We really enjoyed our stay!! Loved the location!! Walking distance to everything and then just a short drive to Vilano beach! Big back patio and very clean home! We also enjoyed riding the bikes around the neighborhood! Thanks for the snacks! Would definitely stay again!
Historic home and location. Steps from the tram depot and Ripley's. Rocking chairs on the front porch to relax in. Home was very clean and decorated with period pieces. Comfortable beds with quality linens. Lots of amenities provided. Hosts are very kind and responsive. We enjoyed our stay and plan to visit again.
We enjoyed our visit to Casa Verde 1885! It is a charming and very well decorated house. It was very clean and had everything needed to make our stay comfortable. Location is great! Quiet neighborhood with easy walking distance to the Historic District. We appreciated the lovely outdoor patio with shaded and sunny seating areas. Wish we could’ve spent more time out there, but too much to do in St Augustine!TV works well and had lots of viewing options. Steven was very responsive to our requests. We highly recommend Casa Verde 1885!
Communication with the host was spot on! House was perfect just as shown in listing. Loved the outdoor area! You can tell the host takes pride in the place and care about the guest!
