Home Away From Home
Beautiful and Spacious Condo! Ms. Perkins, the condo owner, was very sweet and quick to respond during booking. Upon arrival, everyone was helpful. We truly felt like we were at home. The condo is literally equipped with everything you need during your stay in DBS. I was worried about the 1st floor view, but it was perfect! We appreciated the number of towels provided and the 10 beach towels(all matching). Loved the family pics in the unit and the sweet gifts left for our arrival. My daughter enjoyed the fresh flowers. Look forward to next year!

Condo Unit 101 was more than expected
My family and I stayed in Unit 101 and the condo was absolutely beautiful! We were pleasantly surprised at how big the condo was and we had more than enough room. The condo was very well stocked in the kitchen. The only issue we had was with their management company. Upon arrival after confirming our arrival time the day before it took several attempts to get a hold of someone to let us in. However, Ms Shirley was quick to follow up and make sure we got in. Then the lady in the office when picking up the parking pass had a less than desirable attitude. Perhaps she was having a bad day. But the whole process of booking with Ms Perkins was seamless and she was always available to answer questions. I would recommend renting any of Ms Perkins condos. I know we will back. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home and allowing us to make beautiful memories for our family.

I'm really glad you enjoyed the condo. I strive to make each condo feel like home to everyone staying there. The people that help me in Daytona are great and seem to be loved by all my guest. They are usually very punctual and right on time, so I'm unsure what happened with the communication.
Family Vacation
What a beautiful unit. Location is wonderful and Shirley was so nice to work with. Would definitely stay in any of her units.

Perfect Condo
This is our second time staying at one of your condos on the first floor , everything was perfect and the condo is beautiful and spacious. Having the pool steps from the patio was a plus with the kids and hot tub for the adults. Shirley is very pleasant and easy to book with, makes our stay wonderful. Looking forward to returning next year Thank you Shirley.Lisa C

Thanks Jan, it helps having wonderful guest.
Beautiful, convenient, and comfortable
This spacious condo was the perfect spot for three generations to meet for a beach trip! We loved being on the first floor and not having to take kids and beach paraphernalia on elevators. The condo is lovely and having a bathroom for each bedroom is a plus. We especially enjoyed the patio which was big enough to seat everyone comfortably. The children loved easy access to the pool and are already asking for another beach trip at the same condo. The adults want to come back, too! Thank you, Shirley, for knowing exactly what we needed.

Beautiful Walkout Unit!
We’ve stayed in the building before but never on the ground floor. It was a beautifully decorated unit and so convenient to walk directly out to the pool area and down to the beach. We took my 83-year-old father and made some wonderful memories here. Thank you for allowing us to experience one of the best family beach trips we’ve ever had!

Perfect for our family!
This was our first time staying in this condo and we loved it! Great location, very clean, and lots of room for everyone. We come home to Daytona a couple times a year with our kids and have stayed at many different condos. This is one of our favorites now. It was a blessing to visit my family and have a great place to stay. Thanks so much, Shirley!
