The town of St. Augustine, Florida, carries the unique distinction of being the oldest continuously-occupied European settlement in the United States, a cultural honor that the regal Casa Monica Hotel has embraced since it opened back in 1888. The Moorish Revival-style hotel boasts intricate balconies, an arched carriage entrance, hand-painted Italian tile, five majestic tower suites and red-tile roof. The lobby has hand-painted, gold-leafed archways and rich Spanish tapestries that remind visitors of the city’s first settlers.
This influence is carried throughout 138 boutique-style guest rooms, each appointed with Spanish-style furnishings, four-poster wrought-iron beds, mahogany tables and wicker lounge chairs. In-suite details offer a great staging ground for Casa Monica’s other signature attractions: access to the Serenata Beach Club, tours of their antique-car collection and free pool and health club privileges.
