We are from MD and visit Saint Augustine every summer (for the past 16 years) and we stayed here the first two weeks of August 2019 and were very comfortable. The condo was very roomy, clean, and perfect for 5-6 people. My 21-year old son loved the large tv for his video games and we enjoyed the balcony overlooking the pool. It was a quiet time of year in Saint Augustine, so there were no crowds on the beach and we practically had the condo pool to ourselves, which was wonderful. The beach access was across the street and over a long boardwalk, but I found it charming (and the wagon at the condo helped my mother and me tremendously to carry all our beach gear). However, my husband and son's sandals that they left at the end of the walk on the beach were taken while they were in the ocean, so I would recommend not leaving your shoes there or at least concealing them. We did love the close proximity to our favorite restaurants (Mango Mangos, Choc Mool, Burrito Works) and to Publix. And we were charmed by Licorice, the parking lot kitty :) It was a great and relaxing vacation and Endless Summer was again a pleasure to work with. Thank you!
