About this rental
The second the door opens, your senses are greeted by the welcoming celebration of the beach! Instantly, you realize you’re in a special environment – one so carefully and soulfully created – that you want to bottle it to revisit again and again. You can’t stop smiling as you begin the journey of delightful discoveries awaiting you.
The designer kitchen; the colorful party atmosphere of “Florida Room”; the cool themed Surf Room and immersive Space Room; luxurious Primary Bedroom; then…the deck! Gravity chairs and cooler/tables. Idyllic launch-view location!
We have optimized space for maximum efficiency with fun and whimsical themes that provide constant joy and entertainment. The keen detailing throughout the house reflects ultimate thought-filled provision for the guests. Hospitality. Clean. Inviting. Easy. Convenient. Clever. Fun. Respite.
The heated saltwater pool with sunken lounges and fountain. The funky outdoor bathroom with fun and friendly features.
The fully equipped kitchen with designer appliances, custom dishes for kids, and, wait for it…..a coffee….bar! Regular? Espresso? Demitasse? Or teas?
Splendid eye-catching beach-themed graphics created by an amazing local muralist prompts head-scratching awe.
Anything you can possibly think of has already been thought of… and abundantly provided.
Beach & pool gear for adults and kids, more games to take to the beach with wagon, chairs, umbrellas, boogie & skim boards. Bring your surfboard or rent one from nearby vendors.
You won’t find a better location! We are East of Ridgewood (rare), on same block as the beach access. Mature landscaping throughout, sooo tropical! Enjoy views of the ocean and rocket launches from the upstairs balcony.
Feel the sea breeze from the screened in Florida room with new, upscale patio furniture. Large carport and circular driveway will accommodate 6 cars.
Walk on the beach about 1/2 a mile to the infamous Cocoa Beach Pier! Restaurants, shops and a cool beach vibe! So many restaurants to choose from.
Smart/Roku TV’s in all bedrooms, family room & game room. The space bedroom was a cosmos ceiling you won’t believe, turn on the star light and night for more coolness or go star gazing with the telescope. This room is a twin over queen bunk bed.
Surf room with local surf art from the community. Door to upstairs patio in this room and the primary bedroom. The surf room has a queen over full trundle bed. The primary room is simply elegant and oh that King size bed is so amazing and comfy. You will sleep so well and can hear the waves crash at night. We watched Artemis I launch from the upstairs patio, wow!
Great location, fifteen minutes to Kennedy Space Center, 40 minutes from Orlando airport, 45 minutes to Disney attractions. A great place to chill after exploring this amazing little slice of the earth. Rent boats or jet skis, charter fishing is a great day, take surf lessons or grab the gear from the house and enjoy the sunrises and sets, its gorgeous!
We hope you enjoy this inviting home, rest, relax, maybe do a little work, either way, you will be recharged after your stay. A bad day or surfing is better than a good day at work!
We hope to see you soon!

Unique Benefits
We love this location as it is East of Ridgeway (you want this), no need to cross busy streets to get to the beach. At the north end of Cocoa beach in a chill neighborhood, yet you are a couple miles from the downtown area. Knowing we could renovate and add a pool was key in our decision-making. You can hear the waves crash while having coffee poolside in the morning.
The character of the home made it easy to renovate with the beach traveler in mind. Plenty of room for outside and inside fun. Adding the game room with PlayStation 5 and 2 arcade games made it fun for kids of all ages.
The whimsical themed rooms with plenty of space makes this the perfect home away from home.
Why Kids Love It
At the beach in minutes! Fenced in pool for private family fun. Games, toys and books for the kids. Games are "kid" height for the little ones and gaming chairs for the "older" kids. Gaming chairs make for a great office chair too.
One guest stated that their 4-year old daughter woke up from the space room and told her Daddy, "I want to be an astronaut!" We've heard kids squeal when the doors open.
Parents feel safe letting the little ones roam about and allowing the older ones to go to the beach.
Disney, Sea World and all the attractions only 45 minutes away. Return to the bliss of the pool that lights up at night.

About the host: Hello! We have lived "Beachside" for 15 years and love our beautiful beach town. The serenity of the home, the ocean breeze, hearing the waves crash, what's not to love? My husband is U.S. Navy Submarine Master Chief (Ret) (from KY) and I am a Math Professor (from WI-Go Pack!).
We are always on the water, boating, long walks on the beach and my husband loves to surf. We welcome you to beautiful Cocoa Beach.
Why this property? When I saw this home, it was a diamond in the rough. Being at the north end of Cocoa Beach, a lot of locals did not know about this area. Quiet neighborhood but so close to everything, it was perfect!
I could visualize adding the pool, changing the flooring and kitchen. Theme each room in an open, inviting way.
As we progressed, we updated the FL room and added the game room portion. Adding doors that open to the pool area and that outside cedar bathroom, wow!
Plenty of room for beach gear and pool items. It is a special spot that we are excited to share with guests.
