Coastal charm meets urban convenience in Buena Vista Shores
Waterway East is situated in the picturesque Buena Vista Shores neighborhood, a community that captures the essence of Florida's coastal lifestyle. This borderline island-like area, nestled between the waterways of Indian River North, offers residents a unique blend of natural beauty and urban amenities.
The neighborhood's proximity to water is one of its defining features. Buena Vista Park, just a short walk away, boasts two piers extending up to 250 feet, providing excellent fishing opportunities from sunrise to sunset. The park also features a playground and picnic areas, perfect for family outings. Water enthusiasts can take advantage of the nearby New Smyrna Marina or join the New Smyrna Freedom Boat Club for easy access to boating adventures on the Indian River, home to over 685 fish species.
For those seeking beach time, the Atlantic Ocean is merely a mile away. Residents can easily access Central Beach via Flagler Avenue, a popular thoroughfare lined with boutique shops, restaurants, and vibrant nightlife. The monthly Wine Walk on Flagler Avenue has become a beloved community event, showcasing the area's social and cultural offerings.
Dining options in the vicinity cater to various tastes. The Mermaid Cafe at Riverview, just a 15-minute walk away, offers casual dining with excellent ratings. For breakfast enthusiasts, Ruthy's Kozy Kitchen, about a mile and a half drive, serves up traditional American comfort foods with a Southern twist. C's Waffles-Beachside, roughly 4 miles away, is another popular spot for morning fare.
Shopping needs are well-served by nearby options. Perrine's Produce, about a 2-mile drive, stocks a variety of fresh produce and prepared foods. For more extensive grocery runs, Publix Super Market at Indian River Village Shopping Center is also approximately 2 miles away. The New Smyrna Beach Regional Center, about a 3-mile drive, offers additional shopping and dining options.

New Smyrna Beach Middle School and New Smyrna Beach High School are both about 3 miles away, providing quality education options for older students.
Car-centric location with easy access to major routes
Transportation in the Buena Vista Shores area primarily revolves around personal vehicles, reflecting the car-dependent nature of many Florida coastal communities. Waterway East's location provides convenient access to major routes, facilitating easy travel throughout New Smyrna Beach and beyond.
The North Causeway, which bisects the neighborhood, serves as a primary artery for local transportation. Heading west, it connects to U.S. Route 1, a major north-south highway that runs along the East Coast. Eastward, the Causeway becomes Flagler Avenue, leading directly to the beach and oceanfront attractions.
For those who prefer public transportation, options are limited but available. The nearest bus stop, Julia Sams, is approximately a mile away, or about a 20-minute walk. While not immediately convenient, it does provide a connection to the wider public transit network.
Cycling enthusiasts will find the area moderately accommodating. With a Bike Score of 52, the neighborhood offers some bike infrastructure, making it possible to accomplish some errands by bicycle. The flat terrain of Florida's coast is generally favorable for cycling, though dedicated bike lanes may be limited in some areas.
For air travel, residents have access to two regional airports. Daytona Beach International Airport is about a 30-minute drive away, offering domestic flights and connections to major hubs. For a wider range of flight options, Orlando Sanford International Airport is approximately 50 minutes by car.
The car-centric nature of the area is reflected in Waterway East's amenities. The condominium complex offers covered assigned parking for residents, ensuring protection for vehicles from Florida's intense sun and occasional storms. This feature, combined with the keyless entry system for units, provides a seamless transition from car to home.
While the area may not be ideal for those seeking a highly walkable or transit-oriented lifestyle, it offers the independence and flexibility that many Florida residents prefer. The easy access to major routes allows for quick trips to nearby attractions, shopping centers, and beaches, embodying the freedom and convenience that characterize coastal living in New Smyrna Beach.
