About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Salt Therapy - Elevated house w/ beach access

Soft ocean sounds drift in from the shoreline, accompanied by the steady rhythm of waves that frame each moment of your stay. Gentle coastal light moves through the space, and the salt air hints at the beach just steps away. From balconies and patios to the poolside below, the property invites you to settle into the ease of North Vilano Beach.

Property layout and sleeping arrangements
The entire home encompasses two neighboring residences - Salt Therapy North and Salt Therapy South - reserved together for your stay. Across both spaces, you will find room for up to 12 guests with 6 bedrooms, 6 beds, and a total of 4 full bathrooms and 2 half bathrooms. Each residence spans multiple levels and offers its own private entrance, giving groups the option to gather or enjoy quiet time as they prefer.

Movement and comfort
Elevator access connects the levels within each home, creating a comfortable flow for guests. Air conditioning, ceiling fans, heating, and essential bedroom and laundry amenities support both short visits and extended stays. Natural gathering spaces in each residence make it easy for everyone to come together without feeling crowded.

Outdoor living and the pool
Outdoor spaces are designed for moments near the water. The private outdoor saltwater pool is available all year, set beside the patio with views that include the coastline and pool area. Although unheated, the pool is yours to enjoy surrounded by palms and fresh ocean air (no hot tub). Balconies and patios offer additional places to unwind, read, or simply listen to the waves.

Kitchen and dining
Each home includes a full kitchen and dining area, giving your group flexibility for shared meals. With space designed for preparing and enjoying food together, you can easily coordinate breakfasts before heading to the beach or laid-back dinners after a day exploring St. Augustine.

Entertainment and connectivity
WiFi, a dedicated workspace, and a 50 inch HDTV provide options for downtime or remote check-ins. Whether you are planning a relaxed movie night or need a quiet corner for a quick task, the setup supports both ease and convenience.

Arrival, parking, and pet-friendly features
Self check-in with a keypad offers a smooth arrival experience. Free driveway parking is available for up to three vehicles, with additional room for watercraft. This is a dog-friendly stay that welcomes dogs with pre-approval and additional fees.

Neighborhood

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There were some issues you need to be aware of:In the South unit, 3rd floor kitchen, the faucet came off. Also, the TV on that floor had a crack in the screen.In the South unit, on the 2nd floor, the ice machine did not work and had mildew around the door.In the North unit there was mildew on some pillows as well as mildew in the A/C vents.The North unit did not have an outside keybox as we were told. Overall, we were not unhappy, but there were some issues.

Just as Advertised!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My own family and my brother’s family stayed at this house for a week. It was perfect! The location was right across the street from beach access. The beach was not crowded and we loved the option to come back to the house and relax at the pool. The house was clean and the separate towers was ideal for two families! We would definitely stay here again!

Family Beach Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall a great family vacation. Easy beach access to family friendly beach. The pool was nice to have. Nice to have room to spread out. Layout was a little odd...would be nice to have a bigger den area in one of the houses, so that the whole family can sit around together. Needs some general maintenance....shower doors, door knobs, outdoor furniture, benches at big table. Some of the furniture needs to be repaired or replaced. Plenty of pots & pans, but lacking cups & glasses. Plenty of fridge space and a drink cooler to keep water & Gatorade beach ready! Garage area was very nice to have! Beds were too firm for us. Beautiful view!! We had a GREAT time.

2025 Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Really enjoyed our stay at Salt Therapy North & South.Had a family vacation with 12 guests, 6 adults and 6 kids ranging from 17-25 years old. Most of us we from Colorado and a few from Florida.Location and access to the beach was awesome.5 minute drive to Publix and other shops.3 minute drive or 15 min walk to great local restaurant Aunt Kate's, highly recommend.House layout took some getting used to, it's 2 nice size homes with tons of space, we put the kids in the north house and adults took the south house.South house was perfect to cooking on the 3rd floor kitchen and having family game night (for all 12 people) on the 2nd floor kitchen/wet bar area.Tons of beach chairs (at least 12) and umbrellas, 2 beach carts for hauling stuff to the beach.Pool was refreshing after a long day at the beach, and access gate to go straight to the pool was nice.Being able to park in both garages was great for those rainy afternoon shower storms.Great Location, Safe neighborhood, quiet even though we were on a main road.100% would recommend booking this property. We WILL be back!

Convenient to downtown St Augustine

Our stay was nice and quiet. The location was convenient to downtown St Augustine. Only problem we had was that someone (assuming the last guests) put dirty kitchen utensils, pan, and flatware in the drawers and cabinets like they were clean, which was not cool.

Buyer beware

We had MULTIPLE issues during our stay. Most remained unresolved during our stay. The management company was made aware of these issues. I have contacted them since returning because I don’t feel our stay was worth the 14K price (about 3K over normal because we went the week of July 4). I sent a very detailed email one week ago and I haven’t received ANY response. Crickets. Just know that you are paying for what you get-regardless of whether or not everything is in working order, clean, and properly stocked.

Convenient beach access with fun pool

We really enjoyed our time at this property. The building is new and had lots of space for our family. The location had very convenient beach access, and the beach wasn't very busy giving us plenty of space to spread out. The pool was a lot of fun, with a very shallow end for the kids. Publix is just down the road, and St. Augustine is just across the bridge. Elevators made it easy to bring up items to the third floor kitchen. We had only a few complaints. There were several maintenance issues (loose faucet, broken toilet roll holders, broken microwave, broken ice machine, loose oven panel, broken boat garage door, etc). The management company was very responsive, but not all were easily fixed. The house is a bit of a maze. Finally, it is beside a busy road (cars at 40mph or so), with louder traffic noise at night than I expected. This also made crossing the road a bit tricky, but we never had to wait long. Overall, our family had a lot of fun in this house.

Multi family fabulous

When it comes to multiple family members and their personalities this separate living situation worked perfect! However, cleanliness is not the property’s motto. The hot tub was cold and the main kitchen was on the 3rd floor causing us to have to bring everything down either to the pool or 2nd floor deck. No entry to the pool from the south side unless you left the house completely. The garage door along with a few other important things were “broken” which properly management failed to inform us. Location was great, with quick access across a busy street to the beach. Also 15 mins to anywhere in St. Augustine. Overall if the property management would get a new cleaning service, it’s a beautiful house. Will not rerent in the future.

Perfect for a large crowd.

We rented this VRBO because our daughter was getting married in downtown Saint Augustine. There were 14 of us who stayed at the property and it was absolutely phenomenal! We had so much space. We really really loved it. The location to the beach is perfect. It’s a quick ride to the grocery store and there are several great restaurants nearby. The place is very spacious and each guest will have their own privacy.. We would definitely rent this place again!!! The property managers are very helpful.
