We booked a condo through VRBO last year at Cocoa Beach at the Canaveral Towers in Cocoa Beach, a…read morevery nice place where we had stayed before. Unfortunately, we were contacted by Cocoa Beach rentals, who said they managed the room we rented, and they told us the owners were using the place we rented, and we could not go there for the days reserved. THEY TOLD MY WIFE WE WOULD BE ABLE TO STAY AT A PLACE NEARBY, AND SENT HER A CONTRACT TO SIGN 30 DAYS BEFORE WE WERE SCHEDULED TO ARRIVE. SHE SIGNED ELECTRONICALLY AND SENT IT BACK. THEN COVID HIT. SHE EMAILED THEM TO CANCEL, AS REQUIRED BY THE CONTRACT AND CANCELLED. I disputed the charge with my credit company, but Cocoa Beach LIED AND SAID WE DID NOT EMAIL so the credit company told us we had to pay, and they were acting in good faith. COCOA BEACH REFUSED TO REFUND OUR MONEY, BUT OFFERED AN EXTRA NIGHT, TO BE USED WITHIN A YEAR. So here we are this year staying in a place a couple miles down the beach, in a dated old condo. It's ok , but I would have never rented here. The place is old and worn, the bedroom in front is missing some of the slats in the blinds that might offer some privacy, the shower door came off the track and almost fell on me, some genius thinks it's ok to put rolling chairs on a hard tile floor, and god forbid we decide to cook steaks instead of going out for dinner, because there are only buter knives in the room. The other bedroom only has a couple missing slats, but the owners were at least frugal enough to recycle the old bad ones and flip them so they offer some privacy. There's more but I'm tired. I do not recommend dealing with Cocoa Beach Best at this time. Maybe our stay will improve. However, I did learn a valuable lesson about VRBO. Make sure you are dealing with an owner and not a rental company!

Every condo on property is a 2 BR 2 bath with a fully equipped kitchen, large balcony and washer/dryer. Room was very clean , beds were kind of hard not the most comfortable. Great water pressure in the showers (always a thing I look for when traveling). Mostly pros with this place but cons are - the smell inside the main lobby made me nauseous. They had these air fresheners on the walls pumping out a vanilla smelling scent that was overbearing and made me sick. The room had a chemical type Oder but I bring my own Lysol spray everywhere which took care of that smell. The bar was closed the entire time , not sure why. There were close enough bars surrounding the property. Overall I would stay here again for the value.

We stayed for 1 week - During August 2024. Upon checking in initially, we were disappointed due to…read moreno ocean side rooms being available despite requesting one from the beginning with our reservations. Otherwise , the hotel is aging. It was once top-notch - I am quite sure. Now, for the high price their charging it's definitely NOT worth the cost. Yes, all of the amenities are there. However, it's still showing visible signs of aging. It was quite a busy week to visit #CocoaBeach #Florida. We had never yet been to the East coast of Florida, yet we usually go to the Gulf coast, and we are spoiled by the clear-ish see thru water on the Gulf coast as well. Here, the waters are definitely NOT clear, nor is it really a swimming location. It's highly known for surfing ‍ and we didn't come to Florida to surf this year. The current is rocky and ruff. There's a high amount of sea weed floating all over the ocean from June 1 - 11 2024. No matter where you try to swim, you'll get entangled within the seaweed. We drove to Daytona Beach which is northeast of Cocoa Beach, by about 70 miles. There, the beaches were cleaned daily by the city & well maintained vs. Cocoa Beach, Florida, the beach sand was full of dead seaweed that wreaked of death literally. It was gross. Every morning, you'll see in my photos we'd wake up super early to find the beaches full of washed up seaweed & no one or no agency was cleaning it off nor removing it. This was the worst part. We ended up leaving 3 days early from our 7 day vacation to drive 200-250 miles to the Gulf Coast over to Clearwater, Florida. Regardless, we had to pay full price at hotels on the Gulf Coast side for 3 extra nights by leaving early as we had already paid in full to stay in Cocoa Beach for 1 solid week. We could not stand having a dirty, stinky beach with filthy violent waves crashing us into the broken shells on Cocoa Beach. We tried all of their parks and even the walkway. It did not get any better while on the East coast. We will never be back to visit this resort & I do not recommend the current going prices. It's way too expensive for the quality. Management was sorta in disarray. Might have been due to training not very polite workers. The maintenance man was kind otherwise no comment.

However, what it IS, is a place where all the rooms from the 4th to 8th floor have spectacular, unobstructed ocean front views. Two large balconies off the living room space and large bedroom. ** This is why we come here. We can lounge, eat, read, and enjoy the ocean from the balconies. There are two bedrooms, a living / dining room, kitchen, two bathrooms, and washer / dryer included. (Be advised) We use the back bedroom with two twin beds, tv, and closet as the place we store all our items because we feel it doesn't get enough a.c and is hot. Instead we bring a blow up mattress and have people sleep in the living room. It works out great.) It's easy access to the beach. The pier down the street is fun. There are cute restaurants here and there but it's a slow town, so don't look for fancy dining. If you are staying here, the pool and pool area isn't really impressive; nor is the attached tiki hut restaurant. But, they serve a need. I like to go to the pool during the "off" times to avoid the kids and crowds. The staff is old school and a little on the rugged side; not the "resort type" at all. lol However, I like them. They mean well and have been here forever. LIke us. We've been coming here since 1988. We know what it is and how we want to use it. So it works for us. But, if you are coming from across the states or international waters; you need to know what you are going to get.
