    Well, we thought our first visit to the Bayfront Marin House Bed & Breakfast was great, but our second visit was even better! Mary and the rest of the staff are still doing an outstanding job; and the friendliness and attention to detail by the owners, Mike and Sandy, have really put this Inn at the top of our favorite list! The entire place oozes relaxation -beautiful landscaping; wonderful verandas and porches that provided a quiet & peaceful setting with a spectacular view of the bay; a clean and comfortable room with a large bathroom that included a Jacuzzi; and a delicious breakfast each morning to top it all off. We love staying at B&B’s and this one has it all! Keep up the great work folks, because we will be back! We highly recommend it!

    I have stayed in St. Augustine on at least 12 occasions. This is by far the best accommodations in St. Augustine. You have the best of both worlds here - Bayfront with a beautiful view and a short walk to the historic area. The Inn itself has great history! The rooms are elegant and if it is romance you seek, this is the place...or a girls getaway, this is the place. Private baths in each room and the jacuzzi tubs...ahhhh. The rooms are spotless! The staff is AWESOME - each and everyone of them! The owners are extremely friendly. The gourmet breakfast was the best I have ever had and be sure not to miss the complimentary Cocktail Hour! I particularly enjoyed the white sangria. You have your choice of having your gourmet breakfast in the courtyard outside, under their gazebo or inside the quaint dining room area. We enjoyed the courtyard. Just watching the sun or the moon over the bay is so relaxing. I always enjoy a nice cup of decaf tea before bedtime, and they even had that available! I would highly recommend the Bayfront Marin House!! I am planning a return trip at Thanksgiving time! Every time I return to St. Augustine, I know where I will stay! I am so confident you will enjoy your stay here, I am even posting my name ... Beverly Snyder, Florida resident.

    We stayed there the night of our wedding. Everyone went out of their way to do whatever you asked. They even gave us a parking pass for my parents who were staying there. The breakfast was good and the rooms were beautiful. Happy hour from 5-7. Great Deal!!! We will definitely be back!!!

    We stayed here for our Honeymoon. The room we stayed in was gorgeous (the forrester suite), the staff was extremely helpful and nice. The location is right down town so we were able to walk to everything. The breakfasts were delicious and they give you a full plate unlike most hotel breakfasts. We were beyond pleased with our experience and WILL be staying here on our next visit to St. Augustine.
