Lovely and clean loved the outdoor couch and deck rope swings. Kitchen was well stocked with spices and coffee appreciated the laundry and bathroom soaps. Great time had by all!
House was beautiful. Very well appointed, clean and in a great location. We kayaked, rode bikes , went to the beach, walked down to restaurants and had an amazing time just chilling by the pool and dock. Loved this place!!!
Beautiful home in a convenient location! Very accommodating amenities for all ages- The kids enjoyed the Wii and games in the garage and the adults enjoyed visiting on the dock and finding dolphins and manatees while kayaking! Pool and hot tub were a relaxing oasis! Hostess was amazing-wonderful communication and flexibility to meet our needs throughout our stay. If you are looking for a cocoa beach get away or need a place before/after porting for a cruise, I would highly recommend the River Isle Retreat!
My family of 5 had a fantastic time. Everything was as advertised. The most exciting experience was having a dolphin swim right up to the dock! We saw a dolphin multiple days, including while kayaking. The pool was perfect and my kids thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. The kitchen had everything we needed. We took advantage of the bikes and rode to the beach. We borrowed fishing poles and did a little dockside fishing. Neighborhood was quiet and the location was a perfect walk to the beach and local restaurants. My only wish was for a better grill but no other concerns. The property owners immediately responded to our questions. They even made sure we got to enjoy a space launch from the beach.
Host was immediately responsive to all inquiries. The property was clean, comfortable and well stocked with items such as paper towels, coffee, aluminum foil, plastic baggies and things of this nature I usually have to buy myself. Bicycles were in fine condition and I enjoyed them every day. The pool temperature was very pleasant even on 40 degree evenings.
The best place to stay in Cocoa Beach! The house was in a great, quiet location, with a short walk to the beach. The host thought of just about everything you need to enjoy your stay with bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, a great pool, and a well stocked house. The host is also tops. We had a minor issue which she went above and beyond to fix. Having a great host is what it takes to elevate a great stay and make it exceptional. I would not hesitate to stay here again!
We loved the pool and hot tub and relaxing under the fan on the dock. The property has plenty to keep all ages entertained and is spacious, spotless and well appointed. An excellent rental experience.
This beautiful house had plenty of room, great amenities, is close to nearby interests and is very comfortable and relaxing. The host Teresa was very responsive to any questions we had. Well worth the stay!
We had a great time. The kids loved seeing the dolphins and the manatees at the dock. Relaxing around the pool we also watched two space launches. The house was as described on the website
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. This property went above and beyond our expectations! Close to everything and waterfront was simply beautiful. Lots of room and all the conveniences of home. We really only needed to bring clothes everything else was provided. We will definitely be staying here again!
The perfect getaway! Great location, gorgeous house, everything you could ask for a beach getaway!
Our stay was awesome! The house is fabulous! The pool and dock was really nice, we had dolphins that came right up to the dock. The beach is right down the road. My family loved it! If we plan to go to Cocoa beach for vacation again, this will be the spot!!!
5 stars all the way! Beautiful home on a great canal. The house comes fully loaded with everything you need for a great stay. The property manager is always available and goes above and beyond.
The location of this property is amazing! We walked to downtown Cocoa Beach several times for ice cream, cocktails, and meals and loved not having to worry about finding and paying for parking! The pool, hot tub, and dock were our favorite features. We were lucky enough to be visited by dolphin and stingray while hanging out in the rope swings on the dock. We were also able to catch an early morning SpaceX launch from the pool. The home was clean and well appointed and the beds were super comfortable! The host was also easy to reach, helpful, knowledgeable of local culture and things to do, and responsive. The only thing could have been a little better is the pool maintenance. We arrived a few days before the weekly pool cleaning and the pool was a little dirty which was no big deal. However, the lawn care company came on the same day the pool maintenance was supposed to come and they blew all of the yard clippings and debris into the pool and the pool maintenance never showed up so we didn’t use the pool our last day because it was full of grass and other debris. Overall it was a great trip and the location and outdoor amenities can’t be beat!
This house was beautiful and had everything you could think of. I love that you were less than a mile or two from anything you would want to go to. We were even able to walk to the beach and back. The host was very easy to deal with and helpful with suggestions. I highly recommend this house.
Comfortable, clean home. Very well appointed. We had everything we needed. Despite the best efforts of the helpful property manager the hot tub and pool heater worked only occasionally during our two week stay.

We have replaced the faulty pool heater with a brand new one. Also, to improve the guest experience, we've installed a spa button next to the pool like they have at resorts where guests can now turn the spa on and off whenever they would like to use it.

We have had the most wonderful stay! This home is just perfect! The moment we walked in we felt at home. The furnishings and decor are pristine and SO BEAUTIFUL! It looks like stepping into a magazine! We hardly wanted to leave during our stay and we were more than a little sad to have to go home. Love love love! If we could give this rental more than 5 stars we would. We can’t wait to come back!

Perfect!
This property is perfection and they are fabulous hosts! She says that all you need to do is pack your clothes and leave, and this is completely true. Everything you need is at the property! Pool and hot tub are great! Kayaking and paddleboarding on the canal are great! We saw dolphins and manatees from our dock! EASY walk to the beach and all beach needs are supplied! The home and property are immaculately cleaned! Could not give a higher recommendation!
The house was exactly as described online. Check in was very simple, no issues getting into the home. The pool and outside seating at the river was amazing! The home had plenty of room for everyone and we were very comfortable there. Lots of towels and other things we needed. I would come back to this home for sure in the future.

Wonderful Stay at a Canal-Side Home in Cocoa Beach
We had an absolutely amazing time staying at this beautiful house in Cocoa Beach! The location is simply perfect, right on the canal, making it easy to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. My favorite spot was definitely the lounge chair down by the water.
The heated pool was always nice and warm, which made swimming enjoyable at any time of day. In the evenings, the spa was a real treat. It was the perfect place to chill and relax after a day of exploring. The outdoor area overall was just fantastic for spending time together as a family.
Inside, the kitchen was a highlight for us. It was beautifully designed and equipped with everything you could possibly need, whether you wanted to cook a full meal or just enjoy a casual breakfast. Every detail was thought of, making it easy and pleasant to use.
The beds were super comfortable, and we all slept so well every night. There was truly nothing missing in this house — it felt like a home away from home, and we felt completely at ease and comfortable throughout our stay.
Our only regret is that our vacation was too short!
This home has lovely decor, was clean and has almost everything you might need for your vacation. Shampoo, conditioner & body wash (that smells great!) in each shower was a nice touch. Garage has lots of fun items -- floaties for the pool along with a wagon, beach chairs, toys and umbrella for the beach. Location is conveniently located to Simply Delicious --must eat for breakfast -- and The Fat Donkey which has delicious ice cream! House is 5-minute drive to a public beach and we loved watching a launch from the pool deck one evening. Overall, we enjoyed our Spring Break trip to Cocoa Beach and stay in River Isles. Rated 4 stars due to several minor things (maintenance related) which have been shared with the host. Would stay here again.
