While fairly new to Trip Advisor, we have owned and rented at Beacher's Lodge Condo/Hotel for more than 26 years. We have an overall 4.65 with our website listings. Our Oceanfront 1 Bedroom Queen Suite is a Condo/Hotel where all Queen and King units face the Ocean with Private Balconies. Total unit size is 350sq ft. Accommodates 2 Adults comfortably.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

A nice place for two people to vacation
Comlng from a medium sized home it took time to adjust to the confinement but we adjusted after a few days.I was surprised when we had a water problem ln the bathroom the main hotel told us they could not help as the condo was privately owned.We solved the problem ourselves.We arrived just as all railings around the building were being replaced so the noise level was always present.Also the pool was being.worked on so it was out for two weeks.It was nice to arise each morning and look out at the ocean.Everything worked well in the condo,good heat when needed,kltchen and utensils, Tvs all worked fine.We thank Steve and Janet for allowing us to use their place and would recommend it for a nice vacation.

Absolutely Loved It!!!
We absolutely loved our stay at Steve & Janet’s condo at Beacher’s lodge. I looked at a few of them in the same building and read the reviews and we absolutely hit a home run with our decision. I can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay and without a doubt will book this unit again in the future. They had everything we needed to make our stay more than comfortable and the access to the beach was just a short walk. The views in the evenings and the mornings are amazing. Thank you so much for welcoming us, and we look forward to staying there again next year.

Just wonderful!
This was our first visit to St. Augustine but will not be our last. The condo itself it great. i wouldn't try to sleep four people. It was tight with two but had everything we needed. Not having to carry around a key was amazing. The view from the balcony is beautiful. There were rabbits and tortoises in the dunes right outside! Everything worked, it was fully stocked. The pool was clean and never super crowded. The grills were busy but we had no problem getting to use one. The bed was sink into comfortable. Parking was available but sometimes not very close. The only complaint was the little jerk in the office. He wouldn't help me figure out where my room was. I didn't realize I had the email that told me at the time. He never bothered to explain that because the condos are individually owned, he didn't have access to their sublet information. He just sat there looking bored saying you should have an email. Over and over. Now that i know you don't ever had to go in that office, i'd go back in a second.

Fully Beach Accessible
The access to the beach was unprecedented and exactly what we were looking for with our stay in St. Augustine, and overall we did enjoy our stay. However, the condo was a bit small and cramped at times, especially for an entire week stay, but we did not spend much time in the condo itself with the exception of to sleep and shower. Also, the amenities were a bit old (the soda machine did not accept any coins OR debit cards as stated), but that did not detract from our experience as we were truly looking for the beach experience during this trip. I was surprised to see that the owner rental was shared with a hotel ownership, and was very confused at check in because it all appeared to be within one property. My only suggestion would be to point out any differences from what the listing said / showed (i.e. in the pictures for the property it shows a gas grill but in reality it is a charcoal grill, we bought food to grill but did not buy charcoal / lighter fluid, etc. and were surprised to find it not as the pictures represented and did not end up grilling as a result). Also, there were several observances re: the pool area. 1.) the adults smoking in the pool area, and drinking beverages while IN the pool even though the signs posted stated not to do so - having a small child I found this very offensive & 2/) there were several guests who "took over" the tables & chairs from the time the pool opened until it closed, which I found to be extremely rude, since there were multiple instances where they were not at the table or in the chairs for hours at a time (would leave their things to keep the spot so they could go to the beach & return to the table or the chairs). We went during the July 4th holiday and it was very busy, with a lot of children that often times did not have anywhere to put their things because of this - I think this should be a little bit more closely monitored by the staff so that the stay is comfortable for everyone.

Thank you for taking time to give your review, as we are committed to understand where we may make improvements or be able to share with our condo community your concerns. We are also committed to making every guest feel comfortable with their experience. We were concerned with your experience while at the pool and we wish you would have given us notice as we could have contacted hotel management. The BBQ grilling area has never had gas and our pictures depict charcoal grills. We stock charcoal and lighter fluid in the unit, out of children's reach. Again we wish you would have communicated with us. We have over 20 years of renting this unit and have an overall 4.5 star rating. With every review, such as you took time to write, we are encouraged and are striving harder to keep the ratings up and make improvements where needed. We recognize and respond to all our guests needs as they arise. We encourage contact on our guest's part when there is an issue and we appreciate and give you your complete privacy. Thank you, again, for your review. We hope that this helps others in their vacation planning. Sincerely, Steve & Janet

About the neighbourhood
Beacher's Lodge is on the ocean, however, are protected by a double set of sand dunes. The dunes are well established and contain a variety of natural species such as rabbit, gopher turtles, varied reptiles and bird life. Being on the second floor gives one a close, yet protected view of the daily habitat in it's natural state. Views from the first floors can be obstructed and are not entirely private. Also, being on the second floor affords the opportunity to be close to the dunes and wildlife, without the wildlife becoming uninvited guests, during the evening, when you like to hear the sound of the ocean with only the screen door separating you from it. The pool is heated for winter and is the perfect place to be during sunny summer days
