Perfect Spot!, March 8, 2011

By Mary Hampton Sirianni (Simsbury, Connecticut, USA) 
My husband and I and two children stayed at this cottage this past February. We stayed on the first floor which was adorable...clean and homey with a wonderful yard, salty sea breezes, and sounds of the waves at night! The yard is all enclosed, safe for kids and/or pets, but also acts as a little "oasis"...beautiful flowers, comfortable lawn furniture, grill. The cottage is near the end of a quieter street....you are close to all the excitement of the area, yet you have this peaceful "home away from home" atmosphere to return to after a busy day sight-seeing, visiting the shops, or having a day at the beach. There are two floors to this adorable and quaint cottage. Though we stayed on the first floor, we had a glimpse of the second, as well....clean and cozy with a wonderful deck with great views of the ocean! You hardly know you have "neighbors", but the ones that come are friendly and respectful....you always feel as if you have privacy. The beach is a VERY short walk...very short and easy to shuttle back and forth for bathroom stops, lunch, etc. And we did it with small kids and tons of buckets and boats, etc etc!!! This should tell you how close and easy it is!! VERY easy and comfortable living for all age groups. Plus, the owners are trustworthy, very professional, but also very personable...they truly care about your comfort...hard to find when looking for a place via cyberspace...this was a VERY lucky find...we have already planned another stay for next year!

 A Cozy Little Cottage, July 8, 2010 
By Ginger Adcock (Madison, Georgia) 
We came as a family of three (four, including the dog), and we were all very comfortable in this cottage. We were on the 2nd floor, and all our basic amenities were provided; we even had Wi-fi for our laptop. Even though people were staying downstairs during our visit, they were never a problem. The backyard was spacious and secure enough for our dog. The beach is only 5 minutes away; and we even had our own shower outside to wash the sand off when we returned. Most of Cocoa Beach's major attractions are nearby, and Cape Canaveral is just 20 minutes away. Grocery stores, drugstores, and surf shops are also only a few blocks away. We were in the middle of privately owned condominiums, so our slice of the beach was never crowded. One of the owners, Mike, was always available if we needed him, and visited often to check on the property. All in all, it was a very comfortable place to stay on the beach. 
 
 Cocoa Beach Condo, August 13, 2009 
By Karen Barsch (Sacramento, CA, USA) 
Pros: Though smaller that I expected, this cozy condo suited the two of us perfectly. The ceiling fans and a/c kept every room at a comfortable temperature. The kitchen was well-stocked with cooking pans, utensils and tableware. There was an abundance of towels for the bathroom and beach. Ditto for the bedding. Beach chairs, boogie boards, mats and inflatables were stored outside and available at any time to take to the beach. DSL modem and cable TV enhanced our stay.  
 
 PERFECT!!!!!, May 23, 2009 
By Sarah (Wisconsin) 
This place was Great! The location to the beach and all the downtown shops was so nice. Everything that we needed was pretty much within walking distance of the house. The house itself was very clean and had everything that we could have thought of. Mike stopped in to make sure that everything was o.k. The washer and dryer were a godsend. My four teenage daghters were very happy and comfortable there as was I.

We had a very enjoyable time, and the condo was great, just like being at home, except better, could sit on deck and look at beach! Awesome

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage while we were in Florida to watch the STS-116 shuttle launch. The cottage was cozy and clean. The deck and big yard were perfect for gathering and visiting with friends and family (our group rented both the upper and lower apartments so we had the whole place to ourselves) and the beach was just a short walk away. The owners, Mike and Monica, were so nice throughout the entire process - before, during and after our stay. Mike stopped by almost daily to make sure we had everything we needed. When we made the initial reservation we were a bit worried because shuttle launch dates change so often, but they said they would work with us if there was a date change and they did. One of our cousins was the pilot for the mission so we really wanted to be there (and have a place to stay) to see him take off! We were very lucky to find a nice place with owners so friendly, professional and accommodating. Thanks!
