Coastal Bliss

Coastal Bliss is a spacious Vilano Beach vacation home made for families, friends, and relaxed group getaways. With 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, 2,500 square feet, and room for up to 12 guests, this pet-friendly beach house gives you space to spread out without losing the easy, coastal feel that makes Vilano such a favorite St. Augustine base. It sits about 100 steps from the beach path in one direction, with the Intracoastal Waterway a short walk in the other, and its own private pool out back.

The House

Inside, the home is bright, comfortable, and professionally decorated across two levels. The main living space brings the kitchen, dining area, and sitting area together so everyone can stay connected, whether someone is making coffee, setting out snacks, watching TV, or planning the next beach run. It feels like a true vacation house, not just a place to sleep between outings.

The sleeping layout gives families and mixed groups helpful flexibility. Coastal Bliss has two king beds, two queen beds, two single beds, and a sofa bed. Every bedroom has a TV, which is one of those small comforts that becomes useful when different guests want different downtime. The 3.5 bathrooms include walk-in showers and a tub-shower combination, a practical setup for mornings, beach cleanups, and getting ready for dinner.

The full kitchen is ready for real meals, which matters when you are traveling with a group. Coastal Bliss includes a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, cookware, dishes and utensils, toaster, and coffee maker, with a large dining area for the whole group. Breakfast before the beach is easy, lunch can be simple, and dinner at home is a good option when nobody wants to gather everyone for another restaurant run.

Outside, the private pool is the centerpiece. It gives the home that full vacation rhythm: beach in the morning, pool in the afternoon, and a quiet evening outside after the day winds down. The fenced backyard, covered patio, outdoor seating, balcony, and deck space all add to the feeling that this house is built for time together. The pool can be heated as an optional add-on for an additional fee, arranged in advance. Coastal Bliss is also pet-friendly, so the dog is welcome for an additional pet fee, and the private outdoor space, full kitchen, and washer and dryer give pet-friendly travelers the room and convenience they often need.

St. Augustine

Downtown St. Augustine is close enough for an afternoon or evening trip without making the day feel overplanned. Guests can spend the morning at the beach, cool off in the pool, then head into town for dinner, shopping, museums, a trolley tour, or a walk through the Historic District. That is the real advantage of basing your stay here: you get the beach-house vacation and the old-city experience in one trip.

The Area

For travelers comparing St. Augustine beach areas, Vilano Beach is a smart choice. It is quieter and more residential than the busier St. Augustine Beach corridor, but it still keeps you close to restaurants, groceries, the pier area, and downtown. Our Vilano Beach neighborhood guide is the best place to get a feel for this part of the coast and why so many guests choose it as their St. Augustine home base.

The ocean side of Vilano is known for beach walks, surfing, fishing, shark tooth hunting, and long days on the sand. The Intracoastal side brings a calmer kind of water day, with boating, paddle boarding, fishing, and waterfront scenery nearby. Coastal Bliss puts you between both, which is exactly what makes this location work so well for guests who want more than one kind of beach trip. When you want an easy outing close to the house, the Vilano Fishing Pier is a simple place to fish, walk, or take in the view across the water toward St. Augustine, with groceries, restaurants, and waterfront access in the same area.

If your group needs more than one home, or you are simply weighing other Vilano options, the area has several First Choice Florida houses with the same easy access. Carpe Diem is a larger four bedroom home that sleeps up to 14, Ocean Sunrise is a five bedroom house that also sleeps 12, and CoCo's Beach Cottage is a comfortable three bedroom option for smaller groups.
