Great condo good value
This is a great condo. Sunsets from the porch and sunrise on the beach or from the rooftop deck. The beach is a short walk but manageable the pools are nice and offer entertainment Close to town and other activities I would stay again if we come back to St Augustine. Owner was great and easy to communicate with.

Great location with nice quiet housing that give you peace after fun in the sand or the night life/adventure in downtown St. Augustine. Owners are always nice and willing to make sure your stay is the best. Will always look to book here when visiting St. Augustine.

Responsive Host
We couldn't be happier with the attentiveness of the host during our stay. Whenever we had questions, we had the answers within minutes. Checkin process was seamless. The condo is just a few minutes walk from the beach. I loved the rooftop deck where we could sit during the evening and listen to the ocean and enjoy the vista of stars.

This host is great!
We enjoyed this condo very much. The walk to the beach if short, the condo was clean and very comfortably furnished. The neighborhood is quiet. We did have an issue with the internet, but it was an issue with the provider. The host did EVERYTHING in her power to fix the situation. Lisa is an amazing host and really cares about her visitors having a nice comfortable stay.

Beautiful beach
The Hibiscus is our go to when staying in St Augustine. And we were pleased with this unit. First thing my daughter said when walking in was 'it smells so pretty in here' Everything we needed, the beach cart was invaluable! Plenty of towels and nice little touches like a bowl of travel size toiletries, and a cabinet with extras like lotion, after sun, sunscreen, and even feminine supplies. Quiet pools and the nicest, cleanest, most powder fine sand beach you could ever ask for. Only a 15 min drive to Historic St Augustine. Look closely on the beach, you may find some sea glass or sharks teeth! 3rd floor was less than fun but it was what we signed up for. The beach is about a 5 min easy walk through the resort.

Listing
I am new to VRBO and booking a place. I learned to read everything. This condo was lovely. I just didn’t notice that is was a 3 floor walk up! Also, the Property may have beach view this condo does not. It overlooks some trees and near A1A This is just what I learned. The host was great in texting with me. In the roof of our building was a “crows nest” that you are able to go to and see the ocean. It is a wonderful spot Overall again-condo was lovely and we enjoyed it immensely

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Aug 2023
Yes, these are clearly listed in the description although we are a short five minute walk through the resort to the beach. Our rates are reflective of this- as a direct ocean view listing would be a significantly higher rate Thank you for enjoying our place.

St Augustine is exceedingly beautiful and the condo is well located for accessing the beach and the city. We loved the night of the lights, the vibrant atmosphere of the city and the warmth of the people there. The layout of the condo is quite nice. Our stay is comfortable and there is plenty of space to hangout. We enjoyed the hot tubs and the roof top view of the ocean very much too. Lisa is very responsive to our questions and is super considerate throughout. We had a blessed time. Merry Christmas!

The location of this condo is wonderful only a short 15 min ride to the city easy getting around! Great sunsets from the living room and balcony, sunrises from the roof top deck! The beach was beautiful and a short walk away there was a cart to use for all your beach gear which was very helpful.. Pools were perfect but not heated at the time of our stay. Very quiet neighborhood. Just be ready for the three flights of stairs but well worth it, we hope to be back in the future!! I have already recommend it to a few friends! Oh and bring a cooler! :)

Lisa was very communicative before, during, and after our stay! Answered all of my questions and made us feel right at home! The condo is beautifully furnished and was very comfortable! One of the pools is close by with great gas grills. The hosts provided beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc. The beach is a bit of a hike so use the wagon they provided. No elevator so pack lightly.

We enjoyed our stay. Clean and well stocked. We did leave an electric tea kettle as one was not available in the unit. Walk to beach was a little farther than anticipated with older family member. Pillows were super hard or flat. We purchased our own. Kids loved the pools. Close proximity to restaurants and grocery store.

Cozy Condo Close to Beach and Amenities
Very nice, well appointed 2 br condo within walking distance to beach, heated pool and spa. Our stay was everything we expected.. cozy and comfortable condo, just the size we needed for the 2 of us with nearby access to a pristine beach. The owner Lisa kept in good contact and checking in was a breeze. There is also access to a nice heated pool and spa which was wonderful coming off the beach. Historic St. Augustine is a very short 20 minutes away. Shopping and some restaurants are 2-3 minutes away. I would definitely stay here again.

I have to refute the cleanliness statements as we are DILIGENT regarding cleanliness and all reviews support this. I will check the top of the fans. There are no issues with our patio furniture what so ever. I have been told the chairs on the rooftop are being replaced so this must be what is being referenced. My cleaner offered to assist with bags when she over heard a question if there was a “porter”.
