A little side note: If you have ever stayed at Walt Disney's luxury, up-scale Vacation Club villas -- i.e. Animal Kingdom Lodge, Wilderness Lodge, Boardwalk Resort, Beach Club, Old Key West, Hilton Head or Vero Beach -- this is the same type of quality you will experience in our beach condo.

Guest Testimonials:
Tricia and Tim, Our stay in unit 905 at the Sand Dollar, right on the beach, has been most enjoyable. It definitely was a “home” away from home.
There were no amenities lacking and we were very impressed by the cleanliness and impeccable décor. It is evident that a great deal of time, effort and thought has gone into making the unit as eye-pleasing and comfortable as it is.
We will both miss the sunshine on the balcony, our afternoons by the pool and our morning walks on the beach. We go home with many fond memories of our Florida vacation at Daytona Beach Shores.
Hopefully, we will return in the future and do it again. Thank you both very, very much.

Tim and Tricia,
What a lovely condo. It was a privilege to spend 2 weeks in this attractive, lovely place. We have enjoyed the beach every day and the pool and the Jacuzzi. We were so tired when we arrived.
We are leaving much rested. The condo was quiet with unbelievable sunsets and sunrises. It was so nice to have our family reunion here and lots of good food.
We hope we will be able to come back next year.
Tricia, your instructions were very adequate and I know you are proud of your condo. It was so unique to see the intercoastal as well as the ocean. So comfortable and cozy.
Thanks Much, Eleanor and Ben
P.S. We especially enjoyed all the videos and CD’s, as our 6-year-old was kept entertained! What a restful place! I work in youth detention and have needed a lot of sleep. Your beautiful bedroom and lovely beach was “just what the Doctor ordered!”
Thank You Again! Jennifer & Rick (and Chris) ___________________________
Dear Dunlevy’s,
Our week here at the Sand Dollar was wonderful. We enjoyed lots of sun and warm weather. Everyone here was very friendly and helpful all week. We hope to return again next year and want to thank you for allowing us to share your home. It really was like a little piece of heaven.
Thank you. Bill and Debbie (Warren, Ohio) ___________________
Dear Tim & Tricia,
Just a little note to let you know that my husband and I truly enjoyed your stay at your condo. Our stay will be an unforgettable one. It was just what we needed to come home to after working all day (at the Daytona 500 Races).
It felt very warm and was truly comfortable -- so comfortable that my husband and I will be purchasing the exact same mattress you have in the master bedroom.
Everyone here was very nice and hospitable. We especially enjoyed the peace and quiet. Again, it was our pleasure, and we will definitely be giving you a call back. We hope to be visiting your wonderful condo again next year.
Thank you for being so nice and accommodating.
Thank you, Two Happy People!!! Mike and Maria Chandler, AZ __________________
Dear Tricia & Tim,
We had a GREAT time! Your condo is beautiful! The view from the balcony is outstanding! The weather was great (only 1 day without sun). The sunrises and sunsets were truly awesome! The time went by way too fast. We hate to leave and go back to the “daily grind”.
Thank you for the opportunity to stay in your home!

Many thanks from my whole family. We had a blast and the place is great! Mom loves the décor more here than her condo 901. A great pleasure to meet you, Tricia (via internet and phone). I will be back next year!

Hi Tricia,
We had an amazing time in Daytona. It was relaxing and fun. I didn’t know at the time we would be down there, but we even got to watch the space shuttle launch!
Thanks for renting us your condo. Tim and you have a beautiful place!
We took a few of your cards to pass on to some of friends who may be looking for a place.
Thanks again, Jackie B.
P.S. You were right about the great location of your condo. All of us parents were glad not to be in the “festive” area of Daytona (as you had put it to me). ________________________________
Dear Tim & Tricia,
Our week in your condo has been very enjoyable. We have spent countless hours playing on the beach and swimming in the pool. The kids have had a wonderful time collecting shells. We survived (and very much enjoyed) a day at Sea World, along with every other Spring Breaker from the North. We have had beautiful weather for the first week in April. It has been mostly in the upper 70’s/80’s. Thank you for a great vacation experience. It was our first spring break family vacation and it has been one to remember. Thank you for letting us stay in your home.

Tim & Tricia,
Thank you for such a wonderful condo. This was our 1st trip and we couldn’t have asked for anything better! The beautiful sunrise and sunset were just the tip of the great things we saw. My personal favorite was the daily dolphin sightings! Each morning they played close to shore and it was a sight I’ll never forget. One other great sighting was the space shuttle launch! Again, something we’ll never forget. It amazed us that we could see it so clearly from the balcony.
The folks here at the condo were very nice – especially the superintendent. We look forward to our next visit and will most definitely request your condo again.
Thanks again and God Bless, Mike & Amy (Columbus, Ohio) _____________________
Dear Tim and Tricia,
We had an awesome time here. We did a lot of really fun things, and I’m sure we will be back next year. Your condo is the nicest one we have ever stayed in.

Dear Tim and Tricia,
The four of us all enjoyed our stay here in your wonderful condo. Thank you for being so helpful and making your condo feel like home. The beach was more beautiful than we could have every expected. While visiting we took a tour with Sun Cruz Casino, which actually helped us financially. We also enjoyed a fun-filled day at Sea World.
Although we are fighting sunburn and sad to leave, we again wanted thank you for everything, and look forward to staying in #905 in the future.

Disclosure
It was a great place to stay. However, there was so much construction and renovation going on that is was all we could hear. During the day was so noisy and loud. If that would have been disclosed when I rented it, I don’t think I would have done it. I wanted to relax and hear the ocean.

We had a great stay with our family of 4. The storm brought in rough waves but it was fun. The pool was never crowded when we wanted to relax but still view the ocean. The balcony faced the ocean, the lot, and the river.

Perfect Place for Our Girls' Getaway
First of all, the check-in process was a breeze. Jennifer made it very easy by sending me the keys in the mail two weeks ahead of time, along with some information about the property and the area. When we arrived, we were delighted. The condo is very clean and comfortable. My daughter, my sister, and I came for the beach, and this was a great location for that! The condo was the perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun. The beds were very comfy, the kitchen had everything we needed, and everything was very clean! I loved the view of the ocean and the river; sitting on the balcony in the evenings was absolutely beautiful. I also enjoyed getting up at sunrise and walking on the beach. Beautiful location to enjoy the sunrise!! My pictures are breathtaking! I appreciated how Jennifer called me a few days before departure to go through instructions. She also texted me the day of arrival. It was nice having her number for questions. It is clear they take pride in providing a great experience for their guests. Five stars! Highly recommend!

Very clean and beautifully decorated condo with view of ocean and river.
We thoroughly enjoyed our Daytona visit in this lovely condo. Kitchen was large and had everything we needed The leather sofas in living room were very comfortable. The king size bed in the master bedroom was soooo awesome. I have some back issues and usually wake up with a very stiff back in the morning, but I had no problems the whole time I was here.
The condo was beautifully and tastefully decorated. It is very close to a Publix, Walgreens and a lot of interesting looking restaurants across the street. The pool area is nice with a hot tub.
We enjoyed having coffee on the balcony in the morning and drinks in the afternoon.
Never having been to Daytona Beach, I was amazed to see speed limit signs and cars driving on the beach.
The Sand Dollar was a very safe place to stay. The underground parking is a little intimidating at first but once you get use to it, it's ok. There's also the option of parking on the main level. Room key is needed to get back in the building and to get into the elevator room. All employees were very friendly and helpful.

Refreshing Getaway
After searching through a variety of vacation spots, I am thrilled we decided upon the Sand Dollar Condo. The Atlantic Ocean was a perfect setting to escape the frigid Iowa winters! We enjoyed long walks on the beach each morning and took in many of the local sights and attractions. If you choose this location, be sure to dine at the Boondocks Restaurant and the Cracked Egg. You won't be disappointed.
