-Palmetto bugs are large bugs that look like roaches but have wings and can fly in through open doorways. They are a HUGE problem in Florida especially after heavy rains. We have monthly pest control service but these particular bugs often still find a way to get in. Hopefully, if you see one he is either dead or dying. Don’t be alarmed - they don’t bite or sting. I usually grab a paper towel and pick them up and toss them in the garbage can. If you see more than one or two please let me know and I’ll give the exterminator a call.

Much needed R&R

Believe me folks, the pictures are REAL! I had the most relaxing stay at Casa de Flora B. It is an excellent location (could walk everywhere in Historical St. Augustine, FL). The parking is a major plus. The attention to detail is superb. The furnishing are high quality. The unit is quite & safe. The host thought of everything one could use. I am so fortunate to have found this gem. Will plan future visits!

We had a wonderful time at Casa de Flores, the apt. was very clean and wonderfully appointed. Bill and Ann were very responsive and we would recommend this property for a couple.

Best cottage in St. Augustine

My daughter and I spent a weekend in this perfect cottage for her birthday. From the first moment we arrived we were in love. Everything is beyond perfect, the owners even left my daughter a bear for her birthday! We walked just about everywhere and felt safe no matter where we were. I can't wait to stay there again, I wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else

Great place right in the heart of St. Augustine

Mary Ann was a wonderful hostess for our small family during our recent trip! We loved the apartment and it's many amenities. The bathroom and kitchen were fully stocked with lots of extras. Comfy bed! We even had a selection of yummy snacks and a magnificent coffee and tea selection with all the fixings! Mary Ann was available and so kind! We will definitely plan to stay again.

Great location all attractions were within walking distance. Great communication with the landlord. Definitely I will come back.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Ann

Host profile image
My husband Bill and I owned a community pharmacy for 25 years. In April of 2016 we sold this business. Bill grew up in the house beside this property. His mother, Flora, purchased this house in the 70's from the family that had built it in 1924. The home has 3 apartments and has previously been rented long term. Apartment B became available in August and we decided to completely redo it and offer it as a vacation rental.

Why they chose this property

This property is located in the uptown area of St Augustine and is within walking distance to everything downtown. You're close enough to enjoy downtown without being caught up in the noise and traffic congestion.

What makes this property unique

Close to historic downtown. There is a front and back entrance to Apartment B with parking in the back.
