Wedding night

We got married at Field Manor which is only minutes away from this lovely spot. It was perfect for us. We loved the decor and the layout. She grew up in the area and I have been coming to the Space Coast to the beach as long as I can remember. We would rent this place again with my college age kids (2) because each would have their own room and space for friends.

Merritt Island Adventure, 2024

We were a party of four adults, a teen and a tween. The property was very easy to find via Google Maps, and all of Merritt Island had a slightly weathered look and feel to it, not far from what one might imagine Margaritaville to be like. But, while the exterior may have been a bit weathered, the interior was immaculate. The photos were true to life and the accommodations outstanding. But the most striking thing about the property was the care that the host took to make us welcomed and comfortable. From the overabundance of towels and linens to the tampons and pads that were provided (just in case). The coded lock worked on the second try (I'm a butterfingers), and we had ample parking for our two large vehicles. The beds were comfy, the hot water was HOT and the property manager lived next door. We could not be happier with our experience and if we make a return trip to the area, we will be looking for Mr. Bromley's properties again!!!

About the host

Hosted by John Bromley

Host profile image

I’m passionate about creating spaces that feel warm, welcoming, and memorable. After living internationally, I’ve learned the importance of having a place that feels like home no matter where you are. Hosting allows me to share that sense of comfort and connection with travelers from around the world. I love seeing guests relax, recharge, and make lasting memories here on Florida’s Space Coast.

Why they chose this property

I was drawn to this peaceful island neighborhood for its charm and unbeatable location. It offers the perfect mix of quiet retreat and easy access to everything — from Cocoa Beach and Port Canaveral to Historic Cocoa Village and Orlando’s attractions. I love how you can enjoy world-class attractions and, yet be minutes away from beaches, dining, and small-town living. It’s the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

This Space Coast island retreat offers something rare — a modern, newly renovated vacation rental near Cocoa Beach and Port Canaveral that feels peaceful, private, and inspiring. The home’s location allows guests to watch rocket launches from the backyard, reach cruise terminals in minutes, and enjoy beaches, shopping, and dining nearby.

Designed for relaxation after busy days exploring Kennedy Space Center, Disney, or the Atlantic coast, it blends contemporary design with cozy comfort. With fast Wi-Fi, fully equipped amenities, and easy access to all major attractions, this home stands out as one of the best Florida vacation rentals near Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral.
