The Spotlight on Castillo Real Resort Hotel

Relaxed Beach Vibes with Easy Access to St. Augustine's Music Scene

Modern and laid-back, the Castillo Real Resort Hotel is a charming escape just a 2-minute walk from the Atlantic Ocean. Located about 6 miles from St. Augustine’s historic downtown and music venues, it’s a great balance of beachside calm and easy access to the action. With spacious rooms featuring microwaves, fridges, and coffee makers, plus an outdoor pool and free Wi-Fi, it’s a solid pick for concert-goers who want both convenience and comfort.

Why Concert-goers love it

The hotel’s location makes it ideal for catching a show and then crashing somewhere peaceful. You're close enough to Uber or drive to venues in the historic district, but far enough to avoid late-night noise. The concierge service can help with transport tips, and the 11:00 AM check-out gives you time to sleep in after a big night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want beach time and music in one trip
  • Solo travelers chasing that dream setlist
  • Couples looking to pair a concert with a romantic beach weekend
  • Fans needing a quiet wind-down after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want comfort without overspending

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant open late, the area offers several walkable dining options, including seafood and casual beach bars. Many rooms have microwaves and fridges for late-night snacks, and breakfast spots nearby make it easy to refuel after a late night.

Nightlife Options

You’ll find a variety of beach bars and pubs within walking distance, and the short drive into town opens up even more options—from live music lounges to craft cocktail bars. It's a relaxed scene, perfect for pre- or post-concert drinks.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, spacious rooms and especially the location—close to both the beach and downtown St. Augustine. The pool and hot tub are a hit, and many mention the hotel’s quiet, relaxed atmosphere after a busy night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have noted that the hotel is a bit dated in décor, and others wished for an on-site restaurant or bar that stayed open later. But most agree the location and value make up for it.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a chill, beachside base with easy access to St. Augustine’s concert venues, Castillo Real Resort Hotel hits all the right notes.

Excellent service and location.

Liked: The staff was a pleasure and always accommodating. Special thanks to Raquel who always greeted me with a smile and helped me to resolve many issues. Location was amazingly close to beach which I did not realize when I booked. I loved the steamer in the room as opposed to an iron. - worked great for my clothes! Convenient parking. Beautiful decor in lobby.
Disliked: The hotel was in transition so I was often having to ask for things that were not in the room but it was readily provided. My door was left open during the day when I got back it was still open, but there was no issue in my room. I think the hotel will be amazing after all of the upgrades.

Disappointed

Liked: the front desk was helpful, the front desk manager was very good
Disliked: Ownership could not care less about costumers. Towels, sheets, and mattress are beyond decency, torn and broken. The bathroom lacks appropriate lighting, and you should bring your own soap and shampoo. The room was half empty, nowhere to seat. The bed makes lots of noise at every move. The pool is out of service. The building has 4 stories, only from the 4th floor you can slightly see the ocean. Overall is not delivering on the promises.

Budget hotel

Liked: Very visually appealing. Wasn't finished but looked nice and smelled nice
Disliked: Stayed 4 nights and never got any house keeping, only 1 set of towels. Staff seemed unfriendly and not very informative. Roof in the hall leaked water and half my lights didn't work at first. Had to pay $42 for parking.
