    This is our second stay at Bayfront Westcott B & B and it will not be our last. This time my husband and I came for a long weekend anniversary (15 years) and birthday (not saying how many years!) celebration and have truly enjoyed ourselves. The accommodations are unsurpassed. Each room is exquisitely appointed, with a careful eye for aesthetics and comfort. We stayed in the uniquely charming Allison's Loft. The hospitality has been warm and attentive and the food lovingly prepared. My special breakfast requests were honored and presented beautifully. It will be hard to leave and get back to reality!

    i have to say this b & b is the best one ive ever stayed at, very romantic,relaxing. the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and accomidating. food was awesome. room was absolutly beautiful. soooo clean and up to date. we loved staying in the alison loft, if your tall id say choose another room the ceilings are very low but i loved that it made it sooo cozy. the firplace and hot tub bath were great. the window view is so nice of the bay. the owners were sooooo nice and made sure we had everything we needed. i hadnt been to st augustine in 15 yrs or more and i have to say this is by far the best bed and breakfast in the city. we cannot wait to go back and stay in all the neat rooms they have. all have names and stories behind them and we just loved it we were sad to leave when out stay was over cant wait to go back in march over spring break. see u all soon. thanks soo much the wonderful stay.

    A++++ Superb 5 star quality!

    My husband and I just returned yesterday from an amazing weekend getaway for his 50th Birthday. The best Bed & Breakfast we have ever stayed at! From the moment I made our reservation to check out, we received 5 star service! Joy Warren (owner) made us feel like royalty and was so gracious and kind. She actually came out to our car to personally escort me to our room while my husband parked the car! We stayed in "Victoria's Room." wow, it was breathtakingly gorgeous, with the best view of all the rooms..of course, all the views are great...but we had a room in the front part, with a huge balcony. They delivered breakfast (delicious!) every morning and we ate on our balcony while enjoying the waterfront view (Bridge of Lions and various boats, yachts, people strolling). Every evening, we were treated to complimentary appetizers and wine (yummy!..and they served top quality wine!) We also enjoyed hanging out in the peaceful courtyard and meeting other guests. Joy took care of our every need...from last minute dinner reservations to recommendations for local excursions...it was so nice to just sit back and not stress about anything! Needless to say, we were very impressed with the Bayfront Wescott B&B, with its refined beauty and tranquility! I would recommend the Bayfront Wescott B&B 100% and we will be returning often! Thank you, Joy, for being so gracious, and for all the surprise goodies for my husband's 50th Birthday! We will always cherish my husband's 50th birthday! Many blessings...

    The best B&B ever
