The Pink House....a Modern Pool House and Tropical Paradise

The PINK HOUSE is a tropical pool home located in the desirable Davis Shores neighborhood. This rental is for the entire home with private pool. A short 5-minute walk over the Bridge of Lions, and you are in the heart of historic downtown St Augustine.
This home has been upgraded and appointed with brand new modern furnishings with every detail considered for a luxury vacation lifestyle in mind. The pool is heated to 80 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter months.
.
PRIME LOCATION
We like to say it’s the 10 Minute house. The Pink House is conveniently located to many restaurants, shopping, and attractions all within a 10-minute walk, bike ride, or drive. These popular and historic attractions are all close by.

The St Augustine Lighthouse and Maritime Museum
The Castillo de San Marcos Fort
The Lightner Museum
The Fountain of Youth and Archaeological Park
The Old Jail
The Alligator Farm
Anastasia State Park
St Augustine Beach and Pier Park

FLOOR PLAN
The Pink House is cozy and has an efficient and open floor plan. It lives larger than its actual square footage.
It’s a two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with ample space for king beds and dressers. The master bedroom has a shower. Included in the master bedroom is a Smart TV with complimentary Comcast Xfinity programming with HBO. The guest bedroom has a tub/shower combination and opens out to the pool and luscious backyard and outdoor dining area. The home has Comcast high-speed Internet(up to 1200 mbps downloads) with Wi-Fi throughout. A/C and heat are within all bedrooms and living/dining areas.

ENTERTAINING at its best!
KITCHEN
The upgraded kitchen is well appointed with all the dishes, utensils, pots, and pans, and serving dishes you need to entertain guests. The home has new appliances, a farmhouse sink, ample and modern cabinetry, quartz countertops, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee maker, and the washer and dryer are close by in the garage. Located outside the kitchen door is a new gas grill with cooking utensils. Outdoor, unbreakable dishes and glasses are also included in the pool area.

LIVING ROOM
The living room is furnished with two couches and additional seating, original hardwood floors, and has views looking out towards the front yard and the tropical pool area. A large Smart TV is central and Infinity programming and HBO are included. The pool area can be accessed from the living room and pool towels are supplied.

OUTDOORS and PARKING
One of the best features of the home is the luscious, mature landscaping of the pool area. This private oasis has a variety of native greenery, a hammock, multiple lounge areas, and large umbrella. The home is nestled beneath a canopy of stately oak trees, palms, elephant ears, and other tropical plants. The large heated(in winter months), kidney-shaped pool is relaxing and includes pool floats. An outdoor dining area is set up under a beautiful pergola for a candlelight dinner. Right outside of the living room, near the pool, is a lounge area, the perfect place to nap or read a book out of the sun.
There are four parking spaces in the front driveway and one space in the garage.

Security cameras are on the front of home for extra security.

The PINK HOUSE has passed a thorough safety inspection required by the City of St. Augustine. Included as required are smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguisher, exit floor plans, and emergency lighting for power outages.

This property is ideal for two couples or a "friends get-a-way" for four. We ask that guests be conscientious of playing loud music and rowdy behavior, as this neighborhood is quiet and we want to respect our neighbors. If you are looking for a rowdy, stay-up-late-and-party vacation, this is not the ideal spot for you. However, if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway in a beautiful space, you will love this property!

Beautiful, well-located home in a quiet neighborhood in St. Augustine just across the Bridge of Lions less and than a mile from the Old town. A new grill and a FULLY-equipped kitchen made cooking easy when we weren't at one of the many fabulous local restaurants. The picturesque back yard with heated pool made staying at home much too attractive however the lure of the nearby beaches tempted us often. The owners, Darlene and Hal, are spectacular. They are accommodating, friendly, available at all hours and simply nice people. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in their magnificent Pink House.

A pleasant relaxing getaway with many amenities and activities nearby! We were able to walk to almost anywhere that we wished to visit and were able to relax in the back yard by the pool for days that we wished to stay in. This place has everything we needed to feel at home but luxurious enough to feel spoiled as well. We loved our stay!

My first time to St. Augustine and I found this place to be the perfect location to all the things we wanted to do and see. Even better the house was adorable and relaxing. Sally made sure we were well taken care of and was even great at recommending places to eat and go. Overall great experience and happy we choose to stay at The Pink House.

This is our second year of staying at the Pink House during our vacation to St. Augustine. The home is in a nice area and is an easy walk to downtown. The backyard is a vacation of it's own. The house has all the essentials needed. Darlene... the manager... was quick to respond to any texts sent to her. The home is spotless and very comfortable.

All it took was one look at the photo of the backyard/pool area and my wife shouted, "Book it". That area lived up to expectation. Very relaxing, comfortable, and beautiful. Sally is extremely attentive and a wonderful hostess. Highly recommend The Pink House.

The house is in a great location, super close to everything and the neighborhood is wonderful! The house was very clean. We actually stayed while a storm hit and the host was very attentive about making sure we felt safe and that the property was cleaned up after the storm. The hosts are wonderful and were amazing with communication. We will be coming back! Perfect house for a relaxing couples getaway.

This home is clean, comfortable & tastefully decorated. It’s located across the bridge from the heart of the city but super close. We loved the backyard oasis and enjoyed the pool after daily tours. Large pool towels were provided. We were greeted with a generous basket of goodies which we enjoyed. I don’t think there was anything we needed that wasn’t there for our use. Definitely recommend a stay here.

From the moment we booked the PINK HOUSE through check out was flawless! Huge thanks to the owners for making everything you need at your fingertips. The house and pool are both inviting and gorgeous. The yard simply can’t be described in a few words. It’s a breathtaking work of art by a true gardenista. The decor is inviting and tastefully done. The owners welcome you with extras and they want your stay to be special. The PINK HOUSE is awesome! It embraces you and makes you feel at home.

Itz true!! Good things happen in Pink Houses. It was the coldest Christmas in over 30 years when we arrived. The house was equipped with everything you would need for a pleasant stay. It was decorated to perfection! We were welcomed with a beautiful basket of snacks and suggestions for local dining. We loved every minute of Our stay. Sally was in contact with Us the entire time to make sure everything was perfect and it was! Thank you Sally and Hal your warm hospitality made our stay a pleasure:)

I stay at rental properties regularly. Our staylat the Pink House was wonderful. The home was perfect for the 3 of us. Amenities were top notch. Kitchen didn't lack anything that we might have desired. Nice modern furnishing. Beds were comfortable. We spent much of our time in or around the pool, the landscape is amazing! We had hoped for a pool area that provided a bit of privacy. The spectacular landscape provided not only privacy but the wonder of nature with huge live oak trees and tropical splendor in the variety of exquisite plants was breathtaking. I hope to come back again.

We stayed for six weeks. The home was very well equipped, nicely designed with new modern furnishings, bright and sunny, the back yard and pool were lovely and private. Pool and yard maintenance was done several times a week. House keeping was done weekly. They would change the sheets and towels too. The property manager would always get back to us right away when we had questions. The location could not be better, a short walk to restaurants and the Lions bridge to downtown old St Augustine with shops, museums, history tours and great restaurants. We very much enjoyed our stay at The Pink House and would do it again.

The Pink House is a lovely home. It is comfortable with plenty of seating inside and outside. The kitchen is fully stocked with a great selection of pots, pans, dishes, etc. The backyard is private and the landscape is beautiful. The pool needs some work... but I was told this was going to be done in May. The house is within walking distance to St. Augustine historic district. It's an easy walk over the bridge that takes about 15- 20 minutes. Parking and traffic is at a premium so walking is a great alternative. The house manager, Sally, was always accessible. She was friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this property.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Pink House. The description, photos and video in the ad accurately depict the “10-minute house”. Beautiful - comfortable furnishings, high speed internet, a well-stocked kitchen, and a back yard oasis. We appreciated the mid-century modern vibe of the home but with all the modern amenities. This property is in a quiet neighbourhood that is a short walk across the scenic “Bridge of Lions” to the historic St-Augustine, with its many attractions, great restaurants, and shops. The local beaches are minutes away by car or about a 30-minute bike ride. Prior to arrival we received detailed easy to follow instructions and upon walking through the front door discovered a beautiful welcome basket filled with gourmet goodies and a Pink House canvas bag. Throughout our stay Sally was quick to respond to our questions. If you're going to St Augustine book this property, it’s simply gorgeous!

Ooohhh Pink House, how I miss you! I have been very few places that have felt both so luxurious and so comfortable at once - but the Pink House easily achieves both! The backyard pool alone is perfection - large, sparkling clean, lots of succulents and other flora that fills the yard for total privacy - it could easily be in a VRBO ad! Luckily, the rest of the house is just as fantastic! Everything you could ever need to cook, grill, or entertain is stocked in the kitchen. The living and dining rooms have lots of seating and yet feel intimate. Both bedrooms are quiet retreats with immaculate en suite bathrooms. And the location is ideal - a short walk over the bridge to downtown or bike to the lighthouse or restaurants nearby. And while all of this makes the Pink House a great rental, it’s the little things that take this to a ‘wow’ rental: the fluffy bath towels, the plush rug in the bedroom, the thoughtful welcome note and basket, how spotless everything is, the monogrammed pool towels, how focused the property owner / manager are on your satisfaction, the stunning art throughout the house. If you want your visit to St Augustine to be easy, comfortable, and luxurious, book the Pink House - you will not be disappointed!

St. Augustine is complicated: parking is a trial, there are enough restaurants to challenge anyone's choices, most hotels and B n B's are old with lots of steps. This is the perfect respite. This is a haven in all the bustle. If location is the key, this is where you want to be! At the end of the Bridge of Lions, even if you have mobilty difficulties you can scooter to the historic district and not worry about parking. Just 15 minutes from the beaches and other great restaurants, with other fine eateries just two blocks away. The house is spotless and Sally is the most gracious host. Bottled water by every bed and a basket of fresh fruits and goodies (you swoon for the Effie's oatmeal biscuits). The best rental we've had! Sally provided an annotated list of restaurants that was spot-on. What will make your stay idyllic is the back yard: beautifully landscaped, serene, a haven from the mania after a day riding the trolley, taking in the museums, and genrally wearing yourself out with the sites. If you have mobility difficulties, know that there are two steps from the garage to the kitchen entrance. But inside, it is all one easy floor with spacious, sun-lit rooms and the view into the backyard is magical.

Hal our house manager was wonderful from the moment we booked. The house was pristine inside and out. The owners have taken great care to tend to every single detail inside and out. We were greeted with a welcome note and a basket of goodies upon arrival. They had even stocked a few beverages for us in the fridge. Special touches and details were everywhere through the house. The backyard was a tropical oasis! There are flowers and gardens and trees everywhere! Orchids are draped through the palms and succulent planters dotted the pool deck. The pool and grounds of the property are meticulous. Ryan the pool guy comes twice a week and ensure that the pool is sparkling at all times. Do not hesitate…book this place! You will be glad you did. Thank you to Hal and the rest of the people who have made this such a beautiful trip.
