Pulling up to the place was so awesome! I wish it was my house. The homes in the neighborhood are so big and nice! There's a seafood market/restaurant right next door. Check in was super easy and our one night stay was great. The communication with the management was great. I'd stay again

The staff went above and beyond when I had an issue with payment, even when hotels.com struggled to resolve the issue. The property is breathtakingly, beautiful and always a wonderful place to stay. This is my third time staying there and it is quickly becoming our go to romantic getaway.

We had the 3rd floor villa for our couple days....it's like a 4 bedroom house with lots of common area space also. The access to the roof and hot tub up there is great. Wonderful views from both, the room and rooftop. Water pressure in the shower is great...all the usual kitchen amenities you would have at home, including dishes, silverware, placemats and a dishwasher. A really nice place to stay for our stay-cation.

Beautiful room with exquisite decor. The entire place had Japanese furniture, paintings and Geisha figurines. The room was clean, with fresh sheets and beautiful colors. Red pillows cases and a big red bow on the bed (made with the blanket) were the welcoming party.
I liked that a code for the room and the entrance door were sent prior to our arrival.
The staff were great and friendly. Beautiful scenery, nice and comfy hotel.

Nice, quiet and relaxing 2 night stay. Loved the 2 small pools. Everything was clean and the complimentary continental breakfast was convenient. Also, the restaurant just next door was an added plus. Will definitely visit again when we need a quiet getaway!!

Very nice, let us check in early. Clean European boutique style hotel. The shower was great pressure, the bed, linens, and pillows were comfortable and cozy. Nice little breakfast with everything bagels and cream cheese, good coffee. It’s an old building so there is some noise but not bad. I loved the quaintness of it. I would definitely go back. AND- the best seafood restaurant is right next door- Commander’s, the best oysters we have ever had!!

Great choice for a relaxing getaway on A1A in Crescent Beach/Matanzas River area. Bed was comfortable and room was huge plus the balcony was a lovely place to sit and watch the sunset. It was a nice walk to the pier and a cool breeze while we were sitting there.

The room was clean. The staff was good. The walls are paper thin. The people in the next room were playing loud video games most of the night. The boiler broke. No hot water to shower.

Only ten minutes outside St. Augustine, this gem is the perfect retreat from the hustle bustle of the tourist areas. Sound does travel on the travertine floors, but there is very little of it. Great breakfast, lovely staff, beautiful view and the sunsets are breathtaking.

The property is private and quiet. This property certainly lives up to its name, this is my second stay at this property and from start to finish they were welcoming and accommodating as I arrived a little early this trip I was able to get early check-in and the room was beautiful and clean and well decorated with amazing views and peaceful scenery. I can’t recommend staying here enough. Room one had a jetted private Jacuzzi tub and it was clean and comfortable and obviously well maintained. I will certainly be staying again.
