Guests have access to everything except a small locked owner’s closet. Both the main house and Mermaid Cove are included with your reservation and are connected with entrances located directly beside one another.
We provide door codes before check-in, so you can conveniently let yourself in.
HOST AVAILABILITY We’re available as little or as much as you need through messaging. We want you to feel comfortable and enjoy your vacation without unnecessary interruptions.
CLEANING We take pride in thoroughly cleaning and preparing Surf’s Up between guests. Because this is a beach house in Florida, guests should also remember that the tropical climate includes wildlife and insects.
We have regular pest-control service, but bugs can occasionally enter any Florida home—especially when exterior doors or windows are left open. To help keep the home comfortable, please: ✔ Keep exterior doors closed ✔ Keep window screens properly closed ✔ Avoid leaving uncovered food on counters ✔ Clean crumbs and spills promptly ✔ Store food properly Many Florida residents even store bread and other pantry foods in the refrigerator during warmer months.
FAMILY-FRIENDLY, NOT A PARTY HOUSE Surf’s Up was created for families, couples, friends, and groups who want to enjoy Daytona Beach together. We welcome celebrations and vacations, but this is not a loud party house. The home is located in a clean, quieter residential beach area, and we ask guests to respect our neighbors. Please avoid loud outdoor gatherings, excessive noise, or disruptive behavior.
AGE REQUIREMENT The primary renter should be at least 23 years old, unless we have approved an exception in advance.
NO SMOKING Smoking and vaping are not permitted inside the home. Evidence of indoor smoking or lingering odors may require professional odor remediation, furniture cleaning, and/or duct cleaning. Thank you for helping us keep the home fresh and comfortable for future guests.
WEATHER & TRAVEL INSURANCE Florida weather can sometimes be unpredictable. We do not provide refunds for weather-related circumstances that are outside of our control. We recommend purchasing travel insurance if hurricanes, storms, flight cancellations, travel delays, or other unexpected events could interfere with your trip.
SECURITY For property protection and guest safety, exterior security cameras are located on the outside corners of the house. There are no security cameras inside the home. The exterior cameras are used primarily for security and when the property is vacant. Smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are also installed in the home.
A REAL FAMILY BEACH HOUSE Surf’s Up isn’t a cookie-cutter commercial rental. It is a family beach house that we enjoy ourselves and have opened to guests who want to make their own Daytona memories. We created this space because time with family and friends is important. Spend the morning watching the waves, walk to the beach with the kids, relax in a hammock, cook dinner outside, gather around the fire table, play games together, or simply unwind after a busy day. However you spend your vacation, we hope Surf’s Up gives you a comfortable place to slow down and enjoy the people you came with. Walk to the ocean. Enjoy the large yard. Bring the family. Bring the grandparents. Bring the beach toys. Park the RV or trailer. Rent a golf cart. Explore Daytona—or simply stay home and enjoy your vacation.
Thank you for supporting our small family business. We feel blessed when guests choose our home, and we would be honored to be a small part of the memories you make in Daytona Beach.
Choose Surf’s Up and start your Daytona Beach vacation!

The house was amazing! We had a big group and there was plenty of room! The outdoor space made afternoons and evenings special sitting around listening to music and talking! There is plenty of parking for big groups also! We will be back soon!
It was great! Everyone in my party slept comfortably. I loved the fact that even though it’s not directly on the beach, you still get that beautiful ocean view. The Host was great, easy to get in touch with, and responded quickly. Would definitely rebook in the future.
We had a wonderful stay. The property was located perfectly for our weekend. Nice sitting on back porch and viewing the ocean. It was very clean and the host gave a lot of attention to the details. We are very happy with our stay.

About the host
Hosted by Jorie Family
We’re a local family who lives about 15 minutes from Surf’s Up, and we love staying here ourselves whenever we get the chance. Our boys especially love exploring the shoreline just across the street, looking for sea life, spotting crabs, and playing in the waves.
One of the best parts of the location is how much is nearby. You can walk to local favorites like Daytona Diner and Salty Pint, and there’s a surf shop just steps away offering rentals and lessons for the whole family.
We’ve also stocked the outdoor shed with beach chairs, toys, boogie boards, and other beach-day essentials, so you can spend less time packing and more time enjoying the ocean.
Why they chose this property
Surf’s Up is located in a peaceful Daytona Beach Shores neighborhood just steps from the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. Our family came to this area for work and quickly fell in love with the beaches, coastal lifestyle, and everything Daytona has to offer. We live nearby and are always happy to help if you need us.
We created Surf’s Up with one purpose in mind: bringing people together. Inside, you’ll find games and comfortable gathering spaces designed to encourage families and friends to slow down, laugh, connect, and make memories.
The years we have together can go by so quickly. Whether you’re traveling with children, friends, or as a couple, we hope this home gives you a chance to unplug, enjoy the simple things, and spend meaningful time with the people you love.
Surf’s Up is also a home our own family enjoys, so we kindly ask that you care for it as you would your own. We truly love this little beach house and feel fortunate to share it with our guests.
What makes this property unique
Surf’s Up is in a fantastic central location that makes it easy to enjoy everything Daytona Beach has to offer. The beach ramp and pedestrian beach access are directly across the street at Botefuhr Avenue, so you can be on the sand in minutes without worrying about beach parking.
We’re located south of the Daytona Beach Boardwalk and just north of Congo River Golf, one of our favorite nearby mini-golf attractions and an easy walk from the house.
You can also walk to restaurants, a skate park, surf shops, and other local attractions, while still being just a short drive from the Speedway, Boardwalk, shopping, and entertainment. It’s a great location for families and groups who want to spend less time driving and more time enjoying their vacation.
