I’ve been coming to Mayo Clinic for the past four years, and I’ve had the pleasure of staying with Karina and Robert for three of those four years. Their homes are absolutely beautiful, exceptionally clean, and decorated with impeccable taste. Every detail feels thoughtfully considered, creating a space that is both elegant and welcoming. What truly sets them apart, though, is their attention to detail and genuine hospitality. They provide all the essentials you need during your stay, right down to the little things like coffee filters and garbage bags, so you don’t have to spend extra money buying basic necessities. This year, since I was traveling with just my mom, Karina and Robert went above and beyond by helping us with our luggage at both check-in and check-out. That kindness meant more to us than they probably realize. I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about these two. Their homes are more than just beautiful places to stay. They create an atmosphere where you feel comfortable, cared for, and truly at home. Their thoughtfulness and willingness to go the extra mile make you feel less like a guest and more like part of their family. When you’re traveling for medical care, having a place that feels like home makes all the difference. Karina and Robert provide exactly that, and I’m incredibly grateful to have found them. If you’re looking for a place to stay where the accommodations are exceptional and the hospitality is even better, you simply cannot go wrong with them!

A dream from beginning to end - great and helpful communication with hosts, the home exactly as described and more, easy check-in and check-out instructions with an online guidebook. Location is perfect, just one block off beach and one block to shopping area with anything you could possibly need. So grateful for all the perfect touches in the house - they thought of everything you might need at this home away from home. Loved the balconies and the privacy of the jack and jill bathroom with each bedroom having their own closet and bathroom privacy (shower was shared, but able to be closed off from the private toilet areas of each bathroom). It was wonderfully stocked with towels, extra blankets, bathrobes, and anything you could think of. Beach area is wonderful, and although we weren't able to make use of them, all of the things you'd need for the beach were provided. Kitchen is easy to navigate and very clean - even all of the dishes. Will definitely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a safe and welcoming place to use as home base in this area.

This was a lovely beach home set right on the beach with easy, private access. There was plenty of parking including inside a garage. The home was well stocked in the kitchen as well as plenty of beach towels and other amenities. This home is located along a stretch of South Ponte Vedra Beach on A1A across from the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Reserve so there are no homes, condos or hotels on the inland side therefore very private and offers beautiful sunset views towards the mainland. Overall, the beach is very quiet and private, we barely saw any other beachgoers the whole time we were there. Despite its private location, there are plenty of shops and restaurants within a short drive either south to Villano Beach (where there is also a Publix) or north a little further to Ponte Vedra. It's also a short drive to St. Augustine where there is plenty to do. We have stayed at this particular location many times and plan to always return for a relaxing family vacation.

We moved in for the week to help our son and his bride to be for their beach wedding. They had rented a place right on the beach up the road, so Salt and Palms was the perfect location for us. Weatherwise we had rain.every.dang.day! (Thanks hurricane Isaias). This is why I can truly say what a wonderful place Salt and Palms is for a rental. We were in the house far more than we planned. The nice open concept that was beautifully decorated, comfy furniture, plenty of kitchen items for eating in and a awesome grill was much appreciated. We played all the games they had from scrabble to uno! It was also wonderful for our friend who is limited in mobility to have a one floor option (especially with wet weather that can add to safety concerns) It was a delight to work with the Azule team they are responsive and dedicated! My son's wedding was perfect and so was Salt and Palms.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy three-bedroom home! It’s tucked away in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood but still just a short 2.5 mile drive to downtown St. Augustine — super convenient for exploring the historic district, restaurants, and beaches. The house was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We especially loved the outdoor space — perfect for grilling, sitting around the fire pit, and playing cornhole in the evenings. It really added to the charm of the place. The host was friendly, responsive, and made check-in easy. We’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable getaway close to downtown but with a nice bit of peace and quiet.

We had an amazing stay at Salt and Palms! The home was spotless, beautifully maintained, looked just like the photos, and was well stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The location was just what we were looking for! A short walk to the beach with plenty of great restaurants and close to down town St. Augustine. Our favorite part was the outdoor living space. It was perfect for relaxing, privacy, and enjoying the beautiful Florida weather after a day at the beach. The host were responsive and detailed ensuring we had everything and more that we would need. Salt and Palms truly made our trip special! We will absolutely be staying here again and highly recommend it.

This property exceeded all of our expectations and was exactly as advertised. The home was immaculate, beautifully maintained, and exceptionally comfortable. The master suite alone is worth the stay, featuring private access to the balcony and a spacious walk-in shower. Having two garages was a tremendous convenience, and the fully equipped downstairs apartment provided plenty of room for our family. We especially loved the easy access to the beach. It felt almost like having our own private stretch of shoreline, making it easy to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. We couldn't have been happier with our stay and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful beach vacation.

Our family absolutely loved our stay at Randy’s beach house! Randy and the hosts were wonderful — quick to respond and even brought over a set of weights so my wife could work out. The location is unbeatable, right on the beach with beautiful sunrise views each morning. The home was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped — the kitchen was so easy to use, it felt like home. We loved stepping right out onto the sand each day. The house has everything you need — boogie boards, towels, chairs, and beach toys. Our kids spent hours playing in the waves. There are great seafood spots nearby, and St. Augustine is just a short 15-minute drive away. A truly memorable trip for our family — we can’t wait to come back!

10/10 — Absolutely Perfect Beach Getaway!We could not have asked for a better place to stay! This beach property was absolutely beautiful, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable vacation. The location was perfect, with the beach right there and the most amazing views. The property was even better than we expected, and you can tell the owners truly care about their guests and their experience. Everything was well maintained, welcoming, and comfortable.We enjoyed every minute of our stay and honestly didn’t want to leave! We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for the perfect beach vacation.10/10 — five stars all the way!

What a wonderful treat. House is located directly across the street from the ocean with a direct path in front of the house. Views are fantastic from the main living room. The home is very nicely appointed with everything you may need during your stay. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking and serving items and had everything that we needed. Each bedroom has its own bath making it very comfortable for adults in our group. The 2 downstairs bedrooms are accessed from an outside entryway which made it a little awkward but private. The home is very clean and nothing was worn or tired looking. I did not feel like we were staying in a "rental" due to all of the nice amenities.
