New Smyrna Beach Vacation Rental condo

After a 2 day drive (12 hrs./day) from Ottawa, Ontario Canada, driving through a snow storm in Virginia they had not seen since 1982, we arrived in NSB late Sunday afternoon. As we opened the door to the condo and saw the view of the ocean from the living room and the master bedroom it had all been worth it!

The condo is nicely decorated and very clean, exactly what you see in these photos and more. The kitchen is fully equiped, anything you can possibly think of, you will find it here.

Both the main and guest bathroom drawers were filled with items you may have forgotten at home.

Another surprise was the front hall closet that was filled with beach chairs, towels, tennis racquets, pails, shovels and the list goes on.

Despite the cooler weather over the Christmas holidays the size of the condo and all its amenities (DVD players, movies and games all made up for it. We even tried our hand at Poker.

The beach was clean and it’s a quiet area to spend with children. We collected plenty of beautiful shells along the beach.

Our only disappointed was that the heater in the outdoor pool was broken for the entire length of our stay, the office staff left the pool area open for Christmas and Boxing day for our use, however, the cooler weather did not permit us to use it.

Despite that, we would not hesitate to return to New Smyrna Beach. Our first experience with VRBO was a great success! We would highly recommend VRBO and this condo to our family and friends. It was a wonderful holiday.

A special thank you to Christine for her attention to detail.

The description of this condo is modest! It was beyond our expectations. We have been coming to NSB for over a decade and have stayed at many a condo and this is by far the best condo on the beach. The owners have thought of your every comfort and convenience, we felt so pampered. The place is large and spacious. The furniture is sooooo comfortable. The kitchen is no doubt the best appointed kitchen on the beach. You won't be disappointed. It is definitely a true home away from home and much more. It was a joy to stay here. I am sure you will love this place as much as our entire family has.

For any of you that are reading this review, I could go on and on about this condo, but I must say something about the beach. We love NSB, it is what draws us to this place year after year. The town is so tranquil. The no drive beach is so beautiful and safe. What's not to love.

The restaurants are moderately priced so a family can definitely take advantage of eating out and not blow the budget. You won't be disappointed.

You can get to all the amusement parks in Orlando and not feel exhausted by staying at the parks. One day at the park of your choice and the rest of the time at the beach. Nothing could be more perfect. You can also hit the Kennedy Space Center for a shuttle or rocket launch. What a sight if you have not witnessed a launch then check out the launch schedule on the KSC site and plan your vacation around one. If you need excitement there are always the attractions in Daytona Beach but you get to come back to NSB for tranquility.

My family enjoys jet skiing in the Halifax River in Daytona. Today we rode the jet skis along with tons of dolphins. They stayed right by our sides. What a sight. Everywhere you looked there were dolphins.

There was also the spotting of manatees at lunch in the river behind JB's Fish Camp. So you don't need to go to SeaWorld to see them, there right here in NSB.

You can also walk the beach at night in search of the turtles coming onshore to lay there eggs, what a sight. My husband also saw a Florida panther one night on the beach, now that was a strange sight.

I am a sheller and I prefer NSB to the famed Sanibel. It seems all the shells in Sanibel are broken but I have found some real beauties in NSB. From starfish so sea urchins my collection just grows and grows. Thank you NSB.

Will we return? You betcha, Will we stay in this condo again? We will definitely return and you should too!
