Wander & Rest Tip
After a creative, hands-on evening shaping clay at the studio, take a scenic drive north up the coast from St. Augustine Beach back to the peaceful sanctuary of your Vilano Beach property. Along your route home, treat yourself to a well-deserved post-class reward—stop by 36 Granada in the historic district for a sophisticated evening cocktail, or swing by 180 Vilano Grill & Pizza right before you reach the neighborhood to grab a comforting, late-night bite. Once you arrive back at your private coastal retreat, wash away the studio dust and transition into total relaxation. Soak your hard-working hands and muscles in the bubbling hot tub, deeply unwind inside the private sauna, or float under the stars in the pristine heated pool before settling into our ultra-comfortable lounge spaces to reflect on your artistic creations.
