We had a wonderful stay at the beach house in St. Augustine! Dakota was incredibly friendly and flexible; it honestly felt like we’d known him for years. The home was spacious and cozy, comfortably accommodating our group of 14 plus two small pups with ease. It had everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Overall, it was a great experience with an amazing host. We’d absolutely stay again!

Response from the owner

Adrianne, thank you so much for your beautiful review! It truly means a lot that you and your group (and the pups!) felt right at home. I’m so happy the space worked well for everyone and that you had a relaxing and memorable getaway. You were a joy to host, and I’d absolutely love to welcome you all back anytime!

Dakota was a great host. He was always prompt in responding and provided excellent tips on what to do and where to eat in St. Augustine. I went to spend New Year with my family of 16 people of different ages. The house was spacious with well equipped kitchens, including basic seasoning, oil, and detergents.. We enjoyed hours on the patio with the barbecue. The house is close to the beach and downtown St. Augustine. The price/value was very good considering the size of the place and how well it is located. I highly recommend this property and would consider staying there again.

Elka, thank you for your kind words! I strive to ensure my property is well maintained and perfect for large families or gatherings to have a great time near the beach and downtown! I look forward to welcoming you again in the future!

The home was spacious, clean, and perfect for our large family gathering. The location was ideal—close to the beach, shops, and restaurants. We loved the beach gear provided for guest use! A few things to note: the kitchen could use some updated items. The electric skillet had an incompatible plug, and there wasn’t much kid-friendly dishware. We also noticed frequent evening activity and noise from the garage, with lights on and someone coming and going. It felt like someone might be living on-site, which wasn’t mentioned in the listing. This wasn’t a major issue, but advance notice would’ve been appreciated. Also, for families renting both units, there’s no interior connection between them. Adding a secure, shared hallway would make it easier to move between spaces. Overall, it was a great stay with just a few areas that could improve future experiences.

Response from the owner

Hi Bayli, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I am thrilled to know that your family enjoyed the spacious layout, cleanliness, and the convenient location near the beach, shops, and restaurants. We’re glad you enjoyed the beach gear, just one of the many amenities we provide to help guests make the most of their stay. Regarding the garage, it’s occasionally accessed for Airbnb-related needs and long-term planning, including a future project to create interior access between both units to better accommodate larger groups. Apologies if this caused any disturbance during your visit. I always aim to keep things quiet and respectful. Thank you also for your suggestion about the kitchen setup. That’s something I’ll definitely consider in future planning as we continue to improve the space for all types of guests. Thanks again for staying with us and for sharing your experience. We’d love to host you again in the future!

Our family really enjoyed staying at Paradise Palms! We had a large group of 14, so the two houses were perfect for providing privacy, sleeping accommodations and spacious eating areas for cooking and serving up meals for a group our size. Bedrooms were spacious and private, and Dakota even provided a pack n play for a little one as well as games and beach toys for kids. The houses are located in a quiet neighborhood that feels safe, so security was never an issue especially with kids. In addition, this property is close to Crescent Beach, so it was super easy to go to the beach and try out other amenities in the area. Dakota was very helpful with suggestions for things to do and was always cheerful in his communications. Our family enjoyed a wonderful vacation and appreciated being able to stay at Paradise Palms. Thank you!

Host was living in the garage. This was not listing on the ad. When we look back at other reviews, someone else stated that they also heard noise from the garage. Definitely would not stay here again and would recommend others not to stay here. Ice maker wasn’t working and missing shelves in fridge in back house.

Response from the owner

With 90+ 5-star reviews, guests consistently love this home, this review displayed a serious misunderstanding. I do not live in the garage. As clearly stated in the listing and house rules, the garage is locked, off-limits, and used occasionally for storage or restocking. I was briefly on-site for upkeep and never inside guest areas, always respectful of privacy. Had any concern been mentioned during the stay, I would’ve addressed it immediately. I remain committed to providing the 5-star experience so many guests have trusted and praised.

Dakota’s house was wonderful to stay at! It was spacious, clean, and in a good neighborhood. The beds were super comfortable as well! He is very responsive and tries to accommodate you as much as he can. I would stay here again with no hesitation!

Gorgeous house! Tucked away in St. Auggy but still very close to the market, food, and the beach! Clean and spacious! Truly a great get away whether you already live in FL or elsewhere.

Our stay was just as expected. The house is roomy & clean. It's located in a quiet area & not too far from all the local attractions. Dakota was very nice & responsive. We look forward to coming back and experiencing more of St Augustine and will be happy to book here again!

We found this hidden gem at the last minute after arriving at another Airbnb that unfortunately wasn’t as expected. After a long day of traveling and a stressful last-minute change of plans, Dakota was able to accommodate us the very same night, which we truly appreciated. The home was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. It was located in a quiet neighborhood just a 4-minute drive from crescent beach, and the small yard was perfect for our dogs to enjoy some time outside. Dakota was incredibly responsive, friendly, and quick to answer any questions we had throughout our stay. We had such a wonderful experience and are so grateful this place was available. We’ve already saved this Airbnb for future trips and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommend!

Dakota was friendly and very quick to check in. We checked in well before check-in and we are very grateful for that. The house was clean and comfortable. This is the first house that had incredibly comfortable mattresses. The beach is a 4 minute drive away. We visited several different beaches but Crescent beach was the best for us. White, clean and fine cand MAla raallu lilad it Thank you very much

Response from the owner

I love to hear from my guests- they often love the mattress! I am happy to know you enjoyed these beach visits!

My friends and I stayed here for almost a week. Dakota was always extremely responsive, and does allow early check-in for a small fee which we liked as our hotel was cancelled. He was quick to message back and help us with any questions we had. He also had a ton of local recommendations for us! The home was in a nice location, and we didn’t have any issues within the house.

Response from the owner

I am always here to ensure my guest have their best stay experience!

Very clean house! Kudos to the cleaning crew. House looks just like pics. Dakota was responsive and great at recommendations. I give the cleaning crew and Dakota 5 stars. The neighborhood is quiet and felt safe. Just a quick drive to crescent beach. There were beach chairs and toys for the kids which was nice including an umbrella! The kids wished the air hockey tables were available but they appeared out of service in garage. This house is connected to another house just FYI with a shared horseshoe type driveway. It also doesn’t have a fenced in yard - there are fences but they don’t connect so it’s not fenced in. The baseboards and hallway trim need some tending to. They are very beat up and it’s the first thing I noticed at the kitchen counter as soon as we walked in. Additionally the landscaping is lacking attention. There were no trash bags and no dish soap at sink. There were dishwasher pods however.

Response from the owner
