This property is just as described...it's pretty great! A wonderful location on Melbourne Beach, quiet with direct access to a pristine beach. And the owner has literally thought of everything you will need during your stay...cooler, beach bag, flashlight and charging stations in multiple locations! Plus, we were welcomed with a bottle of wine, some sweet treats, coffee and a nice supply of water. The building's top floor provides a view of both the sunrise and sunset...and we even saw dolphins in the surf while standing in the kitchen. It really is a wonderful place to get away.
We cooked most meals and the kitchen was well equipped and well labeled so things were easy to find. All the supplies you need like paper towels, baggies, Saran Wrap, tin foil etc. were also available.
The Publix is just 15 minutes away and downtown Melbourne is about 30 minutes, where there are lots of restaurant options. We mostly just hung out at the beach, which was not typically all that busy. It was easy to find a quiet spot to enjoy the waves.
A couple of things to know prior to booking...there is no grill on the property and you should plan to bring your own shade, there were no umbrellas on property. If you are lucky enough to get beautiful, sunny days like we did, you'll want to find some shade. The beach chairs provided are Adirondack style, which would not fit in our beach tent so depending on your shade option, you may want to bring or buy traditional beach chairs too. Those on property were not in good condition, nor were the boogie boards. A surf store is 10-15 minutes away, which will have anything you need.
We loved our stay and highly recommend it for a quiet getaway on a pristine beach. It's clear that the owner really wants you to enjoy your time at the property.
