We are a small, pirate themed hospitality business in Florida. You will be around fun families and couples that are happy about traveling. You must always be positive and friendly.
St. Augustine is a lovely place with a Spanish fort, a harbor full of sparkling sailboats, pleasant weather, and busy nightlife. We provide you with a letter which will allow you to visit most of the attractions of the city for free. We sometimes go on field trips to a nearby Florida spring or hostel in the forest. There is a place nearby that teaches English courses. We provide bicycles you can use.
The hostelis a one of a kind place and always good memories! We have 18+ years of hosting happy travelers and many of them say this was their favorite place.
