St. Augustine, great short stay
We hadn’t been to St. Augustine in years and were not sure what to expect. Beach access and trolley access to historic downtown was very convenient. Lots of toys and games for the kids and it was pet friendly! Great experience.

Cute beach beach boutique hotel
Cute boutique hotel near the beach. Loved the eclectic and modern decor. They’ve done a great job of bringing an older Florida motel up to par. The staff was really friendly and the rooms were clean.
