The WHALE home is an oceanfront, premium property, with a spectacular view of the water from all East-facing windows. It is an ideal location, just a half of a mile walk along the beach to the town’s well renowned ‘Flagler Avenue’. Flagler Ave is the most lively and popular strip of retailers and restaurants in NSB, where vacationers can shop and dine, grab a cocktail or even rent some beach bikes and continue to explore all the wonders New Smyrna Beach has to offer! The layout of this three-story home consists of 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, ideal for a large party, big family or friend gathering. The ground level has its own studio apartment style layout. This includes a quaint dining area, king sized bed and TV and a full bathroom which includes a jetted spa tub and shower in addition to the standard toilet and sink. A washer and dryer are conveniently located on the ground floor inside the garage. The garage offers one parking bay, suitable for a low-profile vehicle due to a structural ceiling beam just under 5’11”. Outside, enjoy ample patio seating on the deck, with direct access to the beach just steps away. The home has also been recently updated with fresh exterior paint, a brand-new roof, and new garage doors. Up the stairs, the second floor is considered the primary social area. The main living space is located on this level, which features an open-floor plan that includes the living, kitchen and dining room. The wide-open space enables those cooking to interact freely with other members of the party without the confinement of walls. The floor to ceiling windows on this level span the entire East-side of the house, where guests can enjoy watching the ocean waves and wildlife from the comfort of the large curved couch. These grand windows are fully operable and can be opened to enjoy a natural ocean breeze if desired during the cooler months, earlier mornings or late evenings. During the warmer summer days, retreat from the sun and take advantage of cool air conditioning while enjoying a meal here or watching TV on the large flat screen with an incredible view that enables you to simultaneously search the blue horizon for indigenous pelicans and dolphins. You might even get lucky and spot the more elusive manatee, shark, or even a whale! The second floor also has two very large bedrooms and can sleep up to 8 guests on this level alone! One of the bedrooms features two full beds and the other has two queens. Both of these bedrooms have their own TV sets with cable, and the Wi-Fi extends into these rooms as well. The final feature of this level is the single full-sized bathroom that includes a tub shower, sink and toilet. Last but most certainly not least, the third floor consists of two bedrooms and two bathrooms. One of these bedrooms is the master suite, which has one king bed, Flat screen TV with cable and Wi-Fi, a seating area, a treadmill, a full bath that includes a jetted tub separate from the shower, and finally a small balcony overlooking the great Atlantic Ocean. The additional bedroom on the third floor has its own separate bathroom that contains a tub, toilet and sink. This final bedroom has one queen bed. The spacious interior design in addition to a large beachfront deck makes this vacation rental the ideal choice for large parties and social gatherings. Step straight off the patio out onto the sandy beach and go for a scenic walk or take a dip in the sea. Location is key; not only is this home ocean front, but it’s also just a short and beautiful half-mile walk to the town’s center Flagler Avenue! After a long day of fun activities out on the beach right out back, guests can retreat to the comfort of the interior of this three-story home and still enjoy the impeccable view. There will be so much to enjoy during your beach getaway, making for an incredible experience.

The house is ideally located close enough to Flagler to walk to restaurants and attractions but just far enough away from the z a heavier beach crowds that gather near Flagler Ave. The home is comfortable and has plenty of space to spread out. The beach is just a few steps off the porch. The porch was great for hanging out with the family enjoying the sea breeze and listening ocean surf. We look forward to coming back. ##### John C. Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Valerie S. 16 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location but needs some care This home was attractive with comfortable beds and good-sized rooms. The location is great, very close to the sand. My family of 13 with three generations stayed for a week. While images are representative, they don't tell the entire story; this home is roomy but really needs basic maintenance and care. It very much looks like a rental property with a minimal amount of money invested in upkeep. There are two flights of stairs in the property, which can be difficult for those of limited mobility, but there are also several random steps around that cause tripping - some are a few inches tall and some are regular step height. We had a few in our party fall and several almost fall; because the floor is all the same color with no contrast on the steps, it is difficult to distinguish a single step in various areas. We put brightly colored removable painter's tape on the steps all over the house that really helped to see where the edges were. The furniture in most of the rooms is minimal quality and doesn't always fit what you might want to store in it, and there are not many hangers in the few closets available (the primary "wardrobe" only had 4 plastic hangers, which we supplemented with a package we bought). The only shade on the patio is a table umbrella and a portable canopy with one leg broken. Our family had a great time there, but I wouldn't rent this property again.
