First time here and will definitely return. Breakfast is included and was actually pretty good. Beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach towels were also provided. The property is dog friendly and so is the beach.

Gorgeous location with awesome sunrise views from our balcony. Great to sleep to the crashing waves. Although it was a little chilly to swim, the beach was off the charts beautiful. No issues with parking and had a Publix for convenient item pickups. I would definitely recommend this location.

Hotel was outstanding. Rooms have a beautiful view of the beach and ocean. We particularly liked the breakfast deal where you order beforehand, call in the morning, then pickup at the office. Allowed us to eat in the comfort of our room overlooking the beach. The shuttle service was quick and very accommodating.

Everything was clean, staff was wonderful. The breakfast was good & convenient. The only negatives I have are the beach chairs & umbrellas they provided had many broken ones you had to check all of them before you take them down to the beach which is kinda a pain. The other complaint I have is this hotel has NO POOL, and I was disappointed with that but the beach is very close & easy to access. Other than that it’s a great place!! .

Breakfast in the morning was awesome! Beach chairs and umbrellas were a nice touch. An elevator to the third floor would be a plus, but I do need the exercise.

It was a nice place to stay. Oceanfront, quaint and overall comfortable. Breakfast included was very delicious. Loved hearing the ocean waves from my room, even though 1 of nights there was a rowdy group that seemed drunk and while I was trying to sleep they were being loud and kicking the portable pottys on the beach and basically being troublemakers. We had no WiFi while I was there, which was a bit inconvenient, but I was told that they had an outage that week and they were waiting for a part. And lastly, we had a little situation with the cleaning lady that I was not very happy about since she left my room with a puddle of water, after apparently messing with my dogs bowls that were on the table, not even on the floor. It wasn’t a perfect experience but I hope to go back and have a better stay and give it 5 stars instead of 4.

We did enjoy our stay, but for $600 for one night it could have been better. The room was nice and clean. The view was wonderful. But the bed was hard and the wifi didn’t work very well, hardly at all. Breakfast boxed was a nice idea but they could have gone one step further providing homemade muffins or yummy bagels instead of thawed bagels with a freezer burn taste. If I had paid $300 instead of $600 I would have been happier.

This place is fabulous. The views are absolutely spectacular. Rooms are well equipped with fridge and microwave and decent sized TV with cable access and balcony. Breakfast is available to take to your room or you can sit at the breakfast bar and soak up the glorious view of the ocean. Book a room with a king size bed. You will sleep like a baby. This place is beautifully simple, comfortable, unpretentious and unique. The staff are very helpful and want your stay to be the best it can be. The property is right on Vilano beach away from crowds with no traffic. This is our second visit and it most definitely won’t be our last as we come regularly to the States to visit close family. Nearby restaurant Beaches at Vilano has fantastic sunset views. St Augustine is the oldest town in the US and pretty to walk around. Also recommend Columbia restaurant but you must book. Cannot recommend St Augustine Beach House more highly. It’s a gem of a place.

The staff was friendly, especially Laura. Laura went out of her way to make our anniversary special. When we arrived, it was incredibly how they had a card and anniversary cupcake waiting for us. My only pet peeve was we the early check in. We checked in an hour early and they charged us $25 as an “early” check in fee. I have NEVER stayed anywhere that did that. Because of that one petty incident it bothered me the entire time staying there. The room was clean, and the views were incredible. If it weren't for the $25 early check-in fee I would recommend this property. Again, it is lovely, but they do nickel and dime you.

Spent the night here for my wife’s birthday. We got the corner suite and it was perfect. Upon check in, we received a breakfast menu for our stay. You select what you want and then call them when it’s time for breakfast and they cook it fresh!! The room was very clean and the staff was friendly. There is a book in the room with a lot of local things to do but just sitting on the balcony and watching the beach was great for us. They are right on the beach and have beach chairs and umbrellas available for use at no charge. Did I mention it was my wife’s birthday?? I mentioned it to them at check-in. Then in the morning on her birthday they included a fresh baked cake and a card for her!! I was as surprised as she was. I literally stay in 75 hotels a year and this was the best one yet!! We will be back!!

Nice location close to beach. You have to understand IT IS a 2 star hotel. Very bad scent coming from Very Very Small Toliet area, shower size ok, once out of shower, no room to dry off. Hotel is not for a family. Our room definitely not for disabled person. No elevator. Nice young man Chris is great. Oh, glass shower door not stable, had to call maintenance, came off track,,, from way certain personal in office acts, best not try to set glass, if broken she would definitely charge you. Took over 24 hours for glass shower door to be reset. We were sure to lay extra towels. Also bring air fresher for bathroom. If you have family of 4 or more go elsewhere. Not like you rent room for family of 4, they only allow 3 persons no matter age, unless the one room for 4 persons is available. They want and will require you to rent more rooms. Shame, we would stay again and bring case of air fresher just because of beach location. Better off to find house on beach than to be made to rent multiple rooms if you have more than 3 persons. You, spouse one child is one room. If two children then you and one child would need another room. MAX according to Nancy is 3 persons per room unless you rent VIP on 3rd floor its for 4 guest, only. For the price and only one real nice person which is Chris.. rent a house..

Wonderful boutique hotel right on Vilano Beach in St Augustine. Every room has a balcony with seating facing the ocean and beach. Our room was large, well appointed and equipped with everything we needed for our extended stay. Breakfast every morning was outstanding. The staff goes above and beyond to accommodate any specific needs you may have and does it with joy and a smile. A special shout out to Nancy the manager, she was a gift and made our stay truly special. We will definitely be returning and I am recommending the St Augustine Beach House to family and all my friends. This is the way to run a vacation hotel.
