About this property

"Turtle Haven" Direct Ocean Front 5th floor Condo on Cinnamon Beach. Unit 553

Summary:

At “Turtle Haven” Relax on the balcony and experience the calming sounds of the waves while watching the dolphins play and the pelicans fly so close you can almost reach out and touch them. And you might even be able to see the turtles hatch and make their way down to the sea! A sweeping ocean-front experience, the balcony offers a large space with plenty of room for everyone, offering perfect relaxation for watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee or the moon rise with your favorite glass of wine.



Inside, you’ll find a comfy environment for chilling out to watch your favorite cable TV program on the flat screen HDTV or enjoy your favorite DVD. You’ll find a complete cable package as well as high-speed wireless Internet access. The unit has an open-plan living and dining area, with tiled floors and carpeted bedrooms.



For snacks, meals or entertaining, the fully equipped kitchen is a delight to use and provides granite countertops, all of the appliances and necessary utensils to create your own gourmet meals. Choose to enjoy your meals and snacks in the dining area, seated around the dining table, or out on the balcony so you can enjoy the views while enjoying your meals.



We hope you’ll explore your new surroundings and find them to be even better than the photos, with designer touches throughout to make you feel comfortable and at home. From floor to furnishings to full-height ceilings, the interiors are as wonderful as the views. Great for long-term stays!



The unit sleeps 6 guests offering a choice of a king bed, queen bed and two twin beds in the three bedrooms. Each bedroom has its own HDTV. In the master suite, you'll find modern wood furniture and rich linens to keep stress and worry a world away. The en suite bathroom and its garden soaking tub offer additional relaxation. You’ll find lots of extras for organizing your belongings with additional towel rings and hooks as well as pull-out shelving under the cabinets. The front bedrooms are cozy and inviting and the second bathroom in the front hall also has extra towel racks, shelves and hooks for added convenience during your stay.



Cinnamon Beach at Ocean Hammock Beach Resort rentals include access to a large ocean front heated pool and spa, a second heated pool with a gradual walk-in slope for kids and families, spa, a splash zone for kids, a fitness center, an adult game room with pool table, a kids’ game room with foosball table and video games, seasonal grille, and picturesque walking and jogging trails.



You will be provided with a Welcome Guide that contains necessary information for your stay as well as information and menus for our favorite local places. In addition, you will find activities including golf and shopping in Palm Coast, and lots of interesting things to do in both Historical St Augustine and St Augustine Beach.



Finally, you'll be dealing directly Sue and Steve Harrison of SHS Realty Services, P.A. We also personally own two condos in Cinnamon Beach and have successfully rented these over the past six years. One of those units is 523 in the same building, so if you need multiple units, we can accommodate you. Just contact Sue for any more information. We'd be happy to speak with you and help you to find the perfect vacation unit!



Please Note: The total tax rate for this rental is 12%, which consists of FL State Sales Tax of 7% and a separate 5% Tourism Tax paid to Flagler County under LBTR# 29743.



For parties needing more than one condo check out our other Cinnamon Beach units, apartments 723, 742, 743, 764 and 765. All direct ocean front condominiums.



Guest Access:

This is a gated community. Gate passes and door code will be sent to you within a week to 10 days prior to your arrival date.



The Neighborhood:

Cinnamon Beach is an unspoiled, picturesque stretch of the Atlantic coastline nestled between Historic Saint Augustine to the north and Daytona Beach to the south. Cinnamon Beach is known for its unique cinnamon colored sand, a natural result of the ocean waves lapping against the offshore coquina reef. Miles of uncrowded beach offer a low-key and laid-back environment to just sit and enjoy the relaxing beach life. 





There are plenty of local restaurants for dinning and entertainment. Visit the Captain’s BBQ at Bings Landing on the intercoastal water way, or the many shops and restaurants in the European Village. For a unique experience try the Funky Pelican right on the ocean in Flagler Beach just 15 minutes away. If you are looking for adventure, then a day trip into historic Saint Augustine is a must. Walk along St. George street and experience the eclectic collection of shops, restaurants, and countless entertainment options.

We loved the condo, it was beautiful! Spacious accommodations and clean. The view of the ocean and access to the beach was great! The pool was lovely. And the grill served delicious food. We visited Flagler which was fun, Flagler Fish Co was delicious. We took the trolley tour in St Augustine. A great trip, lots of memories made.

Enjoyable family spring break

The condo was beautiful and well supplied. The ocean view was great. It was relaxing, we used the pool (there were actually 2) 2 of the 3 days and the game room on the third when it was rainy. It seemed to be a very nice, pleasant and safe community.

Great Stay

Great stay overall. Condo was very nice and well equipped. The view was great and the porch was amazing. Pools were nice. The only negative we would say is the huge rocks on the beach with the kids wanting to swim but other than that a great place. Sue was great to deal with and very prompt on getting back to us. Would definitely recommend this place.

Relaxing , Oceanview

We enjoyed the peaceful, relaxing location. We loved that the ocean could be seen from our condo. The owner was really nice and helpful. The condo was exactly as the pictures. There were ample dishes and cookware. There was a book of information that had menus from local restaurants. If you are looking for a quiet getaway that is not commercial or congested, this is the place. It was an easy drive to sightseeing adventures and restaurants.

Beautiful Condo

The whole area is gorgeous and well maintained. This condo is lovely. The view of the ocean is so nice. There is plenty of room for our family of five, including 3 young adults. The beach was nice but we weren’t too crazy about the rocks on the shoreline. Other kids seemed to love them as they explored the tide pools among the rocks. Publix was close by for groceries. We loved Mezaluna; their pizza and food is the best!

Thanks so much, Fran. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and loved the condo. Sorry about the rocks. They are part of the coquina reef on which we are built. Every year is different and this year a good part of the reef was uncovered by the 2 tropical storms we had last October and November. Some summers there aren't any rocks exposed. Hope you'll come back to see that next year. We'd love to have you again!

Beautiful Condo and views

Lots of great dolphin watching, and fun family beach activity. Unfortunately this condo and home community has rules posted everywhere and seem somewhat unnecessary; along with restricted pool times, broken hot tub and lots of noisy construction going on which we would of liked to been more informed of in advance.
Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Aug 2022
Kevin, We are glad that you enjoyed the condo. And I apologize for the construction and the situation with the pools/spas. We had been informed that these would be taken care of before your arrival, but due to delays in supplies for the repairs, that obviously didn't happen. Unfortunately, we have absolutely no control over the Rec Center situations and we are as frustrated as you are with it. Hopefully, it will be resolved very soon!
