I had a great experience here!! Being an ex Cocoa Beach resident, it was in a great location!! Very walkable to everything, especially the beach!! If you don't want to walk, you can pick up the A1A trolley northbound by 6th street! It goes all the way through Cocoa Beach/Cape Canaveral and turns around in the Port!! I'll definitely keep this place in mind when I return to the area!!

Lovely chalet-style apartment. Clean and beautifully decorated, although could have done with some table lamps in living room and bedroom (main lights were a bit harsh when relaxing). Easy parking and good communication with check-in details. Quick and easy walk to the beautiful Cocoa Beach. Quiet, relaxing and felt really safe.

Staff reached out preemptively and the place was very clean. Would recommend clearer instruction on where to put dirty linens and towels - and recommend changing the thermostat to something cooler - the air was a bit stale and humid when we walked in. Other than that, good stay.

This trip was a delightful get away. My friend got married in downtown Cocoa so my fiancé and I decided to book this place to prevent a night time drive to Daytona. This place is tucked away and perfect for an inexpensive get away. The room entry was flawless and all of our needs were there. I was especially excited about the coffee maker. The bathroom was clean as well as the bedroom. There are plenty of on-site amenities like chairs and a grill that truly turn this stay into a home.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Unfortunately the listing was not showing correct information / or the host decided to assign another room to us. It was listed as a second room with queen bunk bed, which ended up being only a regular one. We were not able to comfortably house 5 people. I called and they told me there was a mattress in the closet which is not a decent replacement

Not safe. Door left ajar when we came back even though it was locked when we left. Not sure if someone has a secret key. There is no deadbolt to lock it from the inside, and only an electronic lock that could be glitchy and randomly open.
