This is a brand new villa hotel on the south end of Cocoa Beach. Located right off the A1A, it's located on the west side of the island. So while you won't get the beautiful sunrise from the Atlantic, you'll get some great sunset views from the Banana River side. But you can walk across A1A and past Taco City to get to the ocean beachside. The place is still a work in progress since it was just opened but I really can't complain much about it; I really liked this place.
There are several bungalows to choose from. I stayed in one with a king-size bed and next door to the laundry room. Each room has an air conditioning/dehumidifier unit that you can control with a remote. The rooms are all pretty well insulated, so I only kept the dehumidifier on - I never turned on the A/C. The room stayed cool and dry, which made sleep very nice. The rooms also have a large LCD TV, desks, full-size refrigerator, microwave, and private bathrooms, so you have all the creature comforts. The VERY small armoire has a digital safe to store your valuables, but not much room to hang up clothes.
The laundry room has one washer and dryer and are brand new. Each load only costs about $1 or $1.50 (I can't remember), so very cheap and your clothes are guaranteed to be cleaned right, unlike a lot of major hotel laundry rooms, which consistently have maintenance issues with them.
I did have issues with the WiFi in my room and brought that to the attention of the management, so hopefully they've fixed that by now.
If you need a little exercise, there are canoes you can use for free on the private dock. I didn't have time to use them but wish I did.
The staff here is pretty much the owner and his family. All were very nice people who worked to make sure my stay was as pleasant as possible.
I'll definitely look to stay here again during my next trip. read more
