Bigger than we thought
The condo is a great space for 2 families. There are are good and not so good points to the place. Good: Great location •Traffic light to turn into condo parking garage road that is also beach access road. • Space was large. Big enough for 2 families, with kids sharing rooms. Two primary bedrooms for adults. •Kitchen was large and clean •Washer and dryer worked great •Bathrooms were spacious •Balcony was large •Beds were super comfortable •Roll out beds available if needed •Plenty of seating and comfortable Not so good: •Min. supplies left. •2 dishwashing pods for an entire week •1 extra trash bag •smallest dishwashing soap container I have ever seen. •1 roll paper towels •2 rolls of TP per bathroom •1/2 box Kleenex •Pots and pans were old and used •No cereal bowls •4 extra small beach towels for entire house •Lint trap in dryer was super full and hasn't been emptied in weeks. Fire hazard •kitchen sink clogged 2nd night and needed a plumber to be fixed. Gross stuff that we had not put in sink came up. •Rugs can be cleaned or replaced. •Patio table was filthy •Patio glass needed cleaning. Bird poo everywhere •Light switches were very confusing. Couldn't figure out how to turn on primary bedroom fan and main light. •One designated parking spot. The other one is first come and hope you get it. Don't recommend going during Jeep week! LOL Overall the place was nice. However, a few more everyday essentials should be available.

Belinda, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciate the review. Regarding the starter supplies we give you, they are just that, something to get you started.This was also on the supplements sent with your reservation confirmation. We do expect our guests will go to the grocery stores that are close by for the supplies they need. It would not be resonable for us to try to anticipate what a group of up to 12 may need. In a condo rental you are responsible for your own groceries Regarding parking that was also explained in the reservation supplement regarding parking. I was in and out of the building several times and whille it was busy, always found parking in the garage. There are also 2 levels of parking, which your check in agent would have explained to you. On the kitchen sink when we got the call there was an issue we had it taken care of with in 1 day. Frankly we haven't had any kitchen problems, so I don't know what got down there. Thanks for staying with us!

Annual Family Vacation
We were not sure that we would like being in Daytona after staying in Flagler for the past 12 years but this condo was wonderful. It is very spacious and gave us plenty of areas to gather as a family. The large balcony is so nice for morning coffee! The initial check-in which was a little lengthy because we had never stayed there before and the ramp to the beach was closed. But public beach access is just outside the garage. We will be back!

Perfect for our needs!
This property is beautiful and centrally located right on the beach. Just a short drive from restaurants and other activities. We felt very safe in and around the building and had all of the amenities we wanted. It was not overran with spring breakers and everyone we interacted with was very nice. Everything was open on the property, with the exception of the ramp to the beach but it was easy to get to the beach and we were told ahead of time. The pool was so nice- clean and it was warm, even during a couple of chilly days. Our condo was a large space with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group. We had a gorgeous view. Dennis was a pleasure to work with and checked in with us throughout our stay. April helped us get settled in and was quick to respond to our questions. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat if we make it back to the area!

Needs Tender Loving Care
Very surprised seeing 5 star ratings and walking into the master shower covered in mold and worn away caulking. The hall bathroom shower curtain was covered in mold and there was a hole in the ceiling all the way through to pipes we had to stuff paper in it so nothing would crawl through, damaged walls that needed desperate repair. The floors were not cleaned making our feet black after walking around a bit, cups and food in-between couch and under tables. Not much in kitchen utensils some were broken or rusted. Had to clean glasses that were put in cabinet dirty. Property manager shut me down told me I needed to take it up with April who is over housekeeping. Ummm not my responsibility....and too much needed repair and not a quick fix. The location is great, April who welcomed us was very nice and apologetic over the conditions but the condo has not been cared for in a good while. I've stayed in many 4 bedroom vacation condos, townhouses etc. This by far was very disappointing for the money paid.

During this guest's stay I came over and re programmed the living room cable box. That took about 20 minutes and during that time none of the items that they were critical of were mentioned. April, our head housekeeper said the guest texted her with an extensive list of issues on check out. We would have been happy to resolve things during there stay. However when April asked about it, the guest said they didn't want to be bothered! The list was taken seriously and extra cleaning was done when they checked out. Regarding the hall bath ceiling there have been some leak issues with the unit above, the small hole was to put a camera up there looking for the leak. It had no effect on the use of the shower, it's only the size of a quarter! It wasn't closed because the issue above had not been resolved. These are individually owned units and I have to work through the other unit's owner & property manager. This guest had a large group and 2 dogs. We were notified by building management during there stay that they washed dog feces off the balcony! The way our building is designed the second floor balcony extends out from the rest of the building. That feces fell on people laying out on the second floor balcony. They also saw where it was coming from! Building management asked us to contact the guest who denied it. Now we have a huge dog walking area on that side of the building that you can't miss. So I don't understand why the guest didn't take there dogs out. I think this guest was perturbed that we called them and that's why they are leaving this negative review.

Beautiful Unit
Large unit was spacious for our group of 9 adults and teens. Unit has everything you need from bath towels, beach towels, kitchen pots and pans, 2 coffee makers and bedding. We did have an ongoing problem with the dryer that ended up with a new dryer being installed then some duct work cleaning over a 3 day period, but Dennis and April were fast to respond to the problem. Property was well maintained and pool and hottub were wonderful. Would recommend!

Loved the condo
The condo was spacious, plenty of room without getting in anybody’s way. Loved it! If I had one complaint it would be that some of the mattresses are ready to be replaced but the sheets are everything! Will use them again. The owners seem to have tried to cover everything, they even had a slow cooker in the kitchen.

Gorgeous view!!
This property is a amazing find. Plenty of room for our 10 person group. Was actually better in person then the pictures. We were surprised to find that there was new floors throughout living room/kitchen area very nice. The view was amazing, the condo was stocked with everything we needed. The grill was amazing and is a awesome touch. We used the grill at least 4 or 5 times. Nothing like grilling a few burgers while you watch the ocean. My only negative was nothing to do with the property, but we were unaware of trucker weekend and I must say if you are looking for a nice quiet vacation please take my advice and do not book that weekend. Trucks stuck on the beach, trucks that are way to loud, trucks with actual PA systems in the truck bed blaring music at all hours of the night that you can hear inside the condo. But all in all the condo and location is great. Would recommend everyone interested in booking this condo to do it!! You won’t regret it! Thanks to Dennis, Carmen, and April who checked us in. We had a amazing time.

Thanks for the review! Glad you enjoyed the place. Regarding Truck Weekend, it's normally in late April or May, not June!! Last year it was cancelled due to COVID. It was a surprise to all of us that the promoter would schedule this over a summer family vacation weekend. Fortunately they were leaving by Sunday and totally gone by Monday.

Beautiful Place on Daytona Beach
From the moment we arrived were met by gracious lady who showed us every thing we needed to know about the complex. The condo itself was magnificent exactly like the pictures. So much room for my family and the view was wonderful. Enjoyed our week stay to the fullest. If I ever decided to return to Daytona Beach again will definitely stay here.

This was a beautiful condo!
The condo was absolutely beautiful and had a very nice view of the ocean however it wasn’t what I would call “ocean front” It was more to the side of the building but you still had a nice view from the large balcony. The condo was very very clean! There went as many towels and washcloths as I would have expected for 8 people but luckily there’s was a washer and dryer. Overall I would stay here again. It was a great place for our family vacation.

Fantastic condo, great location!
The condo was perfect for our family- 4 adults, 3 kids, and could’ve easily accommodated more. The pictures are totally accurate, the condo is spacious and a pleasant space to spend time in. Pool was super-heated which was awesome since the weather was so-so. Easy access to a nice beach, plenty of nice sand to set up our chairs and beach towels. Kids had a great time playing in the surf. Easy checkin, clean and well equipped. Would gladly rent again. Thanks!

Perfect for extended family vacation!
We had a great time, condo was even bigger and nicer in person! We had parents and two families with kids. Twin beds were perfect for a couple of the kids and the extra rollaway twins were great for the rest. Balcony with ocean view was great and fully stocked kitchen. We only ate out a couple times and made big meals all the other days/meals. Pretty easy trip to Orlando for a day at Disney and good restaurants/fun outings close by including dolphin boat tour, marine center and public beach and light house. Outside grill on patio was a great touch too! Highly recommend!
