Fantastic experience: This is the place you need to go when you need property of any kind
Negative experience: Beware of this company if your using them to show and rent your property, starting with the owner down they do not protect your interest when screening a tenate , they approved a man that had a 525 credit score and also had Terrible rental history and no current sufficient income , this lack of screening cost me approx 20,000 in damages to the unit , attorney fees to evict and also loss of 4 months rent , this company does not care about you or your investment they only care about collecting there money.
Negative experience: I stayed in several 1st. Floor oceanfront units in Towers #8 and #9. They were both filthy with disgusting looking furniture. I was told the cleaning people only do surface cleaning, not deep cleaning. The sliding glass doors were broke at both units and the bedroom rugs were filthy. The underside of the Murphy Bed had mold. Silverware was all greasy. The cleaning supervisor refused to make things right. $6200/month, we won’t be back.
Fantastic experience: This is our 5th year using Ponce Realty for condo rentals in Daytona Beach Shores. They are very professional and make sure that we are satisfied with our experience staying in one of their properties. We highly recommend using Ponce Realty because they represent both the owner and the renter “fairly”. Beth and Donna are wonderful to deal with.
Fantastic experience: I have been doing business with this company for several years, more specifically with Summer, for long-term rentals on the shores. The service I receive is always of high quality and consistent, so I wholeheartedly recommend their services for rental or property buying/selling needs.
Fantastic experience: Summer and Ponce Inlet Realty have handled our long term rental at the Towers of Ponce Inlet for many years. She is very easy to work with and always responds in a prompt manner to help us or the tenants. If any issues arise, Summer is always quick to recommend or find a solution. I would highly recommend Summer if you are looking to rent, buy/sell, etc in the Ponce Inlet area.
Fantastic experience: Have always been easy to work with.
Fantastic experience: We have been coming to Daytona Beach Shores for ten years and Ponce Inlet Realty makes it easy for us. Thanks for all you & your team do to make our rental outstanding.
Fantastic experience: Summer was excellent and would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: “ I've been renting through Summer for 5 years now, she's absolutely fantastic, always accommodating and very personable. she will always put your needs first , most genuine realtor I've ever used. Summer will definitely be my realtor when I decide to purchase and refer her to anyone who asks who to call to rent or buy. 5 out of 5 stars ” - Paul P.
Fantastic experience: We were very happy with the management of our property by Summer of Ponce Inlet Realty. Once we decided to sell our condo, Summer was helpful, professional and diligent. Very happy with her service.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend working with Summer. She has been a god send throughout this process. She made what is usually a highly stressful situation into a pleasant one. Thank you Ponce Inlet Realty and Summer!!!
Fantastic experience: This company is the best. Summer was informative, professional, and just simply cares for here clients. I highly recommend Ponce Inlet Realty and ask for Summer.
Fantastic experience: Summer is fantastic at Ponce Realty. She was very helpful for two condo purchases for us, and is very responsive when needed!
Positive experience: Argumentative when brought rental unit defects to their attention.
Fantastic experience: Very happy with my experience with Ponce Inlet Realty. Summer has been a great help to us with our rental property, and is fast to respond to any need.
Fantastic experience: Great place to find a place to live.
Negative experience: Three years ago our realtor was just as much of a scamming money grubbing person as you could get! Spent nearly over $100,000 leasing for a year with the option to buy. No one at the reality ever helped us and they were very rude and pretentious when you caught them out at the yacht clubs or partying with associates in public talking loudly how they screwed our rental over just a couple tables down using names and everything. I’ll never live in Ponce Inlet again because they’ve ruined everything about it.
Negative experience: Very unprofessional. This company took over the management of my property in 2021, I lived at the address 2 years prior and the prior company did an outstanding job. This company cant even seem to get a steady lawn service and a sober maintenance guy. Buyer beware. I have talked to several beach locals and they have said the same thing about the lack of service from this company. They have done so many things wrong since taking the property i cant even list them all. its bad! The rental manager, Summer is one of the worst I've ever seen, young and VERY inexperienced.
Fantastic experience: Summer and company did a great job while I was renting from Oceans one condominium. They were very fast and attentive, to all of my needs. Would trust them to handle anything related.
Fantastic experience: Great people to do business with. When we go back to Daytona we will continue to rent thru them. They take care of any problems you have with the condo and its done as timely as you can expect. Plus they dont rip you off with extra meaniless fees like VRBO does. Check them out, I dont think you will be disappointed.
Fantastic experience: We were looking for a nice pet friendly vacation rental in Florida. We discovered the Ponce Inlet Realty. We talked to Donna. She was very friendly and informative. But, unfortunately, no LARGE pets were allowed in the New Symerna and Ponce Inlet area. Actually, there were a couple but they were already rented for our time period. We will be working with them the next time that we are looking for a rental in that area. We highly recommend this place. But no dogs are allowed on the beach,although they do have pet friendly small beach areas.
Fantastic experience: Warm In Florida
Negative experience: Poorly maintained out dated rental homes at 4748 Riverglen that doesn’t look like the pictures. Rental Property company does not make sure b4 you arrive that home is maintained and tries to Blair it on the homeowner. Property manager Donna is rude and unprofessional and will interrupt you when you are speaking and hang up on you instead of allowing you to speak. If you must rent from this company make sure you take lots and lots of pictures when you get to the property, because they will allow the homeowner to lie about old previously damaged things so they can get the money from the damage insurance. This puts the renter character into question which is unexceptional to do to anyone. Rental property manger summer said she is works for the home owners not the the renters. Hmmmm well who protects their renters. With out the renters they would not have business. They must not care about repeat renters. Find someone who does
Fantastic experience: First time using Ponce Inlet Realty for my vacation rental to daytona. I highly recommend them. Check in and and check out were so easy. The place was everything described and more (twin towers unit 1207). Great communication and best service.
Negative experience: Prices where so high a person on social security could not afford first last security was six grand monthly 1800 to 2400 a month
Fantastic experience: Thank you so much Donna and The Ponce Inlet Realty team. I am a traveling nurse and was assigned here with little notice. After spinning my wheels for four days with no progress, I was about to give up and not accept the assignment due to lack of housing. In one day, Donna was able to help me secure a two month rental at a reasonable rate directly on the beach. I couldn't have done it without them! Thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: I am new to the Daytona Beach area and selected Angie Koper at Ponce Inlet Realty. I couldn't be more pleased with working with Angie. She was extremely knowledgeable, helpful in all stages of purchase, making sure everything was proceeding per plan, and closing. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Angie !! - Brian C
Positive experience: Used this company numerous times and have always been satisfied.
Fantastic experience: Nice people know what they are doing
Fantastic experience: We’ve been dealing with Ponce Inlet Realty as a vendor of theirs for the last 10 years and are great to work with. The office staff is phenomenal, always pleasant, easy to get in touch with, and really just go above and beyond for us, their owners, and their tenants. We surely appreciate the business relationship and recommend Ponce Inlet Realty for any real estate or property management needs!
Fantastic experience: This is THE PLACE to go for beach side rentals and expert real estate services. With decades of experience I would highly recommend Realtor Diane Filardo for any of your real estate needs
Positive experience: Friendly people great operations of business
Positive experience: Helpful staff.
Positive experience: Fair place for renting condos.
Negative experience: Wanted to look at homes and had 5 days yo do so. Received nothing from agent to see. We went away betty disappointed.
Fantastic experience: We just rented a two bedroom condo at Sea Fern condos this past week and LOVED it! the condo was updated and very clean. We even had a designated covered parking space which kept our vehicle much cooler. My family of four was extremely pleased with our stay. The beds were very comfortable and all three were memory foam. The balcony was amazing and has four rocking chairs. The flat screen TVs were great with a huge selection of channels and streaming options. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. Only one suggestion for the kitchen -- adding a blender would be helpful to make frozen drinks, slushies, etc. There were also a lot of beach chairs, boogie boards, sand buckets, etc. The showers were amazing with great water pressure. The only other suggestion I could add for the owner, would be to add a curtain over the first bedroom window. There are blinds for privacy, but it would be nice to be able to close a pair of curtains to block some of the light coming through. Other than those two suggestions, I can't think of anything else that would make this condo any better! We were in a perfect location. The beach was nice and never crowded. The pool was usually free with very few people using it. Plus we were just about 5 miles from all of the action at the Daytona strip, plenty of grocery options, and restaurants not too far away as well. We will definitely consider this condo again should we return to Daytona for a third year. Thank you!! :)
Fantastic experience: Have used Ponce Inlet Realty for the last 2 years to rent summer vacation condos and they are wonderful to work with. Beth, Donna, and Paula were so helpful this year as I had last minute conflicts and they still got us booked for 4th of July week! Very professional but also very friendly and down to earth people. We will be using them again for next year!
Negative experience: I inquired about a condo rental and the online response was VERY RUDE. I was surprised at the LACK of customer service. We will NEVER use the poor run company. VERY VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.
Fantastic experience: Great staff. Very helpful.
Fantastic experience: Always can count on them for the best condo rentals. Easy to work with and very accommodating.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff that worked with me very hard to find the right place for me at the right price. They're wonderful. Would rent from them anytime. I highly recommend them.
Positive experience: Clean office
Positive experience: We used this place to rent a condo in Ponce Inlet. We were not disappointed.
Fantastic experience: Paul Caron is hands down the absolute BEST!!!
