Very Nice Stay
We had a great stay at the Life is Good condo. The condo itself is very nice, very clean and provided all the items you need for a stay. Our first time to the area and the location was great, on the beach, short drive to downtown St Augustine and other attractions. The hosts were easy to communicate with and would highly recommend this property.

Nice condo
This was our first time to St. Augustine Beach. The condo was very clean and nicely decorated. The walk to the beach was short & easy. I will say that the twin beds are very low to the floor so perfect for young children but not so much for someone older. Overall it was a good experience.

The condo was very clean and nicely decorated. Good location. Close to the pools and beach. The only complaint I have is the bed in the master bedroom was not comfortable. Everytime you moved it would make noises. Very lumpy.

Great little property. Updated and modern. Clean. Comfy and cozy. Has everything you need for a great stay. The beach is a very short walk away and chairs and beach towels are provided. I think there was even a small cooler to take to the beach. Check in was a breeze and Christina was easy to access and a great communicator. I would definitely book again.

Enjoyed our break in this beautiful condo
We loved the condo. It was perfect for our little family of 4. Location was perfect and you could walk to the nature trail which is next door. The unit was clean and the beds were comfortable. The owners were very communicative. We spent all our days at the beach and also played pickle ball. We used the grill one night. Pools were alittle to chilly for us. Loved this condo community. The best location we stayed so far. Recommend Salt Water Cowboys and the Columbia restaurant.

Our stay was very relaxing and comfortable. The unit was very clean and nicely decorated. The hosts took great care in making sure that we had the minimum essentials in the kitchen and coffee bar. The hosts also communicated regularly to make sure we were enjoying our stay and if we needed anything. The unit was exactly as pictured and well worth it! If in St. Augustine again, we will definitely see if it's available!

Wonderful condo, great location
We came in town for the Sing Out Loud Festival. I wanted somewhere on the beach instead of in town. This was perfect. It wasn't too far from downtown. We even walked to Beachcomber, then played putt putt down the street. Loved the private beach access. I will definitely book here again. Super clean and comfy. We had a great time. It was really nice to be able to come back from town and take a late walk on the beach.

Awesome Stay!
Christina was so responsive and accommodating after our other reservation was cancelled just two hours before we arrived. Christina allowed us to check in that same day with almost no notice but the condo was immaculate! This place is very modern and everything was comfortable. The building has its own hot tub in the courtyard and one of the pools is around 100 feet away. The walk to the beach was also easy and close. And Publix is just down the street, close enough to bike to while mini golf is less than a half mile away. We definitely recommend it for any family looking to have a great time in St Augustine!

Life is Good Beach Condo review
The property's proximity to the beach with private access made it incredibly convenient. However, upon arrival, despite the property being advertised as non-smoking, we noticed a lingering cigarette/smoke smell, particularly noticeable in the master bedroom and bathroom. After reporting this to the property manager, she was understanding but unsure of the cause. Thankfully, antihistamines provided some relief. Additionally, the beds were squeaky, disrupting sleep whenever my spouse moved. Despite these challenges, we managed. There were also issues with the lockbox during checkout, necessitating a trip to the front office to return the keys. Throughout our stay, the property manager/owner remained courteous and helpful.
