Peaceful,1950's Charm, dog friendly, walk to beach
Book ahead, we had to stay somewhere else Saturday night as they were full. Loved walking short distance to Vilano beach, the pier, and restaurants. 1950's vibe, not fancy. Lots of room and storage space in kitchen area. Had larger freezer, refrigerator so we could keep dog's food frozen.

We enjoyed our stay at the Magic Beach Hotel! The bed and bedding were VERY comfortable! We would love to stay there again in the future when visiting our family in St Augustine. We hope it that it is there for many years to come. The bathroom looked original which was charming and well taken care of despite of the shower being small.
The only quirk I’d say is less than ideal is the dampness that most likely comes with being by the ocean. We will see you again next year! Thank you😊

St Augustine
We like to stay here as it is near the beach. And a nice Publix. Drive to historic area of St Augustine is short. No breakfast. Old fashioned but clean. Rooms painted fun colors.

Needs updates
The hotel and room were clean, just need updating. It's a good thing I was traveling alone since the mattress was very well used... sagging in the middle

Great but no heat
Very cozy motel. Retro and unique. Room needs to have heat added as we were there during a cold snap and due to no heat, it was hard to sleep

Terrible bathroom
The bathroom is so tiny, no towel bars. I fell in the bathroom and broke my ankle. I missed all the tours I had booked and missed seeing the lights.
If you are elderly or not in the best physical health do not stay here.
St. Augustine rescue team were extremely professional and very kind

Comfy but in need of handicapped parking
Wonderful Jamaican woman warmly welcomed is. Only drawback not much handicapped parking. Travelling with two disabled sons alone, that made it a bit hard.
