The map may not show the correct location, so make sure to look at the address before booking. There is a ton of free parking in front of the building. Please be aware that this is not a newly built, luxurious building. Folks come back year after year for the beautiful beach access and views, oceanfront patios, and heated pools, but if you're looking for a luxurious stay we suggest searching elsewhere as the condo itself is dated. We have a $50 pet fee per pet policy, with only a 2 max pet limit. Please let us know if you plan on bringing your furry friends and we can add it to your bill. ***BUILDING PROJECTS*** Beginning in October 2023 and lasting until the end of December 2023, Beacher's Lodge is expecting to have a few more projects being completed. 1. Crescent Beach Dune Renourishment - Mid November to December 2023: Crescent Beach will be scheduled for a dune renourishment project. While we await further details, please be aware that this project may affect our beach access. Beacher's lodge may have to shut down their beach access. We are hopeful that the boardwalk will remain open to be able to guide you past the work area. However, please understand that we will be impacted, and there might be sand trucks working in front of our property during this time. The more the information becomes available, we will be sure to pass along. - Work for Crescent beach is set for early to mid November. We heard an estimate of around 11/9 but that date is not set. - The work schedule will be Monday through Saturday from 6:30 am to 7pm. - They believe the project will be quick moving and anticipate being in front of our property directly for only a couple of days. During these 2-3 days our boardwalk and access to the beach will have to remain closed for working hours (6:30 am to 7pm). They cannot provide the exact dates of this closure, so we will have to provide that information as soon as it is provided to us. - They will be closing the beach parking lot next door to us for the duration of the time they will be working on the beach in our area and will not allow pedestrian traffic through or use of the county beach boardwalk, so this will not be an option when our beach access is closed. While they stated they would not be parking heavy equipment there, they do intend to use this area next door for staging. - They will be adding another dune directly in front of the existing dunes and the height is approximately 13' in height. They will plant sea oats in this newly formed dune. - The purpose of this additional dune is more sacrificial, they say there is a 20% chance each year that a storm will come and wash away this sand, but the aim is to keep it from washing away the remainder of the existing dunes behind this new sand dune. - Because our boardwalk extends 50' past the dunes, we do not expect our beach stairs to be impacted, they will put dirt underneath the boardwalk and around the pilings. - There will be large equipment - dump trucks and excavators. This equipment will be noisy. They will bring vibration detection equipment to make sure that the vibrations do not exceed the allowed threshold, but we may hear some noise and/or vibrations during the working hours. 2. Property Maintenance Tasks - October 23rd, 2023 to December 22nd 2023: Beacher's Lodge will have Complete Property Services return this fall to finish a punch list of items on property. In addition to the punch list, there is a small list of change order requests that will need to be approved and could potentially fill in some of the timeline provided below. From 10/23/23 until possibly 12/22/23 there will be workers present on property Monday- Friday, 8am to 6pm. There will be no property work performed on Saturdays and Sundays, there will be no work on Thanksgiving Thursday or Friday and we hope to be completed prior to the Christmas holiday week. In the timeline below you will see specific weeks where we will be working on repainting the yellow transition stripes at the end of each alcove. When this work was done in early spring, there were too many visitors and people stepped and tracked through this yellow paint. Beacher's Lodge is requesting that we restrict occupancy of our condo during the specified week for the floor our condo is on. There will be grinding initially to remove the existing coatings and the yellow product will be reapplied and will need adequate time to dry. 10/23 - 10/27: Initial setup and general public areas, ground level items like cracks, paint bubbles etc. 10/30 - 11/3: 4th floor Occupancy Restriction to paint alcove step up yellow paint, stucco patches on ground floor 11/06 - 11/10: 3rd floor Occupancy Restriction to paint alcove step up yellow paint , stucco patches 11/13 - 11/17: 2nd floor Occupancy Restriction to paint alcove step up yellow paint , stucco patches 11/20 - 11/22: General public areas - Public area items IE cracks, stucco etc. 11/23 - 11/24: Thanksgiving break 11/27 - ?: General public areas, done before Christmas break or sooner. We can't wait to host you, and if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

If your looking for a grandiose stay this is not for you! Plain, simple rooms at a really nice location just steps from the beach. Responsive and caring host!

Our family comes to the beach for ocean views and this place does not disappoint! The condo was quiet, the grounds were clean, location is excellent. It is a small place, but had comfortable bed and furniture. Perfect for the 2 nights we were there.

Everything at condo was great! Bed was super comfortable. Had a couple issues and Betsy addressed them right away! The views from the condo are fantastic, especially for the cost! This is our second trip to Beacher’s Lodge and we’ll definitely be back! The grounds are clean and well taken care of. We love St. Augustine! Between Old Town, the shopping districts and beach you have everything you need!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The location is great and close to the city of St. Augustine, which is where we spent a lot of time. We also enjoyed being so close to the Moses Creek conservation area, which we used for hiking and running. The condo was clean and was exactly the venue we needed. The view of the ocean and proximity to the beach are also huge pluses. We hope to come back sometime soon!

I read all reviews before renting. Had I seen a review such as this, I would have weighed my options much differently. If your goal is to simply be next to the beach, this is the perfect spot. It has a beautiful view of the ocean and you are only a flight of stairs and a walkway away from the sand. You will wake up, open the blinds in the living area, and see the water lapping the sand. At night, you can hear that sound as you sit outside and wind down.
However, if your goal is to feel fully relaxed and rejuvenated, this place is probably not for you.
Pros-
Ocean view and walking distance to beach
Cons-
1. I had to ask for check in information. Maybe I am used to the other rental site-that information is usually sent as soon as payment has been secured. Initially, they did not find my name. When it was found, the information was sent when I was on the road traveling to St. Augustine. *Something that I would have liked to have known prior to leaving Georgia-only 1 towel is provided per person.
2. The air conditioner in the living area remains at 86 and when I inquired it was stated that the one in the bedroom would cool it down. I was told that a fan would be brought the next day, it was not. I did find one (after digging in a closet). It was very dirty. Note-I initially did not want to dig in that closet bc it is the mirrored closet pictured in the bedroom. It now only has one sliding door and that door does not easily slide back and forth. I had to maneuver it out carefully as to not disrupt that one door.
3. The porch screen and glass door DO NOT lock. So, if you have children, this is a safety issue. I did notify the owner. Nothing was done nor did they seem too concerned about my concerns.
4. This is very bare bones. Know that you are simply getting a place to sleep when necessary. Unfortunately, it is not comfortable to just sit back and relax.
5. All of the kitchen and bathroom installations are outdated or have something broken.
I will add, I am a very easy to please person. So, a review like this was difficult for me to write. However, rentals are not cheap. I do believe, with some tender loving care this particular rental could be great.

The oceanfront location was great but the unit needs repairs. Cost for a one night stay with a pet was high, especially given all the challenges. We still got charged "full throttle". Master mirrored closet door falling off hinges and glass broken, dishwasher broken, sand on floor, LR lamp broken, bed, uggh.....Trying to be kind here....stairs to get into place would be a challenge for many...Complex was great for families. beautiful pool, etc.
