We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The backyard with the pool and river was amazing. My daughter and one of her friends were able to video a manatee while out on the kayak. We will definitely return if we are back in the area.

Stayed 1 week for spring break at the canal house. It was incredible! We fished, went kayaking, and took the bicycles out for ice cream at the Fat Donkey. Home was with walking distance to the beach. Beautiful area. The pool and hot tub was very enjoyable. From the backyard we swung in the swings while watching dolphins and manatees swim by. We cannot wait to come back and visit again!

This property was everything we wanted and more! It was very clean, and had plenty of extras that we used like bikes, kayaks, fishing poles, beach chairs and boogie boards. My husband and I walked on the beach each morning and kayaked to find dolphins and manatees each evening. Beautiful home in a beautiful location. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Wonderful stay!!

This home was as close to perfect as it gets for us-clean, close to walking trail and downtown beach area. Use of the kayaks and bikes was a big plus. The hot tub worked great as well. On top of all of that, the neighbors were so nice and helpful-one of them even gave us a boat ride through the mangroves! The host was very responsive when needed! We hope to return next year!

Great location with pool

Nice property with the essentials. The pool was wonderful and where we spent most of our time. It was close to the beach and a lot of great restaurants. You could fish right from the backyard although we caught nothing. There was a bit of an ant issue in the kitchen and guest bath but there was spray.

Fabulous home in cocoa beach

What a gem! Quiet neighborhood with minutes to beach, shopping and restaurants. Newly remodeled and fashionable. Hot tub and pool are amazing and steps away from bay inlet. We rocked in hanging chairs at the bay’s water edge. Watched sunset from the pool and star-gazed in hot tub! Hard to leave the house and go to the beach! So peaceful and lovely.

Another great stay in cocoa beach

The home we stayed in for our family thanksgiving gathering was awesome. Located on one of Cocoa Beach's canals with a back yard that felt secluded but only a five minute walk to all the action of downtown Cocoa Beach. We watched manatees and dolphins frolic in the canal, used the house's kayaks to explore and enjoyed the hot tub. It was a little chilly for the pool but definitely would get lots of use in warmer weather. The house itself had everything we needed and plenty of space for our group of six. And, as always the folks at Stay in Cocoa beach were attentive and helpful.

Amazing Property!

If you're looking for the perfect vacation home, look no further! This house is amazingly updated and very clean. It is stocked with so many goodies for the whole family! From beach toys, kayaks, paddle board, and even bikes! We loved the quick bike ride to downtown Cocoa and short drive to the beach. The hot tub was a huge hit and it was so peaceful to go swing out by the river in the evening. We couldn't have imagined a more perfect place to call “home” during our trip. Zareh was available for all of our needs and is an incredible host! Highly recommend this beautiful home and Stay in Cocoa beach! We are already looking forward to our annual trip next year!

Dolphins Were A Bonus!

Wonderful rental. Three nights pre-cruise stay and we really enjoyed our time. A bottle of bubbly and cookies as a welcome too! Sat out by the pool and two dolphins would swim by - just beautiful to see. The only issue was there are no coffee or side tables in the lounge and we didn't like to put our drinks on the floor in case we knocked them over. Not a major issue we just ended up moving the bedside table in there. Would we stay again? Yes!
