Thank you so much! I'm glad you loved the location and enjoyed being within walking distance of downtown. It’s a great neighborhood, and I'd be happy to host you again anytime! 😊
We loved this place. The host was very welcoming. The Studio was prefect for me , my husband and our dog. Very clean. Very quiet. The studio is located right beside a lake. Plenty of places to walk your dog. Also in walking distance to historical St. Augustine. The one complaint was the tv is small for the room size. We would stay there again.

We also appreciate the feedback about the TV and will definitely keep that in mind. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime! 😊🌟
This property is exactly how it shows in the pictures. Its across the street from a small lake and it's a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. It's an easy walk to downtown and most of the places to go for sightseeing.

Comfortable accommodations- cleanliness of studio was great. Location is very nice but wish we had been closer to downtown activities due to the fact we are older. All in all- a great stay!

This little place was perfect! Its actually located on the end of St George Street. My partner and I walked the whole time. Never used the bikes. It is a little bit of a walk...but, loved every minute of a much needed vacation. Thank you for letting us into your home.

The loft is exactly as shown & described. Clean comfortable & close to the Historic District & the Bay. Being right on the lake is fantastic & the neighborhood is very beautiful and quiet. The interior is well appointed and well stocked. The bed is super comfortable. There's a great little deck to sit on and relax. The property host is very responsive and wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend this property and will be returning soon!

Thank you for your wonderful review!

We’d love to host you again and appreciate your high recommendation! 🌟
When I arrived, anything I needed for the stay was supplied. There are windows on two sides and the front door has a window and then there is the deck that overlooks the lake. So, there is so much light into the apartment. Very calm and quiet, yet close to downtown. You can take beautiful walks along the lake which is right outside your door.

Everything was as it was explained or showed in the listing and the location to everything we did was very good. Not a walkable distance for us but for some it could be. We would have utilized the provided bikes had it not rained the rest of the weekend. We had a great time in St Augustine, even with the rain, and already planning a trip back!

Hi Jeana! 🌟 Thank you for your feedback, we are delighted to hear that you found everything as expected and that the location suited your needs well. It's a shame about the rain, but it's wonderful to know that it didn't dampen your spirits and that you're already planning a return trip to St. Augustine. We'd be thrilled to welcome you back and hopefully, next time, you'll get to enjoy those bikes! If you have any other plans in mind for your next trip, feel free to let us know. Safe travels, and we look forward to hosting you again soon!
Property was conveniently located and very clean. It was in my opinion a little bit too far to walk to the main downtown area but not a big concern as parking was available once we got there. As far as the stay itself… my husband and myself were there for 4 nights and there was only 4 pods of coffee so we had to go buy coffee along with a bar of soap for the shower as it wasn’t provided. Not a big thing just inconvenient. One thing I would suggest is to upgrade the TV. It’s very small for the size of the room and you can’t read the guide on it without getting up to see it.

Jeffery, I appreciate your review. It's great to hear that the location and cleanliness met your needs. We also send out a list of everything you can expect to bring two days before your arrival, but unfortunately, we don't provide coffee pods or shower soap because those are personal preferences for our guests. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to host you again 😊
