Our Airbnb was just as described in the posting. Great for a few friends enjoying a reunion weekend. Walkable to the downtown area and easy to get to by cars. Very clean and well designed as the pictures show. We would stay here again.
Andrea & Danny were great hosts and the place was fantastic! We loved the shuffle board table and the rooftop views were stunning. Great location right next to the Lightner museum and in a very walkable area with great shops and restaurants. Would recommend!
Really liked the history of "The Ray". Thank you for an enjoyable experience!
This place was an amazing penthouse! Super easy process in and out, clear instructions, and great walkable location. We had great weather and the rooftop was an amazing bonus. Plenty of space, openness, and games to play with family. Highly recommend
Stayed at The Ray with another couple for a wedding. It was our first time in St. Augustine. The neighborhood was great, very walkable to the main parts of St. Augustine. We enjoyed Dog Rose Brewing and Ragga Surf Cafe. The floor plan was open so not cramped, plenty of kitchen amenities if we had needed them. We walked all around the neighborhood, different times of day and different routes and didn’t have any issues. St Augustine is a tough park/drive around so the close proximity to the historic area was a plus.
