We needed a place to house a race team over the Daytona 500 weekend and this worked out great. The house had everything we needed and met our expectations. It was much more affordable than several hotel rooms. The host communicated we and was willing to help with anything we needed!
Hi Jeff the owner just bought the place and has updated over 100,000. worth of updates the only thing left is a new kitchen. If you would like a higher end rental, we have those to, but they range from 450 to 1200 per night. Next time please call us and I can send them to you to view. We were happy to see that the review was still a 4 star. He has all new furniture, flooring, new ac, new pool equipment, outside furniture, new heaters you name it he loaded it.
Give us a call next time please.
We had our parents coming down from Iowa so we wanted a place to stay that we all could be together but still have our own privacy. This house was perfect for that.
Thank you for choosing this property for your recent stay! It was our pleasure having you.
Anytime you are wanting to come back to this area we would love to host you again.
This house was so well stocked with kitchen equipment , linens, pool toys, etc. It was great to bring our dog. Great fenced in yard/pool area.
Dan, from the management company, was a doll. So helpful and responsive.
Thanks for a great stay.
Thank you Dianne, if you are ever back this way call me and I will offer you a repeat customer discount.
Come back and visit.

Joshua,
Why didn't you call or email us we would have sent the cleaners back.
We have a person that checks all the cleans and she said the floors were still drying when she checked it. We were wondering if the dog you brought could have been the culprit. It is super dry here and dogs can bring in dirt on their paws or people when you first checked in if you or all the kids walked over the grass not along the sidewalk and not wiping your feet at the front door mat.
The cleaners always do the floor and a nice job.
We hope you reconsider and try the rental again down the road.
The house on Mango Tree is perfect for a family vacation! We spent most of our time swimming in the private pool or lounging near it. The pool toys available at the house were a hit with the kids. We cooked, played board games, and relaxed. The beds were very comfortable, there were plenty of towels for everyone in our group (plus more to spare!), and the washing machine and brand new dryer were very convenient. The kitchen was ample for all of our cooking needs (and because of COVID, we made our own dinners every night). The grill out by the pool was excellent as well.
The beach was SO MUCH FUN! New Smyrna Beach is about 20-25 minutes drive from the house. We went to the Flagler entrance each time and paid the $20 fee to park directly on the beach. This meant no loading up a wagon and carrying all the kids' stuff from a far away parking spot- our car was about 20 feet away from us the whole day! People were tailgating on the beach with tents and grills and the works. Next time I'll definitely bring our tailgating gear and do the same. We were able to rent chairs and umbrellas from a company on the beach. The ocean was beautiful and just what our family needed.
Dan and Cindy were available and incredibly helpful. They were responsive when we needed them and gave us our privacy as well. They couldn't have been nicer!
We LOVED our vacation and feel like we found a gem at the Mango Tree house. You'll have a great time there, too!
Erica thanks so much. Come back and visit.
We would love to have you again. The house has beach chairs now games, umbrellas and all kinds of things for the beach coolers, boggie boards etc.

Edgewater Girl's Get Away
When I saw this listing online, I thought it would be perfect for a girl's beach trip. Upon arrival we saw that the house was in desperate need for a makeover. The kitchen cabinets did not shut, they were dirty, the countertop was chipped. The bathrooms were small and really outdated. The fourth bedroom was a garage and you felt like you were still in a garage. There was no closet, no storage for clothes, no mirror (in any of the bedrooms), the ac was exposed. Extra bedding was just shoved on a wire shelf. The pillows were hard. The laundry room was in the fourth bedroom and the washer was not even standard size. No laundry soap even though we were told to wash the towels. No extra toilet paper, paper towel, tissues were provided. The pool filter was not working. Called the property manager and left a message, no return call. There were so many bugs floating around the edge of the pool that we felt we could not use the pool. We did try to skim it ourselves, but the net had several large holes so what was picked up went right back into the pool. Two of the beach chairs were so rusty that one broke when we tried to open it. None of the floating pool toys were inflated. They were dirty. Holes in the screen room screen so bugs all the time. I was very embarrassed that I chose this house. The on-line photos were taken in such a way that all the flaws were hidden. I really don't think the owners, or the property manager take any pride in this property. Such a shame because the location is good as is the layout of the house. I have been booking with VRBO for four years and never was disappointed till now.
In responce to your review
This new owner has upgraded almost everything in the house and takes pride in his rental.
The cabinets were and are not dirty they have a pattern on the inside. We had all checked and the draws did open and close. The master bath was just renovated. You were 3 girls in a house that offers 2 bedrooms with 2 twin beds , a master bedroom with a king bed and if larger groups or family are wanting to sleep 4 extra folks the garage has been renovated into a large bedroom
professionally by the previous owner. Not sure why you needed to knock it bc you never needed to even use it. It has a door you could have left shut.There are many large families that have stayed and were very happy that they could sleep 4 extra. The washer and dryer are normal household size so not sure why you wrote it wasn't. The family before you checked out that morning and we had to get a screen company in bc the kids knocked 2 sections out. We try to get all fixed in a timely matter but had to wait on them.
Not everyone likes the same pillows, he bought all different types.
16 pillows were in the home you could have tried
another one? The cleaners
Leave a starter pack of tp
2 to each bath , detergent,
Dishwasher tabs, paper towel roll, soaps etc. It's a vacation rental not a hotel
So your responsible for buying whatever else is needed after you use that all up. Detergent was on the shelf in tabs. The house has southern oaks surrounding it so if you shut the pump off the filter will not clean the surface. That was shut off on the pool remote. It needed to stay in the on position. It keeps the pool clean until the pool company comes back weekly. The directions were right next to it.
There was another net near the pool equipment.
If you had called our office we could have sent someone over to change it out and skim it. Kids catch balls in them and rip them.
We always have 2 there
The owner was very disappointed that you are insinuating the pictures are hiding something. Not at all it's the same house.
He feels your review was totally unfair. You came in after we had a bad storm so the patio probably got gusts of wind with dust. He pays a professinal cleaning company to clean and they
do the porch area as well.
Thats why management was their to check the Wi-Fi That was knocked out even beachside with our summer storms. We emailed you the next day to ask if anything was needed we were told no.
We can only correct things if we are told there's a problem. We were disappointed you didn't call us so we could have helped make your stay more comfortable.
You had told me you all had a nice time when asked so I'm glad you all still had fun.
We stayed the first weekend of November, after hurricane Ian. Almost every house on the street had piles of garbage from hurricane damage, carpets, furniture, drywall, but this house did not have any garbage nor did it seem to have sustained any damage.
The house met our needs. We were four older men taking part in a match is New Smyrna Beach. We each had a bedroom. The kitchen was well stocked and the sectional sofa was huge, actually too big for the room, The living room, with the big sectional, had a smart big screen and each bedroom had a smart TV as well.
We did not use the backyard and pool.
The house is one or two miles from I-95 and one or two miles from a shopping center with a Publix grocery store.
I would stay there again if attending something in the area.
We had an amazing time staying at this house! We really didnât venture out too much, as it was so nice relaxing by the pool! Nice, quiet neighborhood! The house was equipped with all we needed, including pool toys! The water temp was perfect, no need to heat. We will definitely be back next year to stay again! Thank you!!
I really enjoyed my visit and the property manager was very responsive and helpful. The home is about 15 minutes from Flagler Avenue where you drive onto New Smyrna Beach. The location couldnât be beat! I LOVED the pool! I am sure I will be back for a visit, soon!
We enjoyed staying at this property. There were only a few complaints that we have.
1) Master Bathroom shower slowly drained.
2) only 2 of the TVs had the cords for the ROKU.
3) the brick connected to the railing for the hot tub is broken so it is very dangerous.
4) the pool cleaners came the first morning we were there and after they left it seemed like the pool was really hot! (Controller said 95 degrees).
Hi glad to hear you had a nice time. I wish you had called us we would have had maintenance correct all those problems. The other TVs had Roku they are smart TV's. Try us again down the road and we will offer you a nice discount as a repeat customer. :0)
This is a great location out of the way in a fairly quite neighborhood (minus a few trains and fire alarms going off at 5am). The owners are very attentive and easy to communicate with. The location has a nice pool and spa to spend some refreshing lazy days. Also very close to the national sea shore and great local restaurants. Had a great experience overall.
Property was as described online. The pool and hot tub were excellent! The beds could definitely be better, but overall a great vacation home. We enjoyed our stay very much.
There were little things hat broke on us but house was spacious enough for the 9 of us to spread out and we all loved the giant pool. Seemed a little strange there wasn't a privacy fence or more shrubbery to block view from the road.
Hi Karen,
Thanks for the review. The door handle just needed the screw tightened. We would have fixed if we knew that happened while you were here. A phone call away. The owner just started planting palm trees and Areca palms it should be private within the month.
Glad to hear you and the kids had fun
