Bayfront Westcott House Bed and Breakfast

About Bayfront Westcott House Bed and Breakfast

History, mystery, and romance are what bring people to St. Augustine, FL. Its dreamy historic downtown bayfront location, vintage charm, stellar customer service, and unparalleled amenities are what attract people to this luxury bed and breakfast. Located on Avenida Menendez, overlooking Matanzas Bay, this historic home was built in 1880 as a lavish private residence for Dr. John Westcott, well known for his prominent military career, interests in transportation and politics, and research efforts in the cause and cure of yellow fever. Dr. Westcott passed away in 1888. His only daughter, Rachel, lived in the home until her death. The house changed hands a few times over the years and saw its fair share of soirées amongst St. Augustine’s elite. In the 1970s, it was converted into a guest house and has been entertaining tourists and travelers ever since. Today, Westcott is a 16-room, full-service luxury bed and breakfast. When you have such well-rounded, personable, and social individuals on your team as we do, it stands to reason that they bring their "A" game to the job, but the Bayfront Westcott House professionals aren't just great at their jobs. They are amazing individuals, with emphasis on "individuals". Each have carved out their niche in life, in St. Augustine, and at Westcott House. Their goal every day is to make sure that our guests love St. Augustine and Westcott as much as they do. We are always looking for energetic and social hospitality individuals to join our busy bayfront team. If that sounds like you, your next career opportunity might be here!
