The Basics

SELECT REGISTRY MEMBER SINCE 2002

The St. Francis Inn, built in 1791, is an oasis. Guests easily walk to everything St Augustine offers and then return to the B&B to relax. Some of our 19 unique rooms have fireplaces, balconies, and jetted tubs, all featuring antique furniture and modern comforts. The grounds include a heated pool, four-season gardens, and a walled courtyard. Guests return year after year for the friendly staff, generous amenities, and scrumptious food.

This Inn was beyond beautiful and amazing. My husband booked this after being married on the beach and I was amazed at how amazing and helpful the staff was. Everything from the room to the food was perfect. I will NEVER stay anywhere else when I come to Saint Agustine. I will be back next year with my family for my anniversary! Please book this beautiful Inn
