The upstairs residence of a 1940s San Marco home, fully renovated in 2025. It has two bedrooms, a full kitchen, a bright living room under the eaves of the old house and off-street parking. The river is one block away and Baptist MD Anderson is about a 7-minute walk. Guests return to it year after year for work trips, family visits and monthlong stays.

The space

San Marco Suite occupies the entire second floor. Two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen, sit off a generous living room with a sofa bed for two more.

The 2025 renovation brought new plumbing and showers, new electrical service, high-speed Wi-Fi and a dedicated LAN port at the workstation, plus updated appliances and furnishings, alongside the home's original hardwood and period details. The full kitchen handles real cooking, from weekday breakfasts to a family dinner.

Getting in and parking

The entire second-floor residence is yours, reached by its own exterior staircase with keyless self check-in. You get reserved off-street parking behind the house and use of the shared courtyard seating.

The neighborhood

You're on a residential street in San Marco, one of Jacksonville's original riverfront neighborhoods. Walk one block to the St. Johns River for sunsets and about 12 minutes to San Marco Square for restaurants, coffee, a two-story Publix and the shops. The downtown medical campus (Baptist MD Anderson, Nemours, Wolfson Children's) is about 7 minutes on foot.

It's an easy walk to the hospitals, the river and San Marco Square. Downtown is a few minutes by car, EverBank Stadium is 2.4 miles, and Mayo Clinic and JAX airport are each about 25 minutes by car.

Good to know

  • The Suite is up a flight of exterior stairs that some guests find steep; for limited mobility, choose Urban Oasis on the first floor.
  • Free shared laundry on site (commercial Speed Queen washer and dryer). Bring your preferred detergent.
  • You're in Jacksonville's urban core, so some city noise is typical. Blackout shades are provided.
  • Urban Oasis is directly below, and sound can carry in a 1940s home, so both floors keep quiet hours.
  • You may hear freight trains or river horns early in the morning.
  • Pack ’n play and high chair on request.

Questions

+Is San Marco Suite a good fit for limited mobility?

It's up a flight of exterior stairs that some guests find steep. If anyone in your group has mobility needs, choose Urban Oasis on the first floor: no interior stairs, and two exterior steps to the front door because the 1940s house sits above grade.

+Is there laundry?

Yes, free. San Marco Suite guests share a commercial Speed Queen washer and dryer on site at no extra cost. Bring your preferred detergent.
