We stayed here for 3 nights in December. Two college girlfriends getting away for the weekend and seeing a show in St Augustine. It truly is off site from the Bayfront in. We checked in there but drove quite a distance over a bridge onto the remote area of Villano Beach. The cottage was cute and is technically on the beach but there is another building blocking the view to the beach. It is really one large room so no privacy except in the bathroom. Everything was there that we needed. There was an extra strong odor that you might expect from a beach house — but it was Strong and we never really acclimated to it. We walked on the beach but no where else or walk /had to get in car and get back to the down down area. I liked it and would recommend it.
