July 2025 - Family of five from Nevada. Thankyou for providing us this gem! We loved the location. It reminded my wife of her grandmother's place in Lakeland, FL when she was a little girl I hope that we will have the opportunity to rent from you all again in the future. Many thanks! We had a blast!
June 2025 - Family of five from Tennessee. We had a wonderful time enjoying our visit to Cocoa Beach and your beautiful home. You have thought of everything our family might need and then some! We will certainly be back. Thanks so much!
June 2025 - Family of five from Iowa. Once again, thank you so much for allowing us to call your house our home for a few days. We could not be happier with our (2nd) stay. The beach, the pier, the waves, the restaurants, and the wildlife reminded us quickly of how much we missed Cocoa Beach and how difficult it is for us to leave. We hope to back for our third visit soon!
May 2025 - Family of four from Missouri; plus two from Nebraska. We can't say thankyou enough! We got to spend a lot of time on the beach and in the water. We also took a trip up to Daytona Beach just to say we made the right choice staying in Cocoa Beach. The highlights of the trip were seeing a SPACEX rocket launch at night and a night fishing trip during which both our children landed sharks! We greatly enjoyed the beautiful back patio, garden and grilling. We also made good use of the beach wagon and beach toys. Our 15 year old son and 18 year old daughter were like little kids again. We can't wait to come back!
April 2025 - Family of four from Rochester, New York. Our family of four had a wonderful time staying here! Our kids (ages 7 and 12) loved having access to so much beach gear, especially the wagon! We checked out the Cocoa Beach Pier, saw turtles at Manatee Sanctuary Park, went to the Kennedy Space Center, did a Dolphin Family Tour, and ate at some amazing restaurants! We appreciate not having to strip the beds or do extensive cleaning on our way out! We loved hanging out in the beautiful backyard and the kids loved chasing lizards!
April 2025 - Three couples from Kentucky. We have never stayed in a rental with more amenities than your home. You have thought of everything. The house is beautiful and well kept. We will definitely stay again! The little extra touches that you have are amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to see you next year!
March 2025 - Two retired couples plus one from New York. Thank you for sharing your rental home with us. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. We look forward to returning next February/March. The restaurants we liked were Rising Tide, Sage Bistro and the Cocoa Beach Ale House. They were all excellent places to eat. Thanks Again!
March 2025 - Family of four from Colorado. Our family of four had a wonderful visit to the Space Coast in your lovely beach cottage. We enjoyed beach time, a trip to St. Augustine, kayaking with manatees at Blue Springs State Park and toured the Kennedy Space Center. We had a wonderful time!
March 2025 - Three retired couples from Pennsylvania. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. We were very impressed with how organized your house is. We were very comfortable. Felt like home. Your home is so clean and accommodating and you are great hosts! We enjoyed your home and the local area.
Feb/March 2025 - Family of five from Minnesota. Thank you for the wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed the beach and our day trips to Universal Studios. Thank you so much for the heads up about the rocket launch; it was really cool! Our stay here really felt like a home away from home.
January 2025 - Family of six from Michigan. What can we say!! We had all the family here in a cozy, comfortable environment. Everyone enjoyed themselves. We ate, drank, and slept in comfort. We saw rocket launches! WOW! Great view and something for the grand children to remember. We are looking forward to returning. Thank you Lila and Dan for making this a home away from home!
November 2024 - Family of six from Georgia. We are grateful that you allowed us to enjoy your beautiful home. Everything was amazing. The location is convenient to everything. We enjoyed our stay. All essentials were provided and we loved the hospitality.
July/August 2024 - Family of five from Alabama. This was our first time visiting Cocoa Beach and we are so glad we did. This is a beautiful place to visit. This is a beautiful home and thank you for letting us stay. Our favorite restaurant was Coconuts On The Beach and The Fat Donkey has amazing ice cream. We visited a lot of different beaches during our stay. Thank you for your amazing home. We did not have to want for anything. 100% better than a hotel!

June 2024 - Family of six from Colorado. Thank you for welcoming us like family and opening up this lovely home. Nice and quiet, a lovely short walk to the beach. It was good to have a relatively "down" weekend before our cruise and Disney Vacation. Next time, maybe we will book for after Disney to wind down and relax before heading back to the real world. Getting to see the night SPACEX Falcon 9 launch from the beach was a highlight for us!.
May 2024 - Family of three from Illinois. We loved our stay and the local area. Your home was welcoming and cozy. The patio was perfect for early morning coffee. We also enjoyed access to beach gear. It was great not having to pack every little thing. The short walk to the beach was fantastic! We also booked and loved doing a kayak tour with A Day Away kayaking. Pier 62 was our go-to for food and cocktails. We are already discussing booking a return visit next year.
January/February 2024 - Family of four from Tennessee. We are grateful for the week we were blessed to come and stay here. The home is lovely. Very well stocked, clean, nice rugs on the tile floor. Kitchen and coffee maker are excellent. Bedrooms and mattresses are so comfy. Oh, now onto the yard....it is like a private tropical garden. We were out there almost everyday. So much peace and beauty. We grilled twice which was so nice. We saw two SPACECX launches. Magnificent! The beach is SO CLOSE! We enjoyed the beach several days.. Sun and sand were warm. We felt safe here and that is a super plus for us! We enjoyed the use of the washer and dryer. Neighbors are quiet, air is clean. We hope to come again next year!! Such a special home grown place!
January 2024 - Family of five from Tampa, Florida. Thankyou so much for letting us stay in your home. It was very comfortable and it was in an amazing location to visit the beach, Kennedy Space Center, and the Brevard County Zoo. Thankyou for informing us about the Falcon 9 rocket launch. Without that information, we would not have been able to see the launch.
November 2023 - Family of five from Seattle, Washington. Your house was just what we needed!

Location, hospitality, comfort

Dan and Lila were wonderful hosts. They have a beautiful home in the perfect location. The beach is in walking distance and the home has so many beach materials that we packed in the wagon and enjoyed using especially the beach toys for our children. There are family fun parks (Golf and Gator, Ziplining) within walking distance as well. Forgot something? If it is not already stocked at the home, shopping centers are less than a mile away. You can’t go wrong with this vacation home. We felt very welcomed by Mr. Dan and Mrs. Lila. We will definitely be coming back for another stay.

Home Away from Home

Our family was welcomed by Dan and Lila as if we were their family. Everything in the house was thoroughly explained during our personal tour. We were given plenty of tips about the area, including updates on a SpaceX Falcon 9 launch, which was a highlight for some of us. The beach is a short walk and tons of beach equipment was available to use. A great place to stay.

Excellent Vacation Property

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and enjoy our family vacation. Dan and Lila were wonderful hosts and thought of everything for their guests when it comes to relaxing and having fun. The house was very clean and each bedroom was comfortable and spacious. Our favorites were the beach accessories (umbrella, chairs, toys) and the wagon to bring it all to the beach, which was only a block away. One of our top vacation places and we hope to return soon!

Perfect size house, very clean and close to the beach

Dan and Lila are fantastic hosts. The house is extremely clean and well furnished. They even have it stocked with regular beach fare to use (chairs, umbrellas, etc). It’s also very nice to have a carport to pull your car into to keep it out of the hot sun. We will definitely rent again when we’re down in the area next.
