“Beautiful Setting close to the Beach”
Dates of Stay Jul 16 -23, 2023
This is our second year in this lovely condo. When we had concerns about the damage to the beach area, the owners were kind enough to check the status of the beach access and send photos of the repairs. Our drive to FL is a long one and we often arrive after dark. It was nice to enter a place that had lamps on, so we were not fumbling around looking for light switches. The fresh flowers and a sign welcoming our family were nice personal touches. My husband and I took evening walks through the development and were awed by the beautiful landscaping and quiet neighborhoods. A quick walk across A1A and over the stairs puts you on a beautiful clean stretch of beach. We would definitely stay here again.

“This home is beautiful…”

“We absolutely loved our stay…”
Dates of Stay Jun 8-14, 2023
We absolutely loved our stay. Our family has been to New Smyrna several times and this was by far the nicest stay we’ve had. Everything matched the description and photos. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you could ever need. They also have lots of beach gear (towels, chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc.). They really did pay attention to all the little details. We loved the welcome sign, the detailed instructions, suggegstions for things to do. The location was perfect. Easy access to the beach (5min walk), several pools to choose from, and a quick drive to lots of other things to do. 10 out of 10 would higjly recommend.

“Schöne Wohnung in Strandnähe”
Dates of Stay May 1 – 25, 2023
Die Wohnung bietet alles, was man für einen Urlaub braucht. Man fühlt sich wie zu Hause, sehr bequeme Betten, gut ausgestattete Küche und ein großes Sofa, auf dem alle Platz haben. Der Eigentümer ist sehr zuvorkommend und die Kommunikation war sehr angenehm. Kommen sehr gerne wieder!
(“Nice apartment near the beach”)
(The apartment offers everything you need for a vacation. You feel at home, very comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen and a large sofa that can accommodate everyone. The owner is very accommodating and communication was very pleasant. We’d love to come back!)

“above and beyond”
Dates of Stay: Jul 24 – Jul 31, 2022
Wow! What a beautiful place for our vacation. The owners are very communicative and were extremely helpful when we had to change our dates. They have gone above and beyond to supply all the items needed to make you feel like you are at home, but better. While on vacation we cook most of our meals “in house” to save on expenses. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessities (plus lots of extras) to prepare a family meal. We really appreciated the Brita filtered water and dish soap. Both bedrooms had comfy beds with cozy linens, and the fluffy bathroom towels were luxurious. Plenty of outlets and USB ports make sure that you don’t miss your alarm, so you can see the sunrise over the ocean. My favorite part was an sipping on a early morning cup of coffee by the fireplace, while my husband enjoyed strumming on the guitar. Even my 14 year old was impressed by our accommodations! He loved the remote control fans. The most loved perk by everyone? The keyless entry. We arrived after dark which made finding the correct building a little more difficult as the building numbers are a little hard to find. The unit was well marked and someone was kind enough to leave lamps on for us, so we weren’t groping around in the dark. It’s just a hop skip and a jump to the beach, but be prepared for the stairs along the beach path. If you’re lucky you will also spot the rabbits that live along the route to the beach. My advice….stay here. You will not be disappointed.

“I don’t even have adequate words.“
Dates of Stay: Aug 13, 2021 – Aug 20, 2021
I don’t even have adequate words. Sea Woods 260 was literally perfect. If you forgot it, they have it at the condo. I had grown so accustomed to packing all the things to include paper towels, dishwasher pods, beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. I didn’t even have to do that because those things were already there. The condo reno made for the absolute most adorable vacation.

This place is dreamy. Everything is thought of, fresh flowers and plants make the place inviting and feel like home. The details and design are perfect and the location made beach vacation with a toddler easy. Short walks to the pool and beach and all the beach supplies you could want. I would choose this place over and over again. Best AirB&B experience we’ve ever had.

Thanks again!
“This place was great! The condo itself was beautiful and very spacious. Everything was completely redone and lovely. It was a very short walk to the beach.”
Best condo ever! This home is completely updated, comfortably furnished, with great provisions for the beach, etc. Owners are responsive but you won’t need them- they have thought of everything…Website photos accurately depict the condo.. We have always enjoyed New Smyrna Beach. This condo will meet your expectations for a vacation home.
After driving back to New York yesterday, and a forecast of getting up to another foot of snow this week, I find myself dreaming I was back in New Smyrna Beach, walking the beach and enjoying this lovely property. It felt like home from the minute we walked in. We felt comfortable and welcome, from the minute we arrived! This property is lovely and welcoming. The attention to detail was literally second to none…from the sign welcoming us, to the binder full of useful information, to the flowers. The central location, with easy access to the beach and to restaurants, shops, golf courses, and other activities was a bonus for us since we didn’t know New Smyrna Beach that well, and took a chance based on the information provided in the listing and the comments. We are already discussing a possible return. We would highly recommend this property. Thank you to Steve and his family, owners of this beautiful property.
“a wonderful time”
We had a wonderful time 🙂 We definitely want to return once the weather is a little warmer!
nicely furnished with everything you might need. We especially appreciated
the king size bed, the large TVs and the electric fireplace. The kitchen
is well stocked with dishes, pans, crockpot, and utensils. The linens,
towels and beach towels are good quality. We’ve been in several other
condos at Sea Woods, and this one is the nicest. Sea Woods offers easy
access to the beach and on cooler days it’s pleasant at the pools since
they are sheltered from the wind.
Everything here is nicely done, with obvious love for the detail.
When we saw the pictures on (the website), we thought „this is great; this is very much European style“ – and so it was!
“Beautiful condo very nicely appointed”
Dates of Stay: Mar 11-21, 2019
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We love to eat in and the kitchen has room to prepare meals and the dining area is spacious and comfortable. We did add a meat thermometer to the kitchen because, well, a delicious baked chicken one evening. I would highly recommend this vacation home. You can enjoy the sun on the balcony off the living room in the afternoon.
