Stayed 3 years ago the white orchid located at A1A at 11th Avenue in Flagler Beach. At that time, we rated as 5 out of 5 stars. This past weekend we stayed (30th anniversary) and I would say it would be generous to give a four star rating, which i take very seriously as a Google "Local Guide". We booked unknowingly that golden magnolia isn't the same as it was when it was white magnolia. The hot mineral pool, delicious fresh cooked, made to order breakfast 1st thing in the morning and bakery offerings, and the afternon social hour with light offerings in main house were no longer a thing. All the cozy homey furnishings are gone in main house That was a huge draw for us, for our 3 previous stays. And unfortunately the grounds were seriously in need of the landscaper and pressure washer, & some maintenance work.
Our room, thoughs clean having most of the usual amenities, like mini shower gel, soap & body lotion, there was no television, bottled water in the room. We did enjoy using the private patio at the Famingo Room, especially at night when you can see all the stars on a clear night. The location cannot be beat. I'm rooting for the new management to bring it back to the 5 star place we once knew. Thank you for allowing us to make the best of it this weekend. We still had a nice time but can't help but to compare.
Thank you.
