This is a relaxing place to kickback: beautiful views overlooking the Atlantic and Cape Canaveral & plenty of space for two couples to spread out. We made use of the Green Egg grill. The Cafe Coconut Grove is a treat. Sebastian Inlet is amazing for fishing.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. We are fortunate to have the cottage and try to keep her heritage in mind while providing a relaxing beach vacation. The South Beaches of Brevard County offer a unique glimpse into Old Florida. The nature, quiet beaches, and mostly private homes keep the beaches pristine. Many of our guests return year after year building on the experience and making memories. Thank you for your kind words.

About the host

Hosted by Julia Branch Hill

Host profile image
Paradise Found is a 'happy' accident! I (Julia) grew up in the Sebastian/Vero area and loved being a child on the beaches here. My parents have always lived in Florida, but my life has taken me in several different directions. Joe and I were fortunate to find this special place and we are now so pleased to share it with our guests It truly is 'Old Florida' and a slice of Paradise.

Why they chose this property

There is nothing more special than having a wonder of nature at your door step. The Atlantic Ocean is a mighty and powerful thing full of interest and wonder. The beauty of the area abounds. Each season brings it's own special circumstances: Fishing, shelling, birds and the magnificent turtles that have nested here for centuries. Looking over the ocean and viewing the manatee, dolphins, fish and the occasional whale are truly spectacular. Of course just relaxing and pondering over the energy the ocean creates isn't bad either. The life force of the ocean is ever evolving and to have the chance to be apart no matter how short is priceless.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefit of this property is a virtually private beach. This truly is 'Old Florida'. There are no high rises, commercial traffic or other distractions. This is a very private part of the beach with private access. Yet! You are close to the things you want. Shopping and necessities are a short drive or bicycle ride. Historic sites are close by: Sebastian Inlet, The Cape and even the Orlando theme parks are within an easy commute. It's the best of both worlds. The guest unit provides a private accommodation with exclusive amenities of a stand alone property- while maintaining affordable beachside accommodations.
