Amazing First Floor Condo steps from the Beach w/ breathtaking views - sleeps 6

10/10 Excellent

"The experience was excellent from the start. Host Steve McHale was very helpful and very friendly and responsive throughout our stay. The unit was as described and very well kept, clean and stocked with any basic need one might have during a beach stay. Steps from the beach with easy access for beautiful sunrises and days spent relaxing by the water. We had a day of constant heavy rain thanks to Isaias, and the unit was very comfortable while we were stuck indoors. It is close to stores, restaurants, and activities which was a very nice surprise for me. The seafood restaurants were minutes away and the seafood was to die for. The sight of these mammoth cruise ships going out to sea was something to see. Our trip was specifically made to visit the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse and to my surprise I could see it from the beach! The Cape Canaveral Premium Tour is highly recommended. Thank you for a great vacation!!!"

Coastal Breeze Retreat Next to the Beach- Heated Pool/Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent

The decor provides the perfect energy for your getaway. We enjoyed the home’s space and amenities, perfect to grab your bag and go care free. Your host Dustin has already covered all the details!"
