Spring break
The condo was great. Other than when we got there the cleaners hadn’t come but the host was very responsive and got the cleaners out as soon as possible. And there was a little bit of a mildew smell.

We spent Thanksgiving week in this beach condo. Found it to be very satisfactory in every way. Particularly liked having upstairs bedrooms. The location was perfect for our needs with restaurants and Publix nearby.

Nascar Weekend
We came to Daytona for a Nascar race and found this perfect condo for our family. We decided to make it an extended weekend getaway and this was the best part! The condo was well stocked with Linen and dishes, was very clean, and had a great location! Will definitely come back here as we go to Nascar a couple times a year. Thanks for a great stay!

Exceeded Expectations
The Salty Hippo was a well appointed and very clean, even duvets were washed between guests. We throughly enjoyed our stay and will be back. Do bring your own beach chairs. The complex/ pool area was also well maintained and very nice. Check in time is actually 4:00pm rather than 3:00pm, which was listed on VRBO.

Enjoyable two week stay
Salty Hippo is a great location. The property is right on the ocean with private beach access. It was wonderful to have Cape Canaveral National Seashore a few miles down the road with its beautiful nature and a short drive in the other direction for shops and restaurants. The place is clean, quiet, and comfortable. Absolutely perfect! We would stay here again.

Served our needs
We were in New Smyrna Beach celebrating Thanksgiving week with extended family who were also staying in NSB. This condo was quite adequate for housing part of our family. The only complaint I have is that the pool and beach access were closed while we were there due to extensive landscaping work being done. This was not disclosed at any point of the booking or check in process, we discovered this inconvenience after arrival. It was not a big problem for us since we had options with other family accommodations for both pool and beach access, but it should have been disclosed.

Easy and Comfortable Condo
Pros: This condo was as advertised - and very clean. It was so easy to get to the pool and the beach. It is ideal if you want to be right on the water. The manager was very responsive and pleasant. It was nice that it was two floors and had two showers. The entire condo was quiet and the neighbors were friendly.
Cons: The back patio door would not lock, but we communicated this to the manager so we assume it will be fixed for anyone staying there in the future. You also can't really walk anywhere but the businesses are only a couple miles away so it isn't a huge issue.
Overall, we had a great experience!
