Best experience I've had yet visiting St. Augustine, wish I'd found this place sooner. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Called ahead because arrival was going to be after desk closed and had no problems getting into my room when I arrived at 3am. Great area, close to everything but not so close that you heard the crowds downtown. Very cozy and relaxing vibe the entire time. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!
This was absolutely one of the best places we stayed during our three-week road trip through the southern states.
It's a small, cozy place with a unique atmosphere that makes you feel less like a guest and more like you're visiting a generous relative.
We couldn't recommend this place more and would happily stay here again!
Didn't have extra sheets in the lake house, floors seemed like they could have use a good sweeping and mopping, it was a great location for downtown, plenty of space in the lake house, just really needed more towels, sheets, coffee and cream, usually the first evening we get there we use the laundry detergent provided, coffee, cream, salt and pepper till we get to the store in the morning none of that was available. I would definitely stay here again though I'll just make sure I've got that stuff on hand.
Very walkable spot to the unique historical St. Augustine. Wear decent walking shoes. Clean room, food was good, nice to sit in the rockers on the 2nd floor after a long day. Scenic spot. Easy parking!
Everything was great except I took a bad fall walking down the steep stairs at night and didn’t see the last step so it would have been good for the stairs to have some sort of lighting right on the steps or at the bottom to prevent falls
A real gem. Unique touches from lemonade, coffees, happy hour, cognac, snacks. Clean, beautifully maintained, sitting areas, antiques, pool and historic charm, comfy room and bed.
1894 house was a delight. We were not on the main property but the 1894 house a short walking distance or drive. It was a very homey feeling staying there for a birthday celebration. Walkable to the historic area or trolley stop. Staff at the inn were very friendly.
Friendly, helpful staff. Plenty of refreshments and tourist information in the common area, both day and night. In a great location (close to museums & restaurants). Strong wi-fi in our room, and good TV streaming although the TV could have been larger. Water pressure in the shower was good. My only criticism is the shower was in a jacuzzi tub and a bit tricky to step in and out of. Also the floor of the shower was a little slippery so not ideal for older guests. Otherwise, a great stay!
Great property. Enjoyed the breakfast and cocktail hour. Also enjoyed the bikes. Not too far of a ride to the lighthouse and beach. Easy walk into the heart of things. Lots of thoughtful touches in the cottage and available in the main space. Would definitely stay again.
I loved its charming character. The pool needed some minor cleaning, but it was nice and warm. I was staying alone, and after 10pm the concierge closes, and it’s a very dark area with low illumination. I felt incredibly vulnerable, but I did not have any bad or harmful experiences. They offer so much when they are open, and the room was very clean for me.
The Inn was charming. It had a beautiful courtyard that was welcoming. Located within walking distance to the historical sites. They offered breakfast and a social / happy hour as well as desserts as part of their amenities. They also offered parking. I would definitely stay again.
What a lovely experience & excellent service that was provided by this family & their staff! Everyone really went to great lengths to make our stay comfortable, welcome, & safe. Wonderful for a couple, ladies weekend & small groups! Thank you for a great stay & looking forward to returning! KS
Absolutely fabulous stay! They have so many additional complimentary things than their delicious breakfasts every morning. In the evening they have a cocktail hour with hors d’oeuvres and beer or wine. Then later a dessert hour with some of the best cupcakes, coffee and tea. There’s also bikes that you can request and use for the day. Just a wonderful experience all around!
Great stay in St Augustine’s oldest and historic B&B/hotel. Yes, it’s old, but it is kept up well. The staff is amazing—helpful and friendly. Close to everything. A different breakfast each day. Unique, charming, friendly. The atmosphere is conductive to guests talking and sharing experiences which was fun. One couple told us they been coming almost every year for well over a decade. We would go back too.
We absolutely LOVED the St Francis and would DEFINITELY recommend it highly. We will stay there again! It is in the historic district, very walkable , and the amenities were amazing! A little bit of a hidden gem with free parking! 💖
Delightful small inn surrounding a lush peaceful garden and pool area. Friendly hosts. Inviting breakfast and lounge areas. Nicely appointed. We very much enjoyed our visit.
The staff was very helpful, kind ans friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. The old building is lovely along with happy hour, dessert and perfect breakfast. Also a cream Sherry nightcap!
My wife and I spent 3 nights in July 2024. On property parking is a definite perk. The my wife and I fell in love with St. Francis as soon as we arrived. Beautiful courtyard and quaint inn. The breakfast was good and coffee was also great and always available. Everyone was so nice and helpful with directions and ideas of what to do for our first visit to St. Augustine. A heads up… it’s really hot in the summer obviously but the gnats love to harass you just about anywhere you go in St. Augustine. The Old Town Trolley has a stop nearby and you get can tickets from the inn. So it made it that much easier to get around. We had Lilly’s room because that’s what was available at the time. It’s not too big but for a couple that’s not planning on spending too much time in the room it was perfect. Whenever we decide to visit St. Augustine we’ll definitely be staying here again.
