Island Escape w/ Private Pool & Outdoor Haven
Summary:
Welcome to Your Private Merritt Island Paradise!
3 bedrooms • 2 bathrooms • 5 total beds (2 queens, 3 twins)
Large private fenced yard with sparkling pool
Covered tiki area with seating & lighting for evening hangouts
Multiple outdoor lounging & dining areas
Fully equipped kitchen & bright coastal interior
Minutes to Cocoa Beach, Port Canaveral & Kennedy Space Center
Family-friendly retreat with plenty of space to relax and play
The Space:
Escape to your own slice of paradise in Merritt Island, FL — a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath coastal home with everything you need for a fun, comfortable, and memorable stay. With 5 total beds (2 queens and 3 twins), this home is perfect for families or groups seeking sunshine, space, and relaxation. Inside, you’ll find a bright open-concept layout with coastal-chic furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen for home-cooked meals, and cozy living areas designed for lounging after a day of adventure. Each bedroom is thoughtfully appointed to provide a restful night’s sleep, while the bathrooms are stocked with fresh towels and beach-day essentials.
Outside, you’ll find the highlight of the home — a large private fenced-in backyard with a sparkling pool, surrounded by comfortable outdoor seating, shaded hangout areas, and lush tropical landscaping. The covered tiki bar makes for the perfect gathering spot — mix a drink, grill out, and unwind under the string lights as the sun sets. Whether you’re lounging poolside, playing outdoor games, or enjoying family dinners beneath the tiki hut, this backyard was made for making memories.
Just minutes from Cocoa Beach, the Kennedy Space Center, and Port Canaveral, you’ll have endless options for adventure — surf the waves, catch a rocket launch, explore the waterfront, or enjoy dining at local favorites nearby. After a day of fun, return to your private retreat where island breezes and laid-back vibes await.
Guest Access:
We provide keyless entry with digital door locks.

Merritt Island is located on Florida's largest island, which serves as the home of NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Meet an astronaut, enjoy the automated thrills of the Shuttle Launch Experience and explore other interactive displays.

Wildlife lovers and birdwatchers: be sure to check out nearby Banana River, a 31-mile lagoon with salt marshes, oyster beds and mangrove swamps that are home to dolphins, manatees, blue herons and more.
