My husband and I come to this little beach cottage every year. This was our 4th year and the view never gets old! This cottage is perfect for the 2 of us and you can’t beat the location! Just steps to the sand! We love Flagler beach!

Charming, rustic cottage on beachfront.

This charming little cottage was the perfect getaway for a couple of senior citizens wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of crowds. The private beach was unbelievable, no crowds, just an occasional passersby. Can’t wait to make another trip. Great restaurants just up the road.

Quirky little beach villa

A small but clean place. Managers were very attentive to our needs. Good food about five minutes south. Outfitted with microwave, fridge, 2 showers, 2 queen beds, and sleeper sofa. I’d stay there again.

A hidden gem

My husband and myself have been coming to this property for the past three years. It is a simple little beach cottage that we fell in love with. We love the view and the beach town of Flagler. There is absolutely nothing negative to say about this place or Flagler Beach itself. We will be returning next year as well!!

quarter deck review

My Husband and I loved our stay at the Quarter Deck so much we are already planning to come back next year!! The house is just the right size for the two of us and the beach is quiet. We saw a whale and dolphins, the view of the sunrises are beautiful and we were able to see a couple space launches while we were there too. The location is great, not too busy but close enough to everything from sightseeing, shopping and restaurants. We ate at several of the local restaurants from Ormand Beach to St. Augustine and loved them all. Highlight of our stay was the royal dolphin swim at Marineland. What a fun experience!! Can't wait to come back and explore more of the Flagler Beach area, and enjoy that beautiful oceanside beach!
