruptions or other disregard of lease terms can occur or terms of rental are void and immediate eviction will be enforced. Persons other than those specified in the booking are not allowed in/on the property unless approved by us in advance. If you would like to have a visitor please coordinate with us in advance. Please let us know who, when and for how long you expect your guest. Parking will also need to be coordinated as we have limited space.
This home is in a working neighborhood and guests should be courteous and quiet after 10pm.

The pool is heated to 82, however, please take notice that the pool heater will turn itself off if the air temps are 55 or below. Also it turns off automatically when the pump cycles off each night. This means it may take some time to catch up to our 82 degree setting the next day and/or it may not make it to 82 based on air temp. During chillier weather plan to swim later in the day. We do not charge you for heating the pool and there are NO refunds given for pool being less than 82.

We have a pet fee (non refundable) of $100 per stay. The pet fee for 2 dogs is $150 per stay. Please ask about bringing more than 2 dogs. We will put couch covers on in advance and provide sheets for covering beds, etc.

Video are routinely deleted by the system and would only be shared with law enforcement or Airbnb as needed. The front and rear driveways plus a small portion of the pool are visible on camera.

Neighborhood highlights

Desirable and pretty neighborhood tucked along the Matanzas Bay between the Mission and the Fort (Castillo de San Marcos). Close to the action but residential enough that you can get away from it all.
