Casablanco
A carefully kept home with taste, history, and a slower pace built in.
Inside Lincolnville’s preserved Victorian streetscape, just minutes from everything St. Augustine has to offer — and somehow still quiet. The kind of place where you stop checking your phone.

The Experience
This isn’t a hotel. There’s no front desk, no checkout reminder, no itinerary. It’s a beautifully kept house, a city worth getting lost in, and time that actually slows down.
“The first moment in a long time where time felt like it was standing still.”
The City
America's Little Europe
St. Augustine isn’t what people picture when they think of Florida.
Founded in 1565, it’s the oldest continuously occupied European-established city in America — and it feels like it. Narrow cobblestone corridors, Spanish colonial architecture, boutique shops, wine bars, and restaurants spill into each other along streets that have been alive for more than 450 years. Walkable. Bikeable. Utterly unlike anywhere else in the country.
America's oldest city
Founded in 1565 by Spanish explorer Pedro Menéndez de Avilés.
Walkable & bikeable
The Castillo, Spanish Street, the waterfront, Flagler College — all minutes away.
Boutique everything
Restaurants, wine bars, and local shops just steps from the front door.
More Seville than Florida
Spanish moss, cobblestones, and architecture that feels European.

The Neighborhood
Lincolnville
Casablanco sits in Lincolnville — one of America’s most historically significant and underrecognized neighborhoods. Founded in 1866 by freed slaves after the Civil War and named for President Lincoln, Lincolnville was the heart of St. Augustine’s Black community for generations — a place of resilience, culture, and extraordinary courage.
In the 1960s, Lincolnville became a center of the national Civil Rights Movement. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stayed in homes on these streets. Rev. Andrew Young led night marches from this neighborhood to the Plaza de la Constitución. The demonstrations that took place here played a direct role in the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Today, Lincolnville is home to the ACCORD Civil Rights Museum — Florida’s first — and the Freedom Trail, with over 30 historic homes, churches, and protest sites to explore.
