There are several types of balconies at Daytona Beach Resort. If you are going to rent a condo from the owner — it is best to understand what you are getting.
The resort was updated in 3 different phases. this does have an effect on the balconies and age of furnsihings.
Phase 1 was the 5 story main building — shown below with the purple – yellow and red balconies, this is the south end of the building – closest entrance would be the main entrance. ( Completed 2002 – 2005)
Phase 2 was the 7 – 14th story of the 14 story tower with the red – blue and green balconies. (Completed 2006)
Phase 3 was the orange balconies (Completed 2007)
OK — this is kinda rough — OK — really rough, but it is an illustration !!!!
Red Balconies:: Large and private. and there are a very, very limited number of condos with this type of balcony. 710-713-810-813-910-913-1010-1013-1110-1113-1210-1213 are all in the tower. Here are pictures these are approx 10 x 13 ft, which is about equivalent to a small bedroom…
I am standing by the chairs with the above pic…
This condo has chairs and small table, perfect location for coffee with the sunrise, very large, great view of ocean — southern get full sun most of the day, northern gets the afternoon shade.
You can see the balcony size from the ground — and the wall of windows that is the nice thing about the corner condos in the tower.
The Red Balconies on the bottom left — are pictures down below — see the space but not really much privacy as this is your entrance AND you are next to the pool deck… these are about 10 x 8 and have the pavers and walkout to pool.
The view from these rooms — looks out on the pool deck —
Blue balconies :: These are private and oceanfront. Balcony size is about 13 ft x 30 inches. We can fit 2 chairs out there..not much more.
Orange Balconies::
These are the same as the Blue Balconies — size is 13 ft x 3 ft ( 36 inches)
so you will have a bit more room for the knees. Walls on both sides make these private — very private….
Unfortunately, we were uable to get into a room to get pics…of the balcony —
Expect this……..as the orange are all oceanfront.
Green Balconies:: These are all private and oceanview. These are standing room only. Some folks have placed stools out for use.
So the view from here is quite spectacular too –these are oceanview and the closer your room is to the ocean — the better the view — this is 2 from the ocean…….
These pictures were taken on the balcony
From the room ….
This would be your view from your room from this location.
Purple Balconies:: These are not really balcnoies.. this is a walk way. The 4th & 5th floor in the 5 story bldg has a walkway with chairs-tables. Not very private……but these condos were remodeled without an additional entrance — so the entrance is on the walkway and the walkway is where your chairs are…..
Yellow Balconies::
The yellow balconies are on the 2nd and 3rd floors in the 5 story building. These rooms had the same walkway as above — but these condos have a seperate entrance. On the remodel they enclosed with additional railings. These are not private — but they are spacious. You probably have about a 7 x 13 area for yourself.
You can see the railing from this vantage point.
This oner might be a tad better…
As you can see, there is a huge variety of balconies — depending upon the room you get. If you are planning on heading to Daytona to stay at the Conference Center and have further balcony questions…feel free to ask. !!!!

Your garden looks lolvey and I am sure a lot of work went into growing it. Our garden was quite productive last year, but this year we just managed to grow spinach and chard, lots of herbs, strawberries and some raspberries. Here in the Southwest it has been unbearably hot and the UV exceptionally high. Plants, as well as humans, don’t always thrive in that kind of setting.Your photography is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden with all of us
