This is a beautiful unit. We are returning to it from last year and would not consider another unit! I just wish July would come sooner :)

--Sharon and Jack Myer, Anderson, SC, July 14, 2012, Shorehom by the Sea 42


Many thanks to you all for your help and support. It has been a pleasure booking our holiday with you.

--Hilary and Hal Schuldt, Oshawa, ON Canada, May 18, 2012, Pine Street Cottage

We really enjoyed our stay, and should we consider returning next year we will most definitely contact Great Ocean Condos. Many thanks for all the assistance and information you provided. Your service has been excellent.

--Maurice and Yvette Barbeau, Ottawa, ON Canada, April 27, 2012, Golden Arms 302

We were pleasantly surprised to see everything as clean as it was. I have a cleaning business of my own, and pay particular attention to the overlooked areas, like light bulbs and trim work, even under the bed was clean (daughter hid under it one night)! VERY IMPRESSED! Loved this unit, perfect for our family!

– Mark and Michelle Nelson, Newburgh, IN, April 26, 2012, Schooner Point A204


The cleaner did an excellent job of cleaning the condo. It looked beautiful when we arrived! The welcome basket was wonderful. We were starved and ate some of the goodies right away. Thanks for that! The view of the ocean and the beach were amazing for sure. We both enjoyed that tremendously! Thank you all for helping us to rent the condo. All of the greatoceancondos.com employees were wonderful on the phone and via email!

-Donna and Patrick Dacey, Elmiral, NY, April 23, 2012, The Inlet at Minorca 1502


The condo was wonderful!! The kitchen was well equipped with cooking utensils, etc. Everything in the condo was very orderly and neat. Very comfortable beds. We love this unit!!

–Bill and Heather Strickland, Springfield, GA, April 22, 2012, Shorehom by the Sea 21


It was such a wonderful week and the unit was so beautiful and a perfect location.  We had great weather and we felt so lucky to have picked your beautiful condo.  Thank you so much and if we come back you will be the first we contact!

--William and Barbara Tunison, Coldwater, MI, April 14, 2012, Ebb Tide 102

Thank you! We will consider you in the future and spread the news about Atlantic Villas Unit 103. Two of our husbands are Columbus firefighters and good news travels fast.

--Lisa and Richard Young, West Jefferson, OH, April 14, 2012, Atlantic Villas 103


We had a WONDERFUL time we had staying in your beautiful condo! The location was perfect and the complex offered just what our family was looking for in a vacation. Sunrises in Michigan will never be the same after watching them over the ocean!

-Dean and Sandi Whittaker, Rockford, MI, April 9, 2012, Oceanwalk 14-306


We had such an awesome time on our vacation; perfect weather, nice condo, great beach, family etc.  The condo was very appropriate for our family.  Everyone was very comfortable. Everything we needed was there.  What a pleasant surprise that there was beach toys – which we added to tent for the little one – beach towels – I could go on and on.  Many memories made.  Thank you and we hope to come there again! --Robyn and Guy Seymour, Temperance, MI, April 7, 2012, Shore Villas 306S


This is a beautiful, spacious condo- the setting is breathtaking. Our family enjoyed it all, had great family fun, and is taking home beautiful memories. This was our first time in New Smyrna Beach and we loved it! We definitely plan to seek your help again in the future. Things were taken care of in a timely manner and all of you were excellent to work with. Thank you!

-Robert and Martha Rice, Williamsville, NY, April 7, 2012, The Ocean 502

We have really enjoyed the camp, and we will book again. The kids have had fun and we have been fishing a lot.

--Kevin and Kim Buth, Winter Park, FL, March 24, 2012, Fisherman’s Intracoastal Cottage

We loved the unit. We found everything to our satisfaction. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at SGC III Unit 312, and would easily recommend the unit to others

--Mike and Kirstin Noonan, Kemptville, ON, Canada, March 17, 2012, Sea Coast Gardens III 312

We loved it here and will return this summer! -Jim and Adria Clark, Winter Springs, FL, March 17, 2012, Hacienda Del Sol II 306


We had a wonderful week! We were quite pleased with the cleanliness of this unit. It had everything we needed. The grounds of the unit were well kept, very clean, and the pool and pool area were well kept and very nice! We would definitely stay here again. The beach is beautiful! Amazing view from the balcony. Hard to leave such a setting. Thank you!

-Dan and Anne Filbey, Windsor, Ontario, Canada, March 17, 2012, Shorehom by the Sea 47

As far as the home, it’s in excellent condition can't wait to write a positive review of this home. When we got here it was nice and clean, had everything we needed, plenty of towels n bath rags. We are use to having to go out and buy items that were already here for our use. It feels good to vacation in a home away from home and that's just how it feels. It has excellent parking for our trailer with the bikes. Everything was perfect. We are not from this area we came down from North Carolina, but alarm surly makes us feel safe. So far, our stay has been a delightful experience. We promise to leave the home in tip-top shape just like it was when we got here. --Shanita Jackson, Oak Boro, NC, March 12, 2012, Daytona-Historic Marina View


Everything was excellent!!! -Henry and Linda Liefer, March 10, 2012, Belleville, IL, Coronado Landing Duplex


This has been a great condo for our family, I now wish we had booked both weeks here; something to remember for next year. Unlike last year when we stayed at Flounder House, the cleaning staff for this location had done a wonderful job and the place was in excellent condition when we arrived. 

--Doug and Charlotte Coulter, Toronto, ON Canada, March 10, 2012, The Ocean 502

Hello Maggie or Kathi, Thank you for an excellent vacation. You were all very attentive to all of our needs. The unit was very clean and very well cared for. We loved the view and cleanliness of the grounds. We will definitely be back. --Suzanne Ziebold, Hamilton, OH, March 10, 2012, Seaward B404


The Unit was clean and the beds were comfortable. The view is wonderful! Would like to rent again next year!

The House was very clean and had plenty of room for everyone. Convenient location near the manatee park and I enjoyed walking on the beach twice daily. I had a very good time! Thank you!

--Mary Ann Barnhorn, Orlando, FL, March 10, 2012 Atlantic Beach Retreat Bethune

As always, the housekeeping was excellent! The Unit was in great condition and we didn't have a single issue during our visit! See you next year

--Scott and Denise Hilts, Ontario Canada, March 9, 2012 Ebb Tide 106


As far as comments are concerned, the property was fabulous, clean, tastefully decorated, well appointed, comfortable, and we had no complaints.  We had a wonderful time, and look forward to referring you to anyone else who we learn of who may be travelling and in need of accommodations in the area.

-- Shawn and Charlene Van Someren, Thunder Bay, Ontario, March 9, 2012, LaKaSa Hill Street

We have been thrilled by our stay at Errol By the Sea Unit 514. I writing to inquire about the availability for next winter. Looking forward to hearing from you.

--Eddie and Heather Pomykala, Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada, March 3, 2012, Errol by the Sea 514


We have thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful condo and would like to put a deposit on it for March 2013 if possible. Thanks!

--Sanda and Angelo Notarianni, Waterdown, ON Canada, March 3, 2012, Shorehom by the Sea 42

Clean and orderly upon arrival. Very comfortable condo! Also appreciated the kitchen stocked with salt, pepper, condiments, and dishwasher/washer supplies. Very nice and helpful!

--John and Kaye Schroeder, Pawleys Island, SC, March 3, 2012, Hacienda del Sol II 306


Hello, just wanted to say thank you for a lovely condo!  We enjoyed it so much!  Great comfy beds and great appointments throughout the whole condo!!!!   All while getting to sit and just listen to the ocean waves!!!!! We would absolutely love to come back and stay again...and will be recommended also!  Thanks so much!

--The Bowes and The Fosters, Levittown, PA, February 29, 2012, Shorehom by the Sea 14


Just wanted to say again that we really enjoyed staying at the "Riverwalk".  The home is very nice and close to everything.  We will defiantly be looking in to about renting again! Thanks again and I will be referring anybody I know traveling to the area looking for a place to stay to look you guys up!

--Dolly Mechalides, Tyngsboro, MA, February 28, 2012, Riverwalk House


Grateful thanks for your welcoming basket. We love your condo and appreciate the tremendous view.

--Micheline and Alain Payet, Laval, QC Canada, February 25, 2012, The Inlet at Minorca 1502


We have so enjoyed our stay here at Errol by the Sea!

--Nancy Grilli, Columbus, OH, February 25, 2012, Errol by the Sea 514


Kathi, Maggie and all the rest of you, we just wanted to thank you for everything. We had fun and plan to come back next year. Because of the race is always on Sunday I would like to make arrangements like we did this time. Thursday for Tuesday works the best for me; I would like to book early but would like to have 3 bedrooms instead of 2. If you see anything that would work, let me know. Thanks again! --Jan McAlister, St. Francis, MN, February 23, 2012, Fisherman’s Intracoastal Cottage


Thank you so much! What a great place. I may try to come back for a week vacation. We sure enjoyed it!!!

--Jeff Kearns, Concord, NC, February 22, 2012, Southwind 801


This is a beautiful condo, great location!

--Michael Calloway, Great Falls, VA, February 18, 2012 Ebb Tide 106


The condo was very nice, we were very happy. We do hope to stay again.

--John and Donna Brueck, Constantine, MI, February 17, 2012 Le Atlantico 28


Thanks so much for all your assistance. As usual, I’m very impressed with your operation. I will book earlier next year. The economy must be rebounding.

--Dave Sapp, Allenhurst, GA, February 13, 2011, Schooner Point B212

We absolutely LOVE this unit and would be delighted to rent again!

--Sofia Forrest, Ann Arbor, MI, February 11, 2012, The Ocean 502

We enjoyed this unit and would consider this unit or some other for one month next year!

--Arnold and Melinda Hoffman, Malvern, PA, February 11, 2012, Hacienda Del Sol II 306


The unit was very clean! We enjoyed staying in the condo and we had a wonderful time!

--Terry Johnson, Scott Depot, WV, February 11, 2012, Sea Coast Gardens III 217


We were so happy to have the first couple of days be so beautiful since now the weather has been much cooler.  We've been catching lots of blue crab, which has been fun, and a few other fish.  We will be out on Saturday at 10 and then look forward to the beach escape condo at Bethune.

--Katha and Ron Petroelje, Holland, MI, February 4, 2012, Fisherman’s Intracoastal Cottage

This was an amazing condo, lots of space, great appliances, dinnerware, etc.  It was very quiet and really nice to be on the beach.  Even the weather co-operated.  We did have to buy a few small things for the kitchen. Thank you! --Pat Luckhart and Cliff Roberts, Brantford, ON Canada, January 31, 2012, The Wave 801


We loved the place - thanks for all of your help.  We will be back! --Bob and Nancy Prins, Holland, MI, January 31, 2012, Oceanwalk 14-407


The unit is an exceptionally nice condo and we enjoyed the stay. We would like to extend our thanks to your staff and the Steele family for having allowed us to stay here.

--Bruce and Lynn Gulick, Davis Junction, IL, January 28, 2012, The Inlet at Minorca 1502

The Unit was clean and the beds were comfortable. The view is wonderful! Would like to rent again next year!

--Bill and Joann Hewitt, Elyria, OH, January 28, 2012, Ebb Tide 106


Housekeeping was outstanding. Upon arrival, we found everything clean, neat, and sparkling. Thank you for a lovely stay in this beautiful place!

--Barbara King, Edgewater, FL, January 27, 2012, Ebb Tide 106 


Just wanted to thank Kathi for her help in making our reservation for Tradewinds 906 for 2013.  She is always so helpful and pleasant. It is always great to talk with her. To the owner, we just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying in your beautiful condo this winter. Loved the floor plan, the ocean right outside the door and all the mirrors where we could see the view from almost every room. The neighbors in the building were so nice to us. Everyone in the complex was wonderful to us. The staff really does a good job maintaining the property. Best of all its located in my favorite place on the planet, New Smyrna Beach. Can't wait to come back next year! In a few weeks we'll be in sunny Florida just like you guys. It's always a pleasure doing business with you.

--Margie, David, and Itty Bitty, Cincinnati, OH, January 8, 2012, Tradewinds 906

Condo was in good condition and clean. Bedding was great, neat, clean, and very comfortable. Everything was fine. I will miss the sound of the ocean.

--Gene and Kathy Berry, Monroe, LA, January 7, 2012, Sea Coast Condominiums 407


Wishing you a very Happy New Year! We wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful week at the Shore Villas This was our first time renting and we were not sure what to expect, but we enjoyed the condo and were pleasantly surprised at how well equipped everything was. We do hope to go back there again sometime in the future. Best Regards.

--Amit Ganjoo, Stone Ridge, VA, January 2, 2012, Shore Villas 306S

Our 2011 Reviews


I just wanted you to know we have really enjoyed using your condo here in NSB. I believe Oceanwalk is one of the best resorts here and highly recommend others to use it as well. This is my last night here so I will make sure the condo is better than when we arrived. All in all this is a great place to stay. Thanks again for the great response when the fridge quit. That was very impressive!

--Carl and Gisela Wiebe, Winnipeg, Canada, December 30, 2011, Oceanwalk Unit 9-205


Loved the Unit! Had a great time! Would like to come back! --Frank Wyatt, December 27, 2011, Ocean Club at Turtle Mound 207


We just wanted to say thank you for taking such good care of us. We have enjoyed our stay and we got to spend Christmas with my Mom and siblings. The weather has been perfect. When we get home tomorrow night the wind chill is supposed to be -2, with 3 inches of snow. But it will be good to be home. Please thank Mrs. Wall for being such a gracious host. We took good care of her home and hope to come back someday. I will be scanning your site for a Sept/Oct vacation, so I hope to be talking with you soon. Thanks again for your help!

--Robert and Barbara Snyder, Oneonta, NY, December 27, 2011 Errol by the Sea 410

Hi Jeff! We love you guys - I checked your website for months before we booked our first condo and fell in love with the site - both its ease of use and the listings on it. My husband is from NSB. He grew up there and his mom still lives in town. For several years we just stayed with her but now our family is really too big to put her out so we started renting. We loved Oceanwalk and now can't wait to try the Wave. Jeff, your service at Great Ocean Condos has been fantastic and we really want to thank you. We hope to be back again this summer as well. Thanks for making it so easy for our family to travel such a long distance and have fun while doing it! Happy Holidays!

--Kristin Glunt, San Francisco, CA, December 18, 2011, The Wave 801


I just wanted to let you know that the two men you sent to fix problems in our condo were great!  They were very competent, helpful, and nice. They arrived quickly as well. We love this place and will recommend it to others. --Carol Bailey and Skip Fuhrman, Pearisburg, VA, December 17, 2011, Chadham by the Sea 212


I wanted to compliment the unit. Everything was spotless and well- stocked!

-- Jennifer Smith, December 12, 2011, Sea Coast Gardens III 513


Thank you again. We are enjoying our stay and are happy with our place. The service is great and the view is the envy of everyone back home in New York.

--Robert and Barbara Snyder, Oneonta, NY, December 6, 2011, Errol by the Sea 410


We had a wonderful stay.

-- Eric and Kristi Jamieson, Hagerville, ON, November 25, 2011, Shorehom by the Sea 14


My family and I just spent November 3-13th at the Wave, unit #801. It was amazing. Nothing like being right on the beach and then to be up that high looking down on the ocean everyday was perfect. It was easy to find, a beautiful well-kept building, very private and we felt very safe. The pictures on the greatoceancondos.com website showed the penthouse exactly as it was, no surprises. Just a great, great place. We loved all the windows and all the beautiful tile work and that they had everything we needed. We got a lot of use out of the beach towels, boogie boards, chairs, and sand buckets. The pool and the ocean were perfect. The next time I come to New Smyrna to see my son, I will definitely stay at the Wave. It was perfect. We has come in for my son’s wedding and a few people that live in New Smyrna Beach stopped by, they all loved the place and said that when they have out of town guests, they would let them know about the Wave. Please pass this on to the owners that we loved the place and appreciate them sharing it with us. I have looked at the photos every day since we have we got back. I miss it and wish I was still there. Thank you so much for all of your help.

--Barbara Applegate, Cincinnati, Ohio, November 24,2011, The Wave 801


Hi, we had a fabulous trip...great condo! We are hoping to all go back next November and renting an additional unit as well.

--Ken and Kelley Love, Tottenham, ON, November 11, 2011, Oceanwalk 14-307

Thank you so much for your assistance with SH64.  Sometimes it is difficult to explain situations over the phone.  We had a great time and as usual hated to leave.  Gordon, the owner, was very helpful with the window blind situation.  He removed it for the duration of our stay to have it repaired because he agreed with me that it was broken.  We were out shopping when he removed it so I did not get the opportunity to meet him.  Sounds like a great guy. Please tell Gordon that we had a great time and definitely want to return again.  I decided not to call him myself because I do not want to disturb him.  Tell him that I will assist him occasionally in paying for his son and daughter to get through school, Ha! As always we treat the condos as we would our own home. Nannette Perez did an excellent job of preparing the condo for our stay.  I forgot to call her the day before our departure to inform her that we would be out of the condo by 6:00am this morning.  At least the time change gave us one additional hour of sleep. Again, thank you and we look forward to coming back.

--Larry Neuner, Owensboro, KY, November 6, 2011, Shorehom 64


Jeff and Jennifer, I would like to thank greatoceancondos for such great service.  Kathi and Maggie do a great job.  Your service is the sole reason why we continue to use 

greatoceancondos and look forward to using the $75.00 gift card in the near future. Kathi (greatoceancondos) and Gordon (owner of SH64) went above and beyond in assisting us during our recent stay in November.  It is nice to know that my contributions/money will be going towards Education whenever booking SH64. Many Thanks.

--Larry and Cindy Neuner, Owensboro, KY, October 30, 2011, Shorehom by the Sea Unit 64
This was the most well stocked unit we have ever stayed in! It was so nice to have plenty of towels (bath, beach, and kitchen) and it was nice to have beach toys and basic pantry items to use!
--Andrew and Betsy Ryan, Winter Park, FL, October 20, 2011, Hacienda Del Sol II 517

Thank you so much for your patience and timeliness in getting my reservation booked! I really appreciate your help and making this so easy—I have not booked a condo this way before and you made it a very informative and seamless experience. Kathi was so pleasant and a real pro!  Thank you, again!

--Melinda Starnes, Apopka, Fl, October 15, 2011, Ocean Reef Villas 311


We had a great time at 302. Great weather too!

--John Conboy, Orlando, FL, October 12, 2011, Atlantic Villas 302


We had a wonderful time.  We loved your condo and felt the lay-out/location was just perfect! Looking forward to a return trip!

--Kraig & Lori Rock, Buford, GA, October 12,2011, Ebb Tide 106


Just wanted to let you know that this place has just been perfect for us.  I think the location and the view is just unreal.  We’re very sad to have to say goodbye to it on Tuesday!

--Stacey Chambers, Amherst, NY, October 9, 2011, The Ocean 502


My families' stay at Unit 42 was by far the best vacation we have had! The area is very peaceful and the room was the cherry on top! They supply you with everything you could ever need including games and toys for the kids! Thank You very much for the peace of mind while we were on vacation!

--Julie Young, Lynchburg, Ohio, September 26, 2011, Shorehom 42


We had a great trip and really enjoyed our stay.  We were sad to leave today!  We got lucky and had great weather.  We loved the beach, the surfing and the view from the condo.  We'll be back again.

--Linda Kelly, Jacksonville, FL, September 25, 2011, Shore Villas 306S


Hey, thanks! We had a wonderful time and loved the condo. The beach was so quiet. I've never seen the water calmer. We would love to stay at New Smyrna again and will be traveling again in the next year so we'll be in touch. We would highly recommend your services.

-- Mrs. Kerry Hook, Payne, Ohio, September 2, 2011, Shore Villas 306S


I would just like to compliment Maggie for all of the help she was to us when we had the air-conditioning problem at Flounder House.  She talked to me and kept me informed even when she wasn't on duty and for that I am very grateful.  I also appreciate the refund of one night's stay.  Thank you for being responsible people and caring about your guests. I would love to come back to one of your properties at another time.

-- Judy Rodich, The Villages, FL, August 31,2011, Flounder House


This was the best vacation we have had at New Smyrna Beach! This condo is amazing. It is beautifully furnished and has everything you need to feel at home. We are so glad the owners have decided to share their paradise with others who truly see the value and want to make lasting memories with their family and friends.

--Rodney & Paula Russ, Orlando, FL, August 29, 2011Hacienda Del Sol II 517

I have to say that I was very impressed with the quality of customer service you and your company provided in making this reservation and then trying to iron out a solution.  You went over and above and your prompt follow-up was very impressive.  In a world where customer service is not always a top consideration, it is so refreshing to find the kind of service you and your company provides.  My husband and I will be contacting your office when the time comes to book our winter 2013 and we will book both months at New Smyrna Beach.

Thank you for handling this cancellation with the condo and the insurance company.  I hope to talk to you in the future. 

--Mary and George Roberts, Springfield, MA, August 24, 2011


Being an artist I know inputs are important in making your service better. We stayed the last week of July. But I wanted to thank you so much for your place. It was beautiful, well kept, clean and a perfect size for all of us. The pool was also a wonderful asset to all of it and walking right on the beach.  I know this sounds a little weird but having things like the hangers, accessories in the kitchen, the tent in the closet, games of sorts, movies to watch on the TV, is a very home feeling comfort as well.

We had my whole family staying at condos on New Smyrna Beach and from what they saw when they came to visit, I think ours in one they favored. Thank you again and we will keep you in mind for next year.

--Lisa Lowell, Carey, NC, August 23, 2011, Errol by the Sea 316


Hi there, Just a happy and satisfied Great Ocean Condos customer- thanks for making the experience easy and perfect. We love condo 14-407 where we are currently staying and wanted to check availability for the last two weeks in December, this year. Is it avail and if so can you let me know rates? Thanks!

--Dan and Kristin Glunt, San Francisco, CA, August 23, 2011, OW 14-407


Hi Jeff, Dale Guillot, your guest in 405 this last week, we had an awesome week just as we did last year. Your place was first class as always! We really enjoyed your space, feels like a second home to us! Thank you for renting us your condo, we appreciate the service you provide! --Dale & Angel Guillot, Boerne, Texas, Ebb Tide 405, August 21, 2011


We had a great time. Ebb Tide 102 was a great unit. Well stocked and we would love to rent this unit again in the future. Thanks.

--Kay Visconti, Leesburg, FL, August 20, 2011, Ebb Tide 102


Hey, thanks! We had a wonderful time and loved the condo. The beach was so quiet. I've never seen the water calmer. I understand that changed a week later! Hope you are all ok! We would love to stay at New Smyrna again and will be traveling again in the next year so we'll be in touch.

We would highly recommend your services. Sincerely,

--Mrs. Kerry Hook, Payne, Ohio, August 18, 2011, Shore Villas 306S

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Hexter's condo this past week.  It was a great location on the beach for a family vacation, the condo was clean and everything was in good working condition.  As we relocate from Atlanta to Winter Park next month we hope to rent from you again in the future on New Smyrna Beach.

-Rod & Lisa Dir, Atlanta, GA, August 15, 2011, Mediterranean 403


We had a marvelous week at the condo. It was beautifully decorated, clean and the view was spectacular. Everything we could have possibly needed was there for us. All of us agreed that we would love to go back.

- Gillian Karlberg, Fruitland Park, FL, August 8,2011, Chadham by the Sea 212


Loved the condo at Ebb Tide. Please express our appreciation to the owners and everyone responsible for keeping it so nice. We absolutely loved it, would stay there again and recommend it to others. Many thanks,

Loved the condo at Ebb Tide! Please express our appreciation to the owners and everyone responsible for keeping it so nice. We absolutely loved it, would stay there again and recommend it to others. Many thanks!

--Lynn & Jim Ireland, Chatanooga, TN, August 6, 2011, Ebb Tide 201

As in 106, unit was pristine. No negative comments re housekeeping. Everyone enjoyed that nautical décor and all the lighthouses-fun. We had a good time spotting them. Nice unit-really appreciate all the supplies-soap, toilet tissue, laundry, etc., very helpful.

-Pat Cooper, Lexington, KY, August 6, 2011, Ebb Tide 404


We had a wonderful week at the Flounder House and hope to rent again in the future. 

- Marguerite Terwilleger, Sanford, FL, August 6, 2011, Flounder House


Bottom line-this is one of the best vacations(very relaxing) that I have ever had.

-Kay Entrekin, Tucker, GA, August 6, 2011, Ebb Tide 106


Nicely furnished and lovely view.

-Asher Family, Winter Park, FL, July 23,2011, Southeaster B211


Thanks so much for a lovely week at Surfside #230!! Our family enjoyed it so much! I grew up going to New Smyrna every summer and staying in a condo and it brought back so many memories! #230 was furnished so perfectly for us since we had 5 kids with us all week! Plenty of room for all to be comfortable! Nice big table for all to eat and even do a large puzzle or play dominos together! Great time had by all! Would love to come back next year! Thanks again!

- Cyndie and James Pearson, Merritt Island, FL, July 23, 2011, Surfside 230


Thanks so much for the opportunity to stay in your condo July 2 - July 9. We had a wonderful time! We hope that you found everything appropriate after we left. We would love to return next year at the same time if it is available. Thanks again for your hospitality!

- Duane and Sheila Schriver; Cleveland, TN, July 23, 2011, Surfside 230


Unit was pristine, we have never been in a cleaner unit. Zero complaints about the unit.

 - Harry and Pat Cooper, Lexington, KY, July 23, 2011, Ebb Tide 106


Our family just returned home from our NSB vacation; it was great. Just wanted to say what a pleasure (and so simple) it was renting through your company. We truly enjoyed our stay in Ebb Tide/Unit 404.  It was just as described and pictured on the webpage, and was super clean, brightly lit, and welcoming when we arrived.  All of the kitchen, bath, and beach items we could possibly need were provided and in good condition.  (We’ve been to beach houses before with beach chairs so rusted and worn they couldn’t be used – not the case with this unit.)   Thanks to everyone, especially Maggi, Kathi, & Kelly, for your prompt and caring attention; we’d gladly use your service again.  Hopefully we’ll be able to schedule another visit within the year.

- Julie P., July 17, 2011, Ebb Tide 404


Dear Owners, I just got off the phone with your very professional and business minded ( yet friendly and personable Maggie. I hope you can see what an asset she is to your company. She has sent us numerous emails and kept in contact until we said, "This place is the one!" I hope if I ever had a company that I had employees like this lady. What a plus for a company to have. Know your property is in good hands with such employees who return calls on Sunday afternoons. Maggie was very thorough going through the things we needed to know. We've never stayed in New Smyrna.  I was not expecting to hear from anyone but got this all settled before leaving on a business trip. We are looking forward to staying in your beautiful residence and may consider it again the next time we come. Blessings to you all.

This unit was wonderful, wonderfully-appointed and a great location! Thank you again for the wonderful stay.

Even before we left on vacation, our dealings with Great Ocean Condos were friendly and efficient, instilling a confidence that we were well on our way to a perfect stay!  This was a vacation of a lifetime for us, generously provided by my beloved brother Patrick, and this unit provided the perfect location and comforts for just such an occasion!  Upon our arrival to this condo we were instantly both relaxed and smitten with the beauty and practicality of this unit.  The owners REALLY understood how to vacation as a family here as they made certain that everything a family could need to have a home away from home was provided.  With a family size of seven, I KNOW I am not understating this and in fact, cannot emphasis this enough: )  I can even remember a moment while cooking when I thought, "it would be great if there was an apron here..." only to discover one in the drawer!!!  Literally, all the utensils and kitchen "extras" I brought from home were totally unnecessary as Jeff and Jennifer thought of everything!  My brother Patrick and my family and I will cherish our moments at your condo for a lifetime!  The sounds of the waves both on the beach and from the spectacular ocean view of your balcony, playing in the surf, discovering "sea creatures" (as my children referred to them), the refreshing plunges in the heated pool, the way just sitting on the beach as the sunshine and surf soothed your soul, etc. lent itself to literally, the most relaxing experience we have ever experienced in our lives.  If you are looking to simply savor daily living right on the beach where enjoying the beach with your loved ones is your primary goal, this is the ideal unit for you and your family.  Thank you Jeff and Jennifer for graciously opening your home to us to afford our family the stay of lifetime: )  Lord willing, we will return one day to soak it all in again.  On behalf of my brother Patrick and The Chapman Family,  

Thanks again for all your help in making our stay so wonderful! Take care and Lord bless

We decided to take a family trip for the first time in several years. Were we looking for beaches near Orlando so that we could take a day trip over.  New Smyrna Beach looked like the perfect spot. Within no time at all I came upon the GREAT OCEAN CONDOS website.  The website was easy to understand and very well organized. I was able to quickly select the condo “Shorehom by the Sea” and date that we were hoping for.  All my questions were easily answered on the website and the staff was very helpful with any further concerns that I had. We were even given an opportunity to upgrade at no extra charge due to availability. The staff thought that the room would be better for us because we have 3 children. What GREAT customer service! Upon arrival we found the condo to be very beautiful and clean with everything that we needed. The residents and management of the condos were extremely friendly. We did not want to leave and will definitely be returning. See you soon!

 Thanks very much for this, Kelly, and for your kind and helpful customer service. I hope these owners know how lucky they are to have a great agent working for them!

I also would like to share our experience with you.....we had an amazing time!  The condo is beautiful.  It was so accommodating for our family.  It is such a 'family' home!!  The kitchen is abundant with all your needs.  I have rented a lot of 'vacation' homes and have never found such a well stock kitchen.  The comment on your website about not needing to go out for dinner was right, we did cook dinner twice.  The beds were very comfortable and the three bathrooms worked well for all of us.   I loved that we could just walk out the sliding glass door and just about land in the pool and a little further into the ocean.  I was a little concerned about being ground level, but really liked it.  My niece and granddaughter had plenty to keep them busy if they were inside....lots of 'toys'....we did have some rain that week.   There were no complaints from anyone, even the workout room was good.  If I had only one disappointment to express, it would be the fact you could not leave any windows open, I love the sound of the ocean....but I totally understand the salt residue.............and I'm sure we will be back next year! Thank you so much!

I really like your web site – how you answer – the pictures you show.  Very happy with it all.

--Robyn Seymour, Temperance, MI, April 15, 2011, Shore Villas 306S
Hello all, I had looked at the paperwork to evaluate our stay and left it at the condo.  It was beautiful, clean and so well equipped that is exceeded our expectations. I have already given your site to friends who are thinking of planning a trip and wonder if you have other areas of Florida covered so to speak.  Our three year old grandbaby loved all the shells and brought some home in her "memory box".  I think there must have been another child there sometime before us as there was a small collection already started in the vee of the shrub bank.  It was her inspiration!  Thanks for the certificate for return guests.  I hope the future holds another trip and I am sure we would  return to Ebb Tide.

Just wanted to drop a line to thank you very much for the first week of March at 905 Flounder. We all enjoyed our stay at your home so very much. I just have to say that we have rented a few homes over the years and yours is now our "hands down" favorite. Totally the best equipped and well maintained home we have had yet and it made our stay so comfortable. Loved your neighbor across the street as well they were fantastic to us.

Kathi, I would like to take the time to say that we, my brother, my wife and I, really enjoyed our stay in Shorehom Unit #64.  The condo felt 'homey' as soon as we walked through the front door.  We would definitely return again and also recommend it to others. We would like to thank the owners of unit #64 for their hospitality in allowing us the use of their home during our stay in Florida.

First let me preface this review, I had not been to New Smyrna Beach in over 18 years and knew that NSB is more of a condo town than hotel/motel town. Previously I have stayed on Atlantic Avenue in two different condo complexes. In searching VRBO I stumbled upon the Majorca/Inlet properties and decided (after reading the most favorable reviews) to try this property. This unit was spectacular the view, the amenities, as clean as you would keep your own home, the accommodations were as my husband remarked, "out of the ballpark!" We travel quite extensively for business and pleasure and this was a 5 star stay for us. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the balcony watching the surfers along the beach, the gym was great, the grounds lush and well kept, quiet and relaxing! We hope to return to this property again when time allows. You can't go wrong staying here.

Thanks Jeff, I have been taken care of already. Your people are awesome. I have never seen such a fast response to my inquiry. We will be renting the Flounder house Sept. 16 thru Sept 23rd. I had received a response from another property on the beach just before I confirmed the Flounder house, but decided to keep with you all because of the great service and I feel safe renting from your company. This is our first time renting a place and don't know the ins and outs. Afraid of renting a place that doesn't exist, ect. Again Thank You!
- Pam Costello, Queen Creek, AZ, August 28, 2010, Flounder House
Hi Jennifer, Thank you for handling our deposit so quickly! We have nothing but the best to say about our dealings with you and Jeff Hopefully, we'll see you in 2012.
- Patty Monroe, Queensbury, NY, August 22, 2010, Sea Coast Gardens II 504
I would like to thank everyone at your office for all their help making our vacation the less stressful one I've had in years.  My family was extremely pleased with the condo, the location and everything about it. Of course I got too much sun - but it was worth it. I would like to express my thanks for the help in all the trivial matters - i.e. couldn't open lock box - getting the wireless internet working again (my husband thanks you for that) I will recommend your company to my friends and will definitely contact you next year! We had a great time - thank you again.

I just wanted to say that my family and I really enjoyed our stay at Tradewinds. We had a great time and would like to pass out thanks along to you and the owner.

My wife and her parents stayed at Ebb Tide 405, it was simply awesome ! Everything the listing stated was true. The condo was beautifully decorated and we had everything you could ever need to enjoy our vacation. It was clean inside and out. The pole area was clean and had gas grills for our use. The beach was Gorgeous and not very crowed. We all agreed it was the most relaxing vacation we had ever been on and the owners, Jeff & Connie were great with all aspects of the trip. They were prompt to reply and respond back when we had any questions. I was very impressed with there attention to detail and professionalism. The condo had amazing views and was close to excellent restaurants such as Black beards, Bostons and the Dolphin view restaurant. We also chartered a fishing trip at the marina with Char Gin and had a great day of fishing. The garage was full of all kinds of beach stuff such as surf boards,beach chairs, fishing poles, kayaks and everything else we needed to make the beach even more enjoyable. The town was very family friendly and had the best atmosphere for just relaxing. I would suggest this awesome condo to anyone and we plan on making it our vacation destination for many years to come.
