Perfect for our needs
Stayed here for a family event in Merritt Island, Florida and it was absolutely perfect. We were greeted with a kind note from the owner and a bottle of sparkling wine on the dining table. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean and neat. I enjoyed the small details like professional hair products (shampoo, conditioner) in the showers. We stayed a week. Conveniently located.

Perfect NASA Hub
We booked this house so that Family could all comfortably stay an extended weekend and head to Kennedy Space Center. This house was PERFECT. Exactly as described, easy and surprisingly quite location, near anything you would need, short drive to Kennedy Space Center and lots of room. That backyard went unexplored as it rained, but it was spacious. House was well stocked with everything you would expect and more. We plan to book here again when we travel back down to the area. 5 out of 5.

The owner goes over the top
We truly enjoyed our stay at the very well appointed hidden gem. The owner had decorated for the holidays and had so many extras throughout the house, which made it really fun. The house was clean, updated and had very comfortable beds. We will be back.

Perfect place for a family or couples
This was perfect for our small vacation on Merritt Island. It was so close to everything! Whether you needed something at the grocery store, the local Starbucks or midnight snack at a fast food joint, it was within a short walk and less than a minute drive. However, the house was pleasantly equipped with all the subtle details and necessities one could possibly think of. From extra shampoo, body wash, to hair gel and even butter! Most places are completely bare so you have to go out and buy EVERYTHING (even salt and pepper) to cook anything, but they even had spices which made it nice. Beds were comfortable and the area was quiet! Short distance to beaches, Kennedy Space Center and so much more. Would definitely recommend this place.
