Enjoy front-row seating for the sunrise every morning at Beachdrifter 406! Comfortably sleeping four in two bedrooms plus a deluxe bonus queen-size air mattress-great way to enjoy the best view in Jacksonville without breaking the bank! When you sit out on the balcony, listening to the softly rolling waves and watching the sparkling sea and wide sands, you'll feel the workday stress melting away and a sense of peace and calm descending. Ahhh -- vacation! Step inside the sliding glass doors to the balcony, which occupy one entire wall of the living room, and you're in a light, cool space with comfortable seating and a TV with DVD player. You can easily see the ocean from this room, and there's plenty of room to stretch out and get comfortable. In our open-plan condo, the dining area is just beyond the living room, a simple table set for four. The truth is, meals very seldom get eaten here -- the lure of the balcony is just too strong! So, if you like, convert the dining table into a game center or set up your laptop (you have free wireless Internet at Beachdrifter 406) and stay connected. Adjacent to the dining area is our spotlessly clean, convenient kitchen, with granite countertops, sparkling appliances, and all the cookware, dishes and utensils you need to prepare and serve family meals. Of course, if you're eating out this vacation, you may get more use out of the microwave, dishwasher, blender, ice-maker and coffeemaker -- but either way, our kitchen is fully equipped. Just make a grocery run at the start of your vacation and you're good to go! You'll want everyone to get a great night's sleep every night of your vacation, which is why you'll love the bedrooms at Beachdrifter 406. The primary suite is long, spacious, and relaxing, with an ultra-comfortable king-sized bed, new HDTV and DVD player, brand new desk and lamp for work and reading, and lovely ocean views. There's a little table and chairs in front of the sliding glass doors to the balcony, so you can enjoy that first cup of coffee in the sanctuary of your bedroom, gazing at the Atlantic. Or, if you bring your laptop, you can even turn it into a computer table -- you have free wireless Internet at Beachdrifter 406! The primary bath is beautifully tiled with traventine, with a walk-in shower. In addition, we have another full bathroom at Beachdrifter 406, with both a shower and tub option, convenient to the second bedroom as well as to the living area. And you'll find all the towels and bedding you need waiting for you here, as well as a washer and dryer to keep everything fresh. Come as you are -- we've got you covered! The second bedroom contains 2 twin beds, soft carpeting, and plenty of storage space. This is perfect for small children, for the bright window is easy to cover up for afternoon naps, and there's plenty of space to spread out toys, arrange shells and sharks' teeth collected from the beach, and play! But the best part of Beachdrifter is its location. The beautiful natural sand dunes of Jacksonville Beach are just below our balcony, and a private wooden walkway leads down to the sugary sands. This is a family-friendly beach with wide sands, rolling waves, and balmy sunshine. Water sports equipment is available for rental nearby, or you can enjoy the water the old-fashioned way by bodysurfing, boogie-boarding, and sunbathing! The Beachdrifter condominium complex is quiet and friendly, with a glittering kidney-shaped swimming pool and free covered parking. You're convenient to all the Jacksonville attractions here, from fine dining and shopping to sightseeing. Come enjoy the beach. Jacksonville Beachdrifter 406's location is convenient to Mayo Clinic. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Internet - Available in the condo: Internet access ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Lift - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Unit size: 1,000 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kenneth D. 3 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good condo on the beach The unit we stayed in was very nice. As other reviews noted there is some significant construction going on in the building (e.g. half the balcony railings are removed)- it didn't bother us too much, due to our schedule and, I think the construction holiday schedule. (They were working while we were there, but whatever they were doing this past week, we hardly heard them) ##### Kenneth D. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roy M. 22 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Not to happy Summer prices for winter stay. Was disappointed that major repairs were ongoing to outside. Lots of workman and noise. Should have been informed of impact of the construction to patio railings. Lots of metal chipping and grinding. Difficult to enjoy beautiful beach view and hear the surf. ##### Roy M. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### robert m. 17 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Great view, decent place, lousy mgt. Took 2 days to get any response, then another 2 days for resolution of easy stuff- extra towels and TV. Owner had a lock on the TVs so couldn’t add apps , took 2 days to get fire sticks delivered. Elevator to bldg went down half way through, never received a response to 4 days of questions/complaints. Left 3 days early as wife had a hip problem and couldn’t do stairs. Place was ok but needs updating and with lousy mgt, stay elsewhere! ##### robert m. Stayed 9 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Angela M. 5 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### My Stay The location was awesome! The unit was more dated than appeared online and needs upgrades to all furniture and appliances. The dryer did not work....very disappointing. And the water pressure was bad. Toilet would barely flush! Parental locks set on cable tv! Could not access many shows. Good communication with property mgr but terrible/no communication with owner. Would not stay at this particular unit again. ##### Angela M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Rhea B. 8 Apr 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Communication, location, listing accuracy #### Property was surrounded with junk, trash, and debris Unfortunately, our experience was poor. There was major roof construction ongoing during our stay. We had no notice that any work was being done during our stay. Junk, trash, debris, and dirt fell from the roof onto our balcony such that we couldn't sit outside or leave the balcony door open during our stay. I swept so much that my son remarked that they should be paying us. The same junk and materials and dirt fell into the pool below. I did not see one person use the pool the whole week. It was very gross. The construction crew workers could not have cared less about their debris assault. My son asked me to report to you that the pool "sucks." We had zero notice of this major construction (industrial equipment and vehicles and beeps, and loud booming noises from 8 to 5 every day). The ceiling noise was alarming. I imagine it will be ongoing over the summer so heads up!! The unit itself was fine, roomy enough for a family of 4. However you may want to skip over this unit/beachdrifter property this summer as the junk, trash, and noise caused by construction appears to be an ongoing and big project. ##### Rhea B.

Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kathleen D. 11 Jun 2021 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### NO As soon as you walk in in you are met with stale mildew from the carpets in the bedrooms. Kids room had popcorn falling and water damage on ceiling. I tried to clean behind the beds as they were disgusting. Vacuum did not work so we called it in and I helped clean with house keeping by moving the beds. Even house keeping said "this place hasn't been deep cleaned in awhile." Second morning I woke up with terrible sinuses and hoarse. Then my husband then my daughter. Coughed the rest of the vacation making it 3 out of 4 of our family got sick. We called over 5 times and did not get a maintenance manger till the day we were leaving. The master bed was dipped so far in that you couldn't sleep on your stomach. The hose in the sink was backed up and the toilet kept running. The carpets need to be ripped up and we wouldn't be surprised that black mold would be found ... that is how sick we got. This was supposed to be our last family trip before my husband left for the summer training soldiers in the National Guard. He has slept in some of the worst places and he could not stay a night longer. We tried to find an alternative place but we had our dog and/or leave earlier but my daughter had a special birthday at the zoo. Kids and I slept at our family friends 2 of the nights. We left as soon as we could a day early. Needless to say, our last family time together was not a good one. We are trying to work out a resolution with the management company but as of now nothing appropriate. ##### Kathleen D. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Suzi G. 26 May 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Beach Condo The location and layout of this condo were excellent. The only reason I didn't give it 5 starts was because the toilet seat in the 2nd bathroom was broken and falling off when we arrived. Management was very responsive and had maintenance replace the seat within a few hours of my reporting it. However, I have to wonder why the cleaning crew hadn't reported it prior to our stay? The hinge clearly was rusted out. I certainly don't expect to find a broken toilet seat when paying over $300 per night. Otherwise, the condo was very clean, comfortable and had stunning views onto to the pool and beach. ##### Suzi G. Stayed 4 nights in May 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Cindy G. 24 May 2021 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### 3rd time in that condo You would think that you would get a discount after staying in the same condo for 3 visits. The bed headboard had 1 inch of dust on it. The shower curtain liner had black mold all over it.. The place needs a good cleaning and a few up dates on the decorating. I think I will choose another place to spend my birthday and vacation. ##### Cindy G. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessie W., Savannah, GA 22 May 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Our second visit was as great as the first! My mother and I stayed here for a long Mother's Day weekend and this was our second time staying at this location. We booked it again because the place is ideally located, with all the comforts we needed. The view is wonderful and the beach and pool are just steps away! It feels like a home away from home and we hope to stay again! ##### Jessie W. Stayed 3 nights in May 2021
