I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hibiscus House! The location is fantastic. A quiet neighborhood, walking distance to beach, river pier, a great little market and good restaurants. The house is well decorated, clean and had everything I needed. A good size kitchen if you are planning meals in. Beds were very comfortable. The host was welcoming and great with communication.

Love the property and the location! House had everything needed for a long stay and to head to the beach. We loved the bikes to get around the town. The host was super responsive and we would come back. My only complaint was white curtains in the bedrooms made it hard to take a nap or sleep in.

Perfect Stay

We had such a wonderful stay at the Hibiscus House over Easter weekend. Everything was just right, from the location to the decor to the comfort of the bedrooms. It's an easy walk to a super quiet beach and a longer walk or quick drive to so many great restaurants. We cannot wait to stay again, for longer next time!

Great Stay in Melbourne Beach

Wish we could have stayed longer! The location is great, house was as described, and very clean and well-cared-for. Beach access is a short walk to a secluded section of the shore. Restaurants and market close, park close, good selection of beach equipment - chairs, boogie board, towels, etc. we had no unmet needs and the hosts were great and prompt with communication

Paradise !

This house is incredible ! The decorating is professional and welcomes visitors warmly. We had a great time in Melbourne. The beach is minutes away so we watched the sunrise every morning we were there. The best part at the end of the day after exploring was coming home to our slice of Heaven. We will definitely be back !!

Hibiscus House was truely a beautiful retreat

Hibiscus House - Walking into the house gives a feeling of airiness and serenity with a great open space in the living room that makes you want to spend all your time there. The time based battery-operated candles were a nice touch and enhanced the atmosphere. Sara and Kristin have truly thought of everything and were extremely responsive to any of our emails; our questions were answered within minutes. We had occasional run-ins with some critters, but that is to be expected in a tropical climate during the summer. Overall a great place to stay if you are looking to getaway.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. Your feedback is invaluable and helps to identify areas for improvement. We take great pride in maintaining our property to a high standard and disheartening to read your words here. Our goal is to provide an elegant and relaxed environment for our guests - we were on hand before, during and after your stay responding to any queries. I appreciate this was your first stay in a vacation rental as you usually stay in hotel accommodation. What this highlighted was perhaps a mismatch of expectations and aesthetics. We have reviewed the property description to make sure it accurately reflects the house’s amenities and thank you again for your feedback- we genuinely appreciate it.

Beautiful and Relaxing Retreat

Hibiscus House is a stunning retreat tucked away in a lovely residential neighborhood in the charming little beach town of Melbourne Beach. Florida is quite hot this time of year but upon stepping inside this home, you're immediately cool and comfortable. The home is open and airy, complete with a good central air conditioner and ceiling fans. This was a working vacation for me so I used the WiFi quite a bit without any issues at all. The pictures on this listing are an accurate representation of this beautifully decorated home. The floors are Parkay - gorgeous and must be original... the real thing. The bedding is plush and very comfortable. The bed in the master is actually adjustable. All linens were fresh and top quality. The kitchen had enough cookware that I was able to prepare anything I needed. The bikes and beach chairs were a great bonus. I rode one of the bikes to the nearby Melbourne Beach Pier to enjoy the sunset. Each morning I walked to the beach for sunrise. I brought my paddleboard on this trip so I drove to the public beach access on Ocean Avenue which is less than two miles from the house. The beach chair came in handy, as did the beach towels - they even provided sun screen! The driveway is located at the rear of the home. I was able to bring my paddleboard inside as the back room is where they keep the bikes, a beach tent, the beach towels, etc. There was plenty of room for my board - which is 11' long so I didn't have to worry about it. There is an outdoor shower which made it easy to clean my board and get the sand off of me before coming in the house. This is an exceptionally quiet getaway. You see neighbors walking by and riding by on bikes, some with young children. It just feels good - so much so that you can imagine living here. Lastly, along Ocean Avenue are some neat little restaurants, a liquor store, and the amazing Melbourne Beach Supermarket with all kinds of international fare and a HUGE wine inventory. One the west end of Ocean Avenue is the Indian River and the east end is the ocean. There's a great playground, the little town hall, a historic house, the fire department - it's simply as charming as charming can be. I'm pretty familiar with this area so I can truly say, this VRBO is a gem. The only problem, you won't want to leave.

Spacious comfortable neighborhood house near the beach

We watched a rocket launch from the beach, sitting on beach chairs from the house! High end stove and washer/dryer. Issues were resolved promptly by the host. Kitchen could be better equipped with utensils (e.g., no vegetable peeler) and if you are someone who like to sleep really cold, you will be challenged as the AC doesn't have a cold effect in the bedroom, even with the door open. Overall, very positive experience.
