Steal away to this enchanting beach villa on the idyllic shores of Melbourne Beach, FL, just steps from the Space Coast and a hop and a skip from Disney!

Soak up some relaxation at the private pool and covered patio. Gather your gang for an unforgettable movie night in your own home theater. Or unleash your inner rock stars in the karaoke room!
LIVING/DINING: If beautifully designed, clean-lined interiors give you a warm and sunny feeling inside, you’re in for a treat with these living and dining spaces.

Great communication, and accurate listing in every aspect. Would recommend it to anyone. The beach is just at walking distance and my kids loved the pool and themed rooms.

Hello Reid, thank you for taking the time to review your most recent stay at Villatel. It was our pleasure to host you and do hope to see you again soon!
This house had all the qualities that we wanted in our vacation home: it was near to the beach, had supermarts and restaurants in close vicinity, and was fully furnished with a little pool. The themed room was just wow, really putting us into the beachy vibes with its attractive wallpapers and the cute tree-house styled bed (it was an experience to sleep in it!). so I'm very glad we chose this property. I'll choose it again for my next vacation too, without a second thought.

Tbh not many times does it happen that you return from a vacation 100% satisfied, THANKS TO THIS HOUSE for making our vacations P-E-R-F-E-C-T! Thanks for making my always-whining-never-happy kids the happiest creatures in the world. They made a best friend out of the pool and roamed around the entire house in joy!
The beach and markets are very close to this home. This review comes straight from the heart of a genuinely happy mom!!! Thoroughly loved it.

Great house! Community pool not yet open as of our stay.
PROS:
•The property itself was perfect for a large group. 5 full bathrooms!
•Fully stocked spacious modern kitchen.
•Comfortable beds.
•Short walk to the beach.
•Clean (ish)...see CONS
•Villatel management VERY communicative, professional and friendly.
CONS:
•On the listing there is a photo of a community riverfront pool, however, it is not yet up and running, which was not stated on the listing.
•The pool at the house was nice, but had absolutely no sun the entire day except from 2:00-3:00 and it was only sunny on about 1/10th of the pool. It was chilly and breezy out back in January. The row of houses on the opposite side of the street had full sun on their pool the entire day, so that was a bummer.
•The sheets in the master bedroom and theme room were dirty. Was not thrilled to get in bed past midnight and then have to wash the sheets before going to bed. HOWEVER...management was apologetic and we were satisfied with their resolution.

What makes this property unique
As seasoned travelers with big families, our founders saw firsthand the drawbacks and inconsistencies of the average vacation rental. So, they set out to build and design from scratch a type of vacation property that offers everything they couldn’t find:

High bed counts (for up to 34 guests!)
Ultra-spacious living and dining rooms
Epic themed bedrooms for kids
Arcades and movie theaters
Fully stocked kitchens with high-end appliances
The most UNIQUE and MEMORABLE amenities to make your vacay experience unforgettable—from bowling alleys and treehouse rooms to indoor ninja obstacle courses, casinos, karaoke rooms, and huge spa pools.
Gone are the days of bunking with all the kids on squeaky cots, or trekking across land and sea, only to discover that those online pictures you thought you’d be seeing in person…are actually 15 years old! When you book with Villatel, you can rest assured that you and your crew will enjoy a new kind of vacation experience—in a custom-designed home that’s consistently beautiful & reliable, and offers great value.
