Loved our stay! Close walk to the beach. Stocked with chairs, cooler, and anything you could need in the kitchen. Pool area is beautiful. It is a double but felt very private. Would definitely stay again!
Everything we could have possibly needed and more! Host was very responsive, fun pool and outdoor area, so many great things for the beach, wonderful kitchen, clean, beautiful home with space for all six of us…I could go on and on!

We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
We would welcome you and your family back at anytime.
Beautiful home and well equipped. Beautiful views. Excellent location. Owner was very gracious. Unfortunately, weather was not cooperative during our short stay and not able to fully enjoy all the amenities. Need to return.
This house was stunning, clean, and in a perfect location. Rhonda, the owner, was always responsive to my questions and thought of everything we could possibly need! Wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend!

We are glad you enjoyed our home as much as we do.
Absolutely everything was great! This home was super clean, inviting and had everything we could have needed. Everyone loved all the beach chairs, toys etc. The close access to the beach was great. Pool was nice and warm and had lots of toys for the kids. The elevator was so helpful for groceries, luggage and sometimes a much needed rest. I would highly recommend this home. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for everything!
Beautiful house with everything you need to cook, sleep, and have fun at the beach. A1A can get pretty busy, but overall this place was perfect for what we needed. A couple great restaurants within walking distance as well.
Absolutely magical place! Nothing spared and every detail you can think of! Thank you Rhonda for saving our family vacation, we truly can’t wait to return to your beautiful home!!!
The house is stocked very nicely and the location is very nice. The access to beach was just across the road and there is plenty of beach gear to enjoy.
Beautiful property! We had plans to go to the zoo and ziplining but the house had so much to do, we just stayed put! Beach, kayaks, pool , jacuzzi, foos ball and large flat screen tvs in every room!
Rhonda is the ‘hostess with the mostest’…thought of everything to make our stay perfect. Lovely home away from home. Great outdoor space as well. Kept the children entertained for hours when we weren’t at the beach that is.
We had a great trip to Cocoa Beach and enjoyed this beautiful house. The kids loved all of the beach equipment and made good use of it with a great beach just steps away. They also really enjoyed the pool. The house was well equipped with all of the extras that made it feel like a home away from home!
This property was beautiful! The photos do not do it justice.. in my opinion. Great host and great communication. We loved the outdoor sitting area and the kitchen/living space was gorgeous. The master suite was 10/10. As a 37 week pregnant lady, the shower was exactly what I needed! So relaxing! The location was great, too. We loved the sunrise and sunset view! The house was equipped with everything you need. You can tell it was very thought out. Thanks for a great stay!
We had an absolutely fantastic time at The View. Rhonda was always available to communicate if something came up and everything at the property was perfect for our group. We never ran out of things to do! The hot tub, the pool, the beach, the bikes kept all ages in our group happily active throughout our stay!
This is probably one of the most thoughtful places we've stayed, everything was thought of. I kept telling my husband we really could have just packed up only our clothes and hit the road. We really loved the location, it's further away from the more crowded and touristy areas and an extremely short walk across the A1A to the beach. Our family had a wonderful stay!
Our family and friends had a great 3-night stay at The View! The house is beautiful, and the property is fitted with everything you would need for a great stay! The views from both sides of the house are breath-taking and the walk to beach or to river are the easiest. Rhonda was easy and pleasant to work with. A great experience, much better than a hotel stay. I highly recommend!!!!
Everything was as advertised or better. We were a group of soccer players and parents playing in Melbourne. The boys loved the easy walk to the beach and the parents enjoyed the ease of coming and going from this great location.
Our group of 8 rented this VRBO for 3 nights. It was perfect! Loved how close it is to the beach and the outdoor area and pool were perfect for relaxing afternoons. Rhonda was quick to respond when we had questions. The property is beautiful appointed everything you need was there. From beach towels, beach chairs/umbrellas/cooler, charging station, and a well stocked kitchen. It was very clean and well kept up property. I high recommend staying at this property!
Rhonda's View is a place to be,
In Cocoa Beach, by the sea.
With a pool and hot tub too,
This location is a dream come true.
Just steps from the sandy beach,
And the tranquil river within reach.
It's the perfect spot for a vacation,
A place to relax and enjoy elation.
Great food nearby for you to try,
And with each bite, your spirits will fly.
The View is a place you won't forget,
And will come back again, that's a safe bet.
So come and bask in the Florida sun,
And let Rhonda's View be your fun.
A paradise that's simply divine,
In a location that's truly sublime.
