Perfect Little Cottage!
This was our third time staying in this cute little cottage! We absolutely love staying there and we will again in the fall! There was one thing that blew our minds though, and this is just a little reminder for folks that stay in the Melbourne area... There was a rocket launch and we didn't know what all the shaking and banging noises were at first! Then disappointed that we didn't see it! We love it there!

Comfortable small house for a getaway
The house was neat and clean, easy to access. We enjoyed everything about it with the exception of the missing river views. The listing indicating “outdoor dining” with river views was deceptive and was a big reason we chose the house. Our family enjoys dropping a kayak in the river in the evening, sitting out and watching the kids paddle around and despite requesting information about the suitability for this, there was no confirmation or denial that it would work. It turns out, you can’t see the river and going to the area pictured in the listing seems invasive to the home in the front of the property. It just wasn’t what we expected from the listing. Otherwise, the house was fine - clean, well stocked, and worked for sleeping. We enjoyed the beaches nearby.

Short time in Melbourne
Our arrival time was in the middle of the night, the owner had left the lights on making the home easy to find and feeling very comfortable. Home was decorated in a south Florida vibe that was fun and relaxing. Thank you Pedro

Hosts were very helpful
We had a problem partly through our stay (no fault of the host or property) and the host worked with us to find the perfect solution in a very timely and helpful manner. Greatly appreciated their help in making our stay perfect.

overnight stay - perfect
It is a cute little bungalow that fit our needs. We were in town for a single night and needed a place to bed down. The spot is great, just a block off the inter coastal and a block off US1. Plenty of eateries close by. We took in Aunt Loiuse's Italian place up the road a bit closer to our appointed destination...a new puppy we took home the next morning!!! It was clean and the hosts were very nice before and during the stay. I would definitely book again if the need arises. Thanks,
