Casa Monica Hotel

The architecture isn’t the only thing that makes Casa Monica Resort & Spa seem like a castle fit for a king — right in downtown St. Augustine. With a history stretching back more than a century, the property has been restored to blend old-world grandeur and modern luxuries.

That combination is evident in more than 12,000 square feet of function space. Meeting rooms feature rich color palettes, elaborate chandeliers, and traditional art, as well as sophisticated audiovisual equipment and innovative banquet menus. The hotel’s team of “Grand Performers” offer unrivaled service and help create unique experiences.

Even beyond business and social events, attendees will feel like royalty at Casa Monica. They can satisfy their cultural curiosity at the Grand Bohemian Art Gallery, share a Mediterranean meal at Costa Brava, and toast to a successful day at Cobalt Lounge. Just in case they forget they’re in Florida, guests can head outside to the pool or enjoy access to nearby Serenata Beach Club, a private, oceanfront club in Ponte Vedra Beach. Further relaxation is found at Poseidon Spa or in the sumptuous guest rooms and suites, which boast plush bedding and classic furnishings.

Outside Casa Monica’s walls, the exploration continues onto the cobblestone streets of St. Augustine’s Historic District. In addition to attractions such as the Plaza de la Constitucion and Colonial Quarter living history museum, the area is home to a majority of the city’s restaurants and shops.
