Steps to Beach ~ HEATED POOL ~ 2 King Beds!

You're going to enjoy your stay at Coco's Beach Cottage! This charming beach home features a private swimming pool and much more. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath house is just steps away from the beautiful Vilano Beach, with the Intracoastal Waterway only a short walk away.

The house spans two levels and accommodates up to eight guests. It includes two king beds, one queen bed, and a sleeper sofa. The primary bathroom has a walk-in shower and a relaxing bathtub, while the guest bathroom features a tub-shower combination. Every bedroom is equipped with a TV for your entertainment! The fully equipped kitchen includes a dining area and a breakfast bar, and complimentary wireless internet is available during your stay.

Coco's Beach Cottage is pet-friendly and designed to make you feel at home during your vacation. Amenities include bed and bath linens, hardwood floors, lovely decor, a large flat-panel HDTV, Wi-Fi, a washer and dryer, a dishwasher, and more.

Just 200 steps from the beach via an easy-access path on one side, and only a five-minute walk to the Intracoastal Waterway on the other, this area of Vilano/North Beach is known for surfing, paddleboarding, fishing, shark tooth hunting, and more. You can walk, bike, or drive to many great restaurants just minutes away. Our comfortable home is a 10-minute drive from the lively and historic town of St. Augustine! The Vilano Beach pier is just a three-minute drive (or a 40-minute walk along the beach), where you’ll find a Publix grocery store and a mini outdoor mall. Nearby, you’ll also discover a local post office, a bait and gear store, a boat rental facility, a gas dock, a local pub, and several restaurants along the Intracoastal. You can reach the PGA Tour’s TPC Sawgrass in just 20 minutes, and it’s a two-hour drive to Walt Disney World.

Vilano Beach, located on Veterans Island in St. Augustine, is closer to the historic district than any other beach in the city—only 10 minutes from historical sites and the antique district. Spend your mornings relaxing on the beach and your afternoons exploring St. George Street in downtown St. Augustine.

For an additional $200/week or less, the pool may be heated to a maximum of 84 degrees. The pool heater must be added to your reservation 48 hours before arrival. Please note that we do not offer this service from Memorial Day through September.

Great stay.
Our family had a great stay over spring break. Location is great with short walk to beach. Pool was a hit with our grandkids. A few small improvements would make it even better - more silverwear, some new nonstick pans and a smart TV in the living room.

Awesome house!
We had a great experience at Cocos beach house! We love every day we stayed there! There was some issues with the TV cable and wifi but got fixed quick! Thanks to the manager that kept in contact to see that everything was going our way! Our only regret was not staying more days.. we will definitely come back and spend more time at this beach home!

Adorable Beach Cottage!!!
We had a wonderful time at Coco's Beach Cottage! This spacious well kept home was perfect for our family. The two minute walk and easy access to the beach made for a great beach vacation. The family loved the private pool. We found a bunch of nearby restaurants. Kate's, the Reef and Beaches were our favorites! A nice supermarket was minutes down the road and Historic St Augustine was just across the bridge. We will be back!!!

Perfect stay
We stayed in the house over Christmas and it was really perfect. It was everything that the advertisement described. We will definitely try and go back again! The house was clean and there was more than enough room for 4 adults and two teens. Loved the location. The only negative (which I had read in previous reviews) is that the road you have to cross to get to the beach is very busy, I was surprised by the speed limit being 55 miles. But other than that it was a fabulous stay!

CoCo Beach Rental
I stayed here with a group of friends looking for a relaxing week on the beach and that was exactly what we got! A nice, quiet beach was a short, easy walk away. The house itself was nicely furnished and clean. It more than comfortably slept eight people. It is extremely close to Publix which was convenient seeing as the house had a nice full kitchen and we were able to do some cooking. It was also close to St. Augustine which had lots to do for those not looking to go to the beach every day. All in all it is a house I would highly recommend!.

Family Vacation 2023
The only thing we didn’t realize before booking was that all three bedrooms are upstairs. It wasn’t a big deal, we were just thinking one bedroom was downstairs. Our grandchildren enjoyed the pool the most! This was the first time that me, my kids, and grandkids all stayed in the same house together, and it was so much fun! It was also the first time staying on Vilano Beach instead of St. Augustine Beach and we enjoyed it so much we’re thinking about going back next year! Thank you for allowing us to rent CoCo’s Beach Cottage for the week!

VRBO
I really didn’t see anything extra for the ‘VRBO experience’ There was no welcome basket or notebook with information about the tv remotes and/or restaurants and activities. The 50 steps to beach was a little bit deceptive. We were disappointed the pool was full of leaves.

Pros and cons
Check in process was easy, the layout of the home is good for the privacy upstairs and kitchen downstairs. We visited over Spring Break and the space needed major cleaning. Grass needed mowed, pool was Sandy and had stuff in it, tons of trash out front, and pillows were unusable. The pool is tiny w no hangout space out back. The place including the windows needs a good pressure wash. We were happy to snag a place last minute at the beach but definitely overpaid for this. Someone needs to take a week off renting it and get it back in rental shape for that kind of money.

This is great location to beach and historic St. Augustine and for dogs! The house wasn’t ready at 3 when we got there. Cleaning ssid she had couple things more to do then one of our beds are sandy inside sheets and another bedroom had a sports bra left behind. The outside pool is very small and patio area isn’t much to be desired. We’ve stayed in Florida every yr for the past 20 yrs and never had a patio that no one really wanted to hang at because there really isn’t much there. For the price I wouldn’t go back to this particular house.

Great place to stay
This was the perfect location to stay as we played golf and went to The Players tournament. Very clean, beautiful, great cul-de-sac neighborhood, steps to the beach and plenty of restaurants to choose nearby. We actually ate at Caps on the Water 3 nights in a row because it was THAT good and you could walk there in 20 minutes or take the 3 minute drive. Close to downtown St. Augustine and the TPC Sawgrass. The T.V. didn't work in the upstairs room that faced the cul-de-sac, but it didn't really matter. Could use red ant treatment around the property as there were areas you needed to watch out for. We loved it and would stay again. Keep in mind that all the bedrooms are upstairs. Oh... we thought the beds were super comfortable!! The couch downstairs is a hide-a-bed but if you can't do stairs, this might not be the place for you. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beach house minus the beach accessories
This beach house had no beach towels, no beach umbrella or tent, one broken beach chair and 3 ancient, disgusting chairs. Ants covered the walkway and lawn(don't know if these were fire ants or not). House can sleep 10, we were 6, And had to wash towels on a daily basis just for bathing. They certainly was not enough to use as beach towels. There was no plastic glassware to use by the pool Tha extra sheets were scatchy and as hard as cardboard. Overall we had a decent time but would have had a much better experience if it had the proper amenities you'd expect a beach house to have.

Great Summer House!
We are a family of five and we found that Coco's Beach Cottage fit our need perfectly. The photos perfectly described the home and we found the neighborhood street to be quiet and family friendly. I will note that the beach is across A1A, a two lane street. It is a short walk, but we were a bit surprised about having our young ones zoom across a 55mph zoned street. It is perfectly located, super easy to get back and forth from St. Augustine, which is where we spent most of our time. There are a few restaurants right down the street as well, which was super nice!! Aunt Kates & Beaches are both laid back, beachy and faimly friendly. The Reef is the next level up, with more elegant food and less impressive to the children. We found that the extremely private beach was great for our family. This is NOT you condo infested beach!! There were no families around us, so we pretty much had the beach to ourselves pretty much! Nice!! All in all, it was a success!

Nice property- pool needed to be cleaned
First I'd like to thank the rental company and housekeeping for calling when the property was ready a bit earlier than the check in time. We had requested that as our flights arrived into Jacksonville early that morning and we didn't have a car so no place to store our luggage. Unfortunately since we had to stop at the rental office first, that added additional time to our commute and we weren't able to take advantage. I would reccommend leaving the code at the house to save this additional step and time. One other reccomendation would be to have pool cleaning tools. The pool was full of leaves and the filter was full as well, so we had to clean the filter and the pool by hand. A voicemail to the rental office on Sunday (they were closed) was not returned. They did however respond to a plumbing issue very quickly which did not impact anything on our stay. Clean property, but pool was essentially unusable.

Very clean, very nice, very private pool, great location!
We really enjoyed our stay. We came the week after Hurricane Irma, and weren't sure what to expect, but honestly had no problems. The management company did a great job - they were responsive to all inquiries and fast on providing services when needed. The kitchen had great appliances- rare in a weekly rental. They had a couple of very comfortable beds, which is also rare. The pool is fenced on all sides, and very private. The location is literally just 2 houses and a street-crossing away from the beach. There was no access without climbing a steep Sandy hill, because Irma blew away all the stairs, but we managed fine. With stairs there, it's honestly very beach convenient, but you don't have to pay the "on beach" price and you get a pool. I feel like the owners did a good job of appointing the home for a comfortable stay, with TVs in every bedroom, a nice cable package (all the expanded basic, no premium channels). There is enough equipment in the kitchen to get by, although there are so many dining options, we didn't bother much. The washer and dryer worked well. We honestly had no complaints. If I had to complain about something, I would say the couch was uncomfortable. It's a pull out, though, and leather is a good choice for a beach home because sand and wet clothes happen. I would not hesitate to rent again. I wouldn't call our family high maintenance, but from an average person's standard, it was great. We have rented houses all over Georgia and Florida and this one was the best. Best location, best amenities, best little pool, best management.

Needs maintenance and a good scrub
Great location, the house has a great set up. Lovely neighborhood. The property needs to be cleaned. I understand people don’t care for other people’s homes - renting out your property is stressful. We have rentals in Ohio, so we noticed things. I would change cleaning companies. The dust is thick all over headboards and trim. We picked up trash in the backyard - the backyard was covered in weeds. The dining room rug smelled to strongly of animal urine. (I know pets are allowed and that’s awesome and we appreciate it. I can’t imagine bringing an animal to someone’s property, knowing your pet isn’t trained. People who do this are obviously the problem. The pots and pans are beat. The refrigerator had food stuck to the front of it. The shower curtain upstairs is covered in mold at the bottom. This house just needs maintenance. I wanted to give it a giant hug. We felt forced to travel during the covid-19 pandemic. The travel cancellation policy would not cover cancellation. Even though VRBO said the properties they represent were giving refunds or letting people reschedule, that wasn’t the case. That added a lot of stress to our trip. We had two kids with us and a 68 year old leukemia survivor. So, we were worried the whole time - then questioned the cleanliness of the property, it was very stressful. Obviously no attractions were open. So, we sat in the house for 7 days. Thank God for good weather. The pool was lovely. Cleaning it out everyday was fun. The trees above it were dropping seedlings nonstop, so we realized we never want to own a pool, lol. But it was nice. Thank you. Wish we could have rescheduled, but thanks. (If the maintenance company wants them, I have lots of pictures).

Perfect location
The location is ideal; super short walk to the beach. The surrounding neighborhood is great for walking/biking. Publix is very close, maybe a mile away. The Reef restaurant is also nearby and the food is excellent! Vilano Beach is the perfect distance from Saint Augustine. I highly recommend this stay!
