    Beach view- nice
    Erica C.

    This is not a resort, I repeat, this is NOT a resort. Service- checking in was easy and Cheryl was pleasant. Upgraded us to a balcony room on the side. Other areas of service lacked somewhat from the towel hut and pool area. Rooms- small and outdated, not very clean. Sheets are SUPER rough, Bathroom was tiny. Odd smell through like must. Location- lacked. Nothing nearby but the beach and one onsite restaurant that's not ranked great. Pool is a simple and outdated one, limited seating. Overall we didn't get the restful vibe we were looking for. Really lacked for the price. I would def pay a bit more for them overall experience and amenities next time. Confident to say we will never be back.

    I'm only giving 2 stars because of the beach access & pool. The room was horrible. The first floor room had tile floors that were filthy. My husband wiped the bathroom floor because it was damp & the towel was black. The place is cute, staff was friendly. But the walls are paper thin in the hotel room. I thought someone left their phone in our room because the ringing was so loud. Nope, it was the room next door. I could hear them like they were in our room. The doors were thin & you could hear everything. People leaving their rooms, and slamming doors. Wheels from luggage in the hallway, cleaning people's carts. We were up all night. Not to mention the air conditioning which sounded like a jet plane taking off. There was a convention at the hotel, so people were outside of our room late into the night talking & drinking. We had to knock on the window to get them to leave. I'm sure they had no idea we could hear them. The pool was great & the semi private beach was amazing. We napped there by day since we were exhausted. It was a great location. 10-15 minutes to downtown. Walking distance to mini golf & ice cream. Hopefully they will remodel the rooms.

    Great place to stay on the beach and the prices are great too. I think the thing I loved most about this place was the view from our room. Even though we were on the side of the building we had a partial view of the ocean. The patio off the room is great. The room is great and the bed and pillows are super comfy. The bathroom is little small but it did the job. The pool area is nice and has a bar to help quench your thirst. There is a gazebo and walkway right outside the pool area for access to the beach. The employees here are very friendly especially the bartender I encountered at the pool area. Thanks for the amazing pina coladas. We enjoyed this place a lot and we were looking forward to eating at their restaurant Santiago's after we realized this was one of the places I had saved on Yelp and it was literally inside the hotel. We didn't end up eating there though because it was empty and we were in the mood to go to a vibey place with music but from their reviews it looks great. I have no complaints about this place. It's conveniently located and has plenty of free parking and great amenities. Thanks for the great stay. We'll see you again the next time. Enjoy :)

    This is the second year in a row I have attended the Give Kids the World Village annual fundraiser at this hotel on St. AUGUSTINE Beach. It is a fantastic hotel with wonderful staff who all pitch in to make this event a joy to attend. The hotel is very beach with plenty of beach style decorations and theming. They have a big gift shop on their lobby that sells all types of beach related gear and clothing. There is also a restaurant in the lobby for dining. Outside, there is a nice pool and a tiki bar, with plenty of tables for outside dining. I plan on attending this event for many years to come, and I also plan on supporting this hotel.

    Walked right to the beach and saw these two chairs waiting for us.

    The service here was absolutely amazing. There must be something in the water because every single worker I ran into had the most positive energy I've ever experienced! The rooms are a little old timey but with great water pressure. I would stay here again you can walk right on to the beach and also 15 minute drive to the main downtown center of St Augustine depending on traffic.

    Beautiful sunrise from the balcony

    Wow so many Karen's in these comments. The resort is great! You can easily look at pictures of the place before you book to see what you're getting into. They're not hiding anything. The room was spotless. The walls are a little thin but that's most hotels. The restaurant downstairs isn't the best, but we enjoyed it and the convenience of having an option to eat in our hotel. The property itself is well maintained. The heated pool was fantastic. The staff were super friendly. Would stay again! I don't understand all of these bad reviews.

    Shrimp and Grits
    Kristen M.

    The resort is right on the beach and there is a short walk over a little bridge which is quite convenient from the hotel pool. The pool area includes a Tiki bar that overlooks the pool, property and the ocean. The exterior colors of the property are so vibrant and the pool bar has a Caribbean vibe. The pool water was so nice and warm, and stays open late. The hotel itself is ultra clean and the service was very efficient. The food at the restaurant was amazing! For breakfast, I got the Avocado Toast with eggs. For dinner, we got the Shrimp Po Boy, Shrimp and Grits and the Ceasar salad along with two different desserts. How amazing the New Orleans flavors! We were pleasantly surprised! We will definitely return.

    Great view from our 5th floor balcony.

    I would give this place 5 stars for location, 4 stars for service and 3 stars for the room itself. It is not really a resort but an older motel that was re-branded as a Guy Harvey Resort. If you are looking for a beach-front accommodation that won't break the bank, this might be ok. But don't expect a luxury resort. We reserved a 5th floor ocean view king and the view was awesome. Personally I would not want 1st, 2nd or 3rd floor room looking out to the pool area as you would have no privacy. 4th & 5th floor overlooking ocean are fine. But I would not want any other rooms here as they look out over the parking lots & neighboring buildings. The room itself was small & balcony is small but serviceable. The king room has a table w/ pull out lower level you can use to eat on & 2 bar stool/chairs that slide under. In addition to a kurig coffee maker it also had a mini-fridge & small microwave. The bathroom was small with a small walk-in shower. The room was clean and bed was comfy. This is a pet friendly place & you could hear dogs barking when you were in the hall but we could not heat them when we were in our room. There is a restaurant on the property but we did not eat there. Additionally they had a bar & grill out by the pool that generally shut down by around 6 or 7 pm. They had live music in the afternoons that also ended by 6-6:30ish. You can rent 2 beach chairs w/umbrella for $40/day.

    Ocean view from room 520. The pool is at the end of the building.

    Just checked in for a couple night stay. We won the stay at a silent auction at Endless Summer Run at Anastasia State Park. Always good to help a nonprofit organization. We have a partial ocean view with a small balcony and a couple of chairs. Perfect place for a glass or two of wine while enjoying the St Augustine Beach weather. More updates to follow. Plan to enjoy their happy hour in the restaurant (4 to 7). Also plan to eat dinner here - I'm thinking shrimp and grits.

Don't mistake St Augustine Beach for St Augustine Florida. They're two different places about 20 mi apart. I'm not saying St Augustine Beach is not a good place, it's just not a great place to visit in the winter. Prices here were significantly lower than in St Augustine.

We -- along with six other families -- were left waiting in the lobby for nearly two hours past check-in, with staff unable or unwilling to provide a realistic estimate of when a room would be ready. Simply stating that the hotel was at full occupancy is not an excuse -- it is a failure of planning and management. This situation reflects inefficient and lazy management. Late checkouts were clearly oversold without regard for incoming guests, and there was no urgency, accountability, or proactive communication. Guests were left in limbo while management avoided taking responsibility for the problem they created. For a Courtyard/Marriott property, this level of operational disorganization and disregard for guests is unacceptable. We will not be returning and would caution others to reconsider staying here if timely check-in matters.

The ocean view was a joke as you had to literally lean over the railing to see the ocean. Checking in the lobby was clean and valet was accommodating. Unfortunately that's the extent of good things I have to say about this hotel. Walking in the room had a musty smell. The bathroom was dirty with random hairs all over. There was no dresser or any way to put your clothing away except the 4 hangers. We called guest services and they said they would bring a dresser up. What they brought was a nightstand that looked like it was bought off Temu. After going back down to the front desk we were told that there are no rooms with any dressers and we could not get any additional hangers. Furniture was in bad condition and definitely not worth the price they were charging. The room was not cheap, but it felt as if we were staying in a Motel 6.

The owner renovated the inside so that it's got modern amenities and sleeps six people comfortably. The first time we visited the place, it was like an awakening. It was the PERFECT place for my husband and I to get have our wedding. Of course, we had 85 guests, so the ceremony had to be elsewhere, but this was perfect for the reception. It was the perfect size for everyone to move around freely and still have a small dance floor. Also the price is crazy good. You will NOT find a more reasonable deal in town. Bring in your own vendors and you can create a fabulous wedding on a modest budget. I'm not just saying that because I am the proud bride. I'm saying it because it's a recession and fabulous doesn't normally come cheap. And I don't throw the word FABULOUS around breezily. I'm deadly serious. Anyway, you get the place in all it's charm for three days and two nights. Then you can rent it for an extra day for a good price. And really, you just have to get rid of your trash because they clean and do laundry for you. How is that not perfect? Go there because it made my very special day amazing.

When originally searching for a wedding venue we had a few must-haves, which included a location with historical character, in driving distance from Orlando, and located in a town where out-of-state visitors could enjoy exploring. And so we focused in on St. Augustine. I had a good gut instinct about the Sanchez House from the moment I discovered them online, and I must shamelessly admit that I stalked the websites of every couple who had their wedding at the Sanchez House. We quickly booked a visit to the Sanchez House, because they are only able to hold 12 weddings a year due to being zoned in a residential area. We met with the owner, Blake, who shared with us the history of the home, gave tips from other weddings held on the premise, and shared some of his favorite vendors. When we experienced the venue in person, we fell even more in love with the charm that was evident around every corner of the house! The SH offers a brick courtyard, artificial turf front lawn, large gathering room, dining room, kitchen, office, two bedrooms, small one-car garage, and an attic. Not only can you hold your wedding events at the house, but you are able to stay there, as well. This allowed us and our bridal party, 6 in total, to stay at the house. So convenient! After booking the Sanchez House, we decided to extend our celebration into an entire weekend. Our events spanned from 50 to 90 guests, and SH accommodates them comfortably. The house is in an excellent location by the bay and walking distance to historic St. George Street. At the SH, we were able to select our own vendors. We held our ceremony in the courtyard which transformed to the dance floor. The front lawn was donned with a heated tent and tables on the coldest Florida winter day. It even snowed lightly! Guests had the chance to mingle throughout the house in the dining room, gathering room, and balcony. I would note that the parking around the SH can be challenging, but we gave plenty of parking options for guests through our wedding website and social media, and suggested our guests to stay at one of the nearby hotels or bed & breakfasts. I highly recommend the Sanchez House for any couple looking for an intimate St. Augustine venue!

The only thing that could possibly make it premier is the granite countertops and new cabients. Everything else is old and dated. Other people in our party stayed in other premier units that were so much nicer. The front bedroom blinds are broken, and we had to put up a sheet to keep out light at night. It still wasn't very dark. The oven door is slightly open when closed, so it's hard to bake anything. The kitchen tools and supplies are very outdated and of poor quality and mismatched. There were two coffee makers - an old one and a brand new one on the counter top -- I had to put one in a closet to get it out of the way. The closets are full of old stuff, so there's not much room for stuff like suitcaeses, etc. The blender is cracking so we could not use it. The sheets and towels are of very poor quality. The television in the front bedroom is tiny and we could never get it to work. All of the batteries were dead in the remotes, so we had to go buy some and replace them. Everything is limited -- one garbage bag, one small roll of toliet paper, and super cheap salt and pepper shaker. Most Airbnbs have the basic supplies to at least get you through the first couple of days. This one did not. If this had been labeled as a "classic" unit and was at that price point, I would have given it a 4. The unit itself could be very nice, but the owners would have to invest a little bit of money. The view is wonderful from the balcony, but the furniture is quite cheap and way to crowded. I would not recommend anyone renting this until until either it is reclassified as a classic unit and the price is lowered or until the owner brings it up to par with the premier units. The rest of the property is very nice, and the beach in this area is fantastic.
