St. Augustine, the oldest city in the U.S., blends rich history with modern hospitality. Here are four essential hacks to enhance your stay.
Fast Fact: Did you know? Approximately 75% of St. Augustine hotels are within walking distance of historic sites - like Casa Monica Resort & Spa, which embodies the city's Spanish Colonial architecture.
Local Hack: Ask for 'swamp tea' upon check-in; many hotels provide complimentary tastings of this local herbal drink to help guests unwind.
Hidden Gem: The St. Augustine Distillery (10 mins from downtown) offers free tours and tastings, showcasing the art of craft distilling in a renovated historic ice plant.
Smart Tip: Booking mid-week? You'll often find rates 20-30% lower than weekend prices, especially during off-peak seasons.
