Cozy, clean & comfortable. Convenient to the historic district. Parking more than one car is a bit dicey. Some of the shrubbery overhang the parking space, made it difficult to get out of our drivers door. TV reception/connectivity was poor. Overall pleasant.

Casa Lola was just perfect perfect. Comfy beds, lovely shower, great vibes all throughout. Location is so convenient and walkable to the cutest coffee shop right around the corner, and not much further to historic downtown, st Augustine distillery, and many cafes, galleries, and everything you could want. The host is super nice with great communication . We would stay here anytime we were coming to the st Augustine area!

We loved our time in this charming cottage. It was a quiet retreat from the busyness of downtown, while only being a short walk away. We appreciated the coffee and water that the host stocked the kitchen with.

John was incredibly welcoming and kind, always keeping our comfort in mind. This adorable cottage had everything we needed to feel at home, right down to the eclectic décor and furnishings. I loved how they preserved the old charm—original doorknobs and exposed brick—while still giving the home thoughtful updates. It was the perfect spot for my family and pup, and only a six-minute bike ride from downtown! Would stay again!!

John was just the best host for our Parents' 60th wedding anniversary trip. He even stopped by to personally check in on them and ensure that they could operate the television and all the amenities, making it clear that he would be available if they needed anything during their stay. The cottage was adorable and well-represented in the listing. We would highly recommend staying at Casa Lola!

One of the best hosts we.ve had and will definitely book again.If your dates bring up this little gem don't hesitate to book it, you won't be disappointed.

Lovely getaway!
This home is the perfect little getaway. Very charming and quaint. The neighborhood is quiet and is located just minutes away from the St. Augustine’s downtown area and attractions. The bedrooms are a good size and kitchen and living room area are open concept and spacious. There’s a charming enclosed front porch for you to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee. There is also a backyard space to enjoy the lovely garden or just have dinner outdoors. The owner was attentive to my questions and helpful. I would definitely stay again in the near future.

Quaint bungalow near historic downtown
Casa Lola is a beautiful cozy bungalow. Visited St Augustine for a week and stayed here. Very welcoming and clean home. The yard was perfect place to have coffee and play with the dog. The front porch was ideal for naps and a drink in the afternoon. Perfect and welcoming decor. Absolutely loved the house. Easy walk to catch the trolley to tour historic St Augustine. Nice 15 walk to historic St Augustine. 5 minute walk to a local coffee shop. Highly recommend. Close to everything but far enough to enjoy some quiet time.

Wonderful Stay at this Saint Augustine Cottage
We had a wonderful stay at this dog friendly Saint Augustine cottage. Everything was as described in the listing, very clean, host was friendly and easy to communicate with. Our two small dogs enjoyed the fenced in yard. Very quiet neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again.Note: The cottage is approved for one dog but we received approval prior to booking for our 2 small dogs.
