This house couldn't have been better, honestly! Pedro's communication, responsiveness and hospitality are top-notch, a real pleasure. The house...perfect in every way. Setting...end of the street, great neighborhood, surrounded by lush trees. Backyard...large fenced, great for relaxing outside in privacy. Thank you for everything, Pedro...we'll be back!!

1st Beach Visit

Several members of our group had never seen the ocean so this was an exciting event for them. Add hurricane Ian into this trip and it's definitely a once in a lifetime experience. Our stay was pleasant even though we cut it short for safety. The property is fantastic, great backyard where we did our own seafood boil while playing great music and some pretty competitive corn hole games. Enjoyed by all, I highly recommend this property and the owners are very attentive and quick to address any concerns or needs. Thank you and I'll be renting again!

The biggest issue was the infestation of ants. In every room. Also, when the guest shower was first run, black dirt came up from the drain. Also, the property wasn't ready at check-in time (no shade against the woman cleaning, she was working hard).

Convenient getaway for Melbourne airport & area.

Convenient, neat, & clean. Fees seemed a bit high.Primary communication w/ host appeared to be via VRBO app, which I didn’t have. Fortunately we were able to communicate via text to get inside.Minor house comments (for owner):- One remote missing (living room).-Toilets need minor maintenance.- Knives dull. (Add sharpener? ) I liked the T-stat w/ limited adjustment.

Very nice place with lots of room

We kind of waited until the last minute to schedule our accommodations. This cottage did not disappoint. Sometimes the pictures can give false hopes. This was not the case here. I think the place is nicer than the pictures. We will stay here again if in need in this area.

Rough start, great stay

We were unable to access the home upon arrival. Host was ill and unreachable, Vrbo authorized two hotel rooms which were covered. Nice home for a family of six to enjoy the area while visiting a friend at Florida Tech. This was our first time renting a home. The home was well stocked with all the kitchen, bath, and laundry essentials.
