We originally chose cocoa beach villas as our wedding venue because of its lush green landscape, well maintained property and beautiful oceanfront views. On November 3rd, we viewed the property to make sure everything was intact after hurricane Matthew and it was, we were so thankful. When we checked in on November 18th (one day before our actual wedding date) it was an entirely different story. All of the beautiful green shrubbery was chopped down (I'm assuming for an insurance claim? Possible insurance fraud?), there were huge piles of dog feces in the yard (we were told this property was a NO pet facility), and the windows of the property were so badly salt damaged/ just plain dirty it was apparent they hadn't been cleaned in a VERY long time. I emailed the owner immediately and shortly got a very unprofessional and rude phone call from Jeanne, informing me that the grounds were not her responsibility and there was absolutely nothing she was willing to do. Our wedding day was one of the most important days of our life and even though the owners of this property were unethical and rude we still managed to have an amazing wedding even though we had to pick up the dog feces ourselves, hand clean every window, and spend hundreds of more dollars than we intended on tulle, stakes, and string lights in attempt to make the property presentable. I would never recommend visiting this property. read more
