San Marco is a neighborhood of Jacksonville, Florida, south of Downtown across the St. Johns River. The neighborhood was formerly the independent city of South Jacksonville until it was annexed by Jacksonville in 1932. The neighborhood is primarily residential, with an integrated commercial sector known as San Marco Square.

Guests will have full access to the house.

This home has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. There is two king-sized bed and one queen. The rooms are spacious with great natural lighting. The quaint San Marco area centers on its leafy namesake square, a lively hub with indie boutiques and casual eateries serving brunch, pizza and ice cream. Chic bistros and trendy bars dot surrounding streets.

Some of the amenities we have include.

**Smart TVs available
**Relaxing living room
** Fridge
** Microwave
** Back yard
**Coffee maker with coffee, cream, and sugar
** Eating Utensils
**Laptop-friendly workspace

and more!

This home has great walkability to a lot of bars, restaurants and other activities. However if you are wanting to go a little further Uber is always available and parking is free in most areas.

★ COVID-19 SANITIZATION ★
Heath, safety, and wellbeing of our guests are of utmost importance to us. For this reason, we use a thorough and extensive process of cleaning after each check-out.

We charge a pet fee of $100 per reservation for 2 pets maximum.

*If you neglect to inform us ahead of time that you are bringing a pet with you than we reserve the right to either TERMINATE your stay early or charge an additional $100 on top of the original pet fee.

The following additional charges apply to late check outs/early arrivals, assuming we can offer this at all (we often can’t so please never assume this will be allowed):

1 hr or less early arrival or late departure: $50

1-2 hr early arrival/late departure: $100

2-3 hr early arrival/late departure: $200

These fees are primarily in place to highly discourage late checkouts/early arrivals since this causes our cleaning service undue stress to prep the unit prior to your or the next set of guest’s arrival. This also increases the need for them to rush/cut corners, increasing the likelihood of them not cleaning the unit to the high standard which we hold them to.

REFUND DISCLAIMER:
Please note that if a refund is issued for your booking, the processing fee of 3.9% will not be refunded. The refunded amount will be the total paid minus the 3.9% processing fee per Stripe’s return policy. This applies to direct bookings and bookings made through select booking channels. Thank you for your understanding.

for the consumables.
● Please do not rearrange the furniture.

Great Location and Excellent Hosts
This location is ideal and the house is super cute with all the amenities you need. We stayed here for a business trip and it was perfect for our needs. I made an error when booking and booked the wrong dates - arrived at the airport and realized the error. Made a quick phone call to VRBO who gave me the contact number of the host and they were kind enough to change the dates. No hassle at all. I will definitely stay here again when in Jax.

Good solid base for a visit
Nothing too fancy. AC was a blessing for us northerners. Good location to stores and shops and the venue for graduation. House is older, but well kept. The ice dispenser in the fridge wasn't working, but you could still get the ice from inside.

A place to lite to get ready for the night.
Older well kept house. Backs up to a school and nice redone house in upward transitioning neighborhood. We walked to the small business district where we ate. Beds were comfortable as was the sitting area. The kitchen was not too well stocked with cooking item so best be looking to eat out. No grill and outside porch is small. Claw foot tub is a challenge getting in and out and there is no rubber mat to keep you from slipping.

Cute quaint house
This was a great little house. Very close to the city. Close to shopping and the quaint places to eat are within walking distance. The center of San Marco had a little gazebo and benches, within walking distance from the house. The thermostat took a little getting used to. We’re old school and it’s high tech. It kept turning itself to the preset settings all by itself. We would wake up freezing in the middle of the night. We finally figured it out though. 😆 It was a great place to stay for spring break. 💕

The place was clean and nice. Perfect for what we needed. Located 5 minutes away from downtown. Publix is a 5 minute walk. One thing is the train the goes by late hours of night. But it went by quick and we got used to it. Would totally stay there again.

Everything about our stay was exactly as advertised! The TVs were a bit of a challenge for my father to operate, but we worked it out. Lastly, but most importantly…the beds were the most comfortable we’ve experienced in any place not our home, EVER!! A+

Great Little House Near Downtown Jax
I was in town for business but needed to take my dog so a house was preferable. The place was perfect. Everything was clean and organized. The main bedroom has an adjacent huge office area. The owners were very helpful. My only minor negative comment is I wish the yard was fully fenced.

Delightful...
We recently traveled to San Marco/Jacksonville, FL for a few days. We had a really nice trip. Our hosts were attentive, friendly and pleasant. The house was very nice. The kitchen is well done, the dining room and living room were very nice. There were 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, a laundry and an extra room. All were clean and well kept. Frankly, I hated to come home. The neighbors were friendly. We had our small dog with us and I felt safe walking him on all but 1 street. The house is walking distance from several restaurants and a Publix. When we return to San Marco I hope this property is available.
