Acqua at Daytona Beach

About Acqua at Daytona Beach

Acqua is a 76-unit low-rise condo from 1970 on the west side of the beachside peninsula, right on the Halifax River. Units in the back look over the river and the boat traffic, and many have a balcony facing the sunset.

Building amenities

Amenities are simple. There's a grassy picnic area on the river with grills and tables, a spot to launch a kayak or paddleboard with storage along the fence, a dog area and a shared laundry room. Each unit has an assigned parking space.

Location

The complex sits between Seabreeze Boulevard and Main Street. The beach, the Bandshell, the boardwalk and the Ocean Center are within walking distance, along with the restaurants and bars of the Seabreeze and Main Street areas. Downtown Daytona is just across the bridge.

Units are two-bedroom condos of about 788 to 888 square feet. Right now 3 units are for sale, asking from $100,000 to $145,000, with a median of $140,000. River-facing and end units, and how much a unit has been updated, make most of the difference in price.

Fees, rules and rentals

The monthly fee is about $510. It usually covers building insurance, water, sewer, trash and exterior upkeep. Fees change over time, so check the current amount and what it covers on each listing.

Ask the association about pet and rental rules before you buy. For any condo building three stories or taller, Florida law requires milestone inspections and structural reserve studies, so ask for the latest reports and any planned special assessments.
