A cozy getaway

We love this place! It's on a busy street, and not on the beach, but once you close the front gate, it's a quiet little compound with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Lots of lovely outdoor space.

Family Vacation Getaway was a Dream

Clean, well stocked house within walking distance to the beach! Great location away from the busyness of downtown but still close to whatever you need. We had a wonderful stay- enjoyed the beach, swimming with dolphins at Marineland (right down the street), visited two lighthouses and more. Would definitely stay here again!

Awesome beach vacation spot!

We absolutely loved our stay at Sea Horse Haven! Matanzas Inlet is absolutely beautiful and this rental was in the perfect convenient location to enjoy the beach each day. The house itself was so charming and had a vintage beach shack vibe that my family adored. Cozy and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. Hope to come back soon!

Awesome Hangout

Fun, casual beachside hangout spot. Plenty of spaces to kick back and chill inside and out with comfortable beds and furniture. Kitchen had everything we needed and a grill outside. Easy access and a short walk to the beach. Hosts were easy to reach and very helpful. Loved our stay!

Private Cozy Cottage

The fenced in property was perfect for our small dog and gave us great privacy. The house was decorated and supplied nicely and the hot tub was a great bonus and perfect compliment to the peacefully backyard. You did have to drive a bit for different food and entertainment.

Peaceful and Cozy

We loved staying at this property! Our kids loved exploring and the cozy swing bed and loft, we enjoyed the outdoor space, hot tub, and EVERYONE loved the outdoor shower!! Walking to the beach was pretty easy, however would recommend a wagon if you have a lot of gear. Parking was easy and there were so many places to hang out. Well equipped kitchen and bathroom. Would love to stay again!

Tranquility at its finest!

Sea Horse Haven is a Jem, our host Mr. O'Toole was the BEST! Easy check in and he was very attentive. The house was equipped with anything and everything you could possibly need. Having a washer and dryer made it handy to wash towels and wet clothing from the beach. The outdoor shower was one of the best features of our stay, (next to the beach) it made it so easy for all of us after playing on the beach. The walk to the beach was short and very doable we used a wagon and backpack chairs, morning walks on the beach is a must, so peaceful!There is an Airstream on the property that was available to rent nightly if we had gotten any extra family in, however we did great with the main house there is ample room on the property. The outside area was natural and comfortable with lots of sitting areas to chill. We all loved this location and will definitely return. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Sea Horse Haven

We had a great time at this property. There are so many different seating areas, a wonderful swing day bed and screened in front porch. We cooked our meals and used the gas grill too. The beach is just across the road and Matanzas Inlet is just a short walk over the bridge. There are lots of towels and top quality linens there. The yard is completely fenced in even for our small dogs. We really enjoyed our week staying at Sea Horse Haven.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

We were greeted by G. Taylor at the property and welcomed in and everything was perfect. Our week was amazing and the awesome beds made it even better. The cute lizards and tree frogs were fun to watch on the covered back porch. The hot tub was an added bonus as well. This property is an amazing gem and I can’t wait to get to enjoy it again real soon! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Hidden Gem

Our family loved our space in St. Augustine! It was perfect for our family. Even though it is close to the highway the walls/gates makes it feel like you're in your own little world and provides plenty of privacy. There are a few great beach access points. They went above and beyond in providing what one would need for their stay. My kids even enjoyed using the outside shower and it made it so easy for beach days! This spot is about 30 min from the st. Augustine historic district which was perfect for us. As we were more interested in a slower pace.

Holiday stay

We spent a week at at the sea horse haven and had a great time. We could not have asked for a nicer home, clean and very well equipped, we cooked quite a few meals in the kitchen! Home is like the prior reviews state, on a busy street, but we didn’t mind. Our pup spent time at the beach each day with us and loved it. We will definitely be back. Not too far from downtown, just far enough. The property owners were very friendly quick to respond, and very helpful, giving us suggestions on things to do such as local farmers markets and restaurants, even as far as suggestions on what we should order! If your looking for somewhere to stay near the beach that is pet friendly, this is hands down the best choice.

Very cool spot!

Sea Horse Haven is a very cool accommodation. It was a perfect layout for my wife and I to chill with our 2 Jack Russells. The house itself reminds more of the Florida Keys than the northeast part of the state. The house was clean, fresh and well appointed. The walled in grounds were much appreciated with regard to the dogs and the various gardens were well conceived. Lots of love and thought went into design of Sea Horse Haven both inside and out. The access to the magnificent beaches was a breeze and evenings in the hot tub was a great way to finish the day. Lastly, all of the restaurant recommendations were spot on. Didn't get a chance to hit them all but will work on the list when we return!
