Direct Oceanfront - Charming 1940s Beach Cottage - 4BR/3BA - Step To The Beach

This is a spectacular property providing you with your own private beach! Well designed interior that’s beautiful and comfortable! Extra beach toys, bikes available with the home.This is our second stay at Tatum House because it’s such a lovely property and Marla is an excellent host.

Beautiful property so close to the beach!Beds are very comfortable, and the cottage is so charming. The kitchen is very small but very well stocked. There are a few maintenance items and repairs that need attention to make it a 5-star stay.

Absolutely gorgeous property with private patio and beach access. Even nicer than the photos. The property manager was very helpful and accessible the whole week. Smyrna is a lovely town w great dining and fun things to do. We will be back

This is a gem of a place. The host is very responsive and proactive. The property is lovely, right on the beach - great place to see a nighttime rocket launch from Cape Canaveral. Four bedrooms that fit seven of us easily. Good kitchen and living room area. Plenty of parking. Overall a great experience.

Perfect weekend getaway. House was all that and more. Couldn’t have been happier. We will rent it again!!

We adored staying at the Tatum House Cottage! It exceeded our expectations! It felt like home the minute we entered the front door and were greeted by the most charming coastal cottage decor and a lemon cake with our name on it. It is obvious the owners take great care of this home. We had 3 young adult sons staying with us, each having their own bedroom. The beach is perfect. Soft sand, No garbage or seaweed or other mysterious things (at least while we were there). The ocean was perfect for a swim from morning until night. The town was charming, with many delicious restaurants including the Breakers, Prima, and Outrigger- all yummy with great service. We hope to return again!

This is the perfect cottage by the sea! Each room is decorated in a cozy, coastal vibe, and drenched in light from large windows that frame a stunning view of the ocean. It was such a pretty place to settle in for some much needed time away! There are so many things to love— the fluffy beds, the architectural authenticity, the details celebrating New Smyrna’s history, and how thoughtfully appointed the house is, from its kitchen to its shed full of beach items. All this, and just steps away from the ocean!

We held our annual reunion with friends with some dating back to elementary school. Everyone loved it so much, we are considering having it here every year. The home is beautiful, well stocked and in a perfect location. I wish that I could give it 6 Stars! We will be back.

Unforgettable Beach House Stay for a 90th Birthday Celebration!We recently stayed at this beautiful beach house to celebrate a very special occasion—our loved one’s 90th birthday—and it was truly unforgettable! The home was spacious, spotless, and had everything we needed to make the weekend comfortable and memorable for our entire family.The location was absolutely perfect—just steps from the beach with stunning ocean views. We enjoyed peaceful mornings with coffee on the deck, afternoons in the sun and sand, and cozy evenings together in the warm, welcoming living space.The host, Marla was incredibly kind and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed and even offering great local tips. You can tell this home is well cared for and loved.This beach house was the perfect setting for a multigenerational family getaway, and it gave us lasting memories we’ll cherish forever. Highly, highly recommend it for any special occasion or relaxing retreat by the sea!

The house and location were both perfect. The host was simply one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met.

Overall, great hosts. We had everything we needed! I wish I would have known cars parked on the beach but I guess I should have just known the area I was staying in. Other than that, the house is really nice - the owners are even nicer! So if you LOVE New Smyrna Beach - this is your spot. Also, house got really cold at night which I totally loved! Thanks again

This place is perfect. We enjoyed ourselves. Would definitely go back. This is a charming home right on the beach.

The views and access to the beach alone make this property a must stay. The inside was clean and beautifully decorated. Large parking area and many conveniences including a pack and play and high chair for baby! We enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning and watching the little turtles come out from the dunes!

Beautiful property, cute and clean home. Very good communication from host!

Very easy accommodation and relaxing stay

Charming, well-kept oceanfront home. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just fall out the front door to a fabulous beach on the Atlantic. Thanks for the use of the bikes. Highly recommend!

This is our 2nd time to stay at the Tatum House. We LOVE that precious house. So cozy and comfortable. We will be back!

Being on the beach was such a treat for my family who all live up North. We had long daily walks and several went surfing in the ocean. The house is very close to Flagler where all the shops, restaurants, and bars are located. The cottage is very well equipped in the kitchen and there are many towels for the bathrooms and the beach. The beds are inviting with their comforters and pillows. We loved every aspect of the cottage and had a wonderful stay.

Had a wonderful stay at this property. Check in was a breeze. The back porch is well appointed with plenty of seating and direct access to the beach. There is a large shed on property with an assortment of beach items - we used the bikes to ride to the French Bakery in the morning. All furnishings were as described. The location, ample parking and views cannot be beat! Owner was responsive and baked a lemon Bundt cake which was waiting for us upon our arrival - nice touch! Overall, excellent property and would definitely recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Tatum House! The property manager was very accessible and I loved all of the extras! (bikes, beach chairs, towels, etc). The house itself was roomy enough for our group of eight. We all enjoyed the back porch/patio area, esp. the rocking chairs. 10/10 would stay here again!
