We strive to make sure your time at the house is relaxing and enjoyable and are always available during your stay if there are any questions or for any recommendations on what to do and see in the area. The house is located along a rare stretch of beach on one of the last untouched inlets on the east coast just south of Crescent Beach and is the home of Fort Matanzas, the Matanzas National Seashore - a beautiful National Park. It sits directly on Atlantic Ocean, but you can also see the Matanzas River, and the Intracoastal waterway. Since the house sits on this largely untouched area, the wildlife is amazing. Depending on the time of year Sea Turtles, Dolphins, and Manatees can be seen within the 25 miles of undeveloped state owned natural habitat. The pristine water is one of the most unpolluted water areas in the state of Florida which brings fisherman and birders from all over to the beautiful sanctuary areas making it a truly unique place to stay. If you like to cycle you are only a few miles from some of the best mountain biking trails and miles and miles of mostly shaded paved trails to explore. Just under 14 miles away is the charming city of St. Augustine that offers unique scenery and history that sets the city apart from any other in the country. This old city has a quaint feel with a big appeal where guests can stroll along the brick-lined streets and delight in the city's European flavor, with centuries-old buildings, horse-drawn carriages, hidden courtyards, and so much more. Saint Augustine has plenty of history to explore -- more than 450 years of it! St. Augustine is known for its excellent restaurants serving a variety of dishes reflecting the town's multicultural heritage. Add to that the city's world-class art galleries, boutiques and outlet shopping, theater and live music, and 42 miles of gorgeous beaches, and it's easy to see why it is such a popular place to make long lasting memories. The best way to get around is with your own car or in a rental with free parking included with your stay. Guests can also use rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft or call a taxi with cars available at all times of the day. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,292 square feet ## Similar properties ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111640000/111638300/111638224/ffb78484.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ocean Front in Crescent Beach Crescent Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-08&endDate=2026-02-09&selected=111638224&PinnedHotelID=111638224&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27670000/27666200/27666154/f8b55b1e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SeaWinds Dreams Premium Beachfront/Oceanfront Condo-w/Private Beach Access St Augustine Beach - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 136 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-08&endDate=2026-02-09&selected=27666154&PinnedHotelID=27666154&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33510000/33503200/33503174/b967e22e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Direct Oceanfront Artist Haven Absolute Beachfront Retreat | Artist Haven | 2BR St. Augustine - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.8 Exceptional 63 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-08&endDate=2026-02-09&selected=33503174&PinnedHotelID=33503174&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102730000/102725600/102725517/43e6cba4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanfront!

Fort Matanzas has a very long & interesting history, closely connected with the founding of St. Augustine by Pedro Menendez de Aviles. In 1565, Menendez murdered over 250 French Protestants including the famed Jean Ribault, on the land where the Fort is today. Due to the history of the site, the Spanish named both the fort and the inlet "Matanzas," which means "slaughters" in English. That name carries on to this day. #InStone](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6069633/1391238c-818e-4af1-9772-3f2d2d52683b.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Fort Matanzas National Monument 1 min drive \- 1.7 km - ![St. Augustine Beach showing landscape views, general coastal views and a beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6063024/39cd840b-b39a-41a7-bc56-6ce5a543f60b.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) St. Augustine Beach 13 min drive \- 16.6 km - Matanzas Inlet 3 min walk \- 0.3 km - Crescent Beach 1 min drive \- 1.7 km ### Getting around - St. Augustine, FL (UST-Northeast Florida Regional) 42 min drive ### Restaurants - Circle K 3 min walk - Circle K 7 min drive - Sandbar Pub 7 min drive - Back 40 A1A 8 min drive - The Commander’s Shellfish Camp 5 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Penthouse Artist Haven Ocean front Penthouse pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### Where is Penthouse Artist Haven Ocean front Penthouse located? ## Have a question?
