About this property
CRC 1201 - Oceanfront Condo Right on the Beach
Elegant stone counter tops, a stunning Caribbean style master bedroom, stylish tile floors and spectacular ocean front living gives this unit the feel of a luxurious island resort. Not to mention, that ocean front view can’t be beat and being on the quiet side of the building, it's a great getaway! This condo has been renovated with an enlarged kitchen for spacious convenience and new cabinets in the kitchen as well as stainless-steel appliances and a full sized washer and dryer make this your home away from home! The primary bedroom is furnished with a king-sized bed and the guest bedroom has queen size bed and a twin size bed! The smaller third bedroom, known as the “Crow’s Nest,” has one twin bed.
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, dry 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!

This ocean front condo was perfect for my husband's birthday getaway. The condo was clean and well equipped. Our morning coffee and our evening wine on balcony was just what we needed. I highly recommend this condo. We will be back.
Loved our stay at colony!! Met up with girlfriends from 7th grade and gabbed for 3 days. Had a little trouble with keys and cleaning, but all was swiftly rectified from the awesome front desk team. From the occupants to employees everyone is so kind and happy to be there. Will definitely book again!
The description was accurate. We had a very nice stay. The location of our condo was on the opposite side of the courtyard and pool which made it feel even more secluded w a great view! Thanks for everything!

Reviewer Comments:
The pictures do not acurately reflect the condition of the unit. It's straight out the 80's. In fact the furniture in the TV room/breakfast area is completely different. The place is very dated and is in need of a deep clean. Bedrooms and bathrooms need renovating. Kitchen is up to date and well stocked, although most dishes needed a prewash before use. Door access is old school lock and key. Slat blinds are breaking in LR and Master. Closet door in master broken. Fan in master noisey--thank God for the box fan in the closet. Bathroom fans are disgusting and noisy. Overall it's livable for a few days, just not what we expected based off of the pictures. Even had to tell management that the elevator inspection had expired a month ago. Best part was being able to drive onto the beach. It's a loooonng boardwalk from the condo to the beach.

Beautiful condo! Lots of room. Very comfortable. Recommendations for hooks on the backs of the doors in the bathroom and in the bedrooms. The small bedroom was very small and not a lot of storage. Just a suggestion that maybe you could make more storage possible.

Everything was nice. The condo was clean and spacious. It was nice to have an extra bedroom. The view was beautiful. It was nice to sit on the large balcony and hear the waves crash. The pool and hot tub were always clean. We were able to play ping pong and racquet ball as we had a tropical storm. Would definitely come back again. It would have been nice to have some beach towels and some basic toiletries. The area was close to restaurants and historic St Augustine.

Outstanding vacation. Rooms are very clean and well kept. Staff is very helpful and accommodating. Would absolutely stay here again. 5 stars!!!
The host was absolutely AMAZING!!!! If I could recommend 20 stars I would!!!!! The view of the beach was exactly how it looked in the pictures. The rooms was clean and it smelled fresh!!!!
The condo was perfect for our family. Very homey. Very close to the beach, and not too far from shopping/dining. Would definitely recommend.

Great week
The location of property was its best feature. Close to everything. Also great beach front property. Pool was nice. The unit was old. It needs a complete remodel. Cleaning is surface cleaning. No deep cleaning or dusting is done.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a good time. Condo is in a good location for us. Not as clean as our last stays. Understand prices have increased but this unit for the price really wasn't worth it, just my opinion
For being ocean front, this place was a great value for when looking for a place for your family. Just an FYI, all the mattresses are solid blocks of memory foam. That takes some getting use to. The TV in the living room is way outdated and blurry. The cable is lifeline cable with very little to watch at night. The internet is good though, so bring your own Firestick or Roku stick as I did see it had an open HDMI port. There are grocery stores close by to get some supplies, like coffee, ice and paper towels and better toilet paper. If going to downtown St. Augustine, consider an Uber. It is worth it as parking is limited and not free.

This is our 6th year as a family vacation in the colony reef. Very pleased as always. Only problem is I tried to register for next summer with our friend in 1203 and there was a problem. We were told at the front office that the rental for a week next summer will be $5000. That is too much as I am a retired educator and this is out of my budget requirements. Please let me know if this is the correct price or I will not be able to continue our family summer vacation next year.

Nasty Disaster
Late checking, mater lights didn't work, shower light flickers and worked every now and then, master ceiling fan sounded like a train, box fans for other bedrooms, no living room fan or lights other than lamps. Washing machine sounded like it was on the brink of death, sewage smell from master bath sink each time used, dishwas smelled like it was ready to burn the place down, in fact maintenance was there 3 different times. Had to pay cleaner to come clean after checking. 70s style throughout and way over priced. Highly recommend the complex but this unit costed more than $3,500 for the week and a $68 motel 6 would have been better. Saw other updated units and they were phenomenal. VRBO and owners really stuck it to us hard. Should be ashamed and we didn't have a master bedroom light until the last day.

This is a lovely property in a beautiful location. The condos are a bit tired and need a deep cleaning. It seems the maintenance staff is overwhelmed and could use a few more staff members. All in all it's a wonderful place for a family vacation but could use an update in the condos. Our family rented 7 units and we shared this opinion. How about a crockpot and some decent knives? Nice folks in the office. Owners, stay in your own condos as a guest please.
