Blue House at the Beach

House is in a quiet residential neighborhood. While you cannot see the ocean from the house, it's just a few houses around the corner to the ocean path. A beautiful beach with a jetty you can fish from and watch cruise ships departing. Peacocks live in the neighborhood.Bedrooms neat, clean, plenty of closet space. Master and second bedroom have sliders to upper deck. While very nice, view looks to neighboring roofs and some palm trees. Beds are set European style (duvet – no top sheet or blanket). Owner purchased some and delivered them washed the next morning, which I appreciated.Signs in each bathroom to “use dark towels for makeup removal” but we did not see a single dark towel.NOTESWelcome Binder – A few pages of “do/don't” wifi password. Details like nearby attractions, recommended restaurants, etc. would have been nice.No instructions on TV usage. Owners reply: No paid channels – only YouTube, Disney, and free channels which we never figured out. Digital thermostat instructions would have been helpful.Sign on fireplace glass to “not light the fireplace for any reason.” Ironing Board – Is tiny (3 ft)While home is listed as up to 8 guests, there is Extra Person Fee for more than two. We were charged 105 for a third person (who ultimately did not join us). Fee was not clear until payment receipt.Noticeable scent upon arrival – not unpleasant but fairly strong, and either dissipated after a few days or we became accustomed.Yes. Would visit again.

The house was exceptionally clean, immensely stocked, and beautifully decorated. The host was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. My family enjoyed use of the pool, hot tub, game room and we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived to the home with a fully decorated Christmas tree (as our stay spanned the holiday), what a thoughtful touch and one that made being away for Christmas all that much more special. Closeness to beach was a plus and made good use of the beach chairs, beach towels, etc. offered. We would definitely recommend this house to friends and family and would rent again for our next visit!

What a perfect location and excellent host! The house was immaculate and well appointed. The host even tastefully decorated for Christmas. She even left a goodie basket of snacks and wine on the counter, knowing I had pre-arranged to host a family Thanksgiving meal for family. It was perfect as the table seated 10 with ample room and there was additional seating in the living area at a giant cocktail table and enormous sectional. The pool and hot tub were so comfortable and private, and we enjoyed the outdoor living spaces. The proximity to the beach access was fantastic, and so convenient to Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral National Seashore. If I could give it more stars I would. I loved everything about it. I only had one small issue while there and the host addressed it immediately. Fabulous!

This was our 7th family winter road trip to FL from MN, and everyone agrees it was the best! The home truly feels like a luxury hotel - extremely clean and well appointed. We were completely spoiled with how close the home is to the beach access - we’ll never stay anywhere we need to drive again! We all loved walking down the beach to the port to watch the ships come and go. The kids loved the pool area and the pool table/game room. We didn’t need much of anything, but whenever we did have a question the host was super responsive. If I had to nitpick, it was a little disappointing that the hot tub could only be used twice a day in 3 hour increments, but it wasn’t a huge deal because the weather was so nice. Overall just an incredible experience and highly recommend!
