La Rêverie: a 19th Century Boutique Stay. Historical Chic, Downtown Location
Step inside La Rêverie, a distinguished 19th-century residence steeped in American heritage, meticulously restored & reimagined for today's discerning traveler. Centrally located on original coquina pillars, La Rêverie boasts cathedral ceilings suffused with sunlight and a bespoke French kitchen with chef-grade amenities. Invite guests to the sitting room, carefully designed to foster camaraderie. Choose from three plush bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath for a luxurious, yet private retreat.
La Rêverie is over 120 years old, yet a recent successful, ambitious effort has turned this historical gem into a modern day boutique stay for travelers who want an authentic Lincolnville & St. Augustine experience. Channel your inner French master chef and curate your version of a culinary masterpiece. Perhaps you’ll choose to dine al fresco at the oversized solid wood eucalyptus table, then bring your aperitif of choice to the Adirondack circle. For a more lively view, enjoy the front porch rockers surrounded by new cedar shingle, and watch in amusement as trolleys filled with curious travelers pass by. La Rêverie wants you to bring your whole family, where you’ll all feel comfortable retiring to one of three chambers, each equipped with their own mounted flatscreen LG Smart TV with Queen bed and a fully stocked, private full bath.
La Rêverie is located on the most historical road in Lincolnville and overlooks the famous "Freedom Trail". From the porch, you will overlook the very street where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was arrested; This location was indeed the center of a great cultural and transformative change in the Southern states.

Absolutely stunning property with everything you need for your stay. The house looks even better in person. We will definitely go back. The district of Linconville was very impressive and lots of interesting history. The house was decorated beautifully, I didn’t want to leave!!!
This house was great; very clean, beautifully decorated, many amenities, and within walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and tourist sites. We had a lovely stay and highly recommend La Reverie as a place to stay.

Wow! Thank you, Renai. We are thrilled you loved the oversized and well stocked kitchen, and found our communication to be on point! Hope to host you again.
This was the absolute perfect house for our family vacation. Close enough to beaches and restaurants without the noise of nightlife. Our kids loved the “secret tv” they found above the refrigerator in the kitchen! The decor in this house was beautiful. We hope to be back someday.

Thank you, Keith! We are so glad you loved our fantastic location, as well as many special features throughout the home. Come back soon!
The house was perfect with the three bedrooms and three bathrooms. There was everything you could think of in the kitchen. The house was clean and well maintained. The hosts were accommodating and allowed us to check in early and leave late (even though we were on a schedule). The location was a short walk to downtown and restaurants. Everyone needs a nice walk after a meal and drinks!

We were looking for a place to stay for along weekend getaway. We found one of the nicest properties we have stayed in. The attention to detail was just outstanding. We wouldn’t change a thing. My wife didn’t want to leave. The home is walking distance to St Augustine’s historic district.

Wow, Gerard! We are elated that you loved our attention to detail and our historic home’s walkability to downtown. Hope to see you again soon :)
Our stay at La Reverie was perfect. First of all, the communication with Justin was excellent. We had asked for an early check-in and he was able to accommodate us. The house is beautifully decorated and appointed and is exactly as pictured. We chose this property for a few reasons: the location (walkable to coffee shops, brewery and downtown St Aug), the fact that it was a 3 bed, 3 en-suite bathrooms (we were 3 couples) and the outdoor space (the weather didn't also for us to take advantage of it). The kitchen is beautiful and has everything you need to cook and enjoy eating in. The beds were comfortable and felt cosy and inviting. There was a sweet Welcome Bag with treats and a handwritten Thank You card which we so appreciated.We spent time on the front porch watching the trollies ride by. it really was a perfect 2 nite stay. Justin also gave a great recommendation for take out! We are looking forward to returning in the summer and again next year for Nights of Lights. If you haven't experienced this seasonal event, put it on your bucket list. Justin & Brittany will provide you with the best experience for your stay at La Reverie in St. Augustine.
This property is a must see, incredible attention to detail AND well appointed! All appliances and kitchenware are top notch. Each of the bedrooms and bathrooms so unique with all the finer touches while keeping it truly historic.
The hosts were very attentive and easy to work with throughout our stay! We had the opportunity to take in many of the sights including the first evening of the Night of Lights in the square to kick off the holidays!
The neighborhood was very quiet, while it was several blocks from the north end where most of the shopping, restaurants and action of St Augustine - it is still within walking distance making it convenient vs dealing with parking.
We would recommend and definitely stay again!

About the host
Hosted by Justin K
Your hosts, Brittany and I, are local to Saint Augustine! We fell in love with the genuine, historical nature of the town as well as the modernity in chic new restaurants, shoppes and cafes throughout town. Contact us anytime for any and all recommendations!
Why they chose this property
Lincolnville, nestled just south of St. Augustine, exudes an undeniable charm with its colorful Victorian-era houses and neighborly way of life. Once a thriving African American community dating back to the late 19th century, Lincolnville boasts a rich history of resilience and cultural significance. Visitors can explore landmarks like the Lincolnville Historic District, which played a pivotal role in the Civil Rights Movement, and the Lincolnville Museum and Cultural Center, showcasing the neighborhood's heritage. Today, Lincolnville retains its historic allure while welcoming visitors to experience its vibrant atmosphere and deep-rooted history firsthand.
What makes this property unique
La Rêverie is centrally located within Lincolnville, and so exploring the local area on foot is highly encouraged. Highly reputable restaurants, galleries and shoppes lie only a 10-15 minute walk away. You also receive access to parking via the home’s driveway, which becomes very valuable on the weekends and during events when other nearby locations charge to park. Other fun methods of seeing the town include hopping onto a classic trolley, or even horse and buggy!
