Our Daughter was getting married in St Augustine so booked a stay. House was clean and convenient to nearby historic areas. Also enjoyed the porches and outdoor area. Hope to come back again sometime.

Thank you so much! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the space and found it a great spot to recharge. The porches really are a favorite! We'd love to welcome you back anytime.
We enjoyed our stay. The house is quaint and in a very good location for access to the heart of Saint Augustine. Many restaurants nearby. We had 3 couples in our party so it was great that each room had a king sized bed and they were comfortable. We each had our own bathroom another BIG plus. The living area was perfect for hanging out in late at night, catching up. Over all a great visit.

Lovely historic home in the heart of historic St Augustine. Perfect location for antique shopping , walking distance to all the major historic sites . Great night life to stroll through on St George Street. The house was very roomy for our family. The showers were hot and the beds slept amazing !

I stayed at Casa Sophia over Thanksgiving with my sister and her family. It is the perfect location if you want to walk to where all of the action is. The house was warm and cozy and had that old Saint Augustine historical feel. Although we didn't cook a traditional Thanksgiving meal at the house, the kitchen looked adequate. The best part was sitting on the deck watching the people walk by.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled Casa Sophia provided a warm and cozy retreat with that charming historical Saint Augustine vibe. It sounds like you made wonderful memories, especially enjoying the deck and the lively surroundings. 🌟 We'd love to welcome you back for more special moments in the future!
Overall a very positive experience. The check-in process was seamless, location was great for walkable access to a myriad of tourist attractions, restaurants, etc. The only critique is that as a very old property, there was bad odor downstairs, but bearable. Good value for the price.
