We recommend that you reserve your space soon as our condo books up very quickly. If you have never been to New Smyrna Beach in the Fall & Winter find out for yourself a locals secret - New Smyrna Beach in the Fall and Winter is one of the best times to visit. No crowds, beautiful weather and lower prices.

OWNERS
Our family lives in nearby Winter Park, FL and has owned this lovely condo for over 20 years. We also own a luxury home in beautiful Deer Valley Resort (Park City, Utah) - view on VRBO listing 55322. We love to share our vacation properties with other families. Our goal is to help create happy memories for our guests. During the 20 years that we have owned vacation properties (3 in New Smyrna Beach and 3 in Deer Valley, Utah at one point) we have received so many wonderful comments from our guests. Every year this condo is reserved for over close to 52 weeks by guests from all over the country. Over the years there have been times where things were not perfect–a child may have had an accident in the pool so the pool needs to be shut down until the pool company can clean it appropriately. Sometimes there has been a leaky toilet in one of the units above our condo so that needs to be repaired before our ceiling is repaired. Sometimes the professional cleaning crew that had been hired by our former property management company had missed something. As with home ownership things will happen but what is most important is what happens when things are not perfect. We always try to make guests happy. If there is a problem it will be addressed. All we ask is for our guests to communicate with us and the issue will be taken care of in a prompt manner.

We hope you too can enjoy our beautiful beach condo.

Great Beach Condo
We had a great stay at this condo. This was our second time staying and will be returning again next summer. The unit is very clean, in a great location, and has a great view of the beach. The unit also has several beach chairs, boogie boards, and plenty of beach towels. The beach is not very crowded in this area which is also a huge plus. Martin is great and would check in from time to time to make sure we were having a great stay or needed anything.
