About this property

Comfy Queen large 1/1, Near Stetson, Sky Diving, St Johns River, racing, beach

The Deland Marigold Caribbean is a beautifully furnished 1 bedroom 1 bath apartment on the ground floor of the Victorian home that has everything you need for a great stay in DeLand. The bells of St Peters Church add to the peaceful and quiet country feel setting in the center of Deland, just a few minutes walk to the shops and restaurants of the award winning downtown and Stetson University. This centrally located property gives you easy access to everything Central Florida has to offer. Owners Bill and Erin are close by so let them know if you need anything special for your stay.

Deland has been awarded the “Best Small Town in Florida” many times and holds regular festivals including the Dog Parade, The Christmas Boat Parade, Juried Art festivals, and several holiday parades like Veterans day and homecoming. MainStreet DeLand Association - Deland, FL link can show you the upcoming calendar of events.

New Smyrna Beach is a quick 35 minute drive and world famous Daytona Beach with its awesome Daytona International Speedway - NASCAR racing is also 35 minutes away. Both beaches allow driving and parking on the beach. We provide beach supplies for your stay so no need to bring or buy a cooler, beach chairs or towels. Both places hold Bike Weeks in October and March each year.
Deland is home to Stetson University and the Stetson Mansion wired for electricity by Thomas Edison himself, as well as multiple art museums and theaters.
De Leon Springs State Park is nearby with The Old Spanish Sugar Mill , famous for its pancakes made right at your table- a must for breakfast lovers. You can pack a picnic lunch and relax all day under the huge shade trees, enjoy canoeing on the river or a swim in the natural spring at this beautiful state park. The St John’s river runs through Deland and offers many types of activities at the nearby marina which also has a rustic seafood restaurant right on the water, and fishing near the Whitehair bridge on Hwy 44. The St Johns River also has lots of wildlife including alligators. The manatees winter at beautiful Blue Springs just 15 minutes away. If you do bring your boat, pay attention to the no wake and manatee zones to help protect the large "sea cows". The town just South of us, Sanford, has a Riverboat Cruise that is a great way of touring the river.

And of course, Orlando’s world class attractions are just an hour away, including Disney World, Epcot, Sea World, famous International Drive and Universal Studios with its newest Harry Potter themed attractions. Day trips might include U.S. Air Force Space & Missile Museum in Cape Canaveral, the world class Outlet shopping area in Saint Augustine- the oldest settlement in America, or a trip to Busch Gardens in Tampa. Gainesville, home to the University of Florida is two hours north and Florida’s gulf coast to the West is about 3 hours. Tarpon Springs on the Gulf coast is another easy day trip. Awesome off shore fishing is offered at several nearby marinas, weather permitting. These include Reel Deal Offshore Fishing in Ponce Inlet. Inside The Marigold Caribbean you'll find a guest binder which also lists the areas art museums, theaters and historic sites as well as recommendations from guests before you. Remember, you are visiting sunny Florida so take advantage of our wonderful weather to see everything this beautiful place offers.

The Daytona airport is only 25 minutes away as is the Sanford International Airport served by many European travelers. The Orlando International airport is approximately 1 hour away.

Very cute, would book again

I really enjoyed my stay at the Marigold; it was comfortable and homey. Bill was super easy to deal with and checking in and out was a cinch! The neighborhood was very cute. Downtown DeLand is right down the street and DIS is less than a half hour away. Perfect!

Way more spacious than I anticipated. Clean and well stocked. Great parking spaces and ramp.

I was in town for Stetson graduation and preferred this type of accommodation over a hotel anyday. I could cook my own food and relax in the evening. The place is super close to downtown which makes it convenient and close to Spec Martin Stadium for easy access to graduation ceremony. I will be returning during Bike Week because it super close to Daytona and reasonably priced.

Just enough space, clean, comfortable, convenient Bring a nightlight or flashlight - the hall and bathroom light are off of the same switch and that's too much light if you need to get up in the middle of the night.

New Home Away From Home

My family and I have been doing weekends in DeLand for the past 4 years. We have stayed in many hotels in DeLand. This past weekend we chose the Marigold Resort and stayed in the Deland Marigold Carribean. This was our second booking at the Marigold Resort. Both stays have been pleasant, quiet and private. Any problems or questions have been addressed immediately. Prices are very reasonable compared to the rest of DeLand with more space to move around as compared to the high dollar smaller hotel units.

Caribbean

This Vrbo is as pictured. Upon entering, the odor was an old musty smell. The double door entrance is kind of a pain. There was a dead roach on the floor and one in the kitchen sink. The set up was odd. Overall, I’d rate this a 5 out of 10.

Clean property, awesome location!

I'm sure its a difficult thing to agree to host three large dogs, but Bill agreed without hassle and charged a reasonable pet fee, for which I am grateful. High marks for cleanliness and for the location, which is walking distance to the Main Street area, and to Lisa, the property manager, who was very friendly and accommodating. I think the listing should disclose that the A/C is "locked" to prevent guests from setting the temperature below 73 degrees. Although there is an additional fan unit in the dining area, it is very noisy and we found it impossible to sleep with it on (it was distracting even just having a conversation). Additionally, there is a good size TV in the bedroom, but I'm not sure it is fully functional (it was unplugged when we arrived and, although it turned on, the screen looked streaky- could have just been the lack of input). There is no connected input device, and it is not WiFi enabled, so if you want to watch TV in the bedroom, you will have to bring a DVD player or some kind of streaming device (assuming there's a connection on the TV, I didn't look that close since we didn't have anything like that). I couldn't figure out if some of the electrical outlets were not working or just finicky (kitchen/dining room) - I was able to reset the outlet in the dining room, but the kitchen outlets didn't want to work and resetting/checking the fuse box didn't make a difference. Although it was very quiet for most of our stay (and the other guests we met were super friendly), the guests/residents in the unit above ours had a 5-6 person get-together one night which we found pretty disruptive (loud voices and lots of stomping on the floor/ceiling until 1-2 in the morning). Overall, I truly enjoyed the convenience of this property and the graciousness of the host and would have been more prepared/understanding of the "surprises", had they been mentioned in the listing (as best as possible of course). And, again, the property was very clean and accommodating to an entire fur family, so the property delivered on the things that were most important to us. Thanks very much!

Can’t beat it for the price and location.

We love DeLand and the Marigold. While some updates could be made, the price is unbeatable and you shouldn’t be spending a lot of time inside while you are visiting DeLand. Too much to do, see and eat. Bill is a nice guy and I appreciate the eclectic feel of the house and it’s layout. Will stay again.

About Bill Watford

I am a native Floridian. There are a lot of nice cities in Florida and my two favorite small towns are Deland on the east side of the state and Cedar Key due west on the Gulf of Mexico.

I started buying houses to rent as an investment while I had a full time day job, my first in 1985 and I still own it - the Cedar House of Deland. My full time job today is managing the vacation rentals and short stay properties that I own.

I have several in Deland: The Units of the Deland Marigold, Grandma's Place, and The Cedar House. I also have two in Cedar Key: The TreeHouse and Goose Cove Cottage.

I enjoy what I do and am passionate about seeing that my guests have a great experience while staying in one of my properties.

Why they chose this property

This property is located only 4 blocks from the center of Deland, an historic town with a rich culture going back to the Mid 1800’s. It has been voted the Best Small Town in America several times. This property’s
location is in a very private enclave that most people don’t even know is there with close proximity to historic downtown full of locally-owned shops and restaurants.. It’s as if you are in the quiet of the country. You can hear the bells of St Peters Cathedral across the street and even the gentle waters of their fountain. It is within walking distance of the beautiful campus of Stetson University and also only 3 miles away from the St. Johns River.

What makes this property unique

Inside, the unit is laid out like a residence Inn with a master bedroom and bathroom, huge living room, and a large fully equipped kitchen. Adjacent to the living area is a front patio that overlooks the landscaped yard, a relaxing place for morning coffee or tea. The whole property is designed for comfort and quietness.
