Beachside Retreat • Sleeps 16 • 70 Steps to Beach • 7 Bdrms• Parking for 9
Spacious 7-Bedroom Beach Home — Sleeps 18 — Just 70 Steps to the Beach
Imagine waking up near the ocean, enjoying your morning coffee in a beautiful coastal home, spending the day walking along the beach, and returning home to rinse off the sand in a warm outdoor shower before gathering everyone together for dinner.
Welcome to our spacious 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom Beach Home, comfortably accommodating up to 18 guests. Designed with families, friends, and larger groups in mind, the home gives everyone the opportunity to be together while still having plenty of space to relax and enjoy their own time.
Best of all, the beach is just 70 steps from the house.
Our home is located on a quiet, one-way beach sand road atop a high beach dune, with very little traffic. It is a peaceful setting that feels removed from the hustle and bustle while still being within easy reach of everything you may need during your stay.
A Home Designed for Togetherness
One of the things that makes our home special is its unique two-level design.
The property includes a private 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom upstairs villa and a private 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom downstairs villa. When rented together, they become one spacious 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom home.
This arrangement was created from our own desire to have a place where family members of different ages could enjoy a vacation together without everyone having to share the same living space all the time.
The two areas allow couples, families, or groups to have their own bedrooms, living spaces, kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry facilities while remaining together under one roof.
It is an especially comfortable arrangement for large families, multi-family vacations, family reunions, wedding groups, church retreats, corporate retreats, and special celebrations.
With room for up to 18 guests, there is space to gather together, spread out, relax, and enjoy your vacation at your own pace.
Beautifully Decorated With a Love of the Coast
Our passion for design is a big part of what makes this home unique.
We are professional interior designers with more than 30 years of experience, and we previously owned a home-furnishings retail store for 23 years. We personally designed and decorated our Beach Home, drawing inspiration from our love of the coast and our travels throughout the Caribbean.
You'll find tropical colors inspired by Caribbean waters and sunsets blended throughout the home in a carefully balanced palette. Large windows, natural light, vaulted ceilings, comfortable furnishings, and coastal décor create an atmosphere that is elegant yet relaxed.
We wanted the home to feel beautiful without losing the easygoing feeling that belongs at the beach.
Many of our guests have told us that the home feels peaceful, relaxing, and comfortable, and that is exactly what we hoped to create.
Your Beach Vacation Begins Just Steps Away
At only 70 steps from the sand, the beach can become part of your everyday routine.
Walk down for an early-morning stroll. Spend the afternoon swimming, sunbathing, beachcombing, fishing, or simply relaxing beside the ocean. Come back for lunch and return later for sunset.
Because the road is quiet and the beach is so close, you can easily come and go throughout the day without turning a trip to the beach into an event.
And when you return, the outdoor hot-water shower makes it easy to rinse away the sand before settling back into the house.
Enjoy Florida's Outdoor Lifestyle
Our upstairs and downstairs patio areas provide comfortable spaces to relax outside and enjoy Florida's beautiful weather.
Gather everyone around the gas BBQ grill for a family cookout, sit outside with a cool drink, or let the evening unfold while everyone shares stories about the day's adventures.
There is parking for approximately 9 vehicles, which is especially convenient when bringing a large family or group.
Everything You Need for a Comfortable Stay
The home is fully furnished and equipped for both short visits and extended vacations.
Each villa has its own fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. Kitchens include cookware, serving dishes, baking pans, a blender, mixer, espresso machine, coffee maker, Keurig, microwave, dishwasher, oven. Also provided are blow dryers, irons, ironing boards, beach chairs, beach toys and more.
Bed linens, bath towels, and beach towels are provided, along with high-speed Wi-Fi.
You'll have the convenience of having the things you need right at home while still enjoying the feeling of being away on vacation.
Walk to Many of the Things You Need
One of the advantages we love most about this location is that you don't have to get in your car every time you need something.
Restaurants, grocery stores, a farmers market, bakeries, shopping, a pharmacy, convenience stores, and beach-rental businesses are all nearby.
Popular Flagler Avenue, the heart of New Smyrna Beach's beachside district, is approximately one mile north.
Nearby vendors offer bicycles, kayaks, paddleboards, surfboards, and street-legal golf carts, making it easy to explore the barrier island in whatever way suits you.
Room for Everyone to Sleep Comfortably
The home provides sleeping accommodations for up to 18 guests across the two villas.
Upstairs — Turtle Beach Villa
The upstairs villa includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living area, kitchen, laundry facilities, and outdoor seating.
The sleeping arrangements include a king bed and twin bed in the primary bedroom, a queen bed in one guest bedroom, two twins in a trundle configuration in another bedroom, and a queen sleeper sofa in the den. Two additional twin rolling cots are also available.
Downstairs — Turtle Nest Villa
The downstairs villa includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living area, kitchen, laundry facilities, and outdoor seating.
The sleeping arrangements include two bedrooms with queen beds, a bedroom with two twins in a trundle configuration, and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room.
This flexible arrangement makes it possible for different families or generations to have their own space while still sharing the same Beach Home.
Accessibility
The downstairs villa offers convenient access from the driveway with approximately a 2½-inch entry threshold.
For guests with mobility needs, local Beach Patrol services may provide beach wheelchair access and beach-driving permits for visitors displaying a valid disability parking placard. Guests should confirm current availability and requirements before arrival.
A Place to Make Memories
We didn't create this Beach Home simply as a place for people to sleep. We created it as a place where families and friends can reconnect, enjoy the ocean, share meals, laugh together, and make memories.
You can spend the day on the beach, explore New Smyrna Beach, venture out to nearby attractions, or simply stay home and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
At the end of the day, everyone can come back together, relax, and enjoy the comfort of having your own spacious beach home.
Whether you're planning a family reunion, traveling with multiple families, celebrating a special occasion, organizing a retreat, or simply looking for a memorable beach vacation with the people you love, we would be honored to share our home with you.
Come slow down, breathe in the ocean air, and make priceless beach memories that you'll carry home with you.

About the host
Hosted by David and Carmen Abdo
We were both raised in South Florida near the ocean, and throughout our lives, the beach has been an important part of who we are. There is something about the beach that touches our souls in an expansive, inspirational, and peaceful way. It has always been a place where we reconnect, relax, and enjoy time with family and friends.
We are both professional interior designers with more than 30 years of experience, and we also owned a retail home-goods store for 23 years, specializing in unique, high-end Southern Coastal décor with a classic Art Deco influence. Naturally, we brought that passion for design into our Beach Home. We decorated it to reflect our own taste, experiences, and love of the coast, and we hope you'll enjoy the atmosphere we've created.
When choosing a beach home for our own family, we had some very specific things in mind. We wanted beautiful, soft white sand that was comfortable to walk on, rather than a beach covered with shells. More importantly, we wanted a place where our family members of different ages could enjoy themselves independently while still being together under one roof.
Over the years, we've been inspired by the beautiful colors of Caribbean waters and sunsets, and we brought those tropical colors into the home. We carefully blended the palette throughout the house, keeping the intensity balanced so that the overall feeling remains calm, comfortable, and relaxing.
One of the greatest compliments we receive is hearing guests tell us that they feel peaceful and relaxed when they stay here.
We love sharing our Beach Home with others because we believe a vacation should be more than simply having a place to sleep. It should be a place where you slow down, reconnect with the people you love, and create memories that stay with you long after you leave.
We would be delighted to share our Beach Home with you and hope it becomes a special part of your next vacation.
Why they chose this property
We chose this location because it gives us the best of both worlds: the peaceful, laid-back feeling of a true beach getaway while still being close to everything we need.
Our Beach Home sits on a quiet, one-way beach sand road atop a high beach dune, creating a wonderfully peaceful setting just steps from the ocean. We love being able to wake up near the beach, enjoy the relaxed island atmosphere, and then walk to many of the conveniences guests may need—including groceries, a pharmacy, restaurants, clothing stores, and beach rentals.
We also wanted a place where families and large groups could truly enjoy being together. With room to accommodate up to 18 guests in 13 beds, our home gives everyone space to gather, relax, and make memories without feeling crowded.
Another reason we fell in love with this location is its accessibility. You can spend the day exploring some of Central Florida's most popular destinations—including Disney World, Universal, Epcot, Cape Canaveral, or historic St. Augustine—and be back in approximately an hour to enjoy the peaceful beach and ocean.
For us, this location offers something special: the ability to experience Florida's attractions and adventures, then come home to the tranquility of the ocean. That's exactly what we wanted in a beach home, and we think our guests will love it too.
What makes this property unique
Just 70 steps from the beach, this spacious coastal retreat offers the rare combination of easy beach access, ocean views, generous space for large groups, and an unforgettable island atmosphere. Designed with families and groups in mind, the home provides plenty of room to gather, relax, entertain, and create lasting memories together.
Inside, you'll find vaulted ceilings, large windows filled with natural light, and elegant coastal-tropical décor that creates a relaxed island feel from the moment you arrive. The spacious, open design makes it especially comfortable for extended families, reunions, retreats, wedding groups, and friends traveling together.
And the location makes exploring easy. You're minutes from everything on the New Smyrna Beach Barrier Island and mainland, while many of Central Florida's major attractions are approximately an hour away.
Whether your perfect day means walking to the beach, gathering around the grill, relaxing with family and friends, or exploring the best of Central Florida, this home gives you the space and location to enjoy it all.
Come relax, reconnect, and make priceless beach memories that you'll talk about for years to come!
