Perfect day before our cruise!

Our family of 8 stayed here 2 nights before leaving for a cruise out of Port Canaveral. We had such a wonderful time that I almost didn't want to leave for the cruise! The property was exactly as listed and very clean. We especially enjoyed the kayaks and the manatees. We would absolutely love to stay here again.

Excellent stay! My son and I had a Space Center weekend together and chose this home to stay in. It was exactly as shown online. You can tell the owners take care of this property. Safe, clean and quiet. It was just the two of us but you could easily do multi family with all the space. Sitting outside at night listening to the sea life was a highlight for sure. Easy in and out and convenient to everything. We will be back for sure!
