This stay was a bukket list item for me and I knew wanted to stay around the air show time because they have an awesome rooftop bar. Now the air show was very limited this year and that was no fault of the hotel, but they wouldnt let us upstairs unless paid another 60.00 a person. I get it was a ticketed event but this is one reason I booked this hotel. The air show was only 45 minutes because of the govt shutdown. Its crazy they wouldnt let guests attend. I only saw like 4 people up there. So I get it but i think they could have been more accommodating. They didnt really seem to care that its a reason i chose their hotel. That tells me that they probably really wouldnt care about us as customers at all. Anyway , room wasnt anything special but its still a solid choice if staying at Jax beach for a wedding there. Clean and pretty property. Breakfast food was good.

Event Hotel Do Not Stay Here

First off this is a very old hotel which I understand, but the rooms have no character I get they are smaller rooms. Dirty floors had to wear my shoes all over the room. The bed was so uncomfortable felt like you were in a hammock. Saw a roach on top of the fridge that was in our room. I come from Florida so I get there can be roaches but this was a German cockroach which mostly means dirty. The room was overlooking the courtyard which would be fine except you can hear everything! There was a party until 9 which no big deal but then we were below the bar so you could hear them breaking down the live music and such coming down the stairs. You could hear everything! We got no sleep in this hotel at all not relaxing. I would say great for an event but not good for sleeping. Great Location easy to get to everything, but I just thought it being a historic hotel they would keep up with it more. Make the rooms nicer and charge a little more if you have to. I have stayed in many historic hotels and houses and it wasn't nearly as bad as this stay. Would not recommend! Go party there and leave!

I really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is 100 years old. So if you want a cookie cutter big Chain experience, this probably isn’t for you. The hotel has wooden floors, and you walk out the back door literally onto the beach. Mary, the staff member on duty when I checked in was incredibly friendly. If there’s a wedding going on during the weekend, it will be noisy because the building is small and old. But it’s unbelievably charming. I stayed in two hotels while I was in Jacksonville. The first was the Hyatt downtown, the seconds this Hotel. I stayed in the Hyatt first. If I had stayed in this one first, I would never have left. I would stay again in a heartbeat. It’s just that vintage-feeling and so very lovely.

Let me just say that i had tried for over a year to stay at this hotel,it was always booked. I booked this stay 3 months ago. I was there in town for medical reasons, i was unaware that this hotel has no/zero parking spaces for their guests, except for a strip mall across the street. I was there during tropical storm conditions. There was also no noise restrictions as the party went all night. Window in the shower is frosted however you can definitely see your neighbors in the shower. Water was draining slowly, removed the bathtub drain and it was full of hair. I also was given 1 washcloth and 1 towel for 3 nights. And the only working outlets were at the bathroom sink and the TV. Do not recommend. Very disappointed.

I loved the ocean view upstairs in the bar and the exterior area, and the history of the place, It is unique. I wish there was an overhang at the entrance to protect you from rain when checking in, unloading and loading your car. The parking was across the street so it felt a bit sketching not being on private property. But that wasn't, as it turned out, a big deal. Some deep cleaning overall is needed. Particularly in the room I was in had dark dust/mold on the ac vent, and the ceiling fan was dusty. That being said everything else was clean and the furniture nice, bed comfortable. Everyone was very nice and helpful. Also, the ac works great and the fridge even has a little freezer which helps keep your ice. The room needed at least one chair. An ice machine on each floor would be nice but they do bring it to you on request--just different. The day I checked in there was an event of 300 people related to a local surf contest. Though very loud, it started at 5 pm, it was amusing and full of very polite young folks having a great time. The good news is the hotel has a hard stop at 10:30 pm. It literally went from the biggest loudest party one minute to complete silence the next right at the stop time. That is amazing!!!! I had a few friends visit that over the course of a two night stay and we had a blast in my room and in the bar. It's a great hotel for people who love the ocean, historical buildings, are open minded, and not expecting one of the "top 40" hotel experiences.

This is the 2nd time I have stayed at Casa Marina. Its history and the fact that is about 100 yds from the ocean were the biggest draws. The rooftop bar and its wonderful view were also an added benefit. The staff at the front desk were great - helpful and focused on making your stay memorable. I sing its praises to friends, and as a Floridian, I will be returning after our season winds down.

Understand from locals the hotel is getting updated later this year- definitely needs it. It was adequate but needs new carpet, towels and bathroom upgrades. Please don’t lose the history- rooftop bar was amazing!

I love the beachfront location! The old hotel has charm, but there were issues with the TVs and bathroom! The TV in the living room had no sound and the bedroom TV had sound with a fuzzy picture! The bathroom needs a better showerhead and a hook on the door to hang clothes! Some of the electrical outlets didn’t work! There was not a smoke detector in the bedroom! Breakfast was okay! The Wedding I attended at the location was wonderful! Also the bedroom in room 215 could use a blackout curtain.
