My new home away from home! I love being able to walk right out the back door and onto the beach. And almost just as important for me was being able to bring my dog and having the freedom to walk the beach without the public crowds. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Does not disappoint.

Great Beach stay!
This was a great house! Love the environmental friendly geothermal air conditioning system and prefer to keep our Florida beaches free from chemicals. But Just a note if you happen to have a ‘pregnant’ or ‘sensitive to smells’ person in your party… sitting on the deck you may experience a bit of a sulfur smell when air is running.

A Perfect Week
What a wonderful week at this property! The beach was incredible and it felt so private. We loved the shady area under the porch: it was the perfect spot to stay out of the sun and still enjoy the ocean. The house has great views from almost every room and we really appreciated the extra towels. Hope to return next year!

Sandy Feet Retreat in South Ponte Vedra Beach
This was the second time our family spent a full week in this oasis in Paradise and we hope to spend many more family vacations there. The four bedroom, three bedroom house, smack dab on the beach, provided more than enough room for our family of eight with, a beautiful deck, facing, the beach, a large kitchen with every utensil imaginable and largefamily room, big TVs, all kinds of ocean toys, such as surfboards, boogie boards, and play things galore. The host, Colleen, was super cooperative and helpful, and made certain that everything met our expectations. From 1 to 10, we give this property a 12.

Enjoyable 2nd Stay
This was the second time we had stayed at this wonderful beachfront home. There is plenty of room to sprawl out on the main floor and a large deck to enjoy meals on or just hang out. The best part is the ocean is only steps away! There are plenty of beach chairs and beach towels and even some boogie boards! We had no troubles checking in or out and everything was a breeze during our stay. I would highly recommend this lovely little beach retreat!

Our small family spent a wonderful Thanksgiving in Sandy Feet. Proximity to beach was an added plus. Plenty of towels and chairs were on hand. Kitchen was well equipped. The only thing I would add to house is a handbar inside the master tub/shower for safety.

Beach Vacation
Property is clean and cozy beachfront cottage with great views. Actual property is more roomy than pictured and easily accomodated three large adults. Kitchen is on the smaller side, but didn't impact meal prep and there is extra counter space on the dining side. Beach was secluded and surf fishing was fantastic. Caught multiple varieties of fish daily. Also saw large dolphin pods swimmimg by daily. Enjoyed the stay and would stay again.

Pictures and description are deceiving
This house is just ok. We stayed here with 5 adults and 2 children and it was pretty cramped. The shared spaces are very small, definitely not large enough for 8 adults and 3 kids as the listing mentions. The kitchen is tiny with only an apartment sized dishwasher, it made it very hard to cook and clean up the kitchen for a large group. The house is very old and sound travels. You can hear people in the common areas and the deck from every room in the house, making it hard to sleep if other people were up and about. The AC barely worked in the basement rooms and it was very warm down there. The bathrooms are dated and some of the towels were bloody and had holes in them. One of the bathroom had several dead bug carcasses on the floor. The floors have been replaced with vinyl but the subfloor was missing in some spots making it uneven to walk on. It kind of felt like you might fall in. The property is right on the water with a big deck, which is nice. However, on the deck there is a rancid smell, I think from the septic system, making it hard to sit and enjoy the view. The house is very dark and a lot of the lights don’t really work or are finicky. If you rent this house, just be aware the updates are surface level and this house really is just a small rustic beach cottage.

Perfect!
The location and home were just perfect for our vacation. Being just a few steps from the ocean with little ones allowed us to walk out to ocean/beach and back to the house as needed. Low tide leaves a spacious sandy area to play in. The deck and lower area allowed us to always have shade somewhere. Appreciated sand toys and beach chairs, too! Thank you, Colleen!

Sandy Feet and Sunrises!
We had a wonderful week at Sandy Feet! The location is everything we wanted... steps from a beautiful, uncrowded beach and not too far of a drive to anything else we wanted to get into. We arrived at 3pm, after our 12 hr trip, to find the cleaners were still there. We waited around for about 30-40 min before we could get in the house. The ladies were very nice and they did a good job, but the wait was a bit disappointing (and HOT). The keycode at the door didn't work so we had to use the garage, but that really wasn't a big deal. We loved the views from all the rooms and the beds were very comfortable! The downstairs layout is odd and lacks desired privacy. The kitchen is quite small, but adequate. The dishwasher is half-sized - we ran a lot little loads! :) The provided beach towels, beach chair, and umbrellas were very nice. The decks are amazing! Overall we had a glorious week!! We were there for the beach!

Slice of Paradise
Wonderful location right on an almost private beach. House very clean at arrival and check in/put process very easy. Downstairs layout a little quirky, but not a huge deal given the house location. An outside shower would be a nice addition to the house in the future To cut down on shells in the bathrooms. Overall had a great week.

This was our 3rd vacation at sandy feet retreat. My family stayed 2 weeks and was awesome. Property was extremely clean and pictured acutely on vrbo listing. Tv in living room had a cracked screen and Collen (owner) had a new tv delivered in 2 days. If you want to be directly on the beach this is the house for you.

Clean house in a quiet area
The house was everything that the listing says. It was clean and well stocked. Communication was great. The beach was pretty private. We even found shark teeth on the beach right outside the house! A few things I wish I would have known beforehand.... The room with the queen bed on the bottom floor isn't actually a room...well it kind of is. There is a curtain that seperates it from the hallway, stairs, and laundry area. Then the bunk room connects to that room with a door. Then there is a bathroom connected to the bunkbed room with a door. This made it kind of awkward for sleeping with extended family all together, but we made it work. Another thing to consider is that the door to the garage doesn't have a lock, but there is a garage door. So we weren't worried about people walking in since they would have to have a garage door opener, but it made it hard with a 2 year old because we didn't have a door on the bedroom, she could just walk out and we wouldn't hear it- then she could open the door to get into the garage where there are things I'm nervous about her getting into. Again, these aren't major things, just things I wish I would have known to better prepare (we would have brought a baby gate with us). Last thing is that there isn't a lot of room in the livingroom and diningroom. There is seating for 6 in both. So the whole family couldn't eat at 1 time unless people sat in the livingroom. Overall it was wonderful! I would absolutely stay again, just more prepared.
