Casa Bella - Chic Apt- Steps to Historic District!

Summary:
A charming apartment with retro vibes situated in the Uptown neighborhood of St. Augustine. Here you'll find yourself just a short walk to many top attractions, bars, and restaurants in St. Augustine. Park your car and forget it as you wander the Oldest City!

The Space:
Swoon over Casa Bella! This chic apartment was recently renovated with modern updates while still keeping it's historical charm.

After walking up the stairs, you'll find yourself greeted with the first of 2 balconies that you'll want to relax at. Open the door to your space with a spacious living room that welcomes you to a homey stay. A smart tv is set to stream your favorite Netflix show. Off from the living room, you'll find a second private balcony where you'll most likely find yourself spending your morning and evenings at. Wake up looking out to the city with a fresh cup of joe. The galley kitchen is fully equipped with the utensils, cookware, plates, and glasses for quick meals in. Various retro style appliances are stocked including microwave, Keurig, and toaster. Choose to sit inside for your meals or enjoy the Florida weather out on the balcony with an additional dining set.

Rest easy after a long day of adventuring in the 2 cozy bedrooms. The first bedroom includes a super comfy queen bed with a closet and dresser to store all of your belongings. The second bedroom has another great queen bed.

The full bathroom with walk-in shower that is stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. And we didn't forget the fluffy white towels to dry you off, allowing you to pack light to save room for all of those Old City souvenirs.

The location of this home can't be beat! About a 5-10 minute walk to the Downtown Historic area and many top attractions such as Ripleys, Castillo de San Marcos, and more. A convenience store is just around the corner to stock up on drinks and snacks. Amazing places to eat and drink are also just a few minutes walk away from the home- Uptown Swinery, Sunday, Juniper, and more.

Great location!

3 minute walk to visitor center. Juniper Market just around the corner was perfect for breakfast. It was unusually cold the two nights we stayed, and while there is no central heat, the owners had provided space heaters in both bedrooms that kept us very comfortable. We ordered pizza one night from Five Star Pizza, and it was to our door in about 15 minutes. Very tasty.

Perfect location for St. Augustine trip

This house was so cute and was perfect for the 3 of us for a lovely weekend getaway. It was also very close to all the best attractions and restaurants in historic St. Augustine. We were able to keep our car parked at the house and walk everywhere we went, which was a blessing considering traffic is crazy during the holiday's.

My best friend and I went to St. Augustine for a girls weekend. This Vrbo was the perfect location to walk everywhere. It was clean, cute and well maintained for a historic home. I would highly recommend - and would stay here again. Thank you for everything. Can't wait to return.

Perfect hidden gem

The location of this property is tucked away and very private, yet there are so many shops and cafés located within a short walking distance. It’s also easily walkable to downtown as well, therefore we never had to use our vehicle or fight traffic. The hosts were incredibly attentive and provided very quick responses.

Great location & quant unit

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this cozy apartment in walking distance to everything. Perfect for 2 people! There were a few things I felt needed attention & recommendations. The unit wasn’t very clean, the outside porch wasn’t swept at all & the tables on the porch weren’t even wiped clean, curtains looked like they should be thrown in the trash. They are filthy & torn. Metal rods to the curtains are thrown all over the floor. There was only 2 hangers left in each closet to use, no full length mirror anywhere, lamps in the bedrooms would be a nice touch too. The closets were filled with stand up fans & bed pads which took up the whole closet & gives no space to put anything. Nowhere to put any shower toiletries when showering. A shower caddy or shelf inside would be nice otherwise you drip water everywhere to get your shampoo etc. There was a plastic shower caddy outside the shower in bad shape & should be thrown out There was no lights going up the backstairs so we had to use our phone flashlight to see. A keirug maker was available but no coffee pods so youeither have to take your own or one shouldn’t be placed there at all. Not even a tea pot or tea bags available. I’ve stayed at several vrbo’s & these are basics that they all have. Overall a very cute place with some very nice touches but needs some attention to what would make guests feel more comfortable.

Great location

We loved our stay in St Augustine! The apartment was walking distance to almost everything we wanted to do in the area. The owners were available and responsive when we needed them. The apt had a cute kitchen but bring your kuerig Kcups, there is no regular coffee pot. However, we appreciated the recommendation of the CoffeeHouse Realty Cafe across the street with delightful owners & charming atmosphere! Great breezes from the porch but not as inviting to sit out there. Overall good value in the area.

Girl’s Weekend

Enjoyed how close the house was to downtown area. Able to walk to most places we went. Cute house with comfortable beds. Had trouble with the lock on the first day which was a bit aggravating. Had to call the property manager then had to send a video trying the lock. Took over 30 minutes to get in the house. Other than trouble with the lock, house had everything we needed. Enjoyed the porch in the morning and evening time.

Cute and great location!

My teenage daughter and I were on our way to Ft Lauderdale for a concert and decided to break up the drive a little on the way down. St. Augustine was a perfect stop. Only a couple nights stay and this unit was perfect for us. So close to everything! Definitely recommend. Added bonus was all the lights up for the holidays. Beautiful this time of year!

Great location

Everything was I. Walking distance, only issue was upon check in. Check in was scheduled for 3pm but the cleaning crew only arrived at that time. We were able to access the property about 3:30 and then had to air out the house because of the bleach. Other than that great vrbo.

Convenient and cozy!

I booked this listing for my son and husband who love to visit St. Augustine. They loved that is was within walking distance to all the attractions. They thought it was very clean and comfortable. There is convenient store on the same block which was really nice. The place is not huge but is ideal for up to 4 people if your goal is to be mostly out enjoying the city. The screened porches offered a nice place to relax and enjoy coffee in the morning or wine in the evening. My husband and son were very pleased with their recent stay and would definitely book this place again!

Location!

Location was fantastic! We were able to walk to all the sights and didn’t have to deal with driving/parking. Had very good communication from the host and the directions with pictures were very helpful. Don’t think we would have found it in the middle of the night otherwise. The patios were very nice. It is cozy so best for family. The shower is a bit tight/interesting, but worked fine for us. Would suggest a power strip to each side of the bed in the main bedroom and maybe a floating shelf to place/charge phones,etc. nice quiet, safe area that is close to everything!

Proof of the Power of a Fish Eye Camera Lens

I guess I am going to be the contrarian in the reviews and suggest that interested parties look closely at the photos and information in their selection process. The unit looked nice in a cursory viewing of the photos but it is tiny and basically unlivable for a group of 4 adults. It is in a great location and if you are a guy looking to relive your college freshman days it is probably nice. Very crowded with no indoor table that will reasonably seat 4 adults, no closet doors - just curtains held in place with galvanized pipes on eyelets with masking taped ends so as not to cut anyone, doors with some knobs working but only locking with screen door hooks, mobile home size range, refrigerator & microwave with the only usable counter space in two small patches on either side of the sink, a 3x3 curbed shower and apparently a little crusty spot in the middle of one of the bed spreads. As a general contractor building new vacation rentals elsewhere in Florida I may be a bit picky. Just seems as if many in the online rental industry are taking the approach that “newly renovated” means doing the minimum work necessary and a coat of paint for good photos. We had a 4 night rental but could only stay the night of our arrival because it was so bad and ended up getting another rental in town for the remaining 3 days at significant expense but it saved our trip. The owners did note in response to my email complaint that the layout and kitchen amenities were as shown in the picture which is true, just be careful to note the wide angle lens which makes a normal size door in the pictures look like a garage door. They also noted that the retro style was an "intended amenity". So if your desire is to go back to your youth and vacation, for a few hundred dollars per night in your first "pad" with cheap silk flowers and metal nesting tables for your friends and you to eat frozen dinners while watching football, then you will be in heaven. To close, as noted above, this place gets high reviews from others so maybe our vision of retro is a well kept bungalow from the 20s and not the lifestyle we lived in our 20s. You will have to decide if you want that much retro for your hard earned dollars.

Cute modern loft

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was really modern and very nice. Kids loved it. Very close to almost anything you need. Only downside was the noise at night but that is expected when you stay right down town. We just turned on some white noise and we were good to go! Would highly recommend staying here.

Clean, Cool, Comfortable

The Casa Bella apartment was so clean and the window A/C units are amazing at how well they kept the whole space very cool. We were there during a massive heat wave and the units kept me so cool that I needed a blanket (but of course, I could control the temperature). The beds are very comfortable with super soft sheets and cozy blankets. The two patios have twinkle lights and sheer curtains which make them very romantic. The kitchen was so cute with the design and had everything we needed. This was a fantastic location with a convenience store super close and a short walk to all the fun of St. Augustine. There is an incredible restaurant within walking distance called the Castillo Craft Bar & Kitchen. The food is amazing and it's a short walk from Casa Bella. The apartment hosts were very communicative and available for anything we needed. This is a great place to stay in St. Augustine. I would definitely stay there again.

This property is in an amazing location - very walkable to Old Town attractions, closest being Ripley’s but the cobblestone streets and beautiful architecture of Old Town are only a few steps further. Dining options aplenty… there is a small kitchen but we never used anything more than the fridge and freezer for beverages because there were so many wonderful places nearby to try. I loved not having to mess with parking. Parked the car and forgot about it. No noise from the lower floor beneath the apartment - looks like it is an old fashioned garage. I would definitely stay here again if it’s available when we return to the area.
