This is one of two oceanfront ground floor condos at The Beachdrifter which open to a lawn, pool, pergola and, of course, the beach, which is just over the dunes. We love our condos (VRBO # 1899645 and # 1125777) here because they are on the beach and we don't need to go up and down stairs or wait for a cramped, hot elevator. Our parking spots are closest to the doors and these condos open to the lawn.

Please note: to protect the community from damaging hurricanes, the city of Jacksonville Beach has built higher dunes, which still allow you to hear the crashing surf and see some ocean, but we can no longer see the waves break on the beach. We still love the convenience of parking next to the door (the closest spot) and walking right into the condo.

Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a king bed, two twins, and a full sofa sleeper, and everything you need for a vacation at the beach. We keep sand castle gear, beach chairs, beach towels, a sun umbrella, etc. And we can provide a pack-and-play upon request for your little ones.

We also have fast wi-fi, streaming TVs, an Apple computer with 27-inch display, and more.

We accept dogs on a case-by-case basis for $29 per pet per night. And we have a short pet agreement for you to sign. Please note that the building does not allow pets to enter the common lawn and pool area and our building recently enacted a 50-pound size limit on dogs.

Our condo is located in the heart of Jacksonville Beach, one of Florida’s most vibrant beach towns. Whether you plan to bring your board and hit the waves, enjoy local bars and dining, catch some live music, quiet strolls along the beach or simply enjoy breathtaking sunrises from your sofa or patio, you have every option at your fingertips.

The condo is conveniently located within walking distance of all of the top local attractions and is just a couple of miles from popular Neptune and Atlantic beaches.

Here are some additional features you will find at the Orange You Happy Condo:

· Living room with floor to ceiling windows and sliding glass door leading to our lawn, the pool and of course the music of crashing waves
· Large master suite with walk-through closet and French doors to the living room
· Eat-in kitchen with views and well-equipped with everything you need to prepare any type of meal at home
· Dishwasher, microwave oven and garbage disposal
· Washer and dryer
· New TVs in living room & bedrooms - each with streaming TV (YouTube TV subscription provided for live TV)
· High speed Wi-Fi with 27-inch display and Apple computer
· NEST thermostat and smoke (& Carbon monoxide) detector
· Keyless entry (no keys to lose!)
· Beach chairs and towels for you to use during your stay
· Beach gear like umbrellas, shelters, sand castle kit, etc
· Patio with Adirondack chairs and community back yard, rarely used by other guests
· Community oceanfront pool
· Dedicated parking spot, located right outside the front door- easy loading in and out!
· Baby equipment (Pack and Play and infant booster seat) available upon request for small guests and/or visiting grandchildren

We keep all of our items at our condo so your packing and traveling is easier.

The Orange You Happy Condo is the perfect seaside retreat, offering both rest and relaxation and plenty of dining options and nightlife, right on your doorstep. It’s the perfect fit for anyone looking to enjoy a magical oceanfront sunrise while sipping coffee on the patio. Or to read a good book by the pool. Or take long strolls on the beach. Enjoy the surf and sand. A family holiday. Romantic getaway. A visit with relatives who live nearby. Or even a local escape for those who live in nearby towns.

In addition, we are located near the following attractions:
· Jax Beach Pier = ½ mile
· Mayo Clinic = 5 miles or 10-15 minutes
· TPC Sawgrass Golf Course = 8 miles or 22 minutes
· Everbank Field Stadium/Downtown Jax = 17 miles or 30 minutes
· Jacksonville International Airport = 27 miles or 37 minutes
· St. Augustine = 32 miles or 1 hour
· Disney World = 160 miles or 2.5 hours

We are not only the property managers, but we are the owners. The Orange You Happy Condo is a special place to our family where we are creating many happy lifelong memories. We look forward to sharing it with you and providing you with an exceptional experience. And we hope to host you again and again, and get to know you. We want you to love it here as much as we do! Looking forward to hearing from you!

    This condo was perfect for our stay on the beach as a family of 5. Everything was very clean. Being on the first floor was amazing, especially with kids. Having a kitchen and washer and dryer was life changing! They have everything you need and more! The owners were quick to respond to questions. We were worried we would run out of hot water but never even got close with 5 of us showering. There were plenty of towels. The pull out sofa is not an actual mattress but it was perfect for a teenager. The twin beds and king beds were very comfortable. The pool is a great extra, along with the outside shower to rinse off! There is a publix a few minutes away for grocery shopping, along with a fee beachy shops. The actual beach is clean with lifeguards. Busiest on the weekends of course but nice and quiet during the week. We will definitely be back next summer!

    We rented two side-by-side first-floor condos - Happy Pineapple and Orange You Happy - from the same owner, for our extended family vacation with 8 adults. We had a wonderful time! The condos worked out even better than we expected.The location was great - right beside the pool, and only steps from the beach - and it was perfect that we could bring our dogs with us.We grilled out in front of the condo (there is a small charcoal grill in Happy Pineapple, but we brought our own small weber gas grill and foldable table) and it was so fun to gather around outside to visit and snack while we grilled. I'm not sure that any other place would have worked out as well for us. We will definitely be back!

    Condo was conveniently located near the beach and near restaurants and other areas of interest in both Jax and Neptune beaches! We loved having the pool just outside our back door! Condo was well stocked and was very clean! Beds were comfortable! No complaints!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo. The location was excellent! The condo was well-appointed with everything we could possibly need. The host and hostess were most accommodating. Our grandchildren loved the pool being right outside our door. We look forward to returning soon!

    Our family of four had a great stay at the condo. The owners went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed for our vacation and made check in / check out very simple. The condo was very well equipped and very clean. On top of that, the location is perfect, just steps from the beach and centrally located with respect to all types of dinning options and fun activities. We will definitely stay here again!

    Stayed for five days to visit elementary school friends ( now 74 years young). Love the condo and location to the beach. Rode our bikes around town which was fun with little traffic. The garbage disposal sprang a leak while we were there owners called a plumber right away was very responsive. Would rent again.

    Our stay at Orange You Happy Condo was fantastic! The hosts were above accomodating. The condo had every luxury needed and beyond. Our family was very comfortable and enjoyed the close access to the beach and pool. Being on the ground level and having every necessity provided made our beach days fun, relaxing and memorable. For all these reasons, we highly recommend Orange You Happy Condo and we look forward to staying next year.

    No steps is HUGE when you are carrying beach gear, have children or walking issues. We have a little swimmer and being able to open the patio door then watch them walk a few steps to the pool was WONDERFUL! I would rather see a peak of water through the beautiful dunes than take stairs. Great neighborhood, clean beach and pier is nearby. We would stay again.

    This was our first family vacation with our one year old so I wanted something that would be able to accommodate him. This property was perfect! It’s within walking distance to the beach, the condo parking is right in front of the entrance and being on the ground floor by the pool and grassy area for him to play was exactly what we needed! The condo itself is nice and clean with large smart TVs that have all your streaming apps. They have a fully loaded kitchen with all the necessities and they also have everything you need for the beach and pool! This included nice, thick beach towels, beach chairs, a tent, beach umbrella, pool toys and beach toys! There is a washer and dryer and they have laundry pods and dishwasher pods for the dishwasher, which was also very nice to have. This condo is pet friendly but you wouldn’t know by looking at it because there are no remnants of dogs in there. This was the perfect condo for our vacay but one of the greatest experiences was the hospitality the owners extended. They were able to accommodate an early check in and late check out. They were very quick in their responses and so helpful with any questions I had. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Jacksonville!
