Beautiful hotel and lovely room. Very clean and fresh. Mattress was comfortable, shower was clean and roomy. Great breakfast and coffee every morning. Pool area and beach are really nice. We had delicious nachos and margaritas at the bar next to the pool. We really enjoyed our stay. The only negative would be lighting in the bathroom. It seems all the hotels have gone to dim lighting in the bathroom. Not good for putting makeup on. Everything else was 5 stars.

very pretty resort. pool area was nice, pool was perfect temperature. kids jumping in and out of hot tub, that was a little disappointing. buffet breakfast included was decent enough. happy hour that was included was nice and a great meeting spot for our group. my only complaint, was i didn't get any sleep. the air conditioner in our room was so loud. we had a lot of family here in different room and room types and that was something that was a problem in each room. staff was all very pleasant

A few fire pits were not working but no big deal. Evening managers cocktail hour was nice and the entertainment was very pleasant.

Parking is expensive. With the taxes it’s over $40 a night. Then recommended tipping is $7. Each time you pick up and drop off. So be prepared for that. But the valet is always wonderful. courteous. And fast They already have the air conditioning running so you’re not getting into a hot car. Other than that. I would definitely stay here again Beautiful resort.

The room was very clean and organized and had a partial view of the beach that was amazing! The hotel staff was great and very accommodating. The TV was not working as expected and the engineers were there very promptly to take care of the problem. The bathtub did have some rust and needs to be updated, but overall a great experience.

Our bathroom had a significant amount of mold. Front desk staff were rude teenagers that acted annoyed that my checking in interrupted their conversation. The mandatory valet was the worst valet I’ve ever dealt with. I choose this location specifically to avoid these type of issues that you’d expect at a Motel 6. Definitely wouldn’t stay here again.

Beautiful hotel but not worth the price because of dirty toilet and floors. I was hoping for a better experience. I was a housekeeper for 10 years cleaning rental lake houses and not ever did I get a bad review. My husband and son were wearing white socks and the bottom turned dark grey after taking a few steps into the room. The bottom of the toilet was black and there was dirt and hair behind the bathroom vanity. When you pay over $500 per night, you expect clean floors and a clean bathroom. Breakfast was very delicious and the hotel itself was absolutely beautiful!

We have stayed at this hotel once before and loved it. However, this time was different. The floor was so dirty that our feet were literally black from walking around the room. My two year old son found a pill and almost ate it. Lord knows what would have happened if I didn’t catch him with it. We didn’t want to touch it so called down to the front desk and they determined that it was “just and allegera” Parents, beware of this place and always double check the floors when you stay someplace.

I paid for ocean front balcony and they first put me in a side room on first floor, I tried to explain to the woman that I paid for oceanfront balcony and she said all rooms were taken. I go back to the room to look and saw there was no ocean view then I had to waste my time to explain this is not what I paid for they moved us to an ocean from room despite lying that they had none the room was not the room we wanted but it was better than the first so we settled but I am not that happy about this. A very dishonest and disappointing experience

I was very skeptical about our stay here after reading some reviews, but I had already booked it. The hotel lobby is beautiful and modern with great lighting and multiple comfortable sitting areas inside and out. The pool is large, clean and had plenty of loungers available during our stay. We were served sandwiches at the pool that were delicious. It was wonderful to be pampered in this way. The room we stayed in had a very loud air conditioner, kept us up all night so they moved us into another room immediately the next morning. We did pay for an ocean front room, but we saw no ocean from the room they moved us too. It was our 30th anniversary we were celebrating, but we were happy to be in a quieter room, so we didn’t question it. (But should have). Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Reception hour was a nice perk. The valet parking charge is silly. It would be better if they put that charge in the room charge so you didn’t feel like you were paying $40/night just to store your car and go nowhere. And remove the tacky sign out in the front that reminds everyone how much they are paying. Other than that we did love our stay here and would go again but demand to see the ocean if that’s what we pay for.

My family and I stayed for two nights while visiting family in the area. The hotel was very nice - we enjoyed the pool and beach. Staff was friendly and attentive. My granddaughter got a bad burn on her feet from the hot sand on the beach so wear footwear while on the beach. Hotel staff provided bandages and salve. Very helpful! We also loved the comfy chairs and fire ‘pits’ at night on the patio. Great ocean breezes after a hot July day.

Lovely resort like atmosphere. Delicious breakfasts, all bartenders were great! Young men & women adjusting rented umbrellas were consistent & polite. One young lady at the desk was offended when another desk attendant stopped her from looking at social media while I was asking about my misplaced debit card…unprofessional & no matter how many times she referred to me as “mam” afterwards, not okay! Toilet ran non stop but in all fairness we didn’t call the front desk as housekeeping seemed to adjust each morning. Not thrilled with parking charge of $40 a day, but definitely stay there again.

Overall, my wife and I had a good stay. The room was large and nicely appointed. We did, however, have two concerns. The first was that the gentleman at the front desk issued us room keys for a room that was already occupied by another guest. The second was that the required valet parking couldn't seem to enter us into their text message based system for requesting our vehicle. We thought this might be due to an incorrect phone number, but re-entering that did not fix the problem. Make sure you allow time if you have dinner reservations, etc.

The property is beautiful and clean, however the service at the front desk and housekeeping was awful. We booked through Orbitz and were given a price that included taxes and fees except for the resort fee. We were angry that there was no mention of a mandatory valet parking fee of $39 and a non refundable fee of $75 for a dog. When I mentioned this to the front desk. I was rudely told I should have gone to their website instead of booking through a third party. We were told the room was not ready and we would be sent a text or email letting us know when it was. Two hours later, we still had not received anything and my husband went to the front desk to inquire when the room would be ready. Be then, it was after 4:00 and had heard nothing. When we finally made it to the room, there was no shampoo, shower gel or hand soap in the containers. We requested extra towels and those items 3 times and never received them. The overall attitude of the staff at the front desk was insulting and rude. The extra charges upon arrival was deceptive.

As a hospitality professional I truly felt that the property did a great job in many areas. Clean and welcoming atmosphere, attentive Team at the Front Desk, Recreation and F&B. One area that I would recommend additional support in is the Managers Reception. 3 nights in a row we attended the reception at 5pm and the Bartending Team did a great job of explaining what all was included, but no Manger was present. Not even someone who looked like a Manager. A Managers presence would be a welcome addition even if so much as to be a buffer between the Bartenders and the guest. The MOD can work the line and explain the reception and what all is included so guests can order promptly at the bar once it becomes their turn. An MOD presence would also show support and appreciation to the working Team behind the bar for the 90 minute reception.

Highlight of our stay was Trevor at the front desk. He was incredibly friendly and attentive from the start and my five year old looked for him to say hi every time we passed the lobby. The entire staff were hospitable, gracious, and friendly. We can’t wait to come back when the beach is open. Thanks for an awesome spring break!

The best thing about the property is the location. Its right on the beach, with downtown St. Augustine a very short trip away. The hotel is on the Trolley Tour stop which makes time in the Old Town easy and convenient for a reasonable fee. The worst thing about the property is the mandatory valet parking!!!

We really enjoyed our stay. The location of the hotel is perfect, on the beach, minutes away from downtown St Augustine. Great facilities including a large pool. You have everything you need on site. However, there are also many restaurants within walking distance from the hotel. Staff was very friendly. The biggest downside, as most guest have stated, is the valet parking. The $40 nightly fee is a bit much as well as the hassle of having to wait for someone to bring your car. In addition, you feel obligated to tip, and if you leave the property several times a day it can add up.

The hotel is very comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. The location in St. Augustine's popped Beach is great and enjoyed local dining options (ie: Salt Life across the street). There is a trolley (for a fee) that will take you to downtown St Augustine, which was convenient. I do agree with other comments that the employees of the property were not the friendliness and really kept us from having a wonderful experience. I actually liked having valet parking. It was really convenient; however, it would have been nice to have been greeted by someone that had the appearance of wanting to be there. The reception desk was pretty aloof as well. I think the hotel can do a better job training their employees on good service. Another downside is the beach renovation happening by the hotel, but that is really not the hotel's responsibility. I

Great location - near lots of restaurants. Water was cold & rough in early spring, which we expected for this region of FL. The pool looked well-maintained with some games in the nearby courtyard, and it was the best free hotel breakfast I've ever had. Roomy, serviceable suites. The service and accommodations were better than I've experienced at some higher-end hotels.

Embassy Suites - St. Augustine was a great hotel to stay at during our visit to the area. It had a large beach, heated pool, hot tub, fire pits, and restaurants close enough to walk. It was not in a very congested area, so traffic nearby was not bad. The breakfast was delicious and the housekeeping staff was very efficient. The hotel was very clean and was decorated for Christmas. Only drawbacks are valet-only parking (but they were quick) and only one elevator that was far from our room (luckily it is only three floors, so it is easy to do the stairs.) I plan to stay there in the future and highly recommend it for anyone looking to relax and enjoy the St. Augustine area.

Loved the property, the ocean views, and the extras like the daily yoga class. The complimentary breakfast was amazing. Our only issue was the mandatory valet parking at $39.99 per day. It would be better to offer it for those guests who prefer it and access to the parking garage for those who don't mind walking.

The grounds were beautiful and the beach was stunning!! The staff for the most part were wonderful, but the pool wait servers were not good at all. They didn't seem to actually want to work and make tips. We would ask for drinks and get completely ignored. That was really our only complaint. The bartenders were great though. Our kids loved the NA frozen drinks. Maybe a more broad menu for dinner would be good but not a deal breaker. Overall, we had a great time.

We liked the resort amenities, free breakfast, happy hour, and restaurants on site. It was also convenient to St Augustine and other beaches along A1A. Our only complaint would be that our room wasn’t ready at check in time and we had to wait an hour in the lobby. There was also around the clock beach construction going on, but we completely understand that it was out of the hotel’s control. We used a white noise app on our phone and that helped us sleep at night. I was thankful that our room was a partial ocean view. All in all, we did enjoy our stay!
