Other items to note:
**Need to make a reservation for a check-in TODAY??? Please submit an Inquiry to your Host BEFORE DOING "INSTANT BOOK" if you are requesting a same-night check-in, as VRBO does not make that same-day booking option available on its calendar. However, your Host has the ability to send you an adjusted quote reflecting a same-night check-in for a last minute arrival. Easy~Peasy!
There is a default 4-night minimum on most stays throughout the year. (We will accept 1-3 night bookings to fill in shorter open windows on calendar between larger bookings. Our calendar is always updated to reflect shorter stay availability.)
*January-mid-March* we will honor stays up to 28 nights. Stays longer than 14 nights will be entitled to a discount. Please inquire with your host for a special quote before booking over 14 nights.
Our heated pool and jacuzzi hours are 9:30am-10:00pm throughout the year. (Note: Any necessary closure of the pool and/or jacuzzi due to cold winter temperatures or unforeseen mechanical failure or contamination is beyond the control of the Host, and would not entitle Guest to a cancellation or refund.)
Pets are not permitted at Unit #216.
Contactless check-in w/keypad lock.
Free parking.
Check-in: 4:00 pm; Check-out: 11:00 am. These hours are fairly firm, as Unit #216 is booked solid most of the year, meaning someone will likely be checking out the morning of your arrival, so housekeeping will arrive by 11:30 and will need adequate time to properly clean and sanitize the unit between guests. If you would like early check-in, ask your Host in advance, and she will notify you a few days out of your arrival date if early check-in is possible.
Booking Guest must be at least 25 years of age and one of the overnight Guests staying at the property during the reservation period. If the Booking Guest should depart early, leaving behind others in his/her party to check-out last, it is the Booking Guest's responsibility to see to it that those checking out last read the House Rules/Rental Agreement posted in the house and agree to adhere to the short check-out items listed, and the check-out time of 11:00 am. Housekeeping generally arrives by 11:15. If housekeeping arrives and guests have made no effort to depart with their belongings by 11:45, a late check-out fee of $60 will be incurred by the Booking Guest to cover an additional cleaner to help ready the unit before next guests arrive that afternoon.
Release and Liability: The Owner/Owner Representative will not be liable for any damage, illness or injury to Guest, or any other person or pet in their party, or loss or damage of any property, occurring on or in the premises, or in common areas.
Cancellation policy:
*100% refund if you cancel at least 30 days before check-in
*50% refund (minus the service fee) if you cancel atleast 14 days before check-in
*No refund if you cancel less than 14 days before check-in
Keep in mind that--except in the case of a local evacuation, an approaching hurricane, or an emergency order declaration--Guest will not be entitled to a refund should they choose to cancel or shorten their stay during the stay or within 14 days of the arrival date. The cancellation of an event at the Guest's destination (ballgames, rocket launches) or flight cancellation does not entitle Guest to a refund should they choose to cancel their reservation with us within 14 days of the arrival date. **YOUR HOST RECOMMENDS THAT ALL GUESTS PURCHASE TRAVEL INSURANCE TO COVER THEIR TRIP.**

Great space, clean and everything you need or forgot was possibly at the condo. Great location, my only disappointment was the views from the 2 balconies, one was a view to the other apartments and the other a parking lot view, perhaps I missed that in reading the description, but I truly wanted to sit and enjoy the view and just couldn’t..My personal preference.
Everything else was top notch.

I would definitely recommend this property.

This was our first visit to this resort and we were very impressed! The condo is spacious and decorated with a beach theme. It just feels like home! The best part is that Suzy, our host provided beach supplies, laundry and kitchen supplies! It’s those little things that meant the most! No running to the store to buy items that you can’t take home on a plane! We also loved having two balconies and easy beach access. We will definitely be back!
5.0
This was my 2nd year staying! Love the location, being right on the beach and close to so many great places to explore and endless options for great food. Also, the grocery store is very close. Suzy gave many recommendations for things to check out in the area. The place was clean and stocked with all your vacation needs. Can’t wait to come back again!

Great property. Only comment rugs should be cleaned

We booked this condo last minute after a change of plans. Suzy was very communicative and kind, and even emailed to let us know there was a rocket launch scheduled during our stay! We watched it on the beach, just steps from the condo and it was so awesome.
The property is easy to find, the grounds are well maintained. The condo is clean as a whistle, the beds are comfy (I'm VERY picky about beds), and the condo is just lovely. Very spacious, we did not feel cramped at all. There is everything you could possibly need, so be sure to check BEFORE going to the store! The neighbors were quiet, we heard no noise. I'd love to have had some curtains on the windows as well as the plantation shutters, the lights in the parking lot were VERY bright at night and lit up the room. If we need to rent a condo in the area again, we wouldn't hesitate to book this one, and we'd probably be sad if it wasn't available. Thank you for having us!

Everything is just as described. Condo is clean and is in a prime location with the beach just a few steps away. The unit is fully equipped with everything that you need. We will definitely be back!

Condo was super cleaned, stocked, and beautiful. Suzy was very nice and easy to get ahold of. Besides the construction, it was a perfect place. I would recommend this condo for anyone looking to stay at Cocoa Beach.

The condo was very clean and nicely decorated. Suzy provided linens, towels and many extras. We were there with family and friends for baseball tournaments. Our family and friends were very impressed, just as we were, with all that was provided with the rental.
We will definitely rent again if back in the area.
Suzy was easy to communicate with and provided so much information about the area.
We had a great time!

Everything was very clean and super comfortable. All of the people on the property were incredibly friendly. The location was perfect for us! Short drive or walkable to anything we needed for our stay. The owner, Suzy, was incredible! So friendly and provided lots of information and recommendations on things to do and fantastic restaurants to try! Florida Fresh Grill was our fav! This was our first trip to Cocoa Beach but certainly not our last!

The condo is in a perfect location, beachfront w/private access, close to shopping, popular restaurants, and local attractions. It was very clean and well-stocked. Lots of towels and blankets (which is not always the case at other rentals). kitchen had all the necessities and then some. Beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc. also provided. A great value!
5.0
This place was clean and spacious for 2 adults and 4 children! The beach was a short walk away. The boogie boards were a hit! We enjoyed days in the water and everything you need is close by. The host quickly responded to any questions. Hope to stay here again! Thank you Suzy!
4.0
The property was well stocked, nicely decorated and conveniently located with good beach access. The condo is located at the back of the community away from the beach so the balconies look out at parking lots.
The master bed/bedroom smelled of cigarette smoke. We are non smokers so we noticed it immediately when we arrived.
Property manager was responsive and accommodating.
5.0
This property is what we expected, very nice, clean, and in the area we wanted to stay. Nothing is perfect, but I would definitely look at this place as my first option if or when we make our way back to Cocoa Beach. Suzy(the owner), made things so easy for us that it felt like we were forgetting to do something. They had pretty much everything we needed there for a great week. Everything from sand toys to food condiments, she has thought about it all.
My wife and I are fairly picky when it comes to vacation homes, so I am confident that others will enjoy as much as we did.
5.0
Chill area in Cocoa. We loved the location of the condo, everything you need is close by. Beach access was amazing, nice spot to spend the day by the water. Couldn't really see the water from the balconies, so that was the only bummer. Appreciated the odd items in the kitchen. Thank you for renting this to us! Definitely would come back!

We had a wonderful time. This place has anything you can think of supplied in case you forgot. No need to go out to eat. The kitchen was setup just like if you were at home. Very clean. Suzy stayed in contact with us the whole time. We even got to watch the SpaceX Rocket as a surprise. Just a short skip and a jump out to the Cocoa Beach sands to melt your worries away.

Condo on the beach
We booked at the sandcastle because our softball team was staying there for a softball tournament. It was great to have the whole team together. Everything we needed was close friends, food and the beach. We finished our vacation at the Kennedy space center which is about 20 minutes away.

Spacious condo on the beach!
This condo was perfect for our family of 5! Ms. Suzy sent a very detailed message before arriving that helped lots with accessing everything and she was always easy to get in touch with if I had any questions. We loved our stay here!

Wonderful get away
Lovely beach condo. Great location!
A porch with a view of the Atlantic was a bonus.
Easy and clear, hassle-free check-in.
Owner paperwork is reasonable, not excessive like some we have had to endure of late.
We will be coming back!
