The Space:
Welcome to “Sandy Dunes”! We are located in the quiet neighborhood of South Ponte Vedra Beach, just 15 minutes north of historic St. Augustine. This beautiful, oceanfront home was lovingly remodeled in the fall of 2017. This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath beach house is perfect for mid-sized groups, as it can sleep up to 8. We do have two other vacation rentals on either side of this one, if you need to sleep more people!
When you walk into the main living area of the house on the 2nd floor, you will be greeted with vibrant colors, beachy chic design, and amazing views of the ocean. On the main floor, you will find the open living room and eat-in kitchen. Both are designed with friends and family in mind. Whether you are in the kitchen, preparing your favorite meal, or watching a movie in the living room, the open floor plan allows everyone to stay connected. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything a chef could desire, and features stainless appliances, granite counter-tops, and a huge pantry. Thanks to the large windows, the living room is flooded with natural light, and features a beautiful wood ceiling, and warm hardwood floors. Two sofas surround the TV and offer a great place to gather. The built-in book shelf is full of books and games for you to enjoy. There is a powder room on this level as well. Outside, you will find a large wrap-around deck, perfect for enjoying the ocean breeze or working on your tan!
The master bedrooms is it’s own little oasis. The lucky inhabitants will enjoy sleeping to the sounds of the waves caressing the sandy shore. The master features a comfy king bed, TV, closet space, and a huge master bathroom. The master bathroom has his and hers sinks, a beautiful walk-in shower and a spacious closet. There is a sliding door from the bedroom that leads you right out to the oceanfront deck!
Downstairs are three more bedrooms and another full bathroom. One bedroom is on the ocean side of the house, and has a queen bed. The 3rd bedroom has a full Murphy bed, which is very comfortable, while the 4th bedroom is perfect for the kids. This bedroom has two, large built-in bunk beds and a TV. The bathroom downstairs has a shower and tub combination. We provide all of the bath towels and wash cloths for each bathroom. A stack washer and dryer are available downstairs as well.
PLEASE NOTE: There is a tight spiral staircase that is used to get from the first floor to the second from inside the house. You can also use the outdoor stairs to go down to the first level.
From the back door on the first floor, you have access to the covered porch. Here you will find a gas grill (propane provided), outdoor privacy shower, and your own private walkway to the beach. We provide beach towels and beach chairs, so you don’t have to pack them! There is a 1-car garage, but it is very small so we use it for storage and not parking. There is ample parking in the driveway out front.
While we know you will love spending as much time as you can at the beach, there are plenty of other activities in the area. Historic St. Augustine (the nation’s oldest city) is just 15 minutes south of us. There, you will find countless shops, art galleries, restaurants, tours, and more. If you love to golf, you have come to the right place. We have dozens of quality courses in the area, including TPC Sawgrass, home to the famous Par 3 17th island hole! If you are here during football season, be sure to head into Jacksonville to catch our 2017 AFC South Champion Jacksonville Jaguars! Day trips to Orlando and Daytona are very easy from here as well. Whatever you are looking for, we are sure to have it. Feel free to ask us for any recommendations. We are locals and love sharing our favorite places with our guests. So, what are you waiting for?
