What Guests Are Saying
Guests consistently rave about the canal-side backyard where dolphins and manatees make regular appearances, often spotted from the dock or while kayaking in the provided kayaks. The spacious, well-equipped kitchen earns special praise for having everything needed to cook full meals, and the screened patio with TV and electric fireplace becomes the favorite gathering spot for most visitors. Location is ideal, just 10 minutes from both Kennedy Space Center and Cocoa Beach, yet tucked in a quiet neighborhood. A few guests mention the mattresses could use upgrading and occasional minor maintenance needs, but the responsive management team addresses issues quickly.

We stayed here for 3 weeks in March 2020 and loved it. Our favorite things was the wide open kitchen space and the beautiful area on the porch. The area is great and there is lots to do.

great stay, we were very close to the beach and to the cruise terminal, but still away from the crowds.
It was as we hoped
It was as we hoped! The hot tub was a little green and water level too low. But we were able to take care of it easily. Great spot to stay!
