We were delighted to happen upon the "Consulate" by chance during a tour of Apalachicola. It's a gem of a place, located adjacent to the waterfront in a historic two-story building. There are several suites to choose from. We spent three nights in the "Attache" which over looks the rear garden from a second story deck. The suite is well-furnished,... more

As new grandparents we enjoyed visiting with our son and daughter-in-law and watching our grandson toddle around on the beautiful wood floors.

Touring the coast we arrived at the end of a long day. We were delighted to find such a comfortable, well located, very attractive apartment. It really worked out well. Dinner around the corner at Tamara's (with mother/father in-law and with our 5/7 yr old boys). more

My family (2 adults, 2 teenagers) spent several nights at the Consulate Suites in April '04. We stayed in the suite called The Consul.

The kitchen was very clean (as was the rest of... more
