Perfect spot

We chose this property because it was a great view on the ocean, and because it was near the mayo clinic. My husband donated a kidney to his sister, and we stayed here for his first week of recovery. Wonderful location, great property manager, and exactly what we wanted! Would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Host profile image
I am Renee, the property manager and local Licensed Real Estate Broker with Jax Beach Condos and Jax Beach Rentals. The owners bought this condo in August 2017 to be near their new grandson so they visit quite often. They decided to share the condo with guests when they are not in Jax Beach. Enjoy this home away from home!

Why they chose this property

Beachdrifter is a small, oceanfront condo community directly on the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. Walk or bike to several restaurants and stores. Bonus: In 2022, the Beachdrifter Condo building completed extensive exterior updates including pool, deck, paint and landscaping.

What makes this property unique

Everything is within walking distance from the Beachdrifter Condo. You really don't NEED a car to get around. Uber from the airport to the condo then bike or walk to everything! Several restaurants within few blocks of condo too. Condo 401 has fully-equipped kitchen; beach towels and beach chairs included too.
