Heated Pool, Sleeps 21, 2 Kitchens, Custom Firepit, Outdoor Oasis, Near Beach

Hey there! Welcome to our swanky 8BR/5BA villa that can sleep 21 guests with a heated pool kept at a balmy 85 degrees all year round. Inside, we've got not one, but two fully-equipped kitchens for all your cooking adventures. Outside, there's a cool living space with—you guessed it—another kitchen, plus a living room, pergola, TV, and fireplace. We gave the whole place a full renovation in 2023, and it's just perfect for family/friend get-togethers here on our little Florida island.

Hmm, so what can I say about this home. Well, for one you're going to enjoy the stunning sunsets over the Indian River across the street from our home. It's such a peaceful way to close out the day. Also, if you love water activities, you're going to love our heated pool. It's good for a swim all year round! If that's not enough, world famous Cocoa Beach is a short 10-minute drive away.

This area is just filled with exciting stuff. You could take a boat tour to see the dolphins and manatees, visit the Kennedy Space Center, or just enjoy the Beach. After an adventurous day, return to our home and fire up the grill in our outdoor kitchen. It's a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal as the day winds down.

Our home is in a great location, ideal for strolling with a beautiful view of boats sailing by on the Indian River. It's also the perfect spot for watching NASA rocket launches or just catching a beautiful sunset. We're conveniently close to Route 520, so you can easily get to top attractions like Disney and Sea World without getting caught up in traffic.

Our location is also near some great beaches and local places like Cocoa Village and Brevard Zoo. If you're into golf, there are some amazing courses around here. Don't miss out on the Treetop Trek and Ulumay Wildlife Sanctuary too, they're definitely worth a visit.

To make it easier, we can provide a video walkthrough upon request. It really helps you feel the place before booking. Our home's design is quite something - wait until you see the first floor master bedroom with a private entry. We've also got a separate apartment above the garage with two beds, a bath, and, of course, its private entry. Those spaces are perfect if you have persnickety folks (teenagers in my family) who need some extra privacy.

There's more! Our home comes with a second kitchen aka a fully equipped butler's pantry, ideal for those big meal preparations. The second floor has another master bedroom, perfect for some quiet and comfort. And there's a breezeway with hanging chairs, just the place to chill out.

We tried to design our backyard to be like a luxury resort that we'd see on TV. There's a comfy outdoor living area with a TV, Custom Porch Swing Firepit, and a Hammock Hut. And, let's not forget about our year-round heated pool.

Pets are welcome for a pet fee of $50/night per pet. They're family too, right? Orlando's airport is about 50 miles away.

Oh and while the home can comfortably park 20 cars, please note we don't allow parties/events without prior approval and appropriate insurance riders.

We can't wait to welcome you to our sunny slice of Florida!

The neighborhood has whatever you're looking for. It's right in the heart of the Space Coast and Merritt Island - the back yard is the best place to watch the picturesque sunsets or the many rocket launches and recoveries from SpaceX, NASA, etc.. It's only a quick jaunt down 520 to get to Orlando/Disney/Sea World etc but you're not stuck living in that traffic when you are ready to go home.

The best beaches are in Cocoa Beach because they removed all of the rocks from the surf area, so take the extra 4 minutes in the car to get to Cocoa Beach if you plan on going in the water, your feet and shins will thank you.

The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet with plenty of space for walks, biking, or taking the kids and pets out for a spin.

Parking is always free and you can get around at any time with your personal car, or Uber/Lyft/etc are all available as well. It's also a very quiet and walkable neighborhood :-)

Ample Off-Street Parking, Perfect for avid anglers, adventurous families, and sun-loving friends, this home offers plenty of space for the entire group, as well as close proximity to the area’s best beaches, attractions, and shops.

Best House Ever
Timothy is the best, most trustworthy, honest man and the only one I will rent with in the further! House was exactly as described and clean. We came here for a men’s adult softball Worlds tournament and fit our whole team perfectly. Plus enough bathroom everyone could get ready at the same time. Huge plus for the ladies, haha! 2 kitchen and the most amazing back yard ever!

Cocoa beach vacay!
We had an amazing time and the house was so homey! Everything was well stocked, the pool felt amazing and kept the kids busy. We really enjoyed the back yard space to grill out and the next door neighbor was very friendly! Tim was very responsive and quick to address anything we asked. The house is very spacious and all the beds we’re comfortable. The shower and water pressure was great. All the appliances worked wonderful. No complaints at all and will definitely stay here again if we travel this way in the future! Thanks for sharing your wonderful home with us!

Great Stay!
Overall a very spacious house, I loved the big kitchen table where we spent most of our time. Lovely outside area with the pool and swings under the trees. Everything in the house is in working order, lots of towels and extra linen. The additional kitchen with a second fridge/freezer came in very handy (we were 15 people). The livingroom area is also very cozy, with a great flat-screen TV. We had a wonderful time.

We love this house!!!
We had an amazing time! The house is beautiful and has so much room! The pool was great, the backyard was huge and so relaxing! The beds were comfy, everything was clean and well stocked. It actually has 2 kitchens (both nice sized) which would be convenient if you have multiple families bringing food and/or cooking. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. From the get-go Tim was such a gracious host! He checked in with us several times to make sure we were enjoying our stay. My only regret is that I wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely be back, hopefully for a longer stay next time.
