We’ve been coming New Smyrna Beach to enjoy our oceanfront condo for nearly 10 years now. Some friends cannot understand why we keep returning to the same place when there’s a whole world out there to explore. So what’s the attraction for us?

Sun, warmth and sea breezes
The ocean: to watch, to walk along the shore, to play in.
The wildlife: dolphin, manatee, pelicans, sea birds
The people: friendly – and not too many of them!
Security: – a feeling of safety in this relaxed and beautiful town.
Proximity to Orlando and the Theme Parks was an initial attraction
The feeling of ‘coming home’ each time we visit (so much so that we’ve started Silver Dolphin Properties now – a Real Estate company offering vacation rentals and sales – so we can spend even more time here)

Who rents our oceanfront properties in New Smyrna Beach?

* Retired and semi-retired couples come down in the spring for a few months – and their families can visit them for shorter breaks
* Escapees from the cold winters come to New Smyrna Beach for a week or so of sun and warmth.
* City dwellers come to the beach
* Local Orlando people seeking out the sea breezes
* Local families bring the children for the summer (leaving one or more members of the family to commute back to work)
* Family get-togethers – where all the cousins can play together and the parents can catch up and relax
* European families who have OD’d on Theme Parks come to enjoy the beaches that are far less crowded than the normal Mediterranean alternative.

Come and see for yourself – we look forward to seeing you in New Smyrna Beach.

What makes a Florida dream home? It is not just price – there can be extremely expensive homes that are someone else’s dream but not yours.

Your Florida dream home might be a huge modern estate on the beach – or it might be a cosy little country retreat; it might be a brand new home or something older – perhaps a Florida beach house that you can fix up. Your prime need might be a property near a good school. It might be your family home or your second home or an investment property for Florida vacation rentals. Everyone’s needs and desires are different.

What we Realtors need to remember is that one person’s Florida dream house may be another’s monstrosity. We will listen to what you want and try to really understand your needs – we don’t want to show you huge numbers of properties that are not what you are looking for – but it is our job to sometimes try to suggest something you haven’t thought about. It is easy to have a fixed idea of what you want – only to find that there’s something better that you had not even considered.

Remember that we can show you anything that is for sale and listed on the Multiple Listing Service – we are not restricted to our own listings. If there is a Florida property that you are particularly interested in that isn’t on the market, we can even try to contact the owners to see if they might consider selling.

This Florida property is a magnificent architect designed work of art – currently listed at $3,900,000

Or what about this amazing property – built for entertaining with an amazing roof terrace giving river and ocean views – recently totally remodeled and asking $1,790,000 – now reduced to $1,495,000.

What about this pretty custom home, built by New Smyrna Beach Construction? Listed at $784,900

With prices starting at under $100,000 to over $3million – we can help you find your dream home in New Smyrna Beach, FL

After all the rain that’s hit New Smyrna Beach recently, we’re looking forward to a perfect Florida summer. The time is right for Florida vacations on the beach. Whilst we have booked much of the summer to vacation renters, we do still have some summer vacancies in the New Smyrna Beach/Bethune Beach, FL area. A surprising number of our renters come from only an hour’s drive inland – to enjoy the sea breezes which make the beach the best place to be in the heat of the summer. Other renters come from all parts of the country, and some from Europe too. People who have left it late to book a Florida vacation rental for the summer are going to find fewer discounts than in the spring, as there is less accommodation left.

However, if you are still looking for a Florida vacation on the beach, we’ve just taken on a beautiful 2 bedroomed ocean front condo on the second floor at Ebb Tide – so we have summer availability here – look at the pictures on our main site. This condo has not been furnished as a vacation rental, it’s been furnished as a home – once you visit it, you won’t want to leave! (In fact, if you want to buy it, it is on the market!)

If you are a snowbird, looking for any time between November and April next year, you will want to book your Florida vacation rental soon. Our regulars have already re-booked for 2010, so vacancies are filling up fast.

Many winter renters want to bring pets – but most condos do not permit pets for renters. If you own a property in the New Smyrna Beach, FL area that you wish to rent out seasonally and you do allow pets – please let us know.

In case you’ve found this New Smyrna Beach FL Realty Blog direct and haven’t looked at our real estate website yet – here’s one of our favourite pictures of the beach to give you a little taster of how beautiful it is.

Just imagine your vacation in Florida relaxing on the beach or surfing or collecting shells or building sandcastles with the children – with your condo just steps away.

Hope we see you soon!
