Ocean Hibiscus Retreat – For 8

Summary:

Discover your ideal vacation spot here at Ocean Hibiscus Retreat, a beautifully furnished beachfront condo in St. Augustine, Florida! Surrounded by vibrant hibiscus flowers, towering palm trees, and lush tropical gardens, your private gated ocean access is just a short walk away. Minutes away from the historic charm of St. Augustine, everything you need is within reach, making it the perfect stay for families, friends, snowbirds, or small groups, offering both relaxation and adventure.



The Space:

Enjoy the space and privacy of two connected units! One side features a cozy studio with 1 bed and 1 bath,

while the other side offers 2 beds and 2 bathrooms—perfect for families or groups who want both togetherness and personal space.



Located in the desirable Hibiscus Oceanfront Resort community, guests will enjoy beautifully maintained grounds creating a tropical paradise complete with 3 pools, one of which is heated, 2 jacuzzi spas, a fitness center, gas grills, tennis and pickleball courts, comfortable patio furniture, and a beachfront gazebo. All the beach gear you need for a day in the sun and on the sand is also included, with the seashore just a short walk away out your front door.



While Ocean Hibiscus Retreat offers a serene escape, the historic charm of nearby St. Augustine adds to the uniqueness of your vacation experience. The nation's oldest city is a treasure trove of experiences, from wandering the cobblestone streets to exploring the Castillo de San Marcos or strolling down St. George Street, filled with excellent restaurants (don't miss the Columbia!), quaint shops, cafes, and galleries.



The home’s charming interior keeps the soothing ocean vibes top of mind, expertly curated with comfortable furnishings alongside beach-chic décor. Sink into the plush leather sofa or cushy armchairs while you stream all your favorite entertainment on the smart TV. Step out onto the breezy balcony to enjoy your morning coffee, the outdoor sofa seating providing a quiet spot for soaking in the fresh air and turning the pages of a good book.



Back indoors, the spacious kitchen is fit for a crowd, featuring stainless steel appliances, glossy stone counters, and crisp white cabinetry stocked with all the comforts of home. Snag a high-top stool at the counter for casual bites or gather around the dining table, seating 6 for more formal fare.



This home comfortably sleeps 8 guests between 3 private bedrooms, a studio, and a full size sleeper sofa in the living room.



Bedroom #1 includes a queen size bed, smart TV, and ensuite bathroom with a single vanity and walk-in shower.



Bedroom #2 includes a twin size bed with a twin trundle, and a smart TV.



The studio includes a king size bed, smart TV, private balcony, private entrance, kitchenette, and ensuite bathroom with a single vanity and shower/tub combo.



The home also includes an additional full guest bathroom with a pedestal sink and walk-in shower.



THINGS TO NOTE:

• Washer and dryer in home.

• Lot parking available for 3 vehicles – 2 assigned and 1 on a first come, first served basis.



There are many things that make St. Augustine a desirable destination, from its pristine beaches, attractions such as the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum, Alligator Farm Zoological Park, and Anastasia State Park (a prime destination for birdwatching), and a rich history paired with Spanish colonial architecture make it a perfect getaway in any season. Pair that with year-round celebrations and festivals to ideal temperatures, and you’ll wonder why you’ll ever want to stay anywhere else!



Our Grand Welcome hospitality team, who keep the property sparkling clean, can assist you 24/7, ensuring your stay is worry-free. We warmly invite you to book your stay today and experience the beauty of Ocean Hibiscus Retreat!

Perfect place to relax and go nowhere else

The Ocean Hibiscus retreat is the perfect place to sit back and relax. It has plenty of space for a large family. I appreciated the amount of clean towels, extra beach towels, Keurig machine, and beach wagon available. The aesthetic is very pleasing and comfortable.

Hibiscus Resort Review

Some of the kitchen appliances were not clean. Some areas of the resort were in disrepair. Overall though, the unit itself fulfilled our needs and we had an enjoyable stay.

We had a great stay! The condo was clean, easy to get into, quiet and unproblematic. I loved the setup of the unit. We were able to accommodate our teenagers, younger children and ourselves without being on top of each other all of the time. The complex was easy to get in and out of. We didn’t spend much time there, as we had a short stay, so I can’t speak much as to the amenities, but we had a wonderful time and would definitely go back.

Nice condo near beach!

Condo interior was nicely decorated, spacious, and clean. Unit is near beach. No elevator, needs better exterior lighting.

Condo was beautiful and clean with a great layout for two families. Everything we needed was included. Communication regarding building number and correct gate code could have been better. Grounds need care. A balcony picture with a view of the beach gate was included in original pictures which was very deceiving as it was quite a haul to the beach, especially with small children. We would not have selected this unit had we know prior to making reservation. Overall it was a good value for the price.

Perfect for our Easter Weekend!

We were looking for a great spot for our family of five to enjoy Easter Weekend and Ocean Hibiscus Retreat - for 8 did not disappoint! The layout allowed for plenty of space when we wanted time together while allowing our kids (22, 20, 17) to enjoy their own space as well. The beach was just a short walk, and everything we needed was there (seven chairs, a beach blanket, two boogie boards, a few sand toys, and a wagon for transport!)! The communication from the rental company was superb...they checked on us via message, were quick to respond to my questions about availability of a grill (there are several!) and local recommendations! This is certainly where we'll stay each time we return to the area!

Pros and Cons Review! We visited late July. The condo was clean and inviting. The host was responsive and accomodating. The beach is past the pools and down a boardwalk. The pools are great with plenty of chairs and areas of sun and shade.The con for us was the layout. The description does explain that there is a seperate suite with its own entrance. But what we didn't realise was in order to get into the main condo we either had to walk through a "bedroom" or go into the hall and come in through the other door.The area that was the "bedroom" was essentially a pass through. And they could lock their doors but on our side there was not a lock (or a deadbolt on the hallway door) so the suite doesn't really have the sense of privacy as the exterior door can be opened by anyone in the condo as the codes to the doors are the same. Just something to be aware of depending on who you are traveling with.
