Door took nearly 2 people to open and close. Parking really tight. Ice machine needs an upgrade. Spa side should at least be warmer than pool side. Not fond of canvas divider on balconies. Honestly if these were remedied, the experience could be much better!
Very luxurious especially for the price. This hotel is pretty much by itself for its location. It’s on the riverside, but the public ocean access is just a mile down the road. It’s close to St. Augustine too. I loved the spacious room and quiet location.
Was told I had a room that didn't exsist. Called the desk at the actual hotel. Was told I had a room west facing. I am from this area and know how beautiful the sunsets are, so this was important to me. I wanted two beds in the room and view of inlet. They do not have any rooms with two beds except for the bottom floor. One room has no windows. The one we were in had had a window to the parking lot on the east side, cars right next to it. Cars woke us up throghout the night and morning. Two pools are hot tub size and there is not a bar. Breakfast 7 to 11 am. Went at 10:30, coffee empty. Everything had been put up except for a awful egg casserole. They really did not care when I complained. There two days and DO NOT RECOMMEND. Will never go back. Some of the furniture had holes.
I have photos but I am having trouble uploading. Beautiful dock is only good thing at this place and looks like outsiders use it also
Second time staying here. Loved the room and the place. It's very xharming. The area is conveniently close to a lot of beach accesses and dining places.
I felt like a a level movie star wlking into an exclusive suite in the Riveara (sp) hat said if I was spending more time in the room some of the furniture although very high end and wonderful wasnt really practical and comfortable. A simple desk and chair would have been nice for sitting on the laptop at the end of the day... but that is being hyper picky, cuz we didnt spend a lot of time in the room :). The wow factor of the room, the property and the personable "AI guy" who was simply someone somewhere with a web cam who greeted us in the lobby and chatted it up when he saw us coming in the door on his screen..As odd as it was the virtual front desk guy worked:) Bliss by the Sea created good memories and didnt have to try hard...oh yeah the real lif lady who was doing the breakfast...a wonderful representative.
The property is very nice and our room was nicely decorated but was very small [the smallest room we’ve stayed in since booking through Expedia] and because Anya [who was helpful when she was there] is only there from 11 am - 8 pm [when we were out and touring] so these hours did not work for us. Communication mostly takes place via text with sporadic response, so it is extremely impersonable. The housekeeping staff are lovely but there is a language barrier so they need to use a translation app to try and answer questions/requests. I would not stay here again.
The interior decor and room furnishings are extremely charming and unique. Our room and views from the balcony were beautiful. Viktoria 'Vic' was the real star of the hotel. Friendly, charming, and so eager to make our stay special. We will definitely stay at Bliss by the Sea when we return to the St. Augustine area.
