It's a super location to walk everywhere, head downtown via San Marco or walk through the neighborhood and the Castillo. The water is at the end of the street!
A note on ambiance: It is a quiet neighborhood albeit connected to a very busy tourist town. You will hear people, cars, the cannon fire at the fort, church chimes and the occasional trolley in the daytime. This includes the Firestone during their regular hours.

The little Retreat is a small studio suite with big airy feels and a romantic hidden vibe. Updated fixtures and an a-plus feel with the tiled shower and artwork. It has window AC unit. There's also a standing space heater for those that can never be too "warm" during the winter months. The space is not spacious for those that may be packing heavy but perfect for a short and convenient stay.
Free street parking is available; Do not park between the house and the stop sign. No Parking at the home. Parking card to city garage is also available. There is a pet fee of $25 cash per dog that must be left on a visible counter for cleaners (limit 2 pets)

Great day

My son and I traveled to Saint Augustine for a fourth grade field trip. This was centrally located annd easy to meet up with the other classmates. We walked everywhere that weekend. It is a small room but has everything you need for a comfortable weekend stay. There is a great coffeehouse around the corner. We walk to for breakfast. An access to the parking garage was great.

Perfect Location

This is quite a gem, located in a perfect location in the center of historic St Augustine. Although it is located right next to a Firestone, it did not bother us since we were out all day and they close at night. The neighborhood is quaint for nightly walks. The bed is comfortable and the room is a studio, small but met all our needs. It was clean and ready when we arrived. I was amazed how the room was arranged with everything from a sink, microwave to fridge. Our host kept us informed every step of the way! We gave it a four because there is a upstairs and you can’t help but hear them going up and down the stairs late at night and the walls seemed a bit thin as we could hear them talking. The air conditioner fan for that unit was right outside our window and kept on going on and off. It didn’t bother me as much as it did my husband, who is a light sleeper. These may not bother most. The location trumps all. I would stay here again.

Perfect St. Augustine Overnight

Just a little studio apartment in a great location. There are restaurants and bars and shopping all within a two minute walk. It took us about 10 minutes to walk into Old Town St. Augustine. Room has a small refrigerator and a Keurig so it's all you need.

Great stay in St. Augustine!!!

Room was exactly as described. (Clean and Quiet) Our host Huyen Le was awesome and very responsive to any questions we had. Room is conveniently located with about a 5 to 10 minute walk to historic downtown which was very nice. Saved us a lot on parking. Would stay again!

Amazing Stay In Uptown St. Augustine

Our stay at the Uptown Retreat was amazing! Walking distance to everything in uptown and steps away from downtown! Nice and quiet and super comfortable! Awesome shower and nice a private in the back of the divided home. We loved having the parking pass for the downtown garage at Cordova Street whenever we couldn’t find street parking so we could save $ on parking for downtown St. Augustine. The host is so kinda and responsive and we will definitely be returning here or her other properties!

Cute Little Place

Enjoyed our stay in St. Augustine! Location was great, very walkable to attractions, restaurants, etc.. It is very small, but comfortable. We were in town only one night, so worked well for us. Parking is limited/tight on the street. We used the owner-provided parking pass for the parking garage which is about 1/2 mile away but a nice walk. Owner very nice and communication was quick and thorough during our stay.

Great Anniversary Getaway

We had the best time in St. Augustine. The space was exactly what we were looking for in our little retreat. The proximity to all of the local attractions was one of the reasons why we chose this place. We will definitely be back!
