About VQ

Our Vision for Vacation Quest


The owners of the vacation homes that we rent are our clients and our employers. These owners trust us to take care of their homes. This is a huge responsibility that we accept with extreme seriousness. The people who rent our homes are not just renters, tenants or customers. They are our GUESTS, and we will never take that for granted.

From the very first contact a guest has with our company, we expect to surpass all expectations. It doesn't end there; we strive to create a lifetime relationship. We expect from ourselves nothing but the best, it is just that simple. We are constantly working on improving our guidelines, procedures, teams and systems, to meet these lofty expectations.


What Makes us Different?

With our Schlage lock system, there’s no need to pick up keys! At the time of your reservation, you will receive an e-mail asking you to choose a 4-digit code. And boom, whatever you choose, that’s your key! Our express check-in/check-out keyless lock system is very popular with our guests. The locks are both convenient and much safer than the old fashion key setup, as the codes are activated at check-in and deactivated at check-out. There’s no chance of someone making copies of keys to your vacation home and breaking in!

You can save hundreds when you book directly through us as opposed from a third party service! On the webpage for the home you wish to stay at there will be a section called “Instant Quote” to the right of the pictures. Simply input the (available) dates you wish to stay with us, and hit the “Get quote” button! It will instantly give you a quote, and underneath the total you will see a link that says, “Book it Now”, and if you do want to book it now, click that link, and you will be re-directed to the reservation page! 

About the Vacation Quest Team

Vacation Quest is a family owned and operated small business run by a small and dedicated team with a lot of heart. They are both born and bred Jacksonville natives with ties in Northeast Florida that go all the way back to the indentured slaves from Minorca that the Spanish brought in.

Daryl Singleton has been in real estate one way or another for 29 years, but he had always wanted to go back to his first love, the hospitality industry. When Daryl was only 14 years old his parents purchased an oceanfront hotel and put Daryl in charge of the front desk. He took many detours, as life is known to throw at us all, but he finally made his way back to hospitality in 2015 when he rebranded his previous business venture into Vacation Quest.
VacationQuest.com is a property management company specializing vacation beach homes. VQ manages both single family homes and condos located in St Augustine, Ponte Vedra Beach, and coming soon in Jacksonville Beach. The office is located in Ponte Vedra, Florida.

If you receive an e-mail reply, there’s a very good chance that it was typed up by the administrative assistant, Jessica. Jessica’s job entails many of the small details it takes to run a business, as well taking care of the Vacation Quest website and social media. She is a Florida and Jacksonville born native, who currently lives in Northern New Jersey with her husband.
