Ponce Inlet Skyline from the beach. Tallest lighthouse in Florida!!
Location: Ponce Inlet, Florida Central East, Florida, USA (Minutes from Mainstreet Daytona Beach, and Daytona Speedway!) View Map
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Den, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-10)
Keywords: House
Located near the south end of the barrier island that makes up Daytona Beach, this cozy home is the perfect place to lay back and get away from it all. Located on a serenely quiet street, the locale keeps the house quiet both day and night, yet allows you easy access to a variety of sun filled activities. Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway, Ponce Inlet, and the sound of surf on quiet evenings, you will fall in love with the tranquility of the Island Living!
Five miles of wide white sand beach and some of the best surf in the area lie less than a two minute walk out the front door - great for surfing, cycling, kayaking, jogging, walking, or just hanging out. Beach access is a simple walk to a private access ramp. As a tropical breeze caresses this end of the Island year-round, there isn't a bad time to visit! Even in the months of July and August, a sea breeze provides for a pleasant day at the beach.
Deep sea fishing by party boat or captained charter, as well as a great public boat launch are located one mile south of the home. If you love to walk, hit the beach or elevated walkways through nearby Lighthouse Point State Preserve. The low traffic volume and wide sidewalks make the area great for bicycling or rollerblading.
The house is very well appointed, tastefully decorated, and has three bedrooms, and two full baths. The Master bedroom has its own private bath, while the other bath is accessible off of the pool and the other two bedrooms. This vacation home also features two family rooms, dinning room, and a fully-equipped kitchen.
Beds include one king-size (Master Bedroom), one queen, and two twin beds. This home works great for three couples or a small family or couple with visiting guests. The maximum adult occupancy is six persons. Maximum total occupancy is eight.
If you do not feel like sand and surf, take a break in the private pool. The kitchen is conveniently located off the pool. Four televisions, cable with DVD, many bicycles, tandem kayak, and surfboards are available for your enjoyment. All lawn and pool care is owner provided.
Fresh seafood is the fare of choice and several waterfront restaurants are within walking and bicycling distance. If simply relaxing is not enough for you, other area activities within easy reach include: golfing, theme parks, historical sightseeing of beautiful downtown Ormond Beach, mainstreet Daytona, and state park explorations await you down the beautiful coastal highway of A1A.

We stayed here a week, and had a great time at this location. It is a short walk to the beach from the house, or you can drive the short distance to the public parking area at the beach across A1A. We love Ponce Inlet! It is a quiet, low traffic area that we have stayed in several times in the past few years. Steve's house has a nice layout with a pool table and a beautiful pool in the middle of a flower garden. I loved relaxing in the hammock by the pool, and reading and napping there. The house has everything you need for a wonderful stay, and a washer and dryer for your convenience. If you want to stay in a quiet neighborhood that is close to the beach with Daytona nearby, this rental is for you!

We didn't have any issues at all! There was plenty of room/living space. Kitchen was fully stocked with every utensil and appliance you could ever need. Plenty of sheets and towels available. Pool was cleaned regularly. Lots of things to do and lots of room to relax. We were able to walk to the beach from the house and even ventured a little further and walked to the lighthouse. Great area, cozy home. Wonderful place to vacation overall.

We love the location. How nice of you to have books and games for us to use. I am the only one who took advantage of the bikes and I had a wonderful ride this morning on the beach and through the park. Our family enyoyed the pool table, the pool outside, and all the TVs. They have all kinds of kitchen utensils so you can fix anything that you desire. The home is only a few blocks to the ocean or the lighthouse. We enjoyed the deep sea fishing, Critter Fleet , that was right across from the lighthouse. We plan to return again.

Best Vacation Ever

I must say this has been the best vacation we have every experienced. The house is beautiful, well laid out and very reasonable to rent. The neighbourhood is quiet and the neighbours very friendly. We enjoyed walking to the beach, riding the bikes, sitting by the pool and playing billiards. We did not venture out to much to eat, as we were so comfortable at the house making our meals there. Our favourite restaurants were the Inlet Restaurant and Down the Hatch, both within walking distance and have great seafood. Our daughter and son-in-law were very impressed with this house and the area, they really enjoyed their week with us especially at the Tiki Bar at Jerry's Restaurant. We also enjoyed the Daytona races, an experience we will never forget and were able to watch the launch of the Discovery right outside the front door. I would highly recommend this rental. Bugzee, our dog also enjoyed 3 days at the doggie spa while we were at the races. Thank you Steve for being so helpful and making our month long stay so enjoyable. We are looking forwad to a return visit next year.

We really enjoyed our stay in this home. It is very well maintained, the location is wonderful - close to beach, eating, convenience store and the Ponce Inlet Park. The weather was unseasonalby cold so our visits to the beach were limited as was use of the pool and enclosed porch. The neighborhood was very charming, great place to walk the pets or just yourself, felt very safe. The kitchen was fully stocked so cooking was a breeze, the beds very comfortable, lots of hot water for showers and plenty of space (tv room and living room) for various activities. This location is only about an hour away from Orlando so it made it very easy to visit our family over Christmas. We all agreed that this home will stay on the list for another visit.

This house is in an amazing location and in great shape! A couple friends and myself were in town for another friend's wedding and we didn't want to do the hotel thing so we decided renting this house was a great option. Lots of room and all the amenities you need for a pleasant stay. We really liked the quiet setting and the convenient location to the beach. On top of all this the owner was really easy to work with and very helpful. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for an affordable vacation house. Thanks Steve for allowing us to stay at this amazing house and for being extremely helpful!

I was a little worried about renting a home and not knowing what I was getting into or if the house would even be there when we arrived in Florida but I have to tell you that this home is one of the nicest places I have ever rented! The owner is great to work with. Anytime I had questions he promptly got back to me with an answer. The house was clean and had everything you would need. The beds were very comfortable also so it was almost like being at home. If you wanted quiet you could stay at the house by the pool and if you wanted to go do something it was all right up the street. It was only a short walk to the beach too. I would recommend this house to anyone. You will not be disappointed!

Fun Summer Vacation

We had a great week at this house which is just minutes from the beach! The kids loved boogie boarding (provided by owner) in this beautiful area. We loved going down to the lighthouse and climbing to the top which was a blast. The kids also enjoyed learning to play pool (along with actually swimming in the pool in the backyard) as they had never played on a pool table so that was a nice treat. It was really nice to have all of the amenities (washer/dryer, kitchen, grill, etc.) which allowed us to enjoy family meals and take care of everything we needed. Being one floor really helped with the little kids and also my grandma who wouldn't have been able to do the stairs. Definitely recommend the house and the area as a relaxing week at the beach.

We have had the pleasure of vacationing here twice and fell in love with the house and the area. Coming from the hustle and bustle of Atlanta, it's nice to get away to a quiet and relaxing week at the beach. We walk to the Lighthouse every morning and walk on the beach at night. During the day, we enjoy the isolated beach and riding bikes around the peaceful neighborhood. There's great seafood in the area - Aunt Catfish's is a must and for a nearby bite, there's always Down the Hatch. We enjoy sitting by the pool at the house as well as playing billiards and chess throughout the week. We always find the house clean and inviting. We also enjoy cooking and grilling at the house to offset the cost of going out to eat every day. It's convenient to be able to have some comforts of home such as a washer and dryer, full kitchen, multiple bathrooms, TV, wifi, and a backyard. We plan on staying there again and highly recommend it as a vacation spot.
