Six can sleep comfortably with a queen-size “air-dream” sofabed in the living room. The master suite is designed for the ultimate in comfort with a plush king-size bed, a balcony, its own bathroom and separate vanity/dressing area.

The condo is located directly on the ocean with a private access gate to the quiet (no-drive) beach or you can watch the waves roll in while relaxing by the pool.

If you don’t want to miss your workouts while on vacation you will appreciate the fitness center with a treadmill, rowing machine, weight machine and dry sauna!

Shopping, restaurants and grocery stores are within walking distance. Lots of other adventures, such as Daytona, St. Augustine, and Disney are a short drive. Wake up to an amazing sunrise over the ocean and dolphins playing just off-shore then relax on the front lanai in the evenings for a breathtaking sunset over the Intracoastal. Not a morning person? No problem, just lower the custom black-out blinds and enjoy your peaceful slumber. Ormond by the Sea is truly a special place and the condo has been equipped with lots of special touches to reflect that style and tranquility with convenience and comfort in mind.

Perfect getaway, what a DEAL!!!

Hate to sound like a broken record but renting 4 times in a row leaves me sounding like a broken record. The condo is beyond spectacular, as well as our hostess. It is fully stocked and lacks nothing. Our month flew by and looking forward to our next stay. ENJOY

Amazing!

The condo was awesome! It was just as advertised. Right on the beach and the views were outstanding. Clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed. Towels and lines were top of the line and plentiful. Beach equipment-chairs, towels, etc were so nice to have. Many restaurants and shops were close by. I can’t really say enough about this wonderful condo. We will definitely be back!

Great oceanfront condo

This is a great unit with an exceptional owner. Well maintained in a prime location. Private beach and a pool with easy access to Daytona Beach, a short drive to St Augustine or Cape Canaveral. This is our 2nd stay in this unit, 12th floor with a balcony overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Beautiful kitchen fully equipped. Plenty of beach gear for kids and adults. The building is a mix of full time residents and units which rent out. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Lots of local restaurants and places for seaside dining.

Total Perfection!

Wow! This property is a total stunner. The 12th floor views of the beach are amazing, the condo is beautifully decorated, and there are tons of thoughtful touches to help make your trip a total delight (beach toys, robes, toiletries, etc.) The building itself was also lovely, and everyone we met was so welcoming and kind, including to our three kids. Parking was easy, the pool was clean and large, and you cannot beat the location. Shelly was a wonderful host and we can't wait to be back again!

Great for families

Loved our stay! Condo was super clean and well-appointed (extra sheets/blankets, kitchen supplies, iron, bedroom fan, games, etc.). Large windows and balcony doors give you views of the ocean from the living and master and the deck is large enough for families to sit outside in the evenings. Location is great, right on the beach and the 12th floor gives you some spectacular views! We appreciated the beach toys along with the extra towels. Check-in & check out process was super easy as well. The condo was within a 10 to 15 minute drive of some really great restaurants in Ormond, Flagler, and Daytona. Thanks for a great family vacation!

Words cannot express our joy with this property

Never even knew about the Van Lee in Ormond but now I am hooked for the past three years and next year. Part of my love was from the location and part from the excellent hosts. Clean and fully stocked and the owner suite has the best ever mattress. Hated to leave. Until we meet again.

Amazing Condo!

This condo is absolutely fabulous! I’ve been coming to Florida for over 26 years and this condo was very clean, all very nice furniture through out the condo! I love that the private laundry room is right outside your door. They have chairs for 6, beach towels for 6 and umbrellas if needed:) most condos beach supplies are old and never has enough! They were also CLEAN and not falling apart! After you get in to your condo, they have very easy internet access, and explains how to use your TV. If I needed to get in touch with Stacey she responded asap. She also was kind enough to respond before our stay with my questions of hurricane damage, of course there wasn’t any! Excellent place to stay !!!! Close to everything!!! The beach was amazing! Thank you for sharing your condo with us! We will be back!!

Wonderful, as always!

This was our 3rd year staying at this beautiful condo, and it never disappoints. We did have a bit of a different situation this year with Hurricane Ian having gone through the week prior to our stay. We weren't sure if it was going to affect our stay, and Shelly went above and beyond for us helping us decide what was best. She kept us informed about the power, internet and cable service, the condition of the property and surrounding areas. She sent us pictures so we could see the conditions after the storm. She really went out of our way and was willing to accommodate us no matter what we decided. We felt like we made a very well informed decision with her help. All worked out so nicely and we were so thankful to be able to enjoy our week. This condo is always so comfortable. The view is amazing and it has everything we need. Shelly also informed us of several rocket launches happening which were fun to watch. She checks in to make sure things are going well, but is never overbearing. We have no complaints.

A perfect home away from home with beach included!

This is the second time we’ve rented from Shelly and Monty and we’re definitely spoiled! To be able to walk right in and feel the comfortable-ness of home with the added bonus of the spectacular ocean front view, allows for immediate vacation mode. We’ll definitely be back! We’ve loved Ormond for a long time and now this condo has become the icing in the cake.

About the host

Hosted by Shelly Taylor

We are native Floridians and love the beach! When we purchased this vacation condo we had an immediate vision of it's potential. We enjoy every moment we spend in Ormond Beach and are so excited to share that joy with others.

Why they chose this property

We chose Ormond Beach after visiting our friends there over the years (and it's not too far from both of our families). The beauty of the area speaks for itself but the location sealed the deal for us. We like spending a couple of relaxing days on the beach and eating at the local restaurants then taking day trips to nearby sites and activities. St. Augustine and Orlando is closer than you think (about an hour drive - all highway)!
