We absolutely LOVE staying at this Cocoa Beach property! It sits on the shore of the Banana River and the views are spectacular! Dolphins regularly travel up and down the channel. We love watching them from the dock in the morning, relaxing in the Adirondack chairs while enjoying our morning coffee and tea. The pool is lovely and the beach access is just across the street. We come to Cocoa Beach to surf and it is an easy, quick walk to the ocean. The property is clean, well-stocked and spacious. The owners and caretakers are wonderful and always quick to respond to any needs or questions.

The cleaning crew didn’t do their job before we got there, but the hosts made this better. The pool,the view and location was great. Just needs a lot of updating. The furniture was very uncomfortable to sit on no where to rest your neck and no fluffiness in the pillows of the couches. We went 4 years ago and it was still the same. But like I say, some updating and it would have been great. Also some good fishing in the bay! Had a great time in the pool!

Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologze that the initial cleanliness did not meet our usual high standards. To remedy this immediately, we fully refunded your cleaning fee as a gesture of goodwill. However, we were deeply diappointed by the condition in wich our property was left. Our cleaning service reported an unprecedented amount of mess and trash far beyond normal checkout , as well as an unserviceable television. While we always strive to ensure our guests have a great stay, we also expect our home to be treated with basic respect. We have addressed the cleanliness issues whit our team to ensure this remains an isolated incident.

This is the bottom accommodation of this building. I believe theres two apartments upstairs that are rentals as well. There was 4 of us staying here & we had a wonderful time. The views are beautiful from morning to night. Our last night we actually experienced some bioluminescence in the river water which was super cool but doesn't happen every night. If I had to guess, this is the host vacation home so definitely lived in but up kept very well & clean. We'll definitely be back, we love Cocoa Beach

Our 3rd trip here, and booked our 4th for next year while we were here. Our kids love it, and so do us parents. Can’t beat the location, and the more often we come, the more excited we get to come back and visit our favorite spots from years past. Already looking forward to our next visit! Thank you!!

Location was wonderful! Enjoyed watching the dolphins each day and the sunsets were beautiful. House was clean but some accent pillows were not. Could use a new couch. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Only downside were the neighbors above us. They were a bit loud late at night. Overall we had a great time!

Hello Kelly, schön, dass ihr eine gute Zeit bei uns hattet. Leider habe ich auf die Nachbarn keinen Einfluss. Am besten ist immer, wenn man direkt mit den Leuten spricht. Unser Sofa ist voll Leder und erst ein Jahr alt. Ich wünsche euch eine gute Zeit und bis zum nächsten Mal. Herzliche Grüsse, Regula und Manfred

Excellent Property on the River

This is our second time here and it was amazing as expected. The home is in an excellent location and the amenities are exactly what we're looking for. The kayaks and paddle board on the river are the perfect touch for water activities and the short walk to the beach couldn't be easier.

Fun, short stay

The property is an older home that had plenty of space for my family. The kids were thrilled to have their own rooms and we really enjoyed the pool and the view of the dolphins in the river. Walk to the beach was just a couple of minutes and very easy to cross the road. Thanks for a great place to stay!
