GUY HARVEY RESORT ON SAINT AUGUSTINE BEACH, St. Augustine

The property is located on A1A, a half-mile from Segway Tours By the Sea, within 5 km of St. Augustine Amphitheater and Anastasia State Park, and 19 km from Marineland. The historic downtown district is an easy drive away, or you can use the free shuttle from the hotel if you purchase a trolley tour ticket. Several restaurants, including Jack's BBQ and Mango Mango's Caribbean Grill & Bar, are about 1 km away. The area is walkable for beachside dining and shopping, but most attractions and downtown sites require a car or trolley.

Guest rooms range from standard doubles to spacious oceanfront options with private balconies on floors 3 to 5. Select rooms include a separate bunk-bed area for families. All rooms have air conditioning, heating, carpeted floors, and a seating area. Bathrooms are private with shower/tub combos; some have walk-in showers. The property is older and room decor varies - some units feel dated or compact, particularly lower-floor rooms facing the parking lot. Soundproofing is minimal; noise from hallways and neighboring rooms can be noticeable. Microwaves are available in most room types except oceanfront/pool-front rooms, which have a shared microwave on the first floor.

The on-site restaurant offers a full breakfast menu and dinner service with dishes like seafood and local specialties. A poolside tiki bar (seasonal opening times) provides drinks and light bar food, with live music on certain evenings. The main bar at Santiago's serves a range of drinks and cocktails. Guests with dietary restrictions can request special menus. Breakfast is not included in room rate and is available for purchase. For those wanting additional variety, several casual restaurants are within a 1 km walk along the beachfront.

The pool area features a fenced perimeter, shallow end, and pool towels provided free of charge. It is unheated but open all year. Adjacent is a sun terrace with ample seating. The beach access is directly through the pool area, with a rinse station. Daily live music or temporary art galleries are offered free of charge. The fitness centre is free for guests. In addition, a beachfront location allows for easy walks, sand play, and wildlife spotting (turtles in dunes). A tiki bar at the pool serves drinks and light bites but has seasonal hours and may close early.

The property offers a range of practical services: a laundry room on the first floor ($2 per wash/dry), meeting/banquet facilities for a charge, and daily housekeeping. Accessibility features include wheelchair-accessible routes, raised toilets, grab rails, and Braille signage. Pets are allowed in all rooms, with a $50/night fee (first two nights). Check-in/out is at 16:00/11:00. Accepted payment methods include major cards (Amex, Visa, MC, Discover). The lobby houses a gift shop with Guy Harvey merchandise. A 24-hour front desk handles luggage storage and general inquiries.
