About this property

April is a gorgeous month for a discount! Take a look and then message me!

It's time for a beachy escape! This is a full size house with everything you need for your beach vacation. Come & enjoy our home by the sea! Enjoy the sunrise in the morning and sunsets in the evening. Our beautiful area offers an "Old Florida" feel, laid back, lots of open area, and unspoiled beaches, as well as wonderful places to eat & visit.
We are conveniently located just 300 yards from A1A and the ocean. Turn right and Daytona Beach is 25 minutes away. Turn left and wonderful Flagler Beach is 10 minutes away. We have recently had some new wonderful restaurants and stores come into our area mixing in with the great ones that were already here. Plenty of places to dine on all sorts of cuisines, from barbecue, fast foods, and fabulous sandwiches to ethnic and high end cuisine. And fish, lots of fish!

This house is a three bedroom (details about the unadvertised third bedroom are further down in this description) 2.5 bath fun beach home. We provide what you need for the beach - chairs, umbrellas, towels, coolers, skim board, 2 surfboards (one learner one), beach wagon and boogie boards.
There are also 5 bikes and fishing rods and gear in the garage.
The main bedroom and bath are upstairs and feature a king size bed and a smart TV.

We designed our home to truly be a comfortable and welcoming beach house. You will get that feeling as soon as you walk in. The house inspires relaxation and fun! In the living room is a 65” Samsung smart tv, upstairs is a 50” Roku tv and in the back bedroom is an 42” Vizio tv with a Roku box. We provide access to Sling Blue, Netflix, HBOmax, Hulu and Amazon Prime. Instructions for each tv are nearby. Feel free to sign into your own accounts.

We love to cook and we have stocked the kitchen with that in mind. Enjoy any and all of the cookware. Whether you cook, grill, order pizza or eat out, you will find EVERYTHING you need in the kitchen, including numerous utensils for all needs. There is an automatic drip coffee maker as well as a French press and Keurig. There is a slow cooker, electric stock pot, air fryer, ice cream maker, hand crank ice crusher, waffle maker and all the necessary small kitchen appliances. And, if you adhere to "leave the cooking to the professionals" style, there are SO many wonderful choices within a short drive time, Flagler Beach to the north or Ormond and Daytona to the south.
There is a grill and marble table on the back patio. There are two full propane tanks, one on the grill and one in the breezeway. We love and enjoy relaxing or entertaining on the screen enclosed breezeway. On a quiet evening you can hear the ocean. Also, there are numerous parks and water activities close by with SO many things to do.
We do not allow smoking (and this includes all items that blow smoke). We also do not allow wild parties or loud music. Our neighbors are super friendly but we do look out for one another. The washer and dryer are in the garage as well as an extra fridge.
The breezeway divides the house somewhat. When you enter, you will enter into the breezeway. Straight ahead is the door to the main part of the house. Here is the living room, kitchen, downstairs bedroom with two twin beds, and a full bathroom and upstairs is the master suite (king bedroom with full bathroom). On the OTHER side of the breezeway is a private third queen bedroom with powder room. If you have guests, this is perfect and quite private for them and teenagers also love it.
And INSIDE the breezeway is the "inside/outside" shower which is awesome.
Book this house and you will see just how fun it is!
UPON BOOKING, YOU WILL RECEIVE A RENTAL AGREEMENT AND PET ADDENDUM (IF APPLICABLE). IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO VIEW THESE AHEAD OF TIME JUST LET ME KNOW. I WILL GET IT RIGHT OUT TO YOU
HAVE FUN and don't forget the sunscreen!"

Ormond by the sea
The house was very nicely set up and the most fully stocked place we’ve ever rented. This made our stay very convenient. The beds were all very comfortable, and the house was spacious. You never felt cramped. Our access to the beach was a key reason for picking the location. The only issue we had was spotty Internet at times however the host was extremely responsive and very communicative, which we were grateful for.

Felt Like Home
This house was immaculate and came stocked with virtually every appliance, gadget, and utensil known to man....along with being fully stocked with paper products and condiments. You could tell that it truly is someone's home, not just a "rental property". The owner was very responsive, polite and professional. We would highly recommend this house.

About the host

Hosted by Helene Miller

Host profile image
Hello travelers! We found our property on Capri Drive in 2001 when it was only a sandy road. There are cousins that live all around us and that is how we learned about it. We spent most of our lives together in Springfield, PA where Charlie was a sporting goods store owner supplying the surrounding public and private schools, swim teams, club sports, etc with sports uniforms, equipment, shoes and everything in between. He made a dramatic career change in 2009 and went back to his alma mater Villanova University to become an English and Social Studies teacher. We moved to our cottage by the sea for a while where he taught high school in Flagler County but we were missing our 4 children and 17 grandchildren back in the Philadelphia area. So back we came where Charlie is now teaching in an urban school. We live in the West Powelton section of the city and love the urban life.
I was a Jazzercise instructor for 25 glorious years until I went to a full time job while Charlie was back in school as well as being a full time mom, grandmom and caregiver for my own mother.
I work part time also in the Philadelphia School District as an assistant in the younger grade classrooms and love it.
We always miss our cottage by the sea when we are not there but are thrilled to share it with others and delight in hearing about your own experiences there if you like to share.

Why they chose this property

We simply love Ormond by the Sea and, in fact, our little subdivision of 3 streets (Capri, Avalon and Via Madrid) is actually called Avalon by the Sea. It is peaceful and lovely there, a simple beach life not sullied by loud bars and boardwalk noises. Our home is positioned 300 yards from the ocean and 200 yards from the river and, in the quiet evenings, you can hear the ocean crashing onto the shore as you sit and relax in the breezeway.
We named our home Somewhere Beyond the Sea because my mother just loved Bobby Darin and that was one of his signature songs. I just love having family within walking distance of us and, when we vacation there, we spend a lot of time together.

What makes this property unique

Our area is not crowded. It is an "Old Florida" feel-laid back, lots of open area with many areas designated as state lands and therefore cannot be built upon. We have a thriving community of activists who assist during the annual sea turtle migrations. The house is approximately 1.5 hours from Disney World and other Orlando attractions. Daytona Beach and the famous Speedway is a 15-20 minute drive, St. Augustine and New Smyrna Beach are both about 40 minutes drive (in opposite directions!). You can walk to the Lagerhead Restaurant at the top of the road for nightly music, happy hour, lunch, dinner and weekend breakfasts. The new Tanger shopping mall is opened in Daytona Beach right off of I-95.
We designed our home to truly be a beach house. You will get that feeling as soon as you walk in. The house inspires relaxation and fun!
The house has colored cement floors except for the master bedroom which has a high end wood tone laminate. Inside the showers is also a rustic cement. We simply love the breezeway and spend a lot of time there eating, relaxing, reading, etc. There is even a shower in the breezeway perfect for rinsing off after coming in from the beach. We call it the "inside-outside shower" :-)
