Three of my friends & I took a much needed week to enjoy each other & escape our strained ~ chaotic lives. If only for a moment in time, we needed to catch our breath, laugh at life, & just STOP & RELAX. Funny what a week will do for the soul & spirit! At this little slice of amazing - Paradise, Peace & Tranquility is exactly what we found!
I live in Florida; however, I had never been to New Smyrna Beach. My husband had told me for years it was the place to see...should have listened years ago. It is now my FAVORITE BEACH.
The beach is massive but lightly sprinkled with very few people-not crowded with massive high rises & the nonsense of which we wanted to escape! The bath water-warm waves are just SIMPLY AMAZING! They are so gigantic but so gentle. I was able to swim without getting beat up, ride the waves on my board, or just float...PERFECTION! There is no comparison. New Smyrna Beach is a hidden treasure. I selfishly want to keep this beach on the “down low”, because I don’t want it to change!
The CONDO- simply lovely. The location is perfect. We spent most of our evenings on the balcony. We had an added few bonuses to make our trip even more unforgettable: There were meteor showers while there and an unexpected shuttle launch...we were in absolute awe.
The condo is simple, comfy, clean, & it was perfect for us! We would start our every morning just by rising the blinds ...as the view from every window is breathtaking. Being a condo on the end...it was like “surround site”. We could watch the Sunrise on beach from bedroom balcony (which I could watch from the bed) or sit with coffee off the living room balcony, But WAIT...There’s more...we could watch the sunset every evening off the spare bedroom balcony, which overlooks the little chain of rivers. (I will bring my kayak next time fore sure!)
The kitchen is well equipped with all that you will need and big enough for all of us to help cook, clean up, and get out onto the beautiful beach.
We would play cards or games at the massive table after dinner each night,
& would chill in the comfy living room for a drink or two-then to the balcony for the Sky’s showcase.
I have used VRBO for years, & have my own rental (which sits on the Rainbow River listed on VRBO), I have been all over Florida (from lakes to rivers to beaches), and I have to say New Smyrna feels like home. I can’t stop thinking about this amazing place! I will definitely be back!
