Renaissance St. Augustine Historic Downtown Hotel

For golf enthusiasts, the hotel offers unparalleled access to world-class courses, particularly the legendary fairways of World Golf Village just a short drive away. Golf history comes alive at the King & Bear—the world's only course co-designed by legends Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus—where the front nine's open, links-style layout pays homage to St. Augustine's historic character before transitioning to a traditional Florida back nine framed by centuries-old oaks and loblolly pines. Equally impressive is the Slammer & Squire course, designed by Bobby Weed in collaboration with Hall of Famers Sam Snead and Gene Sarazen, where carefully preserved natural wetlands and woodlands create both challenge and beauty. After a day on these championship fairways, return to Castillo Craft Bar + Kitchen, where regional flavors and artisanal cocktails rejuvenate tired golfers in an atmosphere that celebrates St. Augustine's heritage and its evolving culture.
