Was definitely a cute little villa. The internet was spotty. Tried to see about getting a later check out and no one ever got back to us. But hands down we enjoyed our stay and definitely will go back.

Deceivingly wonderful!!! When you initially pull in there is a slight pause & passing thought of “what did I book”?! The first thing you’ll see is a lot of gravel, trash cans and misc stuff that appears to no longer have a purpose. The building itself feels super dated from the exterior but once inside you’ll be beyond pleasantly surprised! Very clean and updated! A well appointed granite kitchen and clean tile floors will be your first glance. Bedrooms have clean and fresh linens! Bathroom is modern and again towels and bath mat are fresh & clean. Very nice large smart TVs in all bedrooms and living area. The dock out back is in terrible disrepair and needs immediate attention but all the water toys are available as promised. Would def stay again! It’s a shame the outside property looks like a dump and the waterfront decking is dangerous. A little clean up in the yard and some new decking would go a long way. However…Highly recommend!!!

Overall the place was great! The rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, and surprisingly very modern/updated in regards of decor in comparison to many we have been to. The staff was friendly and accommodating with each request made throughout our stay. With some pretty minor changes, I would say AMAZING! One huge thing being blackout curtains…especially for the bedrooms that face the parking area. Anytime a car would park our entire bedroom would light up as if someone turned on all the lights.. so the weekend was a little sleepless for our room with people coming and going pretty late throughout the night. Also would recommend just tossing all the board games and yard games and replacing with some new ones… the ones there were pretty old and everyone we attempted had missing pieces. Granted no one comes to the beach to sit inside, but it’s a nice option if you get hit with some not great weather or need a break from the sun. Other than that… fantastic and would recommend.

Over all the property is good. Perfect location with a beautiful patio over looking the banana river. Short walking distance to the beach. Our unit was rather run down and the bathroom/septic system was very smelly. The mattresses were also a little “old” and very soft.

Great location, nice apartment suites, well designed. Couch extremely uncomfortable as a bed. Stingy with supplies like TP and no coffee maker. Annoying to be expected to take out trash and do dishes.

This place is absolutely amazing. The unit is gorgeous and spotless. The location is quiet. The place we stayed at was well stocked and the one thing we needed they didn’t have, was brought to us within an hour. This is a great spot for family to relax and have a quiet time but still get to the hot spots in the area. I already recommended the place to 3 families and we just left today!!

Beware of unit 10! No AC!

My husband and I and our dog stayed four nights. This place was well appointed, in a great location by the water with a fantastic view. Plus it couldn’t be a better set up to access the water for our kayak. But with all these good points my husband and I will not be staying here again. This room SHARED an air conditioner with the room next door, to which they had full control. No control for air conditioning in this unit (#10). BEWARE this room is at the mercy of the room next door! Windows did not open, but even if they did, there were no screens to keep insects out. I ask the neighbors if they would be kind enough to turn the AC on but they did not want to because it was too loud. I messaged management multiple time over the course of our stay and all I was told was that they would send a tech to adjust it. What? Send a tech to make the neighbors turn on the air? Well they didn’t. We were without air for 3 days! This unit gets the dun all day! Hot snd stuffy! New neighbors came in our last night there. The air was turned on which felt great! Unfortunately though, our new neighbors liked their marijuana. All night the stench of their skunk weed wafted into our room via the air conditioning duct. Ruined what would have been a good nights sleep. Couldn’t wait to get out of there the next morning. After expressing our dissatisfaction, management never even offered to make our stay more comfortable or compensate us.

Loved the location!!

The location was absolutely amazing...right on the water, the views were stunning...sunrise, sunset... beautiful! Very cute, updated villa! The only negative we would mention is the sharing of A/C with the unit next to us. We could not control the temperature on our side and it did get quite stuffy and uncomfortable in there. Thankfully there is a ceiling fan and a stand/oscillating fan in the bedroom, so that helped some. We would definitely stay in that particular unit/villa again if we are back in the area again!

Quiet Gem for families on the south end of Cocoa.

It was quiet and the rooms are great for families. They thought of literally everything. The property sits on the banana river with a sun deck and a small beach access into the water where they provide courtesy paddle boards for use. The Beach is is across the road with entrance through the Anthony’s resort parking area. Just walk. The beach is wide and not crowded. Loved this place.
