The location is great. The view is just ok because there’s another hotel between this one and the beach. The beach was beautiful. The staff was ok. The hotel and rooms needs some serious upgrading. What made me not want to ever stay here again? The walls are super thin!! Not only did we hear whole conversations from the couple next door but we were woken up by their amorous noises. Not appropriate for children!
Need a place to stay for an overnight in St. Augustine. The Magic Beach Hotel fit the bill. Its classic vibe was cute and gave us exactly what we needed. The kitchenette area allowed us to prepare what we needed and the access to the island as well as St Augustine was very convenient! Would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay. It was perfect for our family and just a few steps to the beach makes it a wonderful location. While it may not have all the upgraded amenities that your upscale hotels offer, the nostalgia of this place was what we enjoyed for the price during Spring Break. Our family doesn't need fancy to have a great time. It was perfect. It had a kitchenette, bathroom and 2 bedrooms with plenty of space to relax. We hope we are able to stay here again.
At first arrival the room seemed "clean" - hard to say as it is so worn down.
We spent the evening out and upon returning I was getting ready for bed. when I pulled the bedspread off the bed - the blanket was covered in long black hair on both sides. There were several strands on both sides. It was 10:30 PM so I just rolled up the blanket and took it to the front desk.
I complained to the woman at the desk (ironically with long black hair). She said, "And you want what?". That's correct. No apology. No offer to have the bed remade. Nothing.
I said a "clean blanket to start". She looked surprised and I was put off - overly probably because I was tired. So I added, "and to talk to someone about some kind of reimbursement".
She radioed someone and brought me a blanket. I couldn't hear what was said, but she said to me, "You can talk to someone at checkout." Well, we checked out at 6:30 am and it was the same woman.
We like quirky places to stay - but clean is a necessity. There were holes in the curtain, the rooms were very small and the lights were so bright. Not restful or relaxing. The rooms are non-smoking but there are ashtrays on all the tables outside the rooms so people are smoking right outside your door. I wouldn't call in a no-smoking property.
The team at check-in was very nice and the motel is steps from the beach.
Checked in with Ashley and she was the best let us borrow her personal chairs to view the sunset because the stores were closing very awesome everything at the hotel was as expected.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Positives: location to the beach is excellent; room decor is nicely done; front office staff was nice; they did clean the room
Challenges: room smelled strongly of bleach; the insulation was older so not as strong and the floor felt damp, probably due to humidity; the towels were rough and fairly thin, and we only had 1 bath towel but didn’t realize it until after we were back from a concert later at night; parking is tight but that’s to be expected in the St. Augustine area.
