Clean rooms and nice amenities throughout. The communal pool and hot tub have a great view. Pirate room has solid 6 beds in one room. Kids loved it!!! We will recommend to a group of large families with kids. Heated pool and grill was fantastic. Great job team Villatel !!
This place was fantastic! It was exactly as described and conveniently located close to everything. The bedrooms , kitchen, arcade rooms and pool were nice as shown in the images. I will definitely stay here again in the future.
The Villatel team was incredibly friendly and accommodating, catering to all of our needs. Additionally, the location was conveniently close to the airport and boasted a variety of excellent nearby restaurants.
Great home for our large crew! The kitchen and the pool area were amazing!❤️

We stayed here following a family wedding in the Orlando area. The place was in a great location, easy walk to the beach. The house was lovely and spacious. The few times we had to contact the hosts for maintenance, it was very prompt and courteous service, even on a holiday. Would stay here again.
I really loved the space for everyone. Each person had their own bed. Property was clean and new.

We're delighted to hear you and your family loved the home Dean! Keep us in mind the next time you're planning on visiting the Melbourne area, we'd love to welcome you again soon!
Our entire family met in Melbourne to celebrate a milestone birthday. The pirate room at Rhythmic Retreat was a hit with the kids, as well as the game room. Short walk to the beach and lovely private and community pool. Hosts were great and quick to communicate with. Would highly recommend.

Kids loved the pirate ship room! The theatre room was as hit! We used the pool morning, moon and night. Home was spacious and close to the beach.
We do recommend a privacy fence or hedge on both ends of the pool.
A Kuerig coffee maker would have been perfect kitchen addition.

Hello Teresa, thank you for choosing to stay with us! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time at our property and truly appreciate your feedback. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we look forward to having the pleasure of hosting you again in the future. Feel free to return to your home away from home anytime – you're always welcome in a Villatel home!
The property and the neighborhood were great. The home had everything we wanted. There were a couple of items that could have been better: Parking - Could have been more accommodating. The garage is partially finished and the other is used for storage. With only 2 parking spots, and sleeps 16, there's a lot of car shuffling occurring. A golf cart rental offer might help. Ice Machine - The ice machine didn't work the whole time. Maintenance was called and came out, and promised to bring some ice spice the ice machine didn't work, and never showed back up, so the whole week, in July, in Florida, having to leave every other day to grab more ice. Pool - Pool was slightly green when we arrived, but the sign says the pool should be serviced twice a week. By the end of our week, it still was very dirty, and after calling, and a no show from the pool person, we finally called a 4th time and got them there our last day.The house was amazing and tons of fun for everyone, despite the minor things listed.
