New
Smyrna Beach is a beautiful city that is nestled
among the moss-draped trees along the shores of the
picturesque Indian River in Volusia County. It’s located
on the central east coast of Florida, completely
surrounded by bodies of water; the Atlantic Ocean to the
east, the Intracoastal Waterway to the west and Mosquito
Lagoon in between the two.
New Smyrna
Beach is definitely a laid-back coastal community; free
of the crowds and noise that plague other Florida
beaches. With a very rich history, New Smyrna Beach has
the distinction of being the site of the largest single
attempt at Colonial settlement in the U.S. Dr. Andrew
Turnbull, a Scottish physician and entrepreneur,
established a colony along the west bank of the Indian
River in 1768.
Today, the
town of New Smyrna Beach is home to approximately 21,000
permanent residents who welcome visitors to their island
town. It’s a small town full of southern charm and home
to a vibrant historic downtown and beachside shopping
boutique, a multitude of parks and outdoor recreation
possibilities. Just a short drive away, you'll find
other Florida attractions such as Daytona Beach, Disney
World and the Kennedy Space Center.
Combine
visits to the theme parks with lazy days on the beach.
Watch and feel the thrill of a Space shuttle launch
right from our ocean front decks. At our New Smyrna
Beach House you will be close to it all yet far enough
away to enjoy the quiet seclusion of quaint, picturesque
New Smyrna Beach.
Only steps
away from the ocean, you can enjoy a morning stroll
along our white sand beach. Spend time swimming, surfing
fishing or build sandcastles as you relax in the sun. |
