Beachside with Billiard Room & Beach Cruisers!

The Ruby Sea Turtle is a newly renovated Family Friendly 3 Bedroom 2 Bath Home located blocks from the Atlantic Ocean in North Jacksonville Beach. We provide a clean, comfortable, and private beach experience for all of our guests. Sleeping arrangements can comfortably accommodate up to 6 people. After a long day at the beach, come back and relax in front of the 70inch TV or challenge a friend to a game of pool!

So why The Ruby Sea Turtle?
Founded in 1884 by the Scull family, Jacksonville Beach was first known as Ruby Beach. William E. and Eleanor Scull were the first family to settle the area, working a post office and general store while living in tents on the beach with their two children, "Ruby" and Bessie. What began as a small, nearly unpopulated, nineteenth-century outpost on the route between Mayport and St. Augustine eventually grew into the thriving and lively Jacksonville Beach we know today. With our love for local history and wildlife, we decided to name the house after a combination of the historical Ruby Beach and the beautiful Sea Turtles that nest along our shores.

Cozy House Close to Beach

The house was very cozy and clean. It was a very short drive to the beach and centrally located to some very good nearby restaurants. The bikes were a great added feature. The only suggestions that I might make are a table large enough for 6 people to sit at and enjoy meals inside and some wine glasses. Other than that, our stay was fabulous.

This place was the best! Over the past 7 mos. I have experienced several unexpected devastating losses, to include my mother and best friend. I needed to hit the mental reset button and this place did just that. Location, thoughtfulness to what you would need during your stay was impressive. Loved the Dukes in the fridge(country girl through and through)! This home is a must! The outdoor is shower so insagram worthy. We will be back!! The hosts are amazing as well!!

Clean and Quiet

Located in a quiet neighborhood with lots of attention to detail. We had easy access to grocery shops and the beach. An incredible bakery is within walking distance for a morning treat. It's very clear that this house is loved and cared for by Thomas and Katie. I appreciated the print outs of check in and check out information. I would absolutely not hesitate to stay here again.

This property was in good shape, except the beds were low, and the commodes were low and hard to get up from. All but 1 of us are almost 6' tall and are senior citizens. Had a fun time with the pool table, when we were able to be there!

Great Location

We were in town for a Military Retirement and to catch up friends from when we lived here. Great location, easy access to the beaches, Jax Beach, Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach, and Mayport. Quiet neighborhood. Well appointed house, with lots of consumables available (coffee, laundry, towels, etc). The 3 queen beds were comfortable, AC worked great, fans in bedrooms was nice. Bath rooms were clean, and kitchen was stocked with spices, pots and pans, plates, etc. Pool table was fun to play on. SmartTV in living room was nice to relax to. Great stay!
