If you want the beach right outside your door, this is the list. First Choice Florida manages 25 oceanfront rentals in St. Augustine, from Vilano Beach in the north, down through St. Augustine Beach and Crescent Beach, to the quiet end at Summer Haven. Every one is booked direct with the local team that manages the property. No booking fees, no middleman, and a real phone number that someone answers.
What we mean by oceanfront. We call a rental oceanfront only when the unit itself is on the beach, with the water right there. A home in an oceanfront building or community that is set back from the sand, or has the dunes in the way, is not on this list, even if the neighbors are. Those homes are on our beach rentals page, with the rest of the places that are a short walk to the water. We would rather you know exactly what you are booking.
Oceanfront homes book first. Summer weekends, spring break and the weeks around the Nights of Lights season go early, so if your dates are fixed it is worth checking availability now rather than in a few weeks.

Choose Your Stretch of Coast
Each beach has its own character. Summer Haven is the far south end, where it is mostly you and the water – 7 oceanfront rentals here. Crescent Beach is quiet, with wide sand and fewer crowds: 6 oceanfront. St. Augustine Beach has the pier and the widest choice of restaurants within reach: 7 oceanfront. Vilano Beach is residential and a short drive over the bridge from the historic district: 4 oceanfront. Planning the rest of your trip? Our local guide covers the best beaches in St. Augustine.

Booking direct matters most on an oceanfront rental. The same home listed on a large travel site carries a service fee on top of the nightly rate, and the people answering your questions there have never seen the property. Here you are booking with the company that manages the home, cleans it, and sends someone out when the air conditioning needs attention. First Choice Florida has done that in St. Augustine since 1998. Call 904-429-7373 if you would rather talk it through.
