We spent a full month at this beautiful, neat and well organized condo. Everything we could possibly need was right there! Judy and Jark are gracious and responsive owners. We were fortunate to meet them while we were there. We would not hesitate to rent this condo again!

My family of five spent a week in this comfortable condominium across the road from the beach. The condominium was spacious and had all the amenities listed including beach towels and beach chairs. I can't think of anything the condo didn't have that we needed. The beach was great too because it was not over crowded and we had room to play. I would definetly rent this condo again.

The condo was very neat and clean and had just about everything we needed. It's also in a very convenient location too, in the middle of Flagler and Daytona. Beautiful beach view from the unit and don't worry about crossing A-1A to get to the beach; it's not bad at all, plus there is a street light at the crossing in case you want to visit the beach at night. There are miles and miles of well-kept sidewalks to run, walk, or bike and the neighborhoods are very nice too.The owners kept in touch with us throughout the whole process and provided exceptional customer service. Do visit Ponce's Inlet; they have a lighthouse that you can climb to the top and the inlet itself has a neat little beach. Also, make the trip to St. Augustine to visit the fort and the lighthouse there; the fort was featured on an episode of Ghost Adventures and is supposed to be haunted. If your looking for great outlet malls to visit, go to the Premium Outlets in Orlando; they are awesome! The outlet malls in St. Augustine are nice and the Volusia Mall has some neat stores too. We would definitely recommend this condo to friends and family and we would love to stay here again. One last little note, Ormond Beach was never crowded, making it ideal to lay out in the sun without someone bothering you. Great, nice, clean, and convenient place to stay!

Owner response:Thank you for submitting your comments highlighting the immediate surrounding area as well as the many day trip destinations. I'm glad you enjoyed the beautiful moonlit beach walks. Our favorite time of day at the condo is sunset and the serenity of just watching as the light dims and the moon rises over the ocean and the stars come into view.

This condo was awesome. It was well stocked with every item you could possibly need. It was the clean and tidy and just felt like home. I had an ocean view which was awesome. The pool was beautiful and the people in the condo were just amazing and friendly. The owners (judy and Jark) were very helpful in answering all my questions when I had them and for that I thank them very much. I would definetly recommend this condo to anyone going to flordia. If I ever go back to flordia this would be the first place i would check out. Thanks a million

The whole idea of renting a vacation condo was totally new to us. Didn't know what to expect but after reading so many positive reviews we decided to give it a try. Judy and Jark the owners could not of been more helpful. I believe renting from the owner as verses a rental company is a big plus. To put it as simply as possible THEY CARE and go out of there way to make you feel at home. We wanted for nothing. This place is fully equipped with quality bedding and linens, and clean is the word. If you are thinking of a condo vacation in Ormond Beach this is it !! Just too many positives to list. Even on the first floor the ocean view was good and parking the car at the front door very convenient. No Regrets

From the minute you walk through the door, you feel like you're at home! This condo is very spacious, bright and airy and nicely appointed. It's extremely clean and organized. The beds are comfortable, bathrooms are spotless and the loaction is perfect. The balcony is large and allows for many hours of relaxation. There is a full size washer and dryer, iron and full sized ironing board. The kitchen is easy to work in and fully stocked! Beach equipment is available too, including beach towels. I LOVE the fact that this condo is located on the ground level. It's an outside corner condo which allows for a larger floorplan and the convenience of no stairs! You do need to walk across A1A though to access the beach. But we found this to be no trouble (even with a 5 year old) as we were there in a few minutes. There's a hose located right outside the condo too so you can wash off any sand you may have accumulated on your feet. I should also mention that even though this condo is located right next to A1A, it's very quiet. We enjoyed a couple new restraunts this time: Lagerheads in Ormond and Carribean Jacks in Daytona. Our regular favorites: Peach Valley Cafe in Ormond, Pagano's Pizzeria in South Daytona and High Tides in Flagler Beach. I appreciate the fact that Jark & Judy take good care of their condo and give such high level of customer service. I can't see myself and my family staying anyplace else. I highly recommend this condo!

Owner response:We strive to offer this same experience of feeling "at home" to all who rent our condo as well as making the reservation process easy,comfortable and secure. We appreciate each family and couple who stay and expecially their confidance in booking repeat vacations.

What a great comfortable condo! This is the 2nd time in 4 years that we have stayed at your Condo. It makes you feel at home, all the comforts of home and everything you need is here. The condo is very clean, the beds comfortable. Love the book with all the info on the area. I was very lucky when just searching for a place to stay 5 years ago and found the web site to search for a vacation rental. This being on the 1st floor and across from the beach adds to the convience. And to boot great people to rent from, the owners make you feel welcome. Thank you for sharing your home

Owner response:We're looking forward to welcoming you back for your next vacation to "Mrs Judy's house" as your grandson calls our home. We value you and your comments.

This is our second time staying at this condo. We absolutely love it!! It is by far the cleanest and well stocked place we have ever stayed! Judy is wonderful in answering your questions and going above and beyond to give you information about the area. The beach and condo are not crowded and it is a wonderful place for a family to stay! We will definitely be back!!

Owner response:Thanks for posting your comments regarding your stay at our condo...I appreciate your review especially as I know getting home from a vacation means piles of laundry, restocking the pantry and getting the family back on schedule, a very busy time. We will welcome you back whenever you wish to come....we appreciate you! Sincerely, Judy

My family and I stayed in this condo from July 18-22. It is fully equipped in every aspect, from the kitchen, linens, full size washer/dryer and beach "stuff". We had a great time and loved the first floor location. The balcony was a great place to enjoy the afternoon after a day at the beach, it is shaded and a beautiful breeze. The condo is also very clean and spacious! I would highly recommend this to anyone.

We had a wonderful stay here over the week of July 4th. It was everything promised and then some! The condo was clean, well appointed, quiet, and comfortable. The view is truly beautiful, and the ocean is so close, you can hear the waves as you fall asleep. I have rented condos in this area before, but I have NEVER seen one that was as well stocked- I felt like I was in my own kitchen! Thanks so much for a lovely vacation- we will definitely return in future!

We enjoyed our stay in this wonderful beach Condo. It is tastefully decorated , clean, comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. Lots of items for the beach are also provided especially beach towels. The beach is just across the road and is miles of beautiful sandy coastline. Every restaurant we chose we had good food but we especially like the Olive Gardan in Ormond Beach & Bubba Gumps in Daytona. While we were there we were fortunate enough to see the last launch of the space shuttle Endeavour, which was fantastic for us. We would definitely recommend this Condo to others it is a lovely place for a restful holiday.

This condo was excellent! It was very nicely decorated, and the ocean view was beautiful. We loved how quiet the beach was, and how short the walk to it was. On a mid summer day I never saw more than 30 or 40 people within a 1/4 mile. Will definitely stay again.

Our stay at this condo was absolutely wonderful!! It was stocked with everything that we would need and all of the extras were great! The kids loved all of the sand toys and the beach umbrellas! It was the cleanest place we have ever stayed! Very private corner unit. I was a little worried about having to cross the road to get to the beach, but the road was not busy at all. Very short walk to the beach. The pool at the condo was also great! Very clean and most of the time we were the only ones in it! A wonderful week! We are already talking about going back next year! Thanks so much Judy!

I just want to say thank you Judy. Letting us stay at your condo was a great vacation. We loved being on the first floor and a corner unit. It made things so easy and private. The condo was very clean and neat. There's an easy access to the beach and you had everything there we needed (umbrella, beach towels etc). We loved going to the beach every day. Most of all, we liked the privacy. The beach had few people. It was like we had the beach all to ourselves. And the beach fishing was good too. And there are plenty of restaurants and stores right down the road. We weren't far from anything. And we had no problem with parking. We could always park right in front. We haven't had a vacation out of Michigan in 17 years. And this one was GREAT! I hope we can continue coming back here every year. I would recommend this condo for all my relatives and friends and anyone who asks. Thanks so much Judy! Everything was wonderful. And I mean it!

My family and I were looking for a place to go to spend a few days together. We spent a few days online researching hotels/condos to rent. We were skeptical to rent a condo, however my brother found this condo. After speaking to the owners, he was sold. We stayed for four days and we were utterly impressed. This condo is so perfectly clean and organized. We were so comfortable, we felt very at home. The location is just wonderful...nice to have a quiet beach ...almost to yourself.
