You want a private authentic beach house at the sand, the ocean steps away? Your real beach house awaits!
At the sand is better than near the sand. and private is better than crowded. Don't be fooled: "walking distance to the beach" listings are not beach houses. Even a half-block walk lugging your beach stuff in the Florida sun is suffering. And a beachfront condo means you're sharing space with strangers. Stay at your private beach house instead!
Hear waves, enjoy sunrise/sunset beach strolls steps away, or set off to nearby, nature, social, shopping or theme park adventures.
Captain Henry's Beach House: Set in a private beachfront enclave of eclectic beach homes, this salty-meets-comfy fully private retreat is for those who want an authentic beach experience—relaxed, uncrowded, affordable, at the sand. This beach house is a perfect blend of rustic, salty, and comfy.
This is a 3 bedroom 1&1/2 bath house, with a large front lounge area, a back yard with a fantastic outdoor shower, an indoor spacious Florida Room (aka "the grotto") with comfy couches and dining table, and an open kitchen and living room area.
Live like a local at this ultimate Florida getaway.

Beachside Ormond stay
Angie is a great host,very responsive ( my arrival coincided with an unusual deep freeze) and any issues related to that were handled asap. The classic Florida cottage is steps from a lovely beach . The cottage is very spacious- it was actually a bit larger in person than in pictures. It’s walking distance to groceries and coffee etc which is very convenient ( main road is v busy there though) I would definitely stay here again.
