The home is a part of a small private neighborhood - this one being right on the beach. It is very clean and the common areas are all recently remodeled, with a touch of vintage design still apparent. The owners Gordon and Cathy are meticulous about their property, and it shows in how well the property is maintained. The house perfectly met our needs, with a beautiful front bedroom facing the sea, a second bedroom that perfectly accommodated our young toddler, and another back bedroom with a private bath. The common areas, living, dining, and kitchen spaces were great. The house is well-stocked with everything you would need as a visitor - beach towels, chairs, and toys, kitchen supplies, and all kinds of thoughtful details and extras. Great place and great hosts.

This is our second year staying at Gordon & Cathy's house. We just love it. It is relaxing and convenient if you are interested in visiting Daytona, Palm Coast and other areas along the coast. We hope to go again in 2025.

Host sent us a message about the SpaceX launch and we watched it from the front yard.

The house was the perfect size for our group of six (4 adults, 2 elementary aged kids). The kitchen was well stocked, and there were beach chairs and toys for us to borrow as well. Just a short walk across the yard to the gate to access the beach. Definitely hope to return!

This was a wonderful place. Can’t beat being this close to the ocean. The property and home are very well maintained and has everything we needed inside and out. Communication with the host was great and they gave us many suggestions for dining, stores and things to do in the area. The locals in the area are very friendly and welcoming. Thanks to hosts Gordan and Cathy for all you gave us to make this such a great trip.

We couldn’t be happier with this property! Great location, clean and right on the beach!

Beautiful oceanfront home. Views are fantastic. Just steps from the beach.

A true Florida home experience. GREAT location and less then 40 steps to the beach. We have never stayed so close. The house for us was perfect. They have everything we needed for a wonderful stay. Gordon was in constant communication with us from the time of making the reservation until check out. The small neighborhood was quite and everyone was super friendly. We will stay again.

EVERYTHING you could possibly dream of. Gordon and Cathy were the BEST host you could have. The house was fully stocked and not lacking anything. This is a special place. ENJOY

Home by the Sea was the perfect location for our family’s 4th of July vacation. Gordon was easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. We hope to be back soon!

Absolutely beautiful home by the ocean. Our Family enjoyed it so much we will book again for 2024. That would make 3 years in a row. Gordon is outstanding property manager. Always making sure you have everything you need for your stay Thank you very much Gordon!!

Couldn’t possibly get any closer to the beach! Had everything we needed and then some.

This was the second time we have rented this property. It is a great location and the house is wonderful - clean, spacious, and well stocked with everything you should need. Even lots of beach toys for the children.

We all enjoyed our stay! Very comfortable, beach and view were right there. Great view for space shuttles. Great place for a restful vacation!

This is our 4th time at Home by the Sea. The name is exactly how we feel about this place, at Home. We have already booked our stay for next year. The house is steps from the beach. We visit in April and the beach has never been crowded. This week we watched kite surfers, surfers, paddle boarders, dolphins, pelicans and I swear I thought I saw a whale tail. We spent hours soaking up sunshine, warmth and recharging. So great to be right at the the beach and not have to to lug all the things. Gordon and Cathy are excellent hosts and are great at communication. They are a pleasure to work with. We are counting down the days till we will be Home by the Sea again.

Beautifully renovated property and fully stocked with towels, kitchen ware, beach chairs, etc. The additional outdoor shower was great! We practically had the whole beach to ourselves. Clean sand and water... No weeds! Minutes from dining and shopping. We never had to wait to be seated at a restaurant, which is rare for spring break! Gordon made checking in and out easy and was quick to respond if I had a question. And the VIEW. Wow! It was a wonderful week and we hated to leave.

This was our second year in Gordon & Cathy’s Home by the Sea and we loved it even more this year than last. The location and view are unbeatable! The kitchen is well stocked for cooking, baking, and hanging out on the island/ counter for games at night. The recliners are a fan fave to watch TV at night as well. The property is CLEAN and well cared for. Plenty of beach accessories as well! We will return again to Home by the Sea!

Great beach access! House was roomy. Loved the patio.

Perfect views with no steps into property and good mother in law suite.

Really nice, Old Florida feel with the convenience of all that the area has to offer. My family and I enjoyed this place so much, wonderful people in the community and Gordon was outstanding!

From the time we chose Home by the Sea to the time we left was amazing. The house is in a perfect spot and everything we needed was there. Gordon and Cathy were super helpful and informative.

This home was even more than we expected! We had everything we needed and more in the house with our own little oasis and private beach access right outside! Can’t wait to book our next get away!

This home is perfect. Kind of like a small neighborhood. You are not surrounded by a bunch of huge, tall condos. Private. This house has everything you need. Including children's toys. You can't ask for more.

Great property for our family of 6. Kids ranging in age from 2-9 House was steps from the beach which made our life easy! House was clean and communication with renter was excellent. Highly recommend.

Super cute house, just steps to the beach, comfy beds, loved it!

Easy process and excellent communication! Property was spotless. I have always admired this type of “cottage by the sea”.

We needed to relax and that is what we did . Great place just to set back and watch the ocean and watch the great sunrise. Worth every penny.

The house is in a great location. Gordon and Cathy are great hosts. We only had one maintenance issue and they responded and fixed it immediately. I hope to stay there again.

Perfect week on the Beach with family. Gordon was very helpful the entire time. House was clean and comfortable. Had everything you needed for a great relaxing and fun week on the Beach. Will be back.

Lovely home. Perfect for our family of 4 and room of course to invite 2 more guest. We stayed 2 weeks and its the perfect getaway for our busy lifestyle back home. The beach is private and the neighbors who live there are super nice.

Can't say enough about what a great property this is! Direct oceanfront with private beach access from the yard. Literally steps to the sand. There were lots of little extras (beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, etc.). Walking distance to several great restaurants, shops and grocery store. Gordon is a fabulous host who made us feel very welcome and gave lots of suggestions for local activities. We'll definitely be back. Very highly recommend!

Excellent
