This home is even more beautiful than the pictures show. My family stayed at this home 3/03/26-3/11/26. My daughter was playing softball at the Space Coast Complex and this home was a very convenient location to get to the complex and also to the beach. We loved everything about this home. Comfortable beds, very clean, had all the supplies we needed and more, pool/hot tub were outstanding. The owners are so sweet and were incredibly easy to communicate with and very welcoming. If we are ever back in this area we would stay here again without a doubt! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

We had a wonderful stay at this Fair Winds on Merritt Island. The home was very clean and well maintained, and everything looked just like the listing. The rooms were very comfortable and the space felt perfect for a relaxing family trip.The host was excellent—very responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with before and during our stay. Check-in was smooth and instructions were clear.One of the highlights was the private pool, which our family really enjoyed. It was a great place to relax after a day of exploring the area. The home is also family-friendly, with plenty of space and amenities that make traveling easy. The location was convenient for visiting nearby attractions and beaches, making it a great base for exploring the Space Coast.Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again if we return to Merritt Island.

The property is exactly as listed. We were thrilled with our stay ... the quality of the furnishings, the fantastic pool, the comfort of the beds and couches... everything was as we would like. The property managers were very responsive to questions and, though we did not need their assistance during our stay, we felt they would be ready and able to help us if needed. The property is close to everything we had planned for the trip (Kennedy Space Center, Airboat ride at Wild Florida, Cocoa Beach, and SeaWorld), and though the area surrounding it is suburban-busy, it was isolated enough to give us quiet and privacy so we could relax when in the home. Nearby Publix and gas stations were fine. We would 100% recommend the property to all and it was very tough for us to leave it this morning and make our way back to "regular life." It truly was an oasis for us, and a much-needed respite from our hectic schedules. Make sure to go to nearby Osteen Park to catch a sunset (photo included)!

House is beautiful and very clean. Well stocked, lots of everything you need. Host gives great instruction, very good communication and accommodating. The pool and hot tub were not heated upon arrival as we expected, but there are clear instructions on how to put them heating. This was a bummer for us as we were only there one night, and hoped to use the hot tub when we got there. We did put it heating, but due to the record cold temps, the hot tub did not heat up so we were not able to use it. Maybe a thermal cover would help? But everything else was great, we do recommend the house. Walmart delivery and Lyft rides were easily available for us.

Thanks for the great review. Yes, our first freeze in 40 years and things did not know how to react. It was virtually impossible to heat a pool from freezing. We appreciate your patience.

Absolutely beautiful house with a huge pool. House is huge and in a great neighborhood. Host was always prompt responding. Master suite is huge! Only downside is that one of the bedrooms with a king bed didn’t seem to have any air conditioning and was very hot.

Thanks Christina. As mentioned to you, you must leave the sun shade down the entire day. Its the East side of the house and we have installed the shade for that reason.

About the host

Hosted by Laura

Host profile image
I am originally from Wisconsin—Go Pack Go! My teaching journey then took me to Charleston, South Carolina, where I met my husband, a retired Navy veteran from Kentucky. Our path eventually led us to Florida, where we have called home for the past 15 years.
I make it a point to walk the beach at least four times a week, soaking in the beauty and tranquility of our coastal surroundings. Whenever possible, we take our boat out to explore the waterways. Living here, I’ve developed a passion for discovering the unique destinations that each area has to offer.
One of my favorite things is sharing our local gems with others. Whether you’re looking for a cozy hole-in-the-wall sushi spot or an upscale fine dining experience, I’m always excited to recommend great places to eat and activities for all to help you experience the best our community has to offer!

Why they chose this property

Living here means there's always something to do. I walk in Cocoa Village, a quaint spot a few miles west, about three times a week and visit the beach most mornings. The neighborhood is beautiful and close to Rotary Park, which features new workout stations, a walking trail, and scenic views. I can reach the airport in 35 minutes or drive south for a weekend getaway. It's a peaceful area with plenty of space for you and your guests to enjoy

What makes this property unique

Living here offers plenty of activities, from regular walks in Cocoa Village to mornings at the beach. The neighborhood is attractive, near Rotary Park with new workout stations, a walking trail, and scenic views. The airport is 35 minutes away. This peaceful area provides generous space and privacy, unlike other neighborhoods where houses are close together. There's room for everyone to enjoy, whether relaxing by the pool or spending time outdoors.

So close to the beach and Cocoa Village, you are in the middle of it all. Between two rivers and the beach, so much to do! You will most likely see a rocket launch during your stay.
