What guests say
9.3 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 136 guest reviews
Bayfront Marin House earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment for its prime historic St. Augustine waterfront location, charming B&B atmosphere, and attentive service. However, a handful of guests flag practical drawbacks — off-site parking, tight room sizes, and at least one notably hard mattress — worth considering before booking. Those who embrace its boutique, old-world character tend to leave wishing they had stayed longer.
