Wow, the Magic Beach Motel is an absolutely charming beachside gem that had us smiling like kids in a candy store during our stay a few weeks ago! The retro-chic rooms, twinkling courtyard lights, and super-friendly staff made it a fantastic coastal escape. We're already eager to return, it’s that delightful!

This motel has become one our favorite places to stay when we go to St. Augustine. The rooms are huge, it is steps from the beach, and there is plenty to eat within walking distance.

Definitely our favorite beach motel in Florida! Very quiet and safe. A quick walk to either the beach, restaurants and grocery store. The rooms are very clean and the bed is very comfortable. The few times we have been there all of the staff has been friendly, outgoing and very helpful.

this hotel offers a retro old-school Florida charm in an area that’s increasingly becoming mainstream modern. Love the neon sign out front and being able to pull right up to your room with car. The room itself It’s a little small but clean ,the air-conditioning, television sinks, and bathroom facilities all worked well very short, hop to the beach or to walk to the supermarket or the local restaurants. Too hard to go back and edit for punctuation after doing this review by voice definitely enjoyed the stay.

Great stay!

We had a wonderful stay. It was perfect for our family and just a few steps to the beach makes it a wonderful location. While it may not have all the upgraded amenities that your upscale hotels offer, the nostalgia of this place was what we enjoyed for the price during Spring Break. Our family doesn't need fancy to have a great time. It was perfect. It had a kitchenette, bathroom and 2 bedrooms with plenty of space to relax. We hope we are able to stay here again.
