About this property
CRC 1303 - Silver Oceanfront Extended Balcony
Enjoy a large wrap around balcony with views of the ocean and the pool in this 3rd floor corner condo. The kitchen is well equipped with all your needs for a stay of any length with a drip coffee pot. While most of the appliances in this condo are older, this condo does have a brand new as of 2020 refrigerator. The plush king size bed and private balcony access from the master bedroom makes beach side living all the easier! There is a full size bed and a twin size bed in the second bedroom and two twins in the smaller third bedroom known as the "Crow's Nest." *As this is a Silver rated condo some of the furniture and décor have not be updated recently.
Please note: The owner of this condo is severely allergic to pet dander so this condo cannot accommodate service animals of any kind. However, we have many other condos that do accommodate service animals here at Colony Reef Club!
All of the condos are equipped with private Wi-Fi and have TVs in the living room, master bedroom, and second bedroom. We provide initial toilet paper, trash bags, bath soap, and dishwasher pods. Guests are advised to bring supplementary items if needed.
Take advantage of the recreational opportunities of this private gated community, including a large oceanfront pool, children's playground, two tennis courts with pickleball court lines, and a basketball hoop. Our indoor amenities include a heated pool, sauna, racquetball court, and fitness center.
The beautiful, white, sandy beaches are just a two-minute walk from buildings 1 and 2 and a three-minute walk from building 3. The beaches are accessible by car with just a short drive north to the Dondanville Road Access.
Only a 15-minute drive away is historic downtown Saint Augustine, where there is no shortage of shopping, dining, or fun activities for people of all ages. Check out the town's many historic attractions or hop on the Trolley to see it all on the go! You can purchase DISCOUNTED tickets to the Old Town Trolley and many of Saint Augustine’s attractions right in the main office at the property!
Saint Augustine has no shortage of kid friendly entertainment! Check out the Alligator Farm or the Lighthouse and Maritime Museum here on the island or head downtown for the Pirate and Treasure Museum or Potter’s Wax Museum for some good old fashion family fun!

We loved this condo at the Colony Reef! The space wa siege t for our family of seven, the condo amenities were exactly what we wanted, and the staff there was great! Huge shout out to the maintenance man who was patient and super kind to our kids! The Hughes’ condo was well-kept and our only “wish” was that folks were allowed to leave behind basic essentials like spices and laundry detergent. It felt so wasteful to have to throw everything out. We highly recommend this place though!
The views are amazing from this condo! We really enjoyed our stay. The property was quiet and clean. Beach access was easy and full of wildlife to enjoy, bunnies, tortoises and snakes, oh my! The only down side to this condo is that the crows nest beds don't seem to be full length twins so if your kids are bigger it might not work. Over all we loved our stay!

This is our second year at Colony Reef and plan to return every year as long as long as our health allows. Everyone there is very friendly and a great location near our favorite restaurants and golf courses. Our unit is always clean on arrival and staff respond to any questions or concerns we have in a timely fashion. Not sure about other units but the only suggestion I would have for ours (and I meant to mention to office) is for a coffee maker with auto shut off.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful Easter vacation in Condo 1303. You just can't beat the view!!! Falling asleep and waking up to the sounds of the ocean was rejuvenating. We knew going in that the kitchen was a little outdated, but that was not a problem and was fully stocked with everything we needed when we cooked in. 3 bedrooms/2 baths was just enough room for us to spread out, but enjoy family time together and play games. Wish we didn't have to leave.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay. As in previous reviews the unit is dated. The furniture is worn but very comfortable. Construction on the boardwalk started a bit earlier than we expected and was quite loud the first couple of days. We did have a 3 day Nor'easter come through and there were some pretty bad leaks. Maintenance was very quick to get us buckets and towels to catch the leaks.

We have been going to St. Augustine for the past 3 years and have finally found our home away from home for a couple months out of the cold winter weather in northern NY. The location of Colony Reef Club is great. Within walking distance of a few good restaurants. Grocery stores close by. There are also some nice golf courses in the area to choose from. The staff at Colony Reef are very friendly and helpful. The grounds and the complex are clean. The view from our condo was amazing. Never gets old looking out at the ocean every day. Almost daily beach walks were very nice and relaxing. Again we are so excited to have found our winter getaway for the next several years God willing.

Reviewer Comments:
1303 was a homey unit with a feeling of family which boasts the most wonderfully open view of the ocean!! The furniture and bed are very comfortable. Even though not updated, the kitchen is well stocked for cooking in! We enjoyed a family reunion for a week of sharing and sightseeing! Coming to beaches frequently, though most accommodations at St. Augustine are older, we enjoy the beach! Also, the grounds are well maintained. Colony Reef is definitely due for updating exteriorly..concrete and elevator needs! This unit was clean but the bedroom carpet is so worn it seems to be filthy! Hating to make any negative remark, I definitely would change out that carpet! It was a wonderful, relaxing stay.
The view of the ocean from the balcony is wonderful. The condo itself is ok but would greatly benefit from some updating and general maintenance. When we checked in there were lights that didn't work, light bulbs that were burned out and the ceiling fan in the living room doesn't work. The carpets REALLY need to be replaced. I think they are beyond cleaning. Rust in the kitchen sink and the faucet doesn't shut off unless you get it in just the right position. FYI.. there is no walk in shower. The master has a jacuzzi tub that is very high and the other bathroom has a tub/shower.
All in all we enjoyed our weekend in St Aug and would come back... but not to this condo.
Comfortable condo with great balcony views and close to St. Augustine
We LOVED the size of this condo and location within the complex as it was an end unit with view of pool and beach from our extra large balcony compared to some condos we have rented on past vacations. There is a round table and 6 chairs on this 3rd floor balcony plus two additional older chairs. New blinds were being installed just as we we were leaving the condo to checkout. Style of furniture/decor is not updated or high end style... yet it fit our personality of beach casual comfort perfectly!!! This might be good to know for families with younger children. Loved having a bedroom with sliding glass door to the balcony - could watch the sunrise right from the bedroom. We felt very much the comfort of home as opposed to renting a hotel room. The beach was not crowded during our late May-early June stay. The beach was clean and sand so soft on the feet. The ocean water was warm. The pool on the complex was exceptional! There were people cleaning the pool each morning and doing other projects to improve the premises, so that was nice to see. We loved the area of Butler Beach up to St. Augustine (visited twice) and enjoyed many tasty restaurants during our 5 night stay. We would be happy to get to stay in this same condo in the future! :)

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Just dingy and outdated
Fortunately this property is in a nice area with a spectacular view and that’s what saves it. The entire place needs an overhaul. Carpet in the master is dirty. Everything is outdated and dingy. Everything is sticky, falling apart or rusted. Curtain jn the master was broken and we couldn’t open it so we couldn’t enjoy the beautiful view from the room. Bed in master feels like you are sleeping on a trampoline. The third bedroom though was written in description was not a full bedroom but had two twins did not fit kids properly. Then to make matters worse we couldn’t all shower one after the other. If not by the second shower there would be no hot water. So 6 of us had to stagger and make sure to give enough time between showers and take short showers so everyone had a warm shower. Couches felt dirty and the chairs in the dining room were upholstered and they were dirty as well. It’s a shame because updated that place would be a great place to stay.

The condo was as expected, a little outdated but clean. What makes this unit is the view. Amazing Ocean View as well as the pool. I didn't like the carpeting in the bedrooms but again, we knew this going into our week.I have been coming to Colony Reef the last 6 years and have always had a great experience. However, this year there were a few things that made my husband and I rethink if we want to come back again. There was a water shut off for most of the day due to a concrete leak. They posted the sign and although bothersome, we understood. Since we have five kids, we planned that day to go into town instead of the beach so we lost the beach day. 2 days later, there was no notice posted and we are woken up at 8:30 in the morning to Jack hammering and the water was again shut off. This was definitely annoying as we couldn't use toilets or anything and I had grumpy kids on my hands. For the first time ever, the pool was not available outside to swim after dark. My kids and I loved doing those late night swims and this was a huge disappointment. We heard because the lighting wasn't up to code and this is something that definitely needs to get fixed and I hope it does before next year. We also learned they changed the security. The guard was extremely harsh. Anytime my kids would dip their toes in the hot tub, he would come barreling out and continue to watch all of us and it was very uncomfortable. I understand he's just doing his job but it was way Overkill. Taking all those things into account, made our stay less than Stellar this year. My husband's family has been coming for over 40 years. We rented four units this year and are going to possibly look around to go somewhere else if some of these things remain the same. On a positive note, the boardwalk was redone and is beautiful. It makes walking down to the beach with all of our stuff so much easier.

This was my wife's and my third year of staying at Colony Reef during the winter months. This is a well-maintained and professionally managed condo association near to downtown. The administrative staff is responsive and friendly. St. Augustine is a charming city with an unmatched (U.S.) history, excellent restaurants and music scene. It's local colleges and the county library system round out the experience.
