Hotel Suites St. Augustine FL — Suite Types, Prices & Where to Stay

The beachfront zone — centered on A1A Beach Boulevard and St. Augustine Beach — is home to the largest all-suite properties, including Embassy Suites by Hilton and La Fiesta Ocean Inn & Suites. Every room at Embassy Suites is a suite by design, with two-room layouts standard across the property. La Fiesta offers two-level oceanview townhouse suites that sleep five, plus a large apartment suite with a full kitchen.

The downtown and near-downtown zone includes the voco St. Augustine Historic Area at 215 Anastasia Boulevard, located 0.91 miles from downtown. The I-95 corridor — near St. Augustine Premium Outlets and World Golf Village — is served by the Fairfield Inn & Suites and La Quinta Inn & Suites, both of which include studio-style suite options at lower price points with free breakfast and free parking included.

For families, couples, and business travelers, the choice largely comes down to whether you prioritize an ocean view or convenient access to historic attractions and shopping. Suites in St. Augustine range from compact studio configurations to full two-room layouts with separate living areas, microwaves, and ocean-view balconies.

Embassy Suites by Hilton St. Augustine Beach Oceanfront Resort at 300 A1A Beach Boulevard is the most prominent all-suite beachfront property. Every room is a suite — ranging from a 1-King studio to a 2-Queen 2-Room family suite. A $30 per night resort charge applies and covers beach chairs, towels, a two-hour bike rental, a one-hour surf or body board rental, daily yoga, and two refillable water bottles.

La Fiesta Ocean Inn & Suites is a locally owned beachfront property also situated on St. Augustine Beach, approximately 10 minutes from historic downtown. It features two-level oceanview townhouse suites, a large apartment suite with a full kitchen, and a 60-foot heated swimming pool — described as the largest heated pool on the beach. Breakfast is delivered to your room each morning.

For oceanfront suites, Embassy Suites offers more structured resort amenities including an infinity pool, outdoor hot tub, and multiple dining outlets. La Fiesta provides a more independent, locally operated feel with in-room breakfast delivery and private beach walkway access with no streets to cross.

The voco St. Augustine Historic Area, an IHG property at 215 Anastasia Boulevard, is the closest full-service hotel to downtown in the IHG portfolio — positioned 0.91 miles (1.47 km) from downtown St. Augustine. It offers parking, a pool, and pet-friendly accommodations, with rates from $137 per night including taxes and fees. With a TripAdvisor rating of 4.23 from 435 reviews, it is among the better-rated IHG properties in the St. Augustine market.

The Holiday Inn Express St. Augustine Dtwn – Historic sits at 601 Anastasia Boulevard, 1.35 miles from downtown, with rates from $146 per night. The Holiday Inn Express St. Augustine – Vilano Beach is located at 140 Vilano Road, 1.99 miles from downtown at $142 per night, and is the highest-rated IHG property in the area with a score of 4.90 from 935 reviews. None of these properties publish suite-specific data in the available sources, so suite availability should be confirmed directly.

For travelers focused on the historic district, the choice between voco and Holiday Inn Express properties comes down to budget and specific location. The voco carries the premium positioning within the IHG portfolio while the Holiday Inn Express Vilano Beach earns the highest guest scores in the cluster.

The Fairfield Inn & Suites St. Augustine I-95 and La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham St. Augustine are both located near St. Augustine Premium Outlets — the Fairfield at 305 Outlet Mall Blvd and La Quinta at 250 Outlet Mall Blvd. Both offer complimentary hot breakfast, free WiFi, and free parking, which are not standard at the beachfront properties. The Fairfield starts from $130 per night; La Quinta lists competitive rates in the same corridor.

The Fairfield has been newly renovated, with a refreshed lobby, breakfast area, and most guest rooms. It is certified under Florida's Green Lodging Program, with a carbon footprint of 11.64 kg per room night and a water footprint of 322.16 liters per room night. All rooms include mini-fridges and microwaves. Check-in is at 3 PM; check-out is at noon. Neither property accepts pets.

La Quinta St. Augustine is pet-friendly and includes an outdoor pool, fitness center, and business center. Each non-smoking guest room features a flat-screen HDTV, mini-refrigerator, microwave, desk, and coffee maker. The property is located eight miles from Northeast Florida Regional Airport (UST), making it practical for early-morning or late-night arrivals. Jacksonville International Airport is approximately 50 miles from both I-95 properties.

The largest family suite footprint in St. Augustine is the Embassy Suites 1 King Bed 2 Room Family Suite, which sleeps six with an ocean view and bunk bed layout for children, priced from $404 per night. For families who want more kitchen independence, La Fiesta's apartment suite with a full kitchen and the two-level townhouse suite sleeping five are the most self-sufficient options on the beach.

IHG lists 14 properties in the broader St. Augustine area where kids eat free — primarily Holiday Inn Express locations. The Holiday Inn Express & Suites Saint Augustine North at 2300 State Road 16 holds a particularly strong rating of 4.41 from 2,419 reviews, positioning it as a reliable family choice north of the historic district, though suite-specific data is not available in sources.

For families debating between oceanfront and inland options: Embassy Suites' Family Suite offers direct beach resort amenities (pool, water sports, cabanas) at $404 per night, while the Fairfield's studio suites from $130 include free hot breakfast and free parking without the resort charge overhead — a significant cost difference for multi-night family stays.

The table below summarizes stated starting rates from the competitor sources. All prices are per night and exclude tax unless otherwise noted.

• St. Augustine Beach / A1A: Embassy Suites studio suite from $305/night (includes $30 resort charge). Family suite from $404/night. La Fiesta rates not publicly listed in sources.

The beachfront properties carry the highest per-night rates but include resort-level amenities that partially offset the cost. The I-95 corridor properties offset their inland position with inclusive packages (breakfast, parking, WiFi) that add meaningful value per night compared to paying separately at resort properties.

The Holiday Inn St. Augustine World Golf at 475 Commerce Lake Drive is the furthest from downtown at 10.58 miles but carries the lowest IHG rate at $104 per night, making it the most budget-accessible option in this market if proximity to the historic district is not a priority.
