About this property

Castle Reef #423, 2/2 Ocean View / No Drive Beach Condominium

Ocean view condo located on the no-drive zone of the beach. Clean, comfortable, and spacious two-bedroom, two-bath ocean view condominium. Located directly on the car free portion of the best beach in Florida - New Smyrna Beach! NSB is where central Florida locals go to find the best, least touristy and uncrowded beach.

This is a fourth floor unit with a large balcony overlooking the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, heated pool, and beautifully landscaped courtyard. Castle Reef has the nicest grounds of any comparable condo complex in NSB.

The complex also offers lighted tennis/pickleball courts, heated Olympic-sized pool, kiddie pool, shuffleboard, gazebo, clubhouse, and grills. There is also the option to rent the clubhouse for private parties.

Enjoy your morning breakfast routine on the large balcony directly overlooking the ocean. Or wind down with a glass of wine at the end of the day to enjoy the fantastic view of the sunset.

We have furnished everything you will need to enjoy your stay, including beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, fishing poles, tennis racquets/balls, and beach toys for the kids.

Walk across the street to the market or restaurant. There are many other great restaurants a short distance away.

We are located about an hour from Disney, Universal, and the Orlando International Airport and just minutes from Daytona Speedway.

We have a king-sized bed, two twin beds, large flat-screen TV, and a gorgeous place to stay!

The Wolk’s

We had an amazing stay at Castle Reef! Perfect little condo with everything you need, great view of the ocean, and close to NSB restaurants and Flagler ave! Our kids loved spending time at the pool, which also has a kiddie pool for the younger kids. The hosts were great at communication with anything we needed. We have been coming to New Smyrna our whole lives and this condo was one of my favorites, we will be back!

Update needed

Coral Reef complex was well maintained; easy access to both beach and pool; beach was easy to walk. The condo provided an outstanding view of the ocean; space was quite adequate for 3 adults; and kitchen was well stocked. Definite updates are needed in both bathrooms. Bathtubs looked well worn (would not want to take a bath in either one) & faucets were quite difficult to turn. Another beneficial update would be an entry code instead of using a lockbox and key.). Making these updates would make this condo a lot more desirable. In spite of recommended updates, our week there went well.

Another great stay

This was our second time staying at this property and it was just as good as the first. The location and available amenities are perfect for our family. The beach steps were unfortunately damaged by the hurricanes prior to our stay, but public beach access is only a 2 minute drive away. We will definitely look into this property for our next trip to New Smyrna Beach.

One thing I wish we were told, is that the beach access stairs were gone. We had to walk to a public beach access to get on the beach.

Cozy Apartment

I recently stayed at this rental property, and overall, it was a great experience. The place is incredibly cozy and well-maintained, with a clean and welcoming atmosphere. It’s stocked with a variety of amenities that made the stay convenient and enjoyable.One standout feature is the extra bedding provided—such a thoughtful addition for families or groups needing flexibility. However, the one drawback is the lack of direct access to the beach, which would have been a nice bonus.Despite that, it’s a wonderful spot for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. Highly recommend it for those who prioritize comfort and convenience!

Lovely Condo, Amazing View

The condo was clean and nicely furnished. The king bed was comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked w kitchenware. The view of the ocean from the condo was amazing. The Olympic sized pool allowed for room to play or just float and the condo grounds are beautiful and well kept. Would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Bill Overbeek

Host profile image
We currently reside in Longwood, FL and have been going to New Smyrna Beach for years. We love the area and the convenience to all the restaurants, shopping, and attractions.

Why they chose this property

It is family friendly and convenient to all of the Orlando attractions (i.e., Disney, Universal, Sea World, Daytona, St. Augustine). The grounds at Castle Reef are very nice, well maintained with lush foliage and beautiful landscaping, among the nicest properties in the area. Our unit is ideally located on the 4th floor, with a direct ocean view looking out over the grounds.

What makes this property unique

Castle Reef is on the No-Drive part of New Smyrna Beach, making it safer for families and with no vehicles obstructing the view. New Smyrna is ideally located, a little south of Daytona (the world's most famous) Beach but much less crowded, and it's the closest beach to the Orlando attractions. This is the beach where Orlando locals go.
